You may need a new power supply. There are no user adjustable controls that I know of for you to set.

I still think you need a new power supply.

This is a core voltage we're talking about. Running it that low means something's not right.

Wait a little while for others to answer. I could be missing something.

If your power supply is insufficient to handle the requirements of your new system, you will find just such a problem as you describe.

I don't know what wattage your PS is currently, but I bet a beefier one would solve your problem.

Have you checked in the Bios for an adjustment?

What kind of voltage do you get with the power supply not plugged into the MB? If it is still below 3, then a call/email to the power supply provider would be in order.
