Re: G.Skill memory for EP45-UD3P
Vdrop is the difference in voltage set in the BIOS versus the voltage you see in CPU-Z.
Vdroop is the amount by which processor voltage "droops" when you load the CPU
It varies by motherboard, but usually the higher the voltages you set, the worse these two factors become, especially Vdroop. Load Line Calibration can virtually eliminate Vdroop, but often does nothing for Vdrop. Vdrop and Vdroop are both expected behaviours and are detailed in Intel spec sheets.
And 1.424v is absolutely nothing to worry about. If your temperatures are fine then that kind of voltage will not kill your CPU. Depending on cooling, 1.5-1.6v (high end air/water, up to phase change) would be fine.
