Default OCCT Stable 1/2

Upped the voltage a tad and decided to make the push for 3.6 stable :)

well...that would all depend on what utility you wish to believe lol

I have it set at 1.575v but it reports it as 1.54v
Bios Monitor reports it as 1.53v
Everest reports it as 1.55v
CPUZ won't acknowledge it...
I simply keep increasing the voltage until it's stable so...meh, whatever works

Same thing here... And i suppose it would require a vdroop mod to get it to be accurate.

With my X6800 it needed 1.47v set in Bios to get 3.6Ghz stable. But in all windows based programs all would report about 1.44v ?!

Oh well, like you said... I just raised voltage until it was stable!

My general rule of thumb lately has been to just keep upping it until I get a 24/7 stability. As long as my chip isn't running ridiculously hot, I don't worry about it.
