Set the ia a.c. and dc load lines to 0.01 as shown, too. Or you can try svid behaviour to best case. See which gives you the voltage you want.

Old post I know....
But for all those that are reading online like me to overclock, from all the reading I have been doing, this is not suppose to be a good way, running stress tests in Adaptive Mode.

In the meantime, what is IA DC Load & IA AC Load?

Turbo Mode CPU Core Voltage shows for Air Cooling 1.25v, why this voltage?

This is because most people writing the guides don't understand how to use Adaptive mode, so it's easier for them just to tell people to use manual voltage.
Sets how much VID the CPU requests according to load - it's designed be used relative to the external load line.
It's just a guideline. If you need less or more based on your CPU and cooling, use less or more. As with all things, if you read properly and actually do it, you start to learn the skills not to need guides or help.

I'd like to think I'm somewhat Geek, but I also don't want to mess up the hardware with something I'm not sure about what I'm doing.
So after reading a little, my understanding with the Additional turbo mode CPU core voltage I put in the actual volts I used to Manual Volt OC? Which in my case I used 1.315v
Thanks

That's why there's a guide (which tells you what to set). 😉
If you want to do things another way, that's up to you. It's a free world, my friend.

As I said above, you simply have to set the adaptive voltage correctly, and then, you avoid the step of going from manual to adaptive. Some of this aversion to using adaptive was caused by earlier platforms having an adaptive voltage hike for AVX, people not knowing about IA AC/DC load line settings/SVID behaviour on Z370, plus the impact of Uncore ratios on the requested VID (this has been patched). That's the only reason that guides tell you to do it via manual voltage. Now that it's all been dialed out, there's nothing to be concerned about. Some of these folks don't even know that SVID needs to be enabled for adaptive voltage...
Anyway, use whatever guide suits your mindset and requirements. If you've got your system set up (as you evidently have), please carry on and enjoy it. 🙂
