OnboardVoltageMeasurementModule
Users can use a multimeter to measure component voltages, including VRIN, VCORE, VRING, VIOD, VIOA,
VAXG, VSA, PCHV, and VDIMM. You can employ one of the following two ways to measure component
voltages.

Pin 1
OCTriggerSwitch(TGR):
This switch allows the overclockers to jump between low and extremely high frequencies in an instant. After remaining at
a low frequency during system boot and OS optimization, the overclocker can then engage the Trigger Switch to instantly
hit the target frequency, save their score submission, grab a screen shot, and watch the records tumble.
2: Safe frequency (using the lowest CPU ratio, which may vary by CPU)
1: Target frequency set in BIOS Setup or other overclocking application.
DirecttoBIOSButton(DTB):
This button helps users more easily to directly enter the BIOS at any time before rebooting the system. (Pressing this
button during the POST process allows you to immediately enter BIOS Setup. If the button is pressed after the POST
process, the system will enter BIOS Setup directly on next boot.)
Method I (Using the included voltage measurement cable):
Method II (Connecting the multimeter directly):
Steps:
Connect the included voltage measurement cable to a voltage
measurement header and your multimeter as shown. Please note
the red wire is the positive and must be connected to the pin 1
(Power).
Steps:
Connect the red lead of the multimeter to the pin 1 (Power) of
a voltage measurement point and the black lead to the pin 2
(ground).
