    I don't have a case fan blowing in it, but I have an exhaust fan above it. Voltage is about 1.3v.

    You need both inlet and Exhausted fans in your case it help cooler air flow into case and warm air up out of case!!!! 
    Your Voltage is good

    Or did you check if there any thermal pads under the VRM Heatsink? Or not fit heatsink on motherboard properly?
