For anyone who is using a Z77 motherboard or z68 and p67 feel free to jump in.
Asus P8Z77 V PRO that i use has some odd auto settings for voltage. For one At default, the voltage on offset can go as high as 1.256v@3900Mhz. But the one that stikes me right now is Any Frequency under 4200Mhz it will run hotter at idle and load, with voltages of 1.140v to 1.175v. The same with LCC and CPU current at their default setting for any manual OC that i tested.....
Anyone? anyone?
Bueller?

Ivy Bridge K series... tried both i5 and i7,CPU-Z realtemp, HWmonitor, HWinfo64
I am not sure which settings would apply to other vendors though for voltages.
