I want to measure my vcore to ensure what I'm actually getting. Never used one before but went out and bought one. I know the measure points on my DFI - NF4:
but the instructions that came with the meter are very limited. I think I have it set right but I want to be sure - anyone know?

looks like you have it set right. if you get a "-" you have the polarity backwards

you have it set right....
the other setting "V~" is for AC -> you have it set for DC

The DFI boards seem to do that.

Another measurement
Set BIOS reading = 1.450v x 110% (1.595v)
DMM reading = 1.62v at load and 1.59v at idle.
My tool only shows to the hundredths...
