setting the correct vcore

[JohnnyR]

I have a asus a88x pro with a a6 6400k

And I the bios I noticed that my vcore was at 1.456v at default. I thought that was too high so I disabled CPB mode and it brought my vcore down to 1.38v. By disabling CPB mode it wouldn't boost clock from 3.9 to 4.0 which is fine. So I looked up what my vcore should be at and I found out at default it should be at 1.2 with boost clock enabled. In the bios under cpu voltage it doesn't give me the option to set auto voltage. The only options are manual and offset mode. Can someone help with this.

im pretty sure the mobo will auto config it as every chip has it own default voltage depending on the quality im guessing high the default voltage worse the chip

So the mobo is giving the cpu a higher default voltage than is recommended by amd?

Yeah some CPU chips require higher voltage. its the chip lottery everyone talks about...bummer you got a dud.
