New to build/overclocking
i7-6700k
32GB 2400mhz DDR4 (16x2)
Asus Sabertooth z170 s
Windows 10 Pro
HWMonitor 1.29.0
UEFI/BIOS from Default:
XMP RAM Profile
CPU Core Ratio => Sync All Cores => 46
CPU Core Voltage => Adaptive / Turbo to 1.300V (originally set to manual for several days of learning/testing)
I think I am at a pretty stable configuration, after several days of trying different things and stress testing. 4 hours RealBench and 4 hours Intel XTU, VID as read thru HWMonitor and CPU-Z remained steady at mostly at 1.304V with a max of 1.315V with temps max in the mid-60s.
First, does all this seem reasonable? About 1.28-1.33V seems to be the spread for 46 multipler with the 6700k.
Second, I have googled the crap out this and cannot find a good answer... What is IA under the CPU Voltage in HWMonitor?
It is listed under the tree:
MyPC => Intel Core i7 6700k => Voltages
The values under Voltage tree are for VID, IA, GT Offset, LLC/Ring Offset, System Agent Offset.
VID shows 1.304V value, 1.304V min, 1.315V max (I reset max/min when I started stress test)
IA shows 1.331V across the board.
Rest are +0.0000V
I have seen posts that explain very high IAs (3.+V) and also IA offsets, nothing seems to fit. The values for IA only appeared (or I only noticed it) after I set power to adaptive. I am almost thinking it is my 1.300V set in the UEFI/BIOS plus the additional Auto Offset, like a top maximum voltage. I should probably stop letting my stupid show... Any help is appreciated.
