I just confirmed the bogus voltages - as syl said this is a big deal, especially the Vpll - mine is at 1.84v when set to either Auto or 1.55v. I also have a Vmem bug where Auto = 2.05v (my lowly XMS ddr667 was really impressing me making it up to 950 with allegedly only 1.8v - now I get why when I would change Vmem from Auto to 1.85 or 1.9v I would BSOD on bootup).
Aside from smoking/degrading cpus and mobos, this makes overclocking a real challenge when you have the illusion of voltage controls. I wonder how many other models of Asus and/or other manufacturers suffer from this and why Asus lets it happen - their engineers can't be that out-to-lunch. Pretty f...ed up stuff, I am glad I read this - might be worth spreading the word and making a sticky post with this info...
