VIO allows you to select the voltage supplied to the DRAM, chipset, AGP, PCI,
and the CPU’s I/O buffer. The default voltage (3.56V) should be used unless
processor overclocking requires a higher voltage.

sult in the shortening of your computer component’s life. It is strongly recom-
mended that you leave this setting on its default.
