Hi guys, just a frequent lurker here in the forums, new to overclocking.
anyways i have oc'ed my 3770k to 4.4ghz
got my manual voltage at stable which is : 1.230v
and VID shows : 1.2410
so if i subtract that to the common formula use in offset, because i want to use offset voltage to save power
i get (-)0.011, however its very unstable when i log in to the os so i tried other numbers (+) which gets to 1.230v.
I finally got to (+)0.080 with
ASUS MOTHERBOARD (DIGI+ Powercontrol)
LLC: Auto
voltage freq: manual
Fixed Frequency :300
power phase control: Optimized
Power duty control: T Probe
CPU Current Capability : 100%
so it was stable wise prime 95 and IBT
but what i noticed is that my voltage isn't stable
idle: 0.8-0.9
Prime95 Load : 1.232
those are fine
but normal opening of programs, moving windows,just random things my vcore shoots upto 1.288-1.296v
is this normal?
i would just want it be at exact 2.32v and while idle 0.8-.09 did i miss a setting? or did i do something silly biggrin.gif?
thanks in advance
edit:
I tried other numbers and settings
+0.050
llc: high
same settings as above
and the voltage instabilty is still there it shoot ups to 1.28 when doing simple task like moving windows
