Incorrect voltage?

Hi guys,

I'm in the throws of setting up a new system at work and I'm not convinced my cpu is reading correctly - see below.

Those reading aren't right, are they? The vcore is being reported as 1.3v (ish) in the bios :(
 
When I had a C2D E8400, Cpu-z read the voltage at over 2.0v, which was plainly incorrect, though it did make my heart skip a beat when I seen it.

So yeah cpuz has been known to be inaccurate at times. I use Everest, thats always accurate for me.
 
Only thing I can think of is perhaps the sensors on that motherboard model are not well supported and it's reading the CPU PLL instead of core (PLL is usually 1.8V I think).
