Am I frying my Duron?

Hello all.

I have an Duron 700 and a FIC AZ11 mobo.

I can not find anywhere in the BIOS that specifies the CPU core voltage.

Using Motherboard Monitor, however, it says that I'm running at 3.1 volts (!)

Does anyone have any idea what this means? Is this test reliable in any way?

Thank you.

The FIC board should auto detect the correct stock voltage for your chip and set it accordingly.
I think that MBM is incorrect in it's reporting the core voltage.
If it was truly at 3.1v, your chip would be dead, or in other words, it would be a SED (smoke emitting device)
