Hi,
I'm trying to overclock my Phenom II X6 1055T at the moment and I've got it up to 3.5GHZ stable in Prime95 fine but when monitoring it I can see that the cpu vcore keeps rising as the temps go up. I've set the vcore manually in the BIOS to 1.3875v but even just after boot with nothing running both CPU-Z and CPUID Hardware Monitor report a vcore of about 1.41. When I run Prime95 this starts to creep up and I've seen it get up 1.45v which is a bit higher than I'm happy with at the moment.
I've gone through the bios and turned everything I can think of that might cause this, Turbo Core, thermal throttling, dynamic OC etc and set everything to manual that I can see but it's still happening.
Is there anything else that could be causing this and is it something I should be worrying about?
Many Thanks,
Ross
