Weird vCore on E6300

So I've been tweaking around on my new rig, and I've noticed something strange with the vCore...

When I set it to auto in the bios, it typically sits at around 1.38v.

I then manually set it to 1.325v and its now sitting at 1.264v.

Shouldn't auto have it at 1.325v? Is my monitoring program lying to me? I'm using the one that came with the Asus motherboard, though CPU-Z reports the same. What's going on here?
 
I have the same "problem" on my system. In the bios my voltage is set to 1.425 but in cpu-z it shows between 1.344-1.368... but everything is stable, ran prime for 12 hours all fine, load temps are ok.

When set to 1.375 in bios it don't go past 1.310 and one of my core was crashing in prime95 after 30 min.

Anything to worry about?
