Decided to boot up OpenHardwareMonitor to check my temperatures (it's colder today so I thought I'd check if I'm above or below my average of 68-70C while folding) and noticed something odd.

I'm below average (62C) but it doesn't report my CPU voltages anymore.

I'm on 0.9.6 (was using 0.9.5), but neither report it.

So I grabbed HWiNFO64, and it said something even stranger.

1.094V.

Now, I run my 3600 at 4.3GHz 1.45V.

And it's not possible for me to get 4.3GHz at 1.069V because I can't get 4.3GHz at 1.35V.

So I closed HWiNFO64, and checked each one again.

Same thing - OpenHardwareMonitor says nothing, HWiNFO64 says 1.096V (almost nice), within the margin of error.

Any ideas what could be causing the voltage mis/absence-of-read?

 

EDIT:
Yes, I realize I could go into the BIOS and check to see what it reports there, but it's a pain to restart my system since I have to combine and then separate my Chrome instances.

PLEASE STOP [Killing] ME I WILL GIVE Y OU ANOTHER DEAL.
