    The reason I ask, is because software reading can be very misleading.

    i.e. My C3 is prime95 stablewith 1.52v (CPU-Z), the other day I switched to another motherboard, exact same model and bios, and now the CPU is prime95 stable with 1.49v.

    The default voltage of the CPU on both motherboards also varied by 0.03v

    i.e.

    motherboard 1 default voltage = 1.40v (CPU-Z)
    motherboard 2 default voltage = 1.37v (CPU-Z)

    I need to get round to measuring the real vcore....
    no. I didn't measure with a dmm. I doubt I do that b/c it doesn't really matter that much to me to go poking around with my multimeter.

    What I was saying was that cpu-z reads what my bios reads pretty much.

    Thanks for explaining, you have a good CPU, just to know if its great, then real vcore would be good to know.

    We can only know tht by using a multimeter, but as you said, the rig is fine for all intents and purposes so no need to go poking arnd and
