Hello everyone! I have a AMD Phenom x4 9600 Black Edition. The Vcore voltages should be either 1.10/1.15/1.20/1.25V. I have mine at 1.20 in the BIOs. Using the CPUID or any other hardware monitor, the Vcore voltage shows 1.54 Please advise

Did you configure your computer to auto-overclock? If so, it will likely automatically increase your voltage to cope with the increase of clocks.

What board are you using? If its ASUS board, it also tends to auto-overvolt the CPU. You should update the BIOS if you can.

------------------------------ Intel will not take the top spot, or probably the top 3 spot back for the forseeable future. Not even with 32nm and more cores will intel be able to beat Jaguar. - JennyH the AMDiot, Nov 2009

Also if you are over clocking you should disable your cpu functions like speed step and such; i dont know what it would be on AMD chips but you could find out easily enough by looking in the bios under CPU features/properties or other.
