Hello, I did search about lowering voltage of CPU, but I could not find what I am looking for. I am total newbie when it comes to BIOS, and setting things up so please bare with me.
I built a new system,
Intel i7 4790k, Asus z97-a, MSI geforce gtx 950, and 1600ddr 32g RAM, and 750W psu.
When I checked the cpu temp using cupid hwmonitor, it was over 75c doing only web surfing.
So I ordered Noctua nh-9s cooler and checked the temp, its around 65c, web surfing. I know 4790k is hot cpu, but doing nothing and temp is mid 60c seems not right.
So I want to lower the cpu voltage in BIOS, but I just do not know how...
I tried to change the option to adaptive mode, (auto)then it does not boot, saying overcolocking failed.
Can anyone help me to lower the voltage so I get low temp for the cpu?
One more thing is that the BIOS is default setting, but the vcore voltage is 1.312v and all 4 cores are 4500mhz... I thought 4790k should be 4000 in default? I do not know why the core speed is 4500? I did not overclock it, and I turned off turbo boost setting in BIOS...
Thank you.
