What is VCore?

 

im getting spikes of it, it drops from a normal around 1.2, to .8

 

At the same time, 12v rail spikes up .1, and CPU tempspikes down a degree

 

Is this bad?
Im on a prime 95 load test, stock clocks

Vcore is simply the voltage, if it spikes down its normal, intel CPUs do that to save power, but if it does that during prime 95 then that isnt normal, might be throttling

Probably not, CPU temp is at 57 degrees.

 

Also, read editted post

Maybe the power phases and vrams are getting hot ?? put a fan on them and see what happens.

Good point, i beleive its my vrams that have no heatsink.

 

SHould i call off load test?

 

Motherboard tem,p is 58, cpu temp is 57, GPU temp is 66

What about your OC is it stable during the load ?

This is weird very weird, can't you use the BIOS to set the Vcore ???

What do you mean?

Probably, but i just have everything stock.

 

See the picture i posted, it has done that spike a total of 5 times, all the times with a increase in 12v rail and decrease in CPU temp.

I said it's weird because you are having spikes while not OCing and on stock, I did a stress test on my Athlon X2 II 245 OCed and my friends i3 4130 and no spikes at all, I would say try it but it at a consent voltage and see what happens.

I don't know my MB and my friend MB aren't the high quality either, try putting it at a constant vcore and see what happens.
