Re: Gigabyte MA785GM-US2H motherboard configuration

Yes, it's GA-MA785GM-US2H, AM2+DDR2 sorry the mistake, I based the
config on the MA785GPM-UD2H over internet so it's a replace error.
Similar motherboards also AM2+DDR2 are GA-MA785GPM-UD2H and
GA-MA785-UD2H. Their PCB is the same.

Seems difficult to get 3 values in BIOS, it stays almost all the time
in the lowest value. Will try to physically measure the voltage, but
can't promise.
