I just decreased my stock voltage to 1.19v from 1.21v and my thermals went from ~90c to 70c! Did I mess up or did my tweaking really help that much.

My System Specs: (Short list) i7 4770k, GTX 780, many SSD's, a 2 TB HDD(deceased :( ), Corsair 650D. Full list: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/kchriz6097/saved/8dh7YJ


Upgrade Plan: Acquire some Black Noctuas then add 16 or 32GB of 2133MHz memory

You don't screw with the voltage :P.

Does it matter when your cpu temps are in the 90s :D

Stock voltage is 1.12v.....

My i7 decides that 1.21v should be enough for its power...

Brought it down to 65c by dropping the voltage to 1.185 :D Maybe I can overclock the core while undervolting it.

usually, once you determine the underclock value (i'm @ 1.025vCore 39muilti

with 50°/28°A 100% load stable) you will notice that AUTO voltage is a not-so

good thing. and the stock load voltage can support a 40 in most CPU(s).
