OC suggestion on mem volt

ok so here is situation. Stable oc.....dont question it. i use a 10gb ramdisk. i usually encode saving the new file to ram drive. but i have an issue when doing lots of things with ram (other program, moving other files on ram drive, ect) it will crash when encoding. the reason i say encoding is b/c my comp is stressed to maximum.

i have adjusted mem volt, sa, ioa, iod volt, cache. but it doesn't seem to help. half the time it seems to make it worse. also tried to lower mem clock and that had no effect either. Without HT on i don't have the issue either. But same as the OC without HT on volt and everything else is much lower and the machine is not stressed as much.

From the clue that increasing voltage seems to make it worse: Does the VRM maintain at least 0.400 volts VCCIN above Vcore? Perhaps a higher loadline comp (LLC)?

I would also suggest 'fully manual mode' but does the Hero BIOS have that?

Any adaptive voltages, EIST etc that vary with load could be slow to speed up as the workload varies. Check CPU power management, power saving throttling, power decay mode and the like.

At extreme loads where HT on/off makes a difference, DIGI+ Power controls like current limits, phase control and duty control should be set to the highest or 'extreme' mode. Those go for CPU and RAM power.

Let me know if any of these work since they're off the cuff suggestions.
