UltraII-M2 SG read lower voltage...?

[hpteh]

Hi all,

 

Need advise on a issue of DFI Infinity UltraII-M2 board, does anyone has this problem of Smart Guardian showing lower voltage than the one set in the BIOS?

 

For example, If the CPU voltage set at 1.35v or 1.45v etc, it could never go pass 1.33v or 1.43v etc as shown in Smart Guardian, even running Prime at full load, the voltage shown at least 0.01v lower than the one set in the BIOS. :confused:

 

Same goes with DRAM voltage, Smart Guardian always shown at least 0.1v lower no matter what I set in the BIOS or even running Prime...

 

As I know, most board monitoring tool normally shown same or higher voltage than the one set in the BIOS, sometimes even higher when running Prime on full load...

 

The symtom is kind of like the board could not accept full voltage..? Or it's just a minor Smart Guardian reporting error..? :confused:

 

Appreciate any advise and thanks in advance.

I set Vcore @1.375v in BIOS, and in Windows SmartGuardian shows it beetween 1.37v idle, and 1.39v full load -and stable at that point, no fluctuation whatsoever on the afromentioned condition.

 

Chipset @stock, shows 1.49v in windows.

 

Vdimm @2.2v, shows 2.16v in windows. @ stock, shows 1.79v, @2v shows 1.96v, @2.1v shows 2.04v

Very seldom if ever is software correct unless calibrated against a DMM.

So this should be normal I presume... I was worried about whether I got a bad board or something...

 

Thanks.
