    I have read the entire guide, and even downloaded the 64-bit version driver( even though I'm running 64-bit Windows 7). However, the damn program doesnt detect my CPU (P8700)! I have tried ticking "detect on startup", but it just doesnt recognize it! Because of that, do you guys think it safe to go ahead and start undervolting anyways? Does anyone else have this problem?


    Also, according to RM clock, I only have 4 "Normal" boxes and 2 other boxes (SuperLFM, IDA). Is this normal for other P8700 users? And my highest multipler is only 9.0x

    Same here. My P8600 is not identified, but undervolting works just fine.

    Keep in mind that the developers of this program stopped many months ago, before the P-series processors even existed.

    Can you or IaTa please tell me how many boxes you have to tick, not including IDA and Super FLM? Also, can you tell me what were your voltages? I am not sure mine is working at all, as my max temp doesnt seem to be changing, even though my 9x multiplier (highest one) is less then .8 volts!!!

    My max temp for my cores seem to be around 54-56, respectively
