On my Gigabyte P65-DS3, there is no obvious setting in the BIOS that tells me at what voltage the CPU is running at stock. All it says is "Default CPU Voltage: 1.32V" and I have options to adjust it up or down in a different section. Is that 1.32V a proprietary or average number they came up with or is it actually reading that my particular E6400 runs at 1.32V default?
I'm confused because once I get into Windows I have no way to tell what the voltage actually is as no single program gives an accurate reading as far as I know. When I look in EasyTune5, it says my voltage is 1.31V, so I don't know whether to believe that or the "Default CPU Voltage" and CPU-Z is just totally fracked on its voltage readings.
I basically just want to know exactly what voltage my CPU is getting if I've got it sitting at stock voltage on this DS3. Is it the BIOS default voltage reading or EasyTune's reading?
