I've set them manually and all is in line now. CPU-Z and PC-Probe voltage readings are quite accurate.
Obviously it's quite important to remember that Voltages set in BIOS as offset will increase vCore for example above CPUvid value. So setting in BIOS offset +0.1V results in 1.4V in case of my Phenom 1090T with Turbo enabled this brings total to 1.575V on poorly threaded loads. Asus TurboV will still show only 1.4V but CPU-Z and PC-Probe will reflect close to real value.

I'm on a 0707 BIOS BTW.
The Thubans work a little differently than the other AMD processors. Yes, using offset with Turbo mode enabled will create a situation where the voltages will increase above the offset limit. The reason for this is that even with C1E/CnQ disabled, the first CPU core still implements power saving features which will also explain why you will see the multiplier and voltages reduced in certain situations even with the PM features disabled.

It causes a few weird situations as you might imagine so having LLC enabled and setting CPU VID and CPU/NB Vid manually is the preferred solution. In regards to CPUZ and other utilities we are working with the authors to ensure each core is recognized properly in regards to voltages and multipliers. We are still working with AMD on some additional tuning and power management features as the latest AGESA code has some additional changes in it.

Hopefully I will be able to start an official thread on this board shortly and will be able to list this stuff and provide official support. We should have another BIOS release shortly and Auto settings will tighten up the voltages applied in these type of situations. At this point the voltages might seem a little high but it is to ensure stability on Core 1.
