Bad Voltages

P5W DH Deluxe

Voltages are way off under the Hardware Monitor section of the bios.

VCore is larger than 3 volts
3.3 volts is higher than 5 volts
5 volts is higher than 6 volts
12 volts is over 13 volts

Was told by Asus Tech support a corrupted bios would cause this.
I flashed the bios to 2704, no errors during flash.
Boot fails with CPU over voltage even after setting bios to AUTO,
for CPU VCore.

This is the second board that I have received from Asus by RMA.
I sent my first board when the South Bridge went bad and would not
see my drives for Raid 0.
I received my first RMA and it had Capacitors that were bulged and leaking.
I sent it back, and have now received this board, with it's current troubles.
Additionally the board looks to have heat stress markings in the metal over the
North and South Bridge chips, and these get very hot in less than 45 seconds,
yes I timed it from power on.

This problem occurs with both of the PSU's I connected to the board,
a 500w PCPower silencer and a 610w PCPower silencer.

I would just like to ask anyone here if this is a typical experience.
As of right now, I am just not happy.

At this point I see no resolution the the cycle of send and receive of crap hardware
Does anyone have any ideas, and humor does count at this point.

bad psu dude!

you blow you chit up with those settings

bad readings ---> if you cpu voltage was 3v your cpu would turn off immeadiately and be fried and HOT!!!!!

Use the mobo as a frisbee and get a new Gigabyte mobo.

Unfortunately, Gigabyte isn't perfect either.

My asus p5K-E kills my GA-P35-DS3L in functionality, stability, and overall less kinks. I was not happy when gigabyte sent me a bugged bios...
