After setting the parameters, i got 1.352v @ 3.2ghz which is too much Vcore, my question is, how can I lower the cpu vcore? As you can see the the CPU Voltage is on AUTO, all I can do with CPU Voltage is add up by increments like this one

But I can't decrease it, The lowest is AUTO, you can't decrease it rather than making it in AUTO

Can anyone help me with this? 3.2ghz @ 1.352v is too much, what should i config?

Technically 1.4v is safe, but I would recommend getting your voltages as low as you can go and still be stable, for the sake of reducing wear and heat. You'll need to use a tool like Prim95 to make sure that reduced voltage setting are still stable.

I would try disabling the OC Genie option in the overclocking settings menu and see if doing that will allow you to manually configure your voltage.
