You see my build in my sig if that's helpful.
I'm currently preparing to do a bigger overclock on my RAM sticks, and by that I've had to do lots of reading and investigation on what affects the stability of the overclock, including things as VCCSA (System Agent) and VCCIO.
What's bugging me out is that I haven't enabled XMP inside BIOS (though it's flipped ON on the mobo), and I haven't changed the BLCK frequency, yet it says in my BIOS that my System Agent voltage is 1.176V - already higher than 1.1V, around the same voltage as the stock core voltage on the CPU.
Does this mean that I should just leave it there, or perhaps increase it for stability, or maybe even cut it down in case it's too much?
Also, I've noticed I have VCCIO options for both the CPU and PCH (labeled VCCIO CPU and VCCIO PCH), should I only adjust the VCCIO CPU and leave the other one, or adjust them both?

Guess I'll have to monitor it for a few days to see how it behaves.
