Vcore value fix on R4Extreme

Hi friends, i don' t understand how to fix the value of the Vcore on my R4 extreme.
I use the manual settings ( Not offset mode ) and fix the value to... 1.32V. for example.
I restar PC and start Linx or Prime95 and see that this value start from 1.32 and arrive, when all core works, at 1.34V-1.35V, when finish to benchmark reset value to 1.32.
Which parameter i need to change to have a fix value ? :confused:
Thanks to all.

you are doing it right, theres nothing worng , theres always a little difference between load and idle vcore depending on the loadline setting you have set or have left at auto. nothing to worry about

I set the loadline on extreme mode, now, with more tranquility, i try to follow the road of the 5.0 Ghz. 🙂



Thank you.

I strongly caution against using LLC at Extreme unless you are actively and aggressively cooling the VRMs with fans or water cooling. All you are likely accomplishing on Extreme is a significant overvolt situation to the CPU (actual Vcore being higher than what you set in BIOS). An LLC of Medium works well for most overclocking, with a setting of High if you want to push it. I am acheiving a stable 5Ghz with an LLC of Medium. Extreme is more for the hardcore LN2 guys for bansi runs.

Thank you for the advertisement, i change in medium and try to overclock with this parameter.

To be honest I don't think the 5.0GHz in that cpuz screen cap is going to be stable at all. Just getting in to windows and getting a cpuz validation does not mean you are any where near stable. I personally would have to see that under load for 24 hours before I would call it stable. i would say your going to need quite a bit more core voltage and a few other tweaks that some one more experienced with the board can help you with.

Is your v core higher in windows than in the bios with extreme mode LLC on if so by how much. Most of the time LLC set to high should get your voltage to stay the same in windows as in the bios.

LLC extreme will overvolt as you found out, tell me did you achieve your 5GHz target? 🙂
