I have an a8n-sli DLX flashed with 1303 premium bios. I am having problems with my voltage at 1.5 and higher. The voltage fluctuates from 1.47 to 1.53+. The farther I bump up the voltage the higher the fluctuation. Tried flashing back to 1805's and experience the same problem.

I have looked over the board and all the caps are fine. My mosfet doesn't appear to be too hot. Due to the cooler and fan I have on the CPU I can not easily mount a fan to see if it will help alleviate the problem.

I have checked VR Zone but all I find is Vdimm and Vcore mods. Will the Vcore mod better regulate the voltage? If any one could point me to a vdroop mod I would much appreciate it. I have looked through numerous forums and posts on the A8n-sli series while this seems to be a common problem with the board I have not been able to find out if/how anyone fixed it.

A couple of posts point to a weak PSU but my PSU rails hold steady on full load, so that doesn't seem to be the problem. If anyone can give me some pointers that would be great. I can hold 2.73 stable all day long at 1.46v actual and the voltage stays stable but bumping from there it's all over the place.
 
Anyone got any Idea's? I'd really hate to buy a new PSU and find out that it's the board as I believe... Although, I really want the HX620....
