PPL voltage too high

Asus Maximus XI Hero motherboard with Intel 9700k shows the processor PPL Voltage at 2.6 volts when the multiplier is set at or over 53. Fine at 52 the chip can run stable at 54. Don’t understand why or how to adjust that voltage.

What's PPL?
You have a lot of typos here. 2.6v? What? A processor would be destroyed if any voltage were that high. Even on sub-zero.

If i lower the multiplier to 52 it reads normal.
