That's a tiny spike between new pictures. The voltage remains much lower during any load. Average is below 1.2vFrom what I read this CPU acts like that. I'm also not an expert and can't be sure. The BIOS is close to stock and I only activated memory ...
I usually float at about 3.8Ghz and only occasionally get spikes to like 4.2GHz. Not sure how to read that and if that's fine or CPU degraded. I think I may be fine considering voltage and temps during heavy load. AMD recommends a water cooler for th...
I start to believe maybe all is fine. Voltage drops a lot during CPU benchmarks. Temps are fine and PC is very stable.Screenshot taken during Cinebench test. Core voltage well below 1.2v
My system fails to boot at stock settings without PBO and reduced voltage to 1.35v. Base clock is 3.5Ghz.I'm giving up. I will wait and see if it dies. If it does I will consider a different mobo next time. I've found this. 1.45v may actually be norm...
