worried 6700K showing core voltage 1.328V in bios, is this wrong ? all bios at default, thought it should be like 1.2 ?

How come your getting a 300mhz overclock on just 1.25, when im at default 4.2 at 1.328v ?

AS I said I am using adaptive voltage in fact I am using more than 1.25V just set additional voltage to 1.25V in reallity it uses about 1.280V on idle and 1,312-1.328V(Not more) on heavy load/stress tests...

it states on the box. Tomuks

Adaptive voltage does not post no matter the settings i use i think it is because it is setting a too low voltage for my chip. i have to reset and go back into the bios it has 1.040 at a frequency of 1800 mhz ratio of 18. I think my chip just needs much higher voltage. setting a manual voltage has it going way above what i have set. always over 1.4 v So i may RMA my chip. it wont last long going over 1.4 at stock very long. Setting it lower just makes it crash

What bios versions do you have? Tried a newer or older bios?

Captain_Jack_Sparrow can you show screenshot with UEFI overclock settings

I think there may be an instability issue with the AI suite.

Randomly in the AI suite the cpu goes back to stock even though the settings are still set to say 4.5 and your running a stress test. It will then only go to the normal 4.2 turbo.

I have to then change the ratio a few times up and down before it will turbo up to what I have set. The trouble is after this has happened I don't think the program works properly as changing the adaptive voltage down has no effect.

I think this is what happened before to me and that was maybe why I could not then get the adaptive voltage to be stable.

I usually don't use these type of programs an always stick to the bios but I just was using it at first to monitor the temps and voltage.

I can now get stock voltage down although boost voltage always goes around .100 to .170 above your set oc voltage. the voltage still jumps up to
1.264v even putting on an offset of -0.200 so the chip still is getting auto v to boost it up above what we are setting. The voltage will never drop below 1.248. with a 1v oc overlcock.
Using the AI I can set 44 ratio and an adaptive oc overclock of 1.000 v and it is stable.

for 45 ratio I have to increase voltage to get it stable, so I am playing with dropping voltage at 44 which seems to be the stable spot for low voltage on my chip.

It works fine for a while then the turbo rate just drops to stock oc turbo randomly then other functions don't seem to work properly. A bios reset seems to
sort it as well as completely closing the program and reopening it although this didn't always work.
Now there might be something else going on making this happen just want to check with people before I send in a error report or bug report.

Better do overclock in UEFI bios settings not in AI, and look if it changes anything..

Even at 4.2 my core voltage is at like 1.45 all the time, all UEFI bios at default also, strange.

Hey i have the same problem.

On default Bios settings, in Bios VCore: 1,28
On load the VCore rises to 1,4V (to hight)

I tried to reduce the Vcore with an Offset of -0,15. This decreased the VCore on load to 1,26V, but after the Board returning from sleep mode, the VCore is 1,4 again.
My CPU would be stable with ca 1,2 - 1,24V Core Voltage @ 4,2GhZ, but why does the motherboard (VIII Hero) wants 1,4V?

I could need a newer BIOS version with a Fix.
So ASUS, its your turn 😄

Hi,

this is my settings for comparison. I'm still trying to decrease tension for 4500 Mhz, actually 1.280V, 1.168V Iddle.

If anyone has any advice he is welcome.

Ps: sry for my poor english
