Enermax 431wtt + A7V133: 1.85v is only 1.83?

...The title says it all kids, when I set my V Core to 1.85v, either w/ the jumpers or in BIOS, the BIOS hardware monitor only reports a voltage of 1.83, not 1.85v. From an overclocking standpoint, that really blows, that .02 could be just enough to go to the next highest setting. Any ideas on how to remedy, shy of voltage modding?

Kids? Huh :p

Anyway, not the PSU I expect. Usually the motherboard voltage regulator that will govern how high (or low) your voltages run. My 1.85V runs at 1.91V. One thing I have noticed, lowering the VIO voltage raises the vcore. If I bump my VIO to 3.4 my Vcore drops to 1.89V. Not much but still a drop. I think the default VIO on the Asus boards is 3.45V, see if you can drop it down to standard 3.3V, might have an affect on your Vcore...
