cpuz

hello,

just a quick question when i set my vcore in bois to 1.355 , and when i open cpu-z and do a ibt test the vcore in cpuz shows something like 1.2 as the vcore

why is this?

thank you.

Does it drop from 1.3v+ ? Could be vdroop.

hi,

well yes i put it to 1.65 vcore and as i run ibt and cpuz it shows ( cpu-z) the vcore as 1.296 or abit higher.

i cant answer why but does same for me

It's because of two reasons:-

Vdrop
The difference between what you set in the BIOS and what you actually get at idle. Current motherboards tend to have very small Vdrop compared to previous chipsets.

Vdroop
When you load a CPU, Intel's design specification requires that the Vcore drops to avoid potentially dangerous transient voltage spikes damaging the CPU. This can be overriden by using LLC (Load Line Calibration).

Hope you mean 1.35v?
