Interesting, I have the same board but have never needed a vcore of more than 1.25. I am going to follow this thread to see where it leads... I "could" try and set my vcore to more than 1.3, to see if the latest BIOS (which I have installed) fixes the issue, but I need sources saying that pumping 1.3+ volts into my CPU won't damage it. Get that for me and I'll post the results today on this thread for you to see.
