Guys,
Something very weird is happening with my CPU core voltage. I usually keep my CPU at 3.6Ghz, and it doesn't need any extra voltage. It has always done 3.6 Ghz at the stock voltage which is 1.200 Volts. This morning i spotted something weird. The CPU core voltage which usually stays at 1.2 Volts, as per Everest, was showing 1.3 volts :huh:.
So i installed fresh copies of CPU-Z and HWMonitor and checked with them individually. And both of them seemed to be telling the same thing. That the CPU was running at 1.3 Volts.
So i rebooted. Went into the BIOS and checked. The voltage selection was set to manual as always. FSB was set to 400, Multiplier was set to 9. Just the way I usually keep it. No changes whatsoever.
Unable to understand what was going on, I went into the PC Health section that displays all the temps and voltages in BIOS. Over there the voltage was being displayed as more than 1.2 Volts, as well. It was fluctuating between 1.24 and 1.28.
So I reset the BIOS to the default settings, thinking maybe it had something to do with it. I rebooted and went into the BIOS , and the same thing kept happening again and again. I even checked on the CPU features page to see if the EIST/Virtualization/C1E functions were disabled. They all were disabled, just like the way I keep them.
Having no clue as to why this was happening, I shut off my system for a while, and rebooted again. But it was still the same. I took some screenshots of this issue.
Any ideas why this is happening? Help please :ashamed:
