Need info for Pentium D EE 965

I need some info about the Pentium D EE 965 Presler (stepping C1) SL9AN.

I got this system/processor second hand and don't have the original box/docs. I need to know what the vcore setting for it is. My mobo (P5WD2-E P) is set on AUTO and so it is somewhere between 1.26v-1.36v depending on load and the Intel spec on the website says the VID voltage range is between 1.2000-1.3375v.

As far as I know the processor is being overvolted by the motherboard

Is there a adjustment in your BIOS for changing volts ??

Simple question I thought but I guess not. The VID range on the Intel page doesn't help.

What should the vcore be set to in the BIOS to get the correct voltage? "1.2000-1.3375v" i'm pretty sure isn't it.

That might be too low. I have a P5WD2-E P and it seems the vcore is always .05v higher than what I set it. I set it to 1.25v and it actually is 1.3v and 1.2v under load.
