What is considered a safe voltage for the northridge?

I can’t get all 4 memory sticks to work unless I up my NB to at least 1.4 volts and even then its not stable when running a torture test with Prime95. It gets an error and will either halt or restart the machine in about 10 minutes.

I tried running the memory at 4-4-4-12 at 2.2v as stated by Crucial but sadly no luck with stability. I don’t think this is an issue with memory though and more so with the motherboard. The memory was tested on another machine and ran fine without even needing to be at 2.2v. Memory timings and voltage have appeared to have no difference on stability so far.

I've updated to the latest bios just so you know.
 
woot, I found a solution and so far after running Orthos for an hour everything has been stable.

This seemed to work for me. Im still going to play around with a bit though.
 
so you set the values from OCZ ryder or did you remove the dimm from the one faulty slot ?
 
I set the values ryder mentioned except have the timings which I am going to mess around with.

Its running 100% stable now but im not happy with it.
