hi guys..<BR>having just tried to get my pc faster by buying this new board, i have been having a few minor teething problems...<BR>when i have been using the board, it reckons for starters when i have the board running for about 10 minutes and having the voltage at about 1.725v, it tells me that its 60C on the cpu...<BR>also i had problems when trying to boot with corsair memory in the darn thing... fun really? no..<BR>im now trying to flash the bios so that i can get the thing working better (i hope) as i was reading in a forum (i believe it was this one) that certain boards are needing bios flashes for getting the cpu temperatures working properly..<BR>the pc im using at the moment is at its normal temp.. but i cant believe that the other board seems to be so hot, i didnt honestly think that the heatsink was that hot when i touched it... <BR>oh and whats vdd voltage? is that something to do with the chipset?<BR>also when display is very blocky and linely when i go into windows... the graphics card isnt overclocked and the agp voltage is up to 1.6v... is there something wrong with my graphics card as it was fine in the 8rda+ board i had just swapped it out of!! any one got any ideas?<BR>i shall hopefully get this working and then might be able to get on with a few tests!!<BR>any tips will be greatfull for and im hoping that it will work soon!!!
