Hello,
I'm new to undervolting and have just been playing around with it on my 8700k. I have managed to get lowest temps and vcore under load while using a manual vcore, whereas trying to replicate this with offset I am unable to boot (presumably idle voltages shifted too low by offset?).
I can get similar temps with a less aggressive offset but I do get higher vcore spikes (1.25ish Vs a 1.12 manual vcore). My question is: is it better for the CPU to have lower load vcore (manual) but it not being able to drop at idle speeds, or higher load vcore (using offset) while dropping to low vcores (~0.6) at idle?
My gigabyte motherboard unfortunately doesn't seem to have the adaptive vcore option where only the load vcore is offset so I don't think I can have the best of both here
Many thanks!
