I have a 4670k on a Z87 sabertooth. I know that I need 1.226v to keep it stable at 4505mhz. I now want to enable the power saving mode with less voltage when there is less load. No matter what I do I can't get it stable with an offset without going over 1.288v. Adaptive is even worse. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If you are not able to get it stable at the voltage you want, you have two choices....Either you simply let it remain stable at the voltage you originally set it at, or you lower your multiplier. If it will not stabilize without the voltage increase, there is not much you can do to change that, it is simply how that chip is. If I were you, I would simply leave it at the stable clock/voltage and not worry about offsets, or adaptive settings:)

Thanks. I think I'll just leave it at a static stable voltage.

Have you tried changing the Windows Advanced Power Option to "Balanced" or are you on "High Performance"?

I leave mine on Balanced and it allows the CPU speed and Vcore to drop down under periods of low load.

Yes. The cpu throttles down, but the voltage stays the same.
