unstable CPU VCORE in HWmonitor and MSI control center.....

herrmant · May 17, 2015

HW monitor, MSI control center, and cpu z all show my core voltage unstable...for example, the voltage goes anywere from 2.25 volts to 0 volts. AMD OD shows my voltage stable at 1.425 volts., the bios shows my voltage at 1. 385 volts stable. the voltage does not vary by load and my temps are great. Does anyone think this is a software misread or a problem with actual unstable voltage? No crashes lockups or bluescreens. System is not OC'ed.

AMD A8-3870k--temps 30* inle and 40-43* load
MSI a55m-p33
radeon r7 250
8 gb of ram...not that it would matter..

Thanks in advance.

AMD motherboard sensors are pretty crappy and hard to read. Especially FM2+ mobos. The bios reading will be more accurate than HWMonitor. And HWInfo usually works better than HWMonitor. For temps, it's often better just to use AMD Overdrive.

I would guess it is a software issue.

Many times running multiple monitoring software can cause issues as well.

In general the voltage should drop at idle. 2.25 would be very bad for the cpu and is unlikely.

Now it's displaying vcore at zero..i think at 2 volts the cpu would be burnt up or close to it. I am not going to worry about it and just ignore it. Thanks!
