Offset not working coffee lake

Go to solution Solved by T0MMEN,

So i got some help from mr done12many2, and the results are : 1.230v with adaptive, xmp enabled, LLC at 5, and temps are around 70-75c with stress testing programs.

When gaming temps dont seem to go over 65ish.

I dont think im gonna try to get this prosessor to 5ghz any time soon, have to wait for a bios update.

As you can see, core temp doesnt register the voltage, and when the cpu is at 800mhz, the voltage stays at 1.4 ?! Why is that ? also i set the offset to 0.360. The voltage shouldnt go higher than 1.38v ..... 

 

Please help, this new coffeelake "performance boost" is driving me crazy.

Post a picture of how it's set in BIOS

The offset setting you mean ?

Yes.  No sense in showing us your boot settings if you are having a voltage problem.  :D

I changed the offset from 0.360 to 0.335. Now the vcore is at 1.375

But i still dont understand why the voltage doesnt go down when the cpu downclocks itself... .:S

Good luck

 

 

now i changed the offset to 0.325 and the vcore is still at 1.375v...... Wtf is going on.....

In your original HWMonitor screenshot, your minimum was 0.7v with a max of 1.408v.  Voltage will continue to fluctuate from idle to load and in between as you use it.  

Yeah i know, but why doesnt cpu-z register that vcore drops ?

Because CPUz doesn't always report the correct value.  On some platforms it reports VID (programmed voltage curve from Intel) while on others it reports VCore (actual delivered voltage).  On others it doesn't work at all.  Do not use CPUz for voltage monitoring.

 

Do yourself a real favor and switch to HWInfo64 as it's one of the better monitoring software out there.  Takes a bit to customize it as you want, but it collect info from all sensors unlike HWMonitor and CPUz.

Yes, it does. CPU-Z over here shows 0.680V at idle for 8700K, for example.

Have you tried using something other than offset-mode for vcore? On the Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon, for example, there's adaptive vcore-mode, which lets vcore go up and down like one would expect it to, but offset - mode seems to lock the vcore down to a specific voltage.

I dont have the adaptive settings, this mobo only has manual, auto and offset. When i use Auto setting, the voltages go way above the skyes. And when i use Auto. core temp reports the correct voltages...

I think i have gotten real unlucky with my prosessor tho, i can bearly run 4.6 @ 1.25v

Ah, okay then. Well, I am not an experienced overclocker, so I don't have any useful advice to give, sorry. :/

Yeah, it happens. Some people apparently have gotten real lucky in the CPU-lottery, what with being able to run 8700K at 5GHz, 1.2V vcore. Me, I just built my boyfriend a gaming-PC/workstation last week and I can get the 8700K on it to 4.9GHz at 1.3V vcore -- anything less and it becomes unstable. Unlucky.

Im seriously considering using my RMA on this cpu and ordering a new one xD

Going through your post history, you seem to have had a couple/few problems with this set up, most of which can be attributed to things other than defective components.  

 

As far as overclocking, there are too many variables involved for you to effectively say that you got a bad chip (overclocking wise).  Consider updating your signature of profile to include all of your current components so that people can better help you with your problems.  

 

What cooler are you using?
