So the ASUS website mentions they put a limit in place to protect the motherboard and CPU (My R9 7950X). However, after the bios update it states it's using 1.350v. Did I misunderstand something?

Hi everyone I have a hard time finding a concrete answer to the above (title) question. Yes, I know a too high VCORE is not good, and if it's manual (static), then it's even worse (than if it's peaks voltages). After delidding my 8700K some time back, I then decided a week ago to try 4.7GHz ALL CORE on my current 0.095mV -Offset undervolt and everything is stable and my temps peaks at 77c on some cores after a heavy game session. I know this is already perfectly fine (temp wise) but I see VCORE peaks at 1.375-ish and I feel like my 8700K can do better than that. My guess is that 1.3V would be enough for 4.7GHz ALL CORE. I know my 8700K isn't a silicon lottery winner but I feel like 1.3V still would be enough for 4.7GHz ALL CORE with my 8700K. So now to the actual question: Does a manual (static) VCORE hurt the CPU in the long run? Would 1.3V manual VCORE kill my 8700K? (I know that no one knows the future, but what would you "guess") I have for a long time used -Offset undervolt, because it still keeps the voltages at auto - which lets it fluctuate and go down while idle - but it still peaks pretty high. Now, I have heard a lot of people talk about using LLC and so on and I have never really understood it properly, also the thing with disabling SVID support but that always made my system incredibly unstable. What has worked before was manual (static) VCORE and -Offset, and these I understand 100%. So yeah, sure, I could just try the manual (static) VCORE right now and so on but I fear that it might be bad in the long run - and it's hard to find a concrete answer to this. I'm thinking about VCORE up to 1.35V at max. Thank you to anyone who uses their time to read my post and so on -
I ran prime95’s blend mode after installing my pc in its new case and after 6 minutes after it said something about doing a continuous test before freezing at 66 temp. I then ran the small test and it freezes after 1-2 minutes followed by a bsod that followed whea uncontrollable error. It did not leave a crash dump. Is my pc broken? As far as I can tell it doesn’t crash me while playing an intensive game. I have an i7 8700 which vcore I have set to 1.2

Hello, So i want to overclock my rig, i7 11700k, z590i aorus ultra, 16 gb ddr4 3600 cl16 corsair, sf600 corsair psu. The problem is that my motherboard only saves the vcore value i type in(for example 1.35v) when i choose fixed mode or auto. On Adaptive or Override, no matter what i set vcore to, no matter what offsets i set (plus or minus), after i choose for example 5 ghz all core, the voltage is on 1.467v (in bios). What i want to achieve is adaptive overclock, with adaptive voltage and frequency in windows - when i do not need horsepower frequency and voltage is lower, when i start gaming or doing something - frequency rises and so the voltage I had previously z97 mobo and i7 5775c, and when i set adaptive mode there everything worked as i was expecting (like above) Any ideas? Maybe i need to enable or disable some kind of setting in bios for voltage to be what i typed in All power limits for cpu were disabled (i mean enabled, but i chose highest values like 488 or 4096 ad so on), -
Something tells me my CPU should not be hitting 100c with a noctua nh-u12s cooler. 13600kf running "stock" with XMP enabled, and ive had to manually set the voltage to 1.28 - cuz when i left it at stock the vcore was hitting 1.52v in hwinfo64 Im running the latest bios on my motherboard. But im not shure why this is happening.... Ive checked the thermalpaste and everything is fine there. Imgur of my hwinfo after 1 run of cr23 https://imgur.com/TamH46e

Hi recently built a new computer and first time overclocking a 9700k *edit* system specs if that help: windows 10 64bit, ripjaws v 3600 ddr4, 1070ti, 9700k at 5.0ghz *EDIT* 2: one core got up to 1.49v playing a game...no glitches and smooth, but scary to see hwmonitor say this I have put multiplier to 50 and set the settings I know off that keep the voltage/core clock from going down easily. Do you think that with an 'adaptive' voltage that these peaks of up to 1.48 are acceptable? (i hear anything over 1.45 is dangerous, but, this is adaptive for circumstances, so do i need to have it locked high at all times?) https://ibb.co/T4f5Hs1 I havent gotten the courage to try to fine tune this to the .1/.01 volts...because when i tried to overclock my ram, i had to reinstall windows(im noob), and didnt wnat to have to reinstall whole os in the process(so i just set multiplier to 50 and xmp my ramz -
I bought a new Gigabyte Z390 pro for my 8700k, previously I had a Asrock killer sli Z370 and had my cpu at 4.9 with 1.27v all cores, but since I swapped over to this board I cant seem to set the overclock back to what it was and infact no matter what I set my cpu ratio to and the voltage, It wont boot, I get BSOD even with 4.7 at 1.36v but If I set the board to auto on VCore it boots at any speed I've tried even up to 5.0ghz and CPU Z reports that at 5.0 Ghz it uses anywhere between 1.23-1.34v but if I try manually set the Vcore in the BIOS it wont boot, does anyone know what might be causing this?

I have an i5-6500. Is this much vcore fluctuation at idle normal? Sometimes the voltage is even higher in idle than at max load. Not overclocked but vcore is set to 1.3V since it was extremely low (lower than 1.1V). Anyway, if that's the issue I will set the voltage offset back to 0. No stability issues by the way, everything works fine. I just don't know if this is 1. normal 2. healthy for any parts of the PC.

I have just a few weeks ago bought an i7 7700k and so fare i have oc'ed it to 4.5 ghz on all cores 24/7 at 1.160 volt, after some days i have today lowered vcore to 1.140volt (from 1.150 to 1.140).I have tried google vcore at 4.5 ghz but im not shure what people have as lower limited to get an idea of what lowest vcore is.I found this review but im not shure where the limitied is http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/intel-kaby-lake-core-i7-7700k-i7-7700-i5-7600k-i5-7600,4870-12.html What is the lower vcore limited for an i7 7700k at 4.5ghz? -
Hello all, I have a strange thing when overclocking my CPU ... I have followed a lot of guides that all advice to set the Vcore to adaptive after finding the suitable voltage for your overclocking and I did but... the problem now is when I set the Vcore in bios to adaptive and set the value to 1.310V like in the picture below after saving the value and restarting/booting to windows and check with CPU-Z or hardware monitor the voltage goes up to 1.376v (spikes ) and run at stable 1,344v in benchmarks and load like apps and games (which is still higher than the set voltage in bios) this is my overclock settings I have tried some methods to try to limit these voltage spikes as I saw in some guides: 1-setting CPU load-line calibration to level 5 helped to reduce the spikes to 1,344v 2-IA AC load line and IA DC load line to 0.001 gave me random BSOD none of the above methods helped ... so is there anyone here overclocking kabylake CPU's and using adaptive voltage can help ?? using Asus Strix z270e with latest bios 9060

Im overclocking my CPU and i noticed a setting called vCore downgrade. I have a feeling that keeping this on Extreme was causing stability issues because its designed to maximise power efficiency. If i keep vCore downgrade on "None" this keeps the voltage at a constant value even when not under load whereas before it would adapt depending on CPU usage. Does keeping the CPU multiplier and voltage at a certain value damage the CPU if it is kept like that when not under load?

Hello! So this happened to me while trying to push my 4690k. http://prntscr.com/exdl73 One core seems to get more voltage compared to the others. I've set 1,280v in the bios. Did this happen to anyone? Haven't read about this yet... Edit: CPU-Z is always showing the highest value. Specs: ASUS Z97-AR, Latest BIOS - Windows 10 64 - 4690k @ 4,5 synced all cores, power-saving-features disabled and 1,280v (atm) - Temps under synt. load 60-70 max Thx!

Well been messing with overclocking for about two weeks now on and off to reset defaults and I think I finally fixed it here are photos from a 20 minute test I did twice. As well as the benchmark test which takes as long as it needs to my score was 1438. Is that good? Anyone know memory OC too? I'm looking in to that now as well how to set it up correctly as well. If my CPU is good to go at 5.0GHz As well I didn't touch anything but cpu multiplier and vcore and offset. How about this AVX offset I left it default which on my board (Z170 classified k) is 3. Vdroop fine on default? I'm new to overclocking & my first build. Just want to make sure I'm doing this Overclocking the right way. One question opening certain programs jumps my temp to 4(x)c sometimes 5(x)c from idle 32c. Is that normal? I use this PC for recording gameplay and editing videos and rendering which is the most reason I want 5.0Ghz so It'll be quicker than ever before. My old PC used to take 14 hours (that's right and true) to render an hour video. Photos of stress test today at 5.0GHz Vcore on auto with a offset of +75 temps never hitting over 70c. Yesterday at 4.8GHz hitting around 78c-83c with a lower Vcore (I thought this was quite weird) Tried again 5.0 at 1.335V though when testing 1.363 & 1.381 it said was the fluctuates of vcore for the temps for prime95 v26.6 test was 79c-80c. I say cause it passed the 640k test then was trying to do its 8k test temps went above 90c.

Hello Forum, So yeah, brand new build. i7 6700K with an H110i, everytime there's an inch of load on the CPU the fans on the rad spool up for a second and drops down to quiet mode again. I've heard that It could be an Vcore issue (Mine came in at 1.28v in the bios stock) I have now changed it down to 1.2v but no changes. Lower idle temps but still spooling up when I just open up the browser forexample. XMP Profile is enabled, CPU is running at stock clocks 4.00GHz, SpeedStep is off, Turbo is off, C-states are off. The Vcore is set on "adaptive" and the manual mode in bios doesn't seem to change that. Both in HWMonitor, Cpu-Z and Intels Tuning Tool the temps are bouncing around, as well as the Vcore, altering from 1.184 to 1.2 up to like 1.22. The fun part is that Vcore on the Intel tool is showing a whopping 1.37v on average, jumping from 1.34 to 1.39. (I'm using Corsair Link to alternate fan speeds and yes I know the software blows.) What is happening here, please help. I know that alot of people are having similar issues especially with the 6700K. Should I use Default BIOS settings for this one or? Thanks in advance -
Hi, can someone take a look at this and tell me why dafuq is "VID" doing at 1.4volts+?

Hello, long story short I just have overclocked my i5 6500 to 4.7ghz, it is pretty stable with one catch.. 1.43Vcore in bios and cpuz shows core voltage 1.44 and hwinfo shows between 1.432 lowest and 1.448 top. Idle temp is between 30-40C while web browsing. Temperature never went over 60C with corsair h115i in quiet mode. There was only one time for 65 C which was just a spike for a milisecond that is all, under heavy load with prime95 for two hours it did not go over 60C. Is there any risk frying to CPU with this temperature values ? Motherboard: MSI z170a gaming pro. PSU Zalman LX 600W

need help here why is my voltage for i7 so high????

Hi guys! I just bought the ROG crosshair 6 hero and i am having a problem with vcore readings. I have the cpu set at 38 multiplier on a manualy fixed 1.25 volts in the bios. The problem i am having is that the v core reading on hw monitor, cpu z, cam software shows only 0.6-0.62 volts on vcore (under idle and under load). Core vddp shows the 1.25v i set in the bios. The system is stable running occt for 2h. Is there any c6h owner here to tell me is this only a false reading or is this reading coming from another sensor
-
Hello guys, I saw on a few threads VID is the recommended guranteed voltage for said core frequency, does this mean the cores aren't getting as much as VID values report and instead what Vcore reads? If you have a 6700K tell me your oc settings just for me to compare please. Thanks

I'm now trying to OC it again but for some reason something is limiting my vcore to 1.36. I've tried of everything I could think of, including wiping and flashing a new BIOS; clearing CMOS; going back to previous BIOS versions; doing a clean boot on my PC; messing with LLC; making sure every voltage limiter was turned off that I know of including the hardware one on the motherboard; changing power settings; etc. Does anyone have any advice or has experienced this before? I'm not able to find anything online about it. Thanks!! -
I have an A10 7890k Godavari 2016 edition running in sync with a single stick of G.Skill F3-12800CL 10S-8GB-XL. I tried O.C.'ing to CPU V to 1.6V, VDDNB to 1.6250, APU Multiplier to 45 with Target DRAM Speed of 1466MHz (SPD 1666MHz)., Ram Voltage unchanged 1.5V as SPD.Rest all the options of DIGI+VRM are set to Default/Stock. IDK but there haven't been any significant improvements so far! My objective was to Stream 4k on youtube w/out lag. Is it possible on this apu?Also, I even increased the UMA Frame Buffer Size to 2G in BIOS and Forced the iGFX as my Primary Video Driver, but still none of the new frames added up to the overall fps in AAA Titles like GTA V(FPS remained 14-17 throughout the lowest possible settings).Moreover I've seen many threads here depicting that users are getting iGPU clock speeds of upto 1040 MHz while I'm always stuck at stock GPU mem and clock Speeds of 333 and 354 Mhz resp. ! ***!!?! Has it got to do with my single 8Gig stick memory that I'm getting only these speeds? Also I'm getting only 5.9 Gigs of total Memory (after inc. the UMA Frame Buffer Size).Idk what the heck of O.C. knowledge m i missing that I haven't been able to increase my system's performance at all. Pls explain me in detail how to O.C. accurately along with the accurate voltages. Well, firstly, tbh my system doesn't boot up at all when I crank up just a single step of DRAM Voltage to 1.65 V (neither my RAM supports going beyond 1600 MHz) and hence I m forced to throw it to the BIOS other wise the system won't boot properly anyway. So this goes for the RAM and yea I'm hoping to either sell it if you insist on 2400 or 2133 instead or get another stick of 1600 and then try O.C.'ing but I'm still pretty sure that as soon as I'd set them to 1.65V the system will crash again! To what max voltage can my CPU support for OC?What range should I set my nb, vddnb, and other voltages within for safe and reliable, crash-free OCing? [From the Voltage Table Below]: None of the voltage increment elements in the table helped me in oc rather my system isn't booting up at all after assigning those values (even tried changing vddnb to auto and other minor voltage increments in negative offset as u said)but it seems like my machine isn't ready for these negative offsets! As soon as i give positive increments the system starts perfectly.What could be the possible reason for this? Why isn't my system supporting these negative voltages for cpu and vddnb ( haven't touched NB and SB voltages yet)and neither does it support 1.65 V of DRAM Voltage ( I hate to keep it at 1.5V which is default always)What the heck is up? Pls explain me in detail.Here check my UEFI Bios Utility andI don't find anything relating to GFX Frequency setting. Aww man, it hurts not being a pro overclocker!!!!!!

When overclocking a Ryzen 5 1600X chip, should I disable Core Performance Boost setting in the BIOS (ASUS x370 Prime Pro)? I've set it up with offset mode and yet under load it regularly overvolts itself way past the setpoint judging by the hardware monitor. Even when using the negative offset it would stay at 1.406V and spike higher under load at 4GHz (standard setpoint is at 1.375 in the mobo). And in general, I'm having a difficult time controlling the VCore voltages. *almost* Regardless of what I set the VCore or the offset, the actual voltages in HW monitor will vary wildly depending on the stress test. It seems like the LLC levels control the voltage to a much higher degree than those settings, and for the most part result in heavy overvaulting. I've seen it go as high as 1.45 at Level 3 LLC with a VCORE in manual mode set to 1.381V (1 step above 1.375V). Is there a correct way of stabilising the VCore so it stays more or less consistent under load?

Hi Why is the voltage limit kicking in after some time? It's not too hot (under 60°C), the voltage limiter is just kicking in after a while. Also, the clock frequency drops from 2114 to 2101 MHz. But I don't see any reason for it? Why? The voltage thing in MSI Afterburner is set to +100. Greets, Andy

Hello everybody! 6 days ago I built my first PC, it all went fine and everything seems to be working except one thing...the CPU. The 3 components that I believe are important to be known in this case are: Asus Z170 Pro Gaming/Aura , Coolermaster Hyper X 212 Evo and i7-6700K When the PC was booted for the first time, I went to Bios and took a look around it, I immediately noticed high CPU Core Voltage of 1.328 V. For the past few days I've been helpless with searching the Net...Many mixed answers and other things that didn't help me much. My questions are: 1. What is the real stock core voltage of the i7-6700K?(I do know that not all the CPUs are the same and that some need higher/lower voltage to perform at certain speeds) 2. Could it be that the mobo itself usually sets higher than desired voltages? or it sets voltages according to CPUs needs? 3. My VID voltages go beyond 1.4V, is that another clue that the CPU might be bad? 4. I've tried undervolting it, soo far I've gone down to 1.180 V and it seems to be stable and temps are somewhat good(Stress tested with Intel XTU and AIDA64 Extreme, both tests were like an hour long) I've done that with the manual voltage mode, the problem is I don't want to keep it that voltage 24/7 but I'm really confused with how Adaptive Voltage really works soo what would be the solution here? 5. What's your advice on the whole situation? And that's it soo far...Excuse my faulty English, not a native speaker.

Hi! So I have been having insanely poor performance in a lot of games lately, Mostly Heroes of the storm where i am getting about 10fps or below just on start up. I contacted support for a bunch of different game companies and finally someone from blizzard was able to show me that my CPU was running at 0.700mhz when my cpu is 3.2ghz. I was told that it could be a setting in my bios or something that is making it run at this much lower speed. I have been poking around and cant seem to find anything that relates to this and i am just wondering if anyone would be able to help point me in the right direction or know what this is usually labeled as because i cant find anything. Any help is much appreciated. I have Intel i5-4460 3.2ghzWindows 10 64 bitXFX Radeon r9 280x8gb ddr3 corsair vengeance pro blackGigabyte GA-H81M-S2PV motherboardCooler Master GX II 650W
