My VID is 1.3.

@ 3.6 my BIOS Vcore is 1.537
cpuz idle is 1.504
cpuz load is 1.424

temps are 38c - 72c
idle - 100% load

Hextt: we don't care at all about software readings of your Vcore, only what you set through CMOS..

You're at 1.55v according to cpuz? Or is that what your bios is set at?

My BIOS is set at 1.55v. CPU-Z reports 1.36v. Everest says 1.34v.

So if your psu is anything like mine you're actually at 1.5v flat. Run cpuz and see what it is. I have mine at 1.51v actual, and 3.51ghz. 3.6ghz is stable for gaming for me, but prime95 reboot after about 10 minutes. Temps stayed good though
