But this can´t be only a FX phenomena because I had the same phenomena with my 1090T with both 0903 and 1003 bios.
For sure the CPU/NB voltage overshoot by a fair amout but there is a different with different CPU/NB LLC settings, not by much but there is.
I measure the following from the readouts points in the "ProbeIt" area with my DMM at different CPU/NB LLC settings.
Auto
Set in bios : 1,275
Idle : 1,290
Load : 1,315
Regular
Set in bios : 1,275
Idle : 1,290
Load : 1,315
High
Set in bios : 1,275
Idle : 1,295
Load : 1,320
Extreme
Set in bios : 1,275
Idle : 1,295
Load : 1,325
I can´t imagine that the voltage overshoot can be cured by switch to a new bios chip.
We have to wait and see when you get the new chip if it gets better or if they have done a change with the new 1102 bios version.
Cheers
Edit: I have also tried to get the turbo to work in OC mode but I haven´t fully got the grip on how it works, I have to fiddle some more with different settings, one thing I have notice is that the turbo works different before and after those schedule fixes.

I have the 1102 bios installed now and same thing. It seems that your CPU/NB LLC is working a lot better than mine. Doesnt matter what I set it too it increases voltge from 1.425v to 1.456 or even higher to like 1.462v no matter what I set the LLC to. Regular should actually allow the voltage to drop a little and high should allow a steady voltage maybe a little increase like what you showed and extreme should increase it about .05 at the most when under load. As you can see no matter what I set it at it always increases voltage like its set on extreme and thats what causing me not to get stable at high clocks of like 5+ghz.
As for the turbo, when enabled it should kick every once in while when needed. When I set to stock, it works just fine but when I overclock in bios and enable turbo it doesnt ever kick in. I have tried superpi and still nothing. I tried using AOD but it seems that it says on all the time when I do that and the windows color theme goes out too. I would like to be able to get it to work while overclocked because I should be able to get stable at 5Ghz for all 8 cores and tehn 5.2Ghz with turbo on 4 cores but it just wont work.
Also for the CPU LLC, it has changed since I have updated bios from 9921 to 1003 version. Regular should do that same and allow voltage to drop a little under load and high should hold steady at what voltage is set at and ultra high should increase voltage about .025v under load and extreme should increase voltage .05-.06v. But since 1003 and 1102 bios released settings high and ultra high are the same thing now and if you want voltage to increase while under load you have to go with extreme and for me the voltage increase for extreme is too much for my comfort. Ultra high is perfect for what I need but it no longer works correclty. I am hoping that all this is fixed with new bios chip. Thats what the guy told me the problem was and that it will fix it because the chip was fixed for BD. We'll see how it goes, I should get it early this week, monday or tuesday, hopefully. I seen on youtube another guys made a video doing same thing and when he got it the pins on it were all bent up because of shipping. I hope mines not like this when it arrives. Disappointing how some delivery guys just dont care about others property and throws it around like its a dodge ball. I will keep you guys updated.
Let me know how yours is working for you. Thanks for responding.
