hi , guys , I got a KT7A raid mobo, with a Tbird1.2 G. I set the core voltage as 1.75V in bios, but when I check it with the VIA hardware monitor, it says 1.85V, Which one is more reliable.
Thankyou men

it is prolly the fault of the via mobo monitor. Download the normal mobo monitor, and set it up. I found it much more accurate.

You will generally get a little more voltage then what you actually set it at. When I set mine at 1.85 it normally pumps about 1.9 volts into my cpu.
