Stock volts are 1.35 CPU. I have not used it on air so I can't comment on it, but if you have had a Phenom II quad before, the temps are about the same.
Questions for 965 BE c3 owners

No, it's determined by the CPU. But, there have been a few C3 voltages we've seen. It seems there were some 1.425v C3's released early (we don't know why, either), but the stock voltage is supposed to be 1.375v, which is what mine is.

No.. I think Zeifer is right.. If 1.4v was the correct default voltage, then it would not ( could not ) be classed as 125w version. I have a 140w version sitting on my desk right now, and the letter "I" at the end of the part number denotes the 140w variant, whereas my 125w has the letter "M" at the end which is correct.
My C3 is weird. AOD reports 1.4v even tho i have it at 1.375 in BIOS, but CPU-Z reports 1.375.
BIOS will default to 1.4v.
Also, get this. I can OC it to 3.7Ghz at 1.375v, but i can't for the life of me go any higher even if i crank up the voltage.
I think a BIOS update is required and have sent a support ticket to Gigabyte in relation to this.

Well the reason I'm questioning this, is because my 7750 on my ASUS motherboard was 1.37/1.39 vcore stock, but my AII X3 is 1.425v stock on my Gigabyte mobo, yet people report lower stock voltages, and I KNOW the X3 uses less power and would use lower vcore than the 65nm 7750.
