Hey i have a AMD PHenom II (X6) 1100T BE (Thuban)
Im running at default clock speed of 3311.17mhz however the voltage is at 1.4750 v which seems stupidly high for 3.3ghz. Should i set the voltage down lower? What should i set it to?

The 1.475v is used in turbo mode(3.7GHz), else it runs at 1.325v.

Ahhhh... Well i was playing around with how low it could go ;) and ive set it to 1.34V and because my motherboard has some weird offset the minumum during Prime 95 was 1.25 volts and the max was 1.40v. (I hear thats because my motherboard trys to actually keep it cooler at a higher CPU usage)
I did a prime test for 15 minutes and Cine CPU test and no BSOD or errors and it seems that when its at 100% cpu it sets the voltage to 1.26volts and when its at idle it sets it to around 1.33volts and sometimes even 1.40volts but it wont go over that which is weird but its just how this motherboard works O.o for some strange reason.
So basically it means it will idle a a lot higher than it should however during stress test it runs at a solid 57c in a 30C ambient which is around 49c in a normal room.
It seems fine currently.
But the tempetures on my CPU have gone down a LOT by around 8 degrees.

That's fuck all in terms of stress testing, you'll need to stress test for at least a few hours before you can say it's stable.

I believe that's Vdroop. [url]http://www.masterslair.com/vdroop-and-load-line-calibration-is-vdroop-really-bad/[/url]
