Voltage Monitor

[dowop]

I just installed a X2 4200.
The voltage is set to 1.375 in Bios.
Asus probe reads the voltage at 1.39.
Speed fan shows it at 1.44.
Cpuz says 1.50.
Why the difference?

It's normal for the voltages to fluctuate a bit.

The voltage is not fluctuating that much.
It just reads differant in in the 3 monitors.
Why?
Which one do I beleive?
Thanks.

something is not right. is that latest cpuz?
See what bios reads (in bios) and compare it to other monitoring utilities in windows and choose the one closest to bios reading. but it appears that cpuz is the only one showing it w/ such large gap and the other 2 monitors off by 45mv. Asus overvolts by 50mv so you should see ~ 1.425v.

Ok,
Thanks

The only one solution is multimeter cos any monitor program shows anything.
I mention readings like yours that's why I don't care anymore.
If you don't know how to download here Guidemania both programs are also supported here at Ocforums.

Via chipset - no telling. I kinda' trust Probe II that I've got but I really can't say about Probe "I" ...
