PC in progress...how am I doing?

[catnap1972]

Well, I finally have it to the point where I can turn it on and at least watch the temps in the BIOS (still lotsa work to be done). I just need some opinions on if I should change anything in the BIOS based on these readings that I have so far

(epox 8kta3, Enermax case w/350W PS, 1.2g T-Bird @ 12x100 w/CPC HS, 256 meg RAM, ATI Radeon 64M)

(voltages @ default settings for now):

VCORE: 1.82 V
AGP: 1.57V
3.3V: 3.42V
5V: 5.05V (is it normal for this to fluctuate slightly?)
12V: 12.60V

CPU temp (case open, no rear fan yet): <=39C
Case temp: <=32C

From what I've read, it seems like the VCORE is a wee bit too high, how much should I drop it, if at all?

If thats what your BIOS is auto detecting than i'd say leave it alone.. if its an option you have to change.. may want to bump it down to 1.75v which is the default, or maybe a bit lower than that if your running hot...

yeah, most motherboards add a little extra voltage for stablility reasons, so even though its set at default of 1.75 it reads higher
