Nope, NF4 boards are 4v via a jumper, I've run my OCZ Gold BH5 at 3.6 volts before . 1.5-2-2-5 at 250 HMZ (DDR500).................

Thats insane but I though going past 3.7V is risky and you can damage your ram if you go anyhigher? Anyhow I prefer TCCD sticks

The higher you go, the higher the risks, same with everything I guess. I have been as high as 3.8, but it didn't help much with my rig. 3.6 seems to get all that there is to get,
To be 100% honest, I like my PGI turbo with TCCD much better also, I've gotten my fastest SuperPi using it...........

Nice job BIO!

I'm running my OCZ GOLD PC3200 BH-5 at 266mhz 3.4v.
I was a little afraid to push 250mhz at 3.6v to tell you the truth.

Mine was getting pretty warm till I made a special ram cooling fan bracket................. But going above 3.8 isn't something I would do everyday either.

Even better is that it's plexi & seethru, not stainless !

Yeah, I plan on just setting it and leaving it. Don't want my booster or ram to get too hot!
