I would say you can disregard that reading, as it's not the CPU VCore and it's not the video cards, etc... Another way you can check it is to go into the BIOS, and go into the Hardware Monitor section to see if any voltages are really high or red. |

Your vcore is the one you want to look at and that looks good at 1.4 if that is the reading while you had fah going.
idle vcore does not matter, we are looking for vcore when the cpu is under load. |

Thanks, Was just wondering what the VIN6 was and why it was always the same. This is all new to me and am trying to learn as I go. Thanks again, pos

Not sure I think that is the qpi voltage, but I'm just guessing here.

pos, you asked how to get into Bios? Not sure if that was answered.
Hold down DEL key while booting. Asus EFI Bios pops up. The Bios EZ screen shows the voltages Alex mentioned to the board. Or, go to Advanced screen, upper right tab, and go to Monitor tab to see what's happening. Tons of info in here to see. To Exit, hit Esc or Exit in upper right, select 'Discard changes and Exit' in case you messed with something inadvertantly. Pretty tough to mess things up. Enjoy
