As the title suggest I am trying to find a good overclock for my 8700K on the ASRock Z370 Extreme board, I have found it stable at 5GHZ at around 1.28 vcore on fixed voltage LLC1 which I believe is the highest on this board. Main issue is I cannot for the life of me get it to drop vcore at idle & when using offset no matter what offset I use the max vcore seems to shoot up to 1.372 -1.392 but obviously I don't want it that high as it runs so much hotter and it should stable at much lower Voltages looking at the fixed voltage results.
Am I missing something with these new boards? It's been my first upgrade since Sandy Bridge where I used offset voltage and this worked well, I just don't understand why I can only use fixed voltage to lower voltage and why offset is putting it so high
