So I have been running experiments with each Newpac(BM1387) stick and its gekkoscience 7 port hub(fan is in port 1). When all 5 sticks are inserted they are in sequence starting at port 2.

I have test each sticks voltage settings all using port 2, on switching from 1 stick to next at times I get close to same voltage reading, but other times when inserting cold I am getting fluctuated readings.

- 1st round I was averaging around .4600v , 2 sticks did read @ .3860v & .4020v.
- cold on some voltage starts low around .2880v & stabilized @ .4000+v
- I am trying to adjust all to around .4500v across all

Questions:

1) Are these reading normal?  (Voltage differences when cold vs hot)

2) What is Normal Running voltage of chips? (Don't want to set too high and damage chips)

3) Should Voltages differ from port to port on hub?

Test Equipment:
     - Brymen BM867s @500,000 resolution on 5v reference device is 5.00301v.
