RVE & 6950X Voltage weirdness help
Im Afraid I'm going to melt my band new 6950X and Don't know how to control the voltage....I just upgraded from a 5960X to a 6950X and my voltage control now showing gross inaccuracies.
Mobo: Rampage V Extreme u3.1 Bios 3301
Under Fully Manual Mode, With the 5960X - If I chose 1.365v - The Mobo Reports 1.375. Was high, but close. And Windows CPUZ Reported accurately.
Under Fully Manual Mode, with the 6950X - If I chose 1.35v - The Mobo Reports 1.392v. Way too high. Then In Windows CPUZ Shows 1.30v
Then - To Test, I tried to lower the voltage way way down (just to test) to 1.29v. The Mobo shows 1.344v! Why the big difference? CPUz Shows 1.42v Yikes!
What and Why is happening? I don't want to blow up my CPU because I can't accurately tune the voltage... Is there some setting Im missing?Last edited by mcgintydm1984; 08-30-2016 at 10:36 PM.

Upon more testing, No matter what I manually set it to in the bios, it looks like the only voltages my CPU wants to do (at 4.3Ghz) is 1.312 v, which is too low, 1.344 which seems ok but i still would like to refine it, 1.375 or 1.392 which is too high. I don't seem to have granular control over the score and unsure why.

LLC does not interfere with vcore in H-E and B-E because of internal voltage regulator, it only affects input voltage.
If you wanna low down that vcore voltage (6950x), u got to decrease the selected one to 1.30v more or less, so that the regulator has a lower point. But you will have to check if it is enough for the desired frequency.
The best program under OS to check the vcore voltage is Aida64, not CPU-Z which only shows VID selection.Last edited by vmanuelgm; 01-22-2017 at 11:14 AM.
