Athlon X2 4400+ running a low voltage?

[freethrowtommy]

Hey guys,
I just built my system and I am running some dual Prime95 as we speak. Anyway, the voltage on my 4400 is only at 1.28. Is that a little low? It seems to be running fine. The temp of the core is only 43 degrees C. I am not sure if it is Asus Probe or what? I was going to get MBM but i am not sure what board to run under since the Premium isn't listed. Any help would be great! Thanks guys!

Specs:
4400+
Asus SLI-Premium
1GB Crucial Value (1x1GB)
6800 GT
Thermalright 120
120mm Panaflo

That's normal.

check the voltage in CPU-z (download latest version), the asus BIOS might not be updated to the latest BIOS .. is it ? ... MBM will not support the mobo you have as they stopped updating a while back...

for a single core i would say that voltage is average, but as it is a dual core i would presume that it would be higher but can not confirm ..

My voltage is also low, but more troubling...it's fluctuating like crazy! Check on your Asus whether the voltage is fluctuating and by how much, or whether it's simply low and consistent. Monitor it for a minute or more and see whether the voltage dips or increases and report the variance (if any).
