On my System (BP6) I have 2 Celeron 400's installed, What is worrying me is recently the core voltage's have started to change
core 0 = 1.97 V = normal to my system
core 1 = 1.49 V = Lower than it used to be.
they used to be both about 1.95, anyone have any ideas of whats happening and If I shoudl start panicing yet?

Could mean that one or more components associated with voltage regulation for the CPU is failing. Look for bulging, discolored CPU voltage regulator capacitors or coils (inductors). The capacitors can also ooze electrolyte. Looks like brown or reddish-brown stuff around the capacitor. The CPU voltage regulation capacitors and coils are the ones that are around the CPU's. If you see components like this, replacing the failing components should correct your problem.

Could be that motherboard monitor or whatever you are using is reading the VTT voltage in core 1 instead of the actual core voltage. Mine does that, but I haven't fiddled with it yet to get the actual core voltage. Doesn't really bother me though because VTT is more important.
Check the voltages in the BIOS and see if the core voltages are correct. If they are, then you'll know it's just the VTT being reported.

Still kicking along with the Abit BP6
Same here. 1,5 V would be a little low for a Celeron, wouldn´t it;)loophole wrote:Could be that motherboard monitor or whatever you are using is reading the VTT voltage in core 1 instead of the actual core voltage.

BP6, RU BIOS, XP SP3, ACPI, 2x366@523(1,95V), Pentalpha HS + 1x 12cm fan @5V, 768MB, Powercolor Geforce 3, RTL8139D NIC, Terratec EWS64L, Samsung M40 80GB (2,5''), LiteOn CDRW
guys, on BP6 the second voltage you see on MBM is VTT voltage. if you wanna see the correct voltages for the cores then select voltage view from standart to BP6. then termistor 2 is for core 0 and termistor one is for core 1.
have fun guys, this have been noted already long time ago in MBM help file

look at my 2 threads
i noticed that problem before...but my voltages in the bios are the same as in MBM.
i did have 1.6v on the second cpu ... *grin*
no actually i should better cry about
