Epox reply about the "Vcore dropping at full load" issue with 4G4A+

[VOZ]

I've asked this question here a few days ago. I've been reading threads involving 4G4A+ since and it seems that all 4G4A+ have this problem. For those who don't know, here's an example:

when I set my Vcore to +0.275v in bios
it should read 1.775v
INSTEAD I get 1.80-1.82v in bios
1.76-1.78v in windows at idle
and about 1.70-1.71v only under load!!

I've emailed Epox and here's the reply:

Dear sir,

According Intel Pentium 4 CPU spec., the default Vcore voltage is the
maximum CPU voltage and the Vcore will be dropped if the loading is heavy.
It is normal. Please check the attached document.

Hope that helps

Thanks, but why didn't you post this in your own other thread about Vcore issues?
