Voltages in CPUZ/PC Probe

[mykkk]

Hi guys,

Rig as per sig below.

Question is, can I trust the vcore readings in either of the above programs? I've overclocked my 6600 to 3.0ghz and set the voltage in bios to 1.2v.

Both CPUz and PCprobe are reporting the vcore as 1.15v.... either I've got an amazing chip or the readings are just plain wrong. Is it possible that the p5b deluxe undervolts by that much?? That can't be right can it?

my cpu-z reports the voltage as being lower than in the bios. at one point the bios was at 1.456 and cpu-z was saying 1.408. i am also trying to find out why coretemp and TAT dont tell me the same things as they are both supposed to read from the same thing lol.

i have heard of a few other people running low voltages though.

Same here with cpu-z voltage readings. Have pumped mine up to 1.27v and cpu-z is reporting 1.24v

Is there a more reliable method for vcore reading?

Ohhh and what is a safe level of V's with an artic freezer?

A multimeter

i have noticed this with mine too... except that the values in CPUZ and PCprobe read a bit higher that i have set mine in the bios.

at the end of the day. my machine runs fine, and the temps are good, so im not really worried about it

Yip the Asus P5B's undervolt by that much.
