Hi, I have a 6700k and a gigabyte ga-z170x gaming 5 moterboard. I have managed to get my overclock stable at 4.5 GHz with core voltage at 1.32v and cpu loadline calibration set to high (the other options are auto or standerd). But in HWMonitor I see CPU VCORE 1.3V average and max 1.32V. But the VID is like 1.35V average and with max peaks of 1.402V. Is this ok or should I change something. Y have a hyper 212 evo cooler and my temps are at 70C when running x264.
Thanks

No need to worry about VID. As long as your VCore is close to what you set it to and your temps are fine then you are good. My VIN stays at 1.408 even though my Vcore jumps from 0.5v (idle and cpu drops speed) all the way to 1.42v (4790k under full load overclocked)
