    it doesnt really affect us notebook users. CPU-z is mainly for desktops

    they need to improve notebook support

    It baffles me why CPU-Z versions up to 1.42 would dynamically read the CPU voltage so you could see it change with CPU load. The newer CPU-Zs read and report the maximum CPU voltage only. Perhaps they consider what I think is a bug is actually a feature.

    I can't remember what the other issue is with recent versions of CPU-Z which means that 1.40.5 is needed to correctly report some Santa Rosa features.

    Thanks for the info, as I will keep the older version on hand instead of discarding it for the newer one. :)
