I was at work when I first erased this, but I'm home now, and my Vcore is definitely undervolting. Right now, I've got it at +.025 and it's still at 1.344V according to the Epox MB utility. What's the story here? I haven't had crashes or anything, but does this seem like it could pose a problem, especially when I try and overclock? My PSU should be fine...it's an Antec TruePower 550W, and it's been rock solid since I got it. Any ideas?

I have a 3000+ and a 9NDA3J, and I also have similiar undervolting. From my experience, you can go ahead and give it the volts to OC, or leave it as it is and run cool. At 1.408 Volt reading (set to +.100 in CMOS) I could OC to 267 x 9 and idle was 30C, 8 hour prime95 max heat load was 38C.

Right now I am reading 1.466v ( + .175v in CMOS) and am at 9x282. Overnight torture test load was 40C. Idle is still at 30C. Judging from the temps I'm seeing, I have to say that the voltage reading is accurate, and the board tends to undervolt.

Also, Zebo says this board tends to undervolt
