![]() ![]() ![]() I was honestly surprised the 1st computer I built I got it installed so quick (on the 1st try) and temps were on point. There are some great youtube install tutuorial videos you can watch. I can do straight "Offset Voltage" and get it down to 1.19V turbo or so, problem is that then my idle voltage drops way down to around 0.6V and BSOD if I leave it idling too long. 212 evo is not hard to install at all (and I have big hands). most people say you shouldn't need to set anything in the offset there at all either, are they wrong? I read a few different guides, some say that "Additional Turbo Voltage" should just be set to your desired turbo voltage, IE 1.183V, but doing that made no different either. IE if I set "Offset Sign" to "-" and then leave "CPU Core Offset" on "AUTO" but set "Additional Turbo Voltage" to say "0.06" it still goes to 1.25V. problem is if I try to set it to Adaptive I can't get it to do anything different than AUTO. If I set voltage to Manual I can set it to 1.183V (maybe lower) and it'll be fine, I ran it for 4 days without issue. ![]() Oh and electricity is pretty expensive here This means it is running 4.4GHZ across all cores BTW. My problem is with everything set to default the motherboard sets the CPU turbo voltage to 1.25V, which I guess is "OK" - but it's a heatwave in Vancouver right now and my CM 212 EVO cooler just barely keeps it in check during stress tests. So I did an upgrade from my i5 3570k to a i7 4790k system last week, swapped in Asus Maximus VII Gene mATX board and some faster ram I had sitting on a shelf.
