Heya, so about 2 weeks ago I upgraded my system from an old FX-8370 to a Ryzen 5 1600x with a new motherboard and RAM. And I noticed just recently that my voltages from what everything is telling me seem to be hanging around 1.4 to 1.45 volts on the CPU which seems unnervingly high considering I've done NO overclocking at all. It also very occasionally spikes up to 1.5 but only for a fraction of a second which seems like simple electrical physics changes there.
I've looked into this online in several places and many people talk about them temps being high as well when idle. But in this case, mine aren't at all. Yes, I am running a corsair H100i v2 AIO with it but many of the posts I've found also have AIO's. When idle the temps can literally drop to as low as like 25c to 30c, which is hardly a high temp if it was using those voltages. Even under load when I run a prime 95 torture test, after about 10 minutes my temps only cap at like 51c, which is the highest I could get it. And I'm fairly certain this isn't a temp sensor problem either because when I was running an air cooler temporarily on it before, the temps were different accordingly, which my load temp getting to 58c/59c and idle temps being high slightly.
Could this literally just be a sensor problem? The auto default voltage in my BIOS is set to 1.375 volts. The only thing I could find online that would vaguely explain this is a reddit comment responding to someone saying that when your motherboard has voltage set to auto, the Ryzen chip it's self has an internal voltage offset. The system doesn't seem unstable at all.
I should also mention that my motherboard is an ASUS ROG Strix B350-f. So it's not exactly a low quality brand motherboard.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: I should mention that I have indeed done both a BIOS update and a chipset update to both the latest versions and I still have the same issue.
