In Everest the core voltage is clearly marked CPU Core on the Computer/Sensor page not to mention the OSD. If you don't see voltages or fans then you're using an older version.
Thanks as always..I was check the one closest to HS, not closet to cpu
the one in the pic is blocked by my storm and I can get to it...I will try again

the odd thing is everyone is reporting 1.5v..reads 1.48v....in my case it seems the vcore bios setting is lower than what bios reads(ie 1.525v=1.535v bios reading..so it seems my board is potentially overvolting)

Most have reported in the thread..better clocks at lower vcore on their cpu vs other boards...not for me..looks like badaxe2 need more vcore for same speeds

Gtj...if you set 333 ref freq..do you see 1333 strap in bios...if I do this I still see 1066 strap
