Hello. As the title says I am unable to control my Vcore setting. I have disabled all power saving features and began manipulating the clock speed from 33, to 34, to 35. Each increment corresponds with an increase in my Vcore despite me setting my Dynamic Vcore to +0.0. My motherboard only has a DVcore setting.
My relevant specs:
CPU: i5 2500k
Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-Z68A-D3H-B3
PSU: PC Power & Cooling ZT Series 750 Watt
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) Timing 9-9-9-24-2N, Voltage 1.5V
Here are captures of my bios screen at default settings. I went through every menu and submenu:

M.I.T. current status: http://i.imgur.com/9i2E68f.jpg

Here are screenshots of what I tried. Note the format of these albums are that they show a screenshot of Open Hardware Monitor under idle, under 100% load from p95, and a picture of my post screen after returning to the bios again after I made the initial changes and tested them.

Making sure Vcore is at 0.0: http://i.imgur.com/bIjA9xE.jpg
The tests:
Clock speed 3400, Load Line Auto: http://imgur.com/a/Moj9P (note this is only trial where Vcore did not increase on the bios post screen)
Clock speed 3400, Load Line Level 1: http://imgur.com/a/OyYAB (note post screen shows Vcore increased from 1.224 to 1.248)
Clock speed 3500, Load Line Auto: http://imgur.com/a/phRwU (note post screen shows Vcore increase to 1.260)
Clock speed 3500, Load Line Level 1: http://imgur.com/a/mWXlw (note post screen shows Vcore increase to 1.272)
Anyone have an idea of why my Vcore is changing on its own despite my disabling the features that would cause it to do so? If I can't control my Vcore setting I don't see how I can safely overclock my CPU.
