Hi,

Can I ask why you don't want vdroop?

hi, maybe I could improve with the temperatures? temp max is 63 in bf1 after 2 hours with a custom loop. But it is also my curiosity.

Some vdroop is healthy for the CPU. Prevents excessive overshoot. As long as you are stable, that is all that matters. One basic rule of overlocking is to run the lowest possible voltage needed for stability. This includes voltage set under VID and Vdroop. Less voltage = less heat. Always good.


Keep in mind as well that the Maximus 11 series of boards reports more accurate Vcore, so it makes Vdroop appear to be more dramatic. But as long as the system is stable you're good to go.


I also agree with x-rated…. adaptive is good for a daily system. Unless you are shooting for maximum overlock where voltage changes can disrupt stability at the upper limit, adaptive allows the system to pull less voltage and therefor less heat and power savings. I run my 9900K at 5.2GHz all cores using adaptive just fine.

so why dont you set voltage in adaptive mode instead? cpu won't use max. voltage for whole time and it will heat less
and update bios first, 0602 is better for tweaking everything, at least for me

hi, I will try the adaptive! why do you think the last bios is better? Before updating I want to learn more about the system to see the differences.
thanks also to the others for the advice !

edit: is there a guide for the adaptive ?

for adaptive, I set 1,270 in bios, the minimum marked by hwinfo is 0.6xx, in full 1,217 but scores a maximum vcore of 1,270! Same LLC7. Why is there a maximum of 1,270? How can I make the maximum in full 1,217?

I remember, im stable in "manual" with 1,270 bios -> full 1.217
