I have OC my 4770k with Z87 Gryphon Mobo to 4.3 and left the core voltage on auto. Why does the voltage read 1.223 before, during, and after a stress test? Isn't it supposed to ramp up and down with the amount of load?(Just a noob)

Never overclocked on that motherboard, nor do I have any experience surrounding that Gryphon lines.
Why would you leave it on Auto? Honestly, and not trying to sound mean here, but that is a horrible idea. If you lack experience on overclocking, you should have looked up tutorials on how to do it, a long with some decent recommended starting points. All my years of overclocking, I've never once left it on Auto. If it's staying at 1.223 volts, that's most likely the motherboard keeping it there. That could be good or bad. But I'm guessing not so good. |

I don't do oc'ing but could this be the Speedstep under CPU Power management isn't enabled in AI Tweaker?

The only way that would be applicable here bprat is if he set his min and max power % to 100%. But then that means his oc would stay at 4.3ghz at all times. There's a tid bit of info we're missing here in terms of how he did his over clock, what all was changed, etc to even begin to figure out what the issue is.

Got it. With vcore feeding the clock, I'd think it would be the same, but more does go into overclocking.
Thanks. |

Thanks for the feedback all. Like I said I'm a noob at this. One other question. I've had this small overclock setting([email protected]) for at least a year and only had one BSOD but the debugging info points to a CPU hardware problem and DS support said I could ignore it since it's only one BSOD in a year or raise the Vcore by.05.What's the consensus here-leave well enough alone or raise the voltage?? Thanks again.
And one other thing -my BIOS has an "Auto" mode and an "Adaptive" mode under core voltage. What's the difference?? Edited by robertden - 22 Oct 2014 at 5:52pm |

I wouldn't worry about one BSOD in a year. I've had more than that just uninstalling software.
You could try to tweak the voltage, wouldn't hurt but that's up to you.

I was wrong.I have it on adaptive mode and have the voltage set at 1.223 but in a Intel benchmark the voltage peaked at 1.31 and reached 44 GHz OC.Is auto mode what Asus deems best and adaptive mode is what I set as range?
