Max safe Vcore is 1.375-1.4v for 45nm chips. I've seen people running 45nm on 1.4V for a year and a half before the chip starts to die from the voltage. I tend to think that the true voltage being put into the chip is in the BIOS, not the reading from within Windows. I hope this answers your question
