Is my Vcore alright?

[MatrixVPR]

I have my computer Specs. listed below.
I'm not overclocked and my Vcore hangs out at around 1.616 mostly then drops to 1.5 and i herd this is bad? Also when log off My floppy goes nutz and it didn't used to? Any insight will be appreciated

i wouldn't worry about it
you can always change it in the bios, but if you can't then those voltages shouldn't hurt the cpu or make the system unstable

no soulkeeper he said it randomly drops to 1.5. Matrix, the only problem i would see is if it were dropping really near 1.5, and not 1.58 or anything like that. can you give us some decimal points?

Thank you guys, sorry that i didn't get back to you for so long hope some gets this!?
Vcore is going between as high as 1.616 and as low as 1.568. I tried to set the Vcore to 1.525, hoping that it would stay around that voltage but i didn't see a difference.

A cpu's voltage always drops when it is put under load. That's not the worst I've ever seen, but a good psu would keep it closer to spec. Maybe it's time for you to invest in a larger power supply.

its ok, i wouldnt go more the 1.65 for P4s

The thing is the Vcore is rated at NO CPU LOAD. Now this is not possible to detect the Vcore at no load since windows and whatever else is running. As the CPU is in IDLE, that is when the Vcore is its highest. When the CPU is under FULL LOAD, that is when it will be at its lowest. So the fluxuation is for the most part normal. But good regulators and whatnot will help keep it minimal.
