It lets the cpu run a lot cooler when idle, but will also cause a

Hi,

Thanks for reply. That information is useful to know. At this point I have
CPU Disconnect enabled, CPU interface enabled, and all the spread options at
default.

The PC seemed stable at most lower Vcore settings, just that it made Prime95
fail very quickly. Anyway the 1.75v (11x200) setting seems to be running
nicely (so far!), been running torture test for nearly 12 hours flat. I
will let it run for a few days maybe before I am 100% satisfied (fingers
crossed)
