X99 Adaptive Voltages ?

Dicehunter · 11 Jan 2016 at 12:01

Looking to use offset voltage or adaptive voltage so when the rig is idle the volts go down.

My 5930K is game and bench stable at 4.50GHZ 1.26v, How much would I have to offset this by for the adaptive voltage ?

Noob'ish question I know but I am noobcakes when it comes to X99

Hi,

Adaptive uses the stock VID table up up until using the turbo multiplier. Simply enter the total voltage you wish to use in the Additional Turbo Voltage field, leaving the offset field Auto. The offset function is not required when in adaptive mode, and there is no real reason to do so. Also be aware that adaptive voltage only works when on the 100 base clock.

Awesome thanks bud

Well I've tried the adaptive voltage, Total adaptive voltage and it just won't get passed the boot screen unless I use standard voltage settings.

You'll have to post up your settings. Note Adaptive Cache does not work, this is a limitation of the CPU architecture. As stated previously CPU Adaptive Voltage only works on the 100 strap

That did the trick, Now got adaptive on the CPU core, 4.50GHz with 1.26v adaptive and 42 on the cache with 1.26 normal voltage, All stable
