Default vcore for Ryzen 7700

[Anooshorseville]

Greetings.

I have been out of the PC scene many years, just getting back into it.

I have a Ryzen 7700 which arrived yesterday. The 7000 series are pretty new so info is really hard to find, I have tried Youtube and googling like mad and of course looking at 'specifications' on AMD website, but nothing is turning up 'specific' to my question.

I am currently using PBO Curve Optimiser -30, my concern is how high the vcore is on the 7700, before I did that, it was going up to 1.34+ under stress test/load and I **** my shorts.

As I said I am on -30 now, and that's brought it down to 1.224, which is less concerning, but despite googling I just can't find a damn straight answer as to what sort of default vcore under load I should be expecting/aiming for, with a 7700 (non X) on default. And maybe what would be normal after PBO -30.

Any info in general appreciated. I feel really in the dark here..

My specs;

Ryzen 7700 (NON X)
Gigabyte B650 GAMING X AX
Corsair 32GB 5600 CL36

Temps are fine btw.

CPU-Z under load/stress test.

Aye, I meant to say under load.

To be clear, a single Core Voltage is provided by the VRMs, so regardless my CPU's best core max voltage request was 1.153v, it received 1.261 because of the worst core.

This is all much more complex than what I was after, but understood, idea being you could underclock the weakest core a bit and up the others with less overall vcore being supplied to the chip?

I myself mind was just wondering in for example, CPU-Z, what sort of vcore, on default settings, would be expected for a 7700 under load - as I was surprised, and concerned, by being faced with 1.34v, under a load.
