Been running Prime for about 2-21/2 hours now and the voltage seems really low or is it normal?

You're priming at stock settings?

Not an expert, but if it's on auto voltage, that must be all the voltage it needs on stock speeds.

Low is good unless its acting weird, this means you do not have a rubbish chip.

Reasonably sure default volts for 3.3 are 1.1 or 1.15... Allowing for a smidge of vdroop, I think you're right on the lower

Yeah cause of the buzzing noise from my other thread, it only happens under load.

Try prime on only 3 cores, it should turbo up to 3.7ghz and possibly higher voltage? But tbh it looks good.

I'm going to 4+ once watercooling is done.
