Hi, yesterday i was trying to set adaptive voltages on BIOS but i don't know what happened, the thing is when i restarted my PC the voltages went up to 1.52. Inmediatly i shutted down the PC and setted back the manual voltage i was using (1.315v).

My question here is: did that insane voltage degraded my CPU in that short period of time (1 minute aprox.)?

Nah I think you'll most likely be fine if it was only on for a short period and received no load of any kind. The thing is processors can handle higher voltages than what most people think, it's when they're under sustained load at high voltages with high amounts of current and heat running through them can things become dangerous. But yeah, if you were able to reset the voltage and it's running fine now it's probably good to go.
