Vcore Settings

Hey guys, looking for some more input here. Got a MSI Z270 Gaming Pro Carbon MB and a I7 7700k to use. I’m very new to OC and the works of PC gaming. I’m looking to undervolt a little bit to drop sime heat output. 

 

The vcore is currently set on auto and varies upon idle and load. Idle vcore is looking to be about .68v and about 31°c which is fairly warm for an idle. Under load with the auto setting it boosts the vcore to a decent 1.28v. Under this load in P95, I’m seeing temps around 80°c if not a little more due to fluctuations. 

 

I’m looking to stabilize these settings however possible. I’m not much of a geek when it comes to OC settings so any help would be awesome. Thank you!

1.28v

What's the core clock you're set to? And what cooler are you using?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

If you are running prime95 and topping out at 80C, that is not bad!  It could be better.  But while gaming, I highly doubt you will get 100% utilization on all cores so your temperatures will be much lower.

Almost everything in bios is set in auto. This is a very fresh setup and I’m a noob to all of this stuff. I’m running a H110i AIO.

I’m seeing a fluctuation in CS:GO around 69-77°. I have MSI Afterburner setup to monitor when I’m gaming but the temp fluctuates so much I can’t get a solid reading.

Oh, so you're just at stock settings? Seems fine I guess. If you want to reduce temps, you can reduce your voltage with some handy YouTube guides. Just take an overclock guide and don't do the part where they increase clock speed (unless you want to)
