CPU Voltage & CPU VDDA Voltage

[IoNGeNeRaL]

Hey guys.

I am sort of confused as to why my BIOS has "CPU VDDA Voltage" and not "CPU Voltage". My BIOS version is 1102 (latest).

Any help?

The CPU VDDA Voltage seems to be unique to Asus and may have nothing to worry about. This artical from Overclockers have more info about this but is to do with your North bridge for nForce it seems.

Yeah, I have a problem with the Northbridge temp. It's at like 50'C at an Auto voltage. (2.4v I think) I found CPU Voltage. It was hiding under the setting "CPU & NB Voltage Mode", which was set to "Offset".

I was wondering this also.

OK, since I've been increasing the CPU VDDA Voltage (NB Voltage) could that be the reason why it's so hot? I mean, I've completely reset my CMOS settings, everything is running at stock speeds and stock voltage, but the NB is still too hot. The NB voltage is running at 2.4v, and CPU at 1.3v. I can't install fans on my sidepanel, since my CPUs Water Cooling radiator is attached to the back of the case as an exhaust fan. The Radiator is an Air In-Take.

I'd rarther not uninstall the Water Cooler since it took me 4 hours to install the Water pump onto the CPU itself. Instead of doing as the manual instructed, I manually removed the entire CPU socket from the motherboard (the brackets) and then put the pump into its own bracket then screwed it on since it wouldn't work the way it's intructed to.
