Correct core voltage setting for flexible core voltage

[Alexauwa]

Hi guys,

I am running a 6850K @ 4.0 GHz on a Asus X99 AII. I simply used the XMP profile on the board and left core coltage at auto.
Right now my core clock is set automatically depending on my working tasks which is fine. Watching CPU-Z I have a min. core voltage of
0.804V at 1223 MhZ and a max. 1.293 on 100% CPU usage using AIDA64. I think for only 4 Ghz 1.293 is too much and I'd like to
dial that down in bios.

What core voltage mode works best there. Adaptive? And how would I set it up to try a core voltge of 1.25 or even lower.

Thank you!

Would I simply use adaptive mode an enter +1.293? Which means under heavy load my core voltage reaches a max of 1.293 voltage?

If I remember correctly, the Additional Turbo Mode CPU Core Voltage option is where you should be inputting the voltage.
