hi, i was looking in the bios and the vcore voltage says 1.325. when i open cpuz the vcore says 1.425. wondering whats going on with that. can anyone shed some light?
 
I think the information you are getting from your BIOS is very likely correct. The reading that you are getting from the program CPU-Z is very likely wrong.
 
Second that. I wouldn't rely on any software unless it's made specifically for your board. Quite often programs such as CPUz report inaccurate information (though CPUz is normally quite good...)

Why not check using Gigabyte's software and see how it compares.
 
I have noticed that as well, also when I manually set the voltage to say 1.45V in the BIOS, the BIOS hardware monitor shows it to be around 1.43V, and the same goes for the DRAM voltage. This has been the case on many of my motherboards, so I just trust the BIOS hardware monitor.
 
bios and cpuz not correlating is alright. I've had readings way off in both the bios and cpuz vs. real. Checked with a DMM.
