    So my E8400 is 8+ hours Prime95 small FFT stable at 3.33GHz (9x370) around 58-60C on stock cooler.

    CPU-Z seems to suggest my core voltage is fluctuating between 1.168 and 1.184, I'm using a GA-EP35-DS3L with F4 bios, which is known to have issues with voltage settings. In the bios it says the default CPU voltage is 1.225 (and I haven't touched the setting) so I'm confused about the CPU-Z report, which I guess indicates vdrop from reading the last few posts. I hope when I eventually flash it to F5 and voltage settings stick, I can bump it up to 1.200
