Specs:
MSI Z97s Sli Krait Edition Mobo
HyperX 16gb 1866mhz Ram
4790k
Evga 980 sc
I see the processor frequency drop while idle and also boosting appropriately when playing a game or something. What bothers me is the voltage doesn't drop with the frequency. I tested some things in the bios and found it this is because I have manually set my cpu core voltage. If the core voltage is set to auto, the voltage drops with the frequency like it should. I just don't wanna leave it on auto because it defaults to 1.25v. I have read online the max a 4790k will need at stock (4.4ghz) is 1.2v. I have currently been running at 1.2v for a couple weeks now, I know can go even lower but I haven't taken the time to mess around and test it.
I have EIST on, turbo boost on, enhanced turbo boost on *MSI boards only*, C-States enabled, C1E enabled, and C-State Package limit on auto.
