6600k 4.7Ghz at 1.145V. What is happening here.

I overclocked my 6600k Solidworks computer for work to 4.7Ghz and 1.325 on my EVGA motherboard (override mode, adaptive won't boot for some reason at any voltage).

 

I pulled up hw monitor and cpu-z and they have 1.145V and .944V respectively when running realbench.

 

What's going on here?

You can be pretty sure those readings are wrong.

cpu z and hwmonitor are reading wrong voltages for skylake and haswell-e at the moment

Never head about this or seen it, HWmonitor & CPU-Z read my voltages perfectly fine.

Hmm, EVGA E-leet is showing 2.14 Vcore. Pretty sure that's not right.

Interesting. My board is an MSI. I have a friend with an ASUS and the same CPU so I'll check with him.

I'm really curious to see what his asus deluxe is reporting. Thanks for the heads up.

 

Either way it's still a great motherboard anyway.. :P

So my friend's ASUS deluxe reports 1.1V in CPU-Z when it's actually 1.3V. HWMonitor shows the correct voltage however lol.

 

Funny stuff.

cpu z and hwmonitor are reading wrong voltages for skylake and haswell-e at the moment

 

Clarify this statement for me... how can a voltage program suddenly read wrong knowing the the same technique is usualy used exactly the same on all components to read the actual output. Are you sure we are not being scammed with overal false readings by companies that might be bribed to do so? I mean... there are rumors that even GPU companies have scammed with drivers... In my own country for example... brands like Ford have recently come under fire because they had a driver updated into all the cars to read less emission then the cars REALY output (wich was way higher). Big companies are known for their scamming.. believe me.. I've dealth with some merchants so I have an idea what they pull on people. I'm very weary about big companies right now..

Just look at 4k Tv's for example... not 4k at all... just 1080p being upscaled... and we always pay more for gimmick technoligies that make it seem as if we are getting something better. No one ever asks why longevity of producs seem to be decreasing over the years... Where a tv would last 30 years, it now lasts 7-15 at the most.

Thats what you get when you "OC" hardware with options not healthy for the hardware. But in the end, someone ends up selling more products...
