CPUID HW Monitor showing very high voltage

Aaron Robbins · Mar 10, 2015

The voltage in my BIOS for overclocking my AMD FX 6300 is set to 1.275V. CPUID shows anywhere between 1.728 and 1.824V. CPU-Z shows a normal 1.296V-1.368V. Not sure what's going on here. Is this normal?

It looks like it has a bug or an incompatibility with your system. Is it the latest released version of Hardware Manager?

Hardware manager is usually a good utility. What does your motherboard system monitor utility report?

Honest to god I didn't even think about that. Let me download and install the latest version and I'll report back ASAP

So my CPUID was version 1.22; the latest version is 1.26. Installed 1.26 and we are at CPU-Z's listed voltage. Much better. But still not the same as the bios. Is that normal?

I would use the information from your BIOS or motherboard manufacturer system monitoring utility as your best source. How much do they differ?

I personally haven't seen that problem. On my system the voltages are listed as nearly the same voltage.

I don't use EasyTune (Gigabyte monitor utility). I changed my voltage in the BIOS to 1.300V. HWMonitor and CPU-Z both say anywhere between 1.320V and 1.356V. It's small if you consider that difference small. I'll download EasyTune if you recommend I use that.

Downloaded EasyTune; voltage is the same as HWMonitor/CPU-Z (~1.332)
