 | Only option I see is installing a more poweful fan. Everything is assembled correctly (i can know, i did it  ), so it's prolly a production error in either the mobo or the PSU. Try to increase cooling on the enermax PSU (there is a knob on the back, set it to high instead of low), if that doesn't work: install a more powerful fan. 1.85v and decent cooling (Thermalright AX7 == good cooling) won't kill your proc instantly, but I don't think it will do good on the long run...

| I would go into the Gigabyte forum/helpdesk/whatever to deal with this. 1.85V is 2 much when not OC'ing. Flash BIOS with newest version ? How high can you go btw ?

| I thought options in bios were: default, +5%, +7.5% and +10% (currently set to default) Current temps are 39°C with AX7 & cheap and silent temp-controlled fan. Not bad for 1.85vcore.
