The Voltage on my old board was 1.2V when at 4.6 GHz. This Mobo just bumps it up to 1.7 at stock speeds.

yah i looked at my CPU-Z install just and realised i said wrong, and you are sure that its not reading 1.17whatever ? download HWINFO and check that too, that generally picks up sensors better, i guess its possible that CPU-Z picked up on the wrong sensor i guess

So I had to get a new motherboard due to my corsair cooler bursting inside of my case and the motherboard just dying after working 24h after that.

 

I got a MSI H81M-E33 and paired it with my 4790K cpu which was in the old mobo.

 

The Voltage is currently sitting at 1.792V in CPU-Z and there is no way to change this in the BIOS nor in Command Center.

 

Thanks!

think thats VCCIN which should be ~1.8V if you arent overclocked

typo

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)
