I found the option to enable and disable it however i cant seem to find the option to increase the voltage for it? Does anyone know which or where it is?

The cpu PLL voltage is not the same thing.

Anyone? Help please :)

As far as I know, it has just 3 settings. Auto/ Enable / Disable, or it does on my P8Z77-V LX

with that CPU PLL, I cant do a thing with mine, it has 2 settings, Auto/ +0.010v so I have no way of lowering it at all! ASUS are beginning to bug me
 
This option is to enable the Phase lock loop voltage increase within the CPU its self.Its either on or off basically and is set to Intel standard.

So if i can't boot in with 4.8ghz then what else can i tweak to get past this and actually boot into windows?

Even though I'm learning overclocking day by day, one thing I'm certain of is, that if it wont boot to windows under default, with a turbo x48, and nothing else changed, then it's just not going to, no matter what settings you hit it with. x48 is too high for your hardware. You probably could under extreme circumstances but with probable temps touching the TJ Max, Unless you stick it in the freezer :p

I was hoping i could win the chip lottery and get a chip that could do 4.8+ :p

I'll settle for 4.7ghz then, like others have said 4.8ghz isn't worth the extra heat or voltages for very little gain.

Still nice to have a chip that can reach 4.7ghz :D

Good for you ;) I'm still looking for the Stable 4.5 mark without having to use ultra High LLC, and + Offsets of 0.160, the readings next to Offset in bios are all over the place, if I enter 0.065v it jumps up to 1.288 in the description next to offset, if I enter 0.088 it jumps to 1.296 and so forth I cant Win! :p

Its been as high as 1.376v somethings happening that I cant figure out, but I'll get there :cool:
 
Why dont you try with this, im not sure how comfortable you are with using manual vcore adjustment but my current config is as follows.

Turbo multiplier x47
Vcore 1.395v
Llc high
Cpu pll voltage 1.6v
Internal pll enabled
Cpu current capability 130%
Thermal capacity 150
All enery saving features enabled
manually clocked my ram instead of xmp profile


During load on prime95 i find that my volts wont drop below 1.390v which is the sweet spot for mine it seems. Any lower and i'll get errors and crashes.

I also have my windows power options set to balanced to keep the cpu cool when idling.

Idle temps are 36c and load at 75c under water with an old EK LTX BLOCK.


I found using offset if i didn't have my windows power option set to balanced my cpu volts would hover around 1.48v!!! Which is insanely high!

Would lower to 1.2v if balance is enabled ans load would be around 1.395v with no llc and auto setting on offset.

I could try that, except for a couple of things, on My board which is a P87ZZ-V LX, I cant lower the CPU PLL, because it has just 2 settings, Auto, and + 0.010v, the right hand panel which shows Min/Max values says Minimum for this board is 1.8v, so the only thing it will let me do is add 0.010v making it 1.9v. CPU Capabiity only goes to 120%, and I have no idea where Thermal capacity is, so I guess I don't have it. I did manually set my RAM to 9.9.9.24 however.
