Allright, i've been battling this damn thing for a year and I really could use some help with this freaking Devils Canyon. I've got a 4790k Devils that i'm pushing at 4.7ghz on my Hero VII mobo on DDR3600 G.Skill Trident memory.* On auto voltage my 4790k is swalling up 1.349v on the core though my temps keep reasonable below 70c on my Thermalright True Spirit 140 power.
I have been trying to figure how the hell to exactly get the vcore to go lower and still allow the CPU to downlock and reduce voltage on lower/idle loads vs just manually adjusting the voltage.* The menu system on this ROG board is making it really hard for me to figure out how to use either offset or adaptive voltage.* Any help from overclocking guru's would be great. I've got included screenshots of my current settings and mobo UEFI layout

Hello Icetron
As Arne says find your maximum stable overclock in manual mode first then switch to adaptive.
Let the cpu core ratio to 47, set the cpu core voltage to manual and enter in 1.30v in the "cpu core voltage override". F10 and Enter and run a stress test, if it's stable lower the voltage .01v to 1.29v and test again. Keep lowering the cpu core voltage .01v until it becomes unstable then bring it back up .01v, if you want a higher overclock continue on. A good 4790k can do 4.9GHz with approx. 1.35v give or take.
Run a stress test after each voltage change to ensure stability.
Once you find your maximum overclock simply switch from manual mode to adaptive mode and enter in the voltage in the "Additional cpu turbo mode"
Hello again, sorry, i suck at this if you can't tell already 😞
My temps get insane with using Prime 95 and I don't feel like paying for AID64, any suggestions?

Lol sorry, i'm a noob to this, I need hand holding. So you think I should turn off that Spectrum setting as well?
1ceTr0n, personally I like setting the CPU Core Voltage Offset [Auto]->[0.001]; this is how my setup is.
Like you I'm on air, if you do run P95 use non AVX version (27.9), what I like about RealBench stress mode is not only is the CPU on test but the GPU, so whole system getting a good workout.
Looking at your other screenshots your system should lower voltage at idle, what power profile do you use in windows?
