  1. Ever see a board that pushes 1.48V to a Phenom II CPU by *default*? I was scratching my head wondering why one machine got so hot... It happily runs at 1.36 now.

      Yeah I was hesitant to screw with this because I have never played with CPU voltages, but when another Phemon II box defaulted to 1.34V, my spidey sense started tingling. I know of the "10% rule in engineering", so I figured trying levels at or around 1.34 is good. (providing a bit more because this is a faster chip)

      I seriously suggest you get a good 3rd party cooler as those Ph-IIs can get toasting even on stock voltage.

      One thing I'm not clear on is Load Line Calibration. I know what it does, but options are "auto", "regular" and "extreme". I should read the fine manual.
