Core Voltage too high

Hi,

I run an Athlon 1400C (AYHJA week 27) on my Epox 8K7A+. Therer are jumpers on the board to adjust the core voltage. When I assign the jumper for "CPU Default" Via HW shows 1.80V core voltage. However the CPU should run at 1.75V as default. I tryed this very CPU in a Abit KT7A RAID and it will even run stable at 1.65V (havn't tried any lower because I just wanted to make sure that the CPU is not the problem).
The processor runs at 1760 (176*10) stable in that System (with the 5V modification to the Mosfet Heatsinks).
Without the modification my voltages (at 1400 and all defaults) are as follows:

CPU Core: 1.8V
AGP: 1.55V
3.3V: 3.38V
5V: 5.03V
12V: 13.37V

When I apply the 5V mod my 5V line will get as high as 5.15V and all other will rise by an equeal amount. What can I do to get my CPU core voltage back to normal or below?

My CPU runs at 27° C when idle and with using VCool. 31°C without VCool.
 
The default for the 1.4 Ghz CPU is at 1.75v. Most mobo will add 0.05v to improve stability. Ur CPU is perfectly normal & so is ur mobo. If u wan, u can set teh vocre manually in the bios to 1.65v & c if the system will POST. If it doesn't, up the vcore.
