Voltage Passes BIOS set value

[raymondang15]

In CPUID, my voltage goes more than the limit that I set in BIOS.

I'm trying to overclock to 4.5 at less than 1.2. And in my CPUID, it shows 1.264, what is it that it's allowing for it to overvolt?

It would help if you told us what processor, motherboard you have.

Does your BIOS have CPU voltage offset or turbo voltage controls? I'm newbish, but pretty certain either of those can give the system some ability to vary the Vcore.

Yeah they're on auto, should I disable them?

Yes, jricknewb is correct. If you still have turbo mode on, turn it off for O/C'ing.

Edit: gave credit to wrong poster.

Oh I gotta turn it off?

You don't have to, but Turbo Boost will keep trying to increase the voltage as it attempts to boost the speed of some cores. Most overclockers work with any type of automatic speed enhancement turned off.

Which settings would you alter?

Can you post on there? Sorry. I don't wanna go back to this one
