Leggendo la recensione di anandtech, ho estrapolato questo passagio:
Quote:
With that, we can finally see how this consideration comes full circle - the lower the TRD, the higher the memory read performance and vice versa. This change in TRD also drives vMCH, with lower values requiring substantially more voltage than the more "relaxed" (higher) values. We were able to push our ASUS Rampage Formula to a very impressive 450MHz FSB using a tRD of 5, which correlates to a TRD of about 11.1 ns. Because this required about 1.60V vMCH, for all intents and purposes we would consider this to be the practical limit of scaling, at least with conventional cooling. Above this voltage, we find that the X48 quickly turns into a little furnace during periods of prolonged load. Our recommendation is the liberal use of extra cooling capacity if you feel the need to push any further.

Ma il vMCH di cui parla, cos'è? Il Voltaggio dell'X48?

Se così fosse, anche anandtech non mi sembra così preoccupato per quella soglia di voltaggio. Dice solo di tenere una ventola a portata di mano perchè altrimenti il chipset diventa una fornace
