Incorrect VCore?

[cessna152]

I have an Epox 8rda3+. In the BIOS I set the VCore to 1.75V but CPU-Z reports my VCore as 1.61V. Who should I believe? Is my motherboard undervolting or something?

it is not possible for the BIOS to undervolt that much. usually, the MOST they can undervolt is about .03V. also, i believe most epox boards overvolt rather than undervolt. try motherboard monitor 5 for another voltage reading

Chipset Voltage.

Not CPU

Ok. MBM reports the VCore at 1.71V then. That makes more sense.
