Hey guys I had a question. So I have my i5 3570k overclocked to 4.5 GHZ and manually set the voltage to 1.325 so why is it that when I am idling CPU-Z displays 1.320 Voltage however when I run prime95 stress test the voltages start dropping down to around 1.260 Voltage. Shouldn't this be the other way around? When Im running prime it should be 1.320 and when Im idling it should be 1.260. So is this normal behavior? Thanks.
P.S When im Idle my MHZ is at 1600 in case anyones wondering and 4500 mhz on prime.
EDIT: Sorry guys false alarm =( I forgot to put my OC back to 4.5 so it was making my voltages go lower cause it didn't need that much power. Everything works as it should now idleing on 1.35 voltage and going up to 1.36 volts on load.
