vcore doesn't change
During overclocking my FX 8320, after failing stability tests and trying to boost vcore, I found none of the tools I used—like HWMonitor, CPU-Z, AMD Overdrive, or OCCT—showed any rise in core voltage. The motherboard model is Asus M5A97 R2.0.
This board features a 4+2 power phase design which is completely unsuitable for overclocking an FX 8320. Ignore it. It's best if your CPU performs adequately at stock speed without throttling. You might manage to reach the 8350 level without raising the voltage, but that's essentially the limit.

That board is a 4+2 power phase design and completely unsuitable for overclocking an fx 8320. Just be sure your CPU runs smoothly at stock settings without throttling. You might consider pushing it to the 8350 level without raising the voltage, though that's limited.

That board is a 4+2 power phase design and completely unsuitable for overclocking an fx 8320. Ignore it. Just hope your CPU runs smoothly at stock speed without throttling. In fact, you might manage to reach 8350 levels without raising the voltage, but that's all. The voltages might be inaccurately reported, but regardless, stable overclocking isn't possible on this board. I suggested trying 8350 frequencies but not increasing the voltage—it can barely handle the standard 125W.
That board is a 4+2 power phase design and completely unsuitable for overclocking an fx 8320. Ignore it. Just hope your CPU runs smoothly at stock speed without throttling. You might attempt to push it to 8350 without raising the voltage, but that's unlikely to work. Voltage levels remain unchanged since the board is 4+2 power phase. Those voltages could be inaccurately reported, but regardless, stable overclocking isn't possible here. It's stable at 3.9, not 4.0. Thanks.
