I recently built an A64 3000 system with an MSI K8T Neo motherboard, and I'm using the Core Center app that came with the board to monitor the chip speeds/temp etc. I updated the drivers on the board and am now seeing the Vcore is at 1.550 volts with a red background like it is trying to alert me to something. Is this normal? Is 1.550v anything to be concerned about? My chip runs at 2Ghz at around 38-42C degrees.

Thanks.

seeing that your using the core center, id really advise you not to use the auto overclock feature. it fried my motherboard and i had to rma it. i got it back pretty quickly but i havent been able to install it yet so i dont know if everything else is still working. im not sure if it was just that particular board but still be careful.
