Hi,

Please can someone help me undervolt my cpu on an Asus motherboard? Where I need to go in the bios and what options I need to change etc

Goal is to achieve a lower load temp.

Spec:

Intel Core i7 12700K
ASUS TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS WIFI D4
16GB (2x8GB) Corsair DDR4 Vengeance LPX 3600 CL14

The bios looks very confusing. I can’t seem to find the option to simply set a cpu voltage offset value.

The only setting I have set atm is XMP II for the RAM.

Thanks!

Current Temps

Motherboard reports Max CPU temp as 81C but CPU reports Package as 87C. Temps are all over the place.

I am using HWMonitor.

Try find setting called "cpu core voltage" normally set to auto,change to adpative and next drop down tab it will show + change it to minus,below input what you wish drop it by.
alderlake will only go so low,the v/f curve is preset,
