its more power savings, for full 3d clocks , like for stock clocks it goes to .987 then drops down to .962 , i believe , they only reason why the have upper voltage is to safely transit from going from 135 or 450 mhz to 716 or whater your clocks are set at, then after it detects that card doesn't have any faults occurring or issues then it drops down to the lower voltage. your card should show the same behavior i believe, my card did. so that is why it goes from 1.050 then drops to 1.020. well it seems like sv7 increase the drop voltage, i think however it is still completely normal thing to happen also discussed earlier in the thread.

I fully understand this safe voltages. My stock voltage is 1.0120(With Stock BIOS, as I remember). So why under 100% GPU load voltage is 1.0120 insted of 1.05. I saw only 1.05 when 3DMark was loading.

Edit: May be slv7 changed power-save voltage insted of 100% use voltage

Edit2: Made another test in Medal of Honor Warfighter. While i was in menu voltage was 1.05. When game started voltage is 1.0120.

and svl7 is ignoring my posts for second day..........................

Ok, why I durung 3D Tests in 3DMark11 have voltage 1.0120 insted of 1.05 or 1.025, I didn't got any raise of the performance from non-ov bios. Cause in OV BIOS voltage is stock. I'm not the only one who have this problem.

For you guys that are asking about voltage drops, what CPU are you guys running? If you have an XM CPU that is overclocked with bumped up voltage and amps settings, you my might try lowering your CPU overclock. Under load, the CPU can draw enough power that your GPU is getting starved. Your AC adapter might not have enough output to overclock the daylights out of both processors. In 3DMark11 test #1 this problem becomes very apparent and you don't need an overclocked CPU to get excellent results in test #1. But, you need all the horsepower your CPU can muster to do well in the 3DMark11 Physics and Combined Tests.

I didn't OC my CPU, I have stock CPU

@svl7

What do you think about voltage problem?

I flashed 1.05 MSI BIOS. When 3DMark 11 is loading voltage is 1.05, when test is started voltage is 1.0120.

What about MSI 1.05v and 1.025v mods vBIOS? Can't wait to try it.

Try recovering windows from recovery partition

And what about GT780DX? Can i upgrade GPU there?

Xonar is right Ivy Bridge processor will not work on Sandy Bridge motherboard

Well, been searching in the forum and no one has the link for the original BIOS.

I think I have to contact the MSI And I hope this isn't hardware problem.

Thank you Suoah for helping me out

I also would like to ask Xonar if has anyone had this problem before, thank you

Edit : I got an unlocked MSI GT70 ONE bios in NBR that finally solved my problem

What is NBR?

I choose 680m for much better Overclocking potential. And Phisix

can I use Clevo OV BIOS on MSI gtx680m?
