CPU-Z and its voltage values

[Vonteme]

Whats up with CPU-Z??

In bios, Vcore is set manually to 1.095v

In idle, CPU-Z shows 1.080v.
In load it shows 1.040-1.032v.

What the hell, shouldn't it be reverted?

Mobbo: P55 GD65

CPU: i5 750

Cheers

Just because you set a value in bios, doesn't mean you're getting that EXACT value. Generally you'll just get somewhere 'close.'

The drop in voltage on load is called Vdroop, and it's totally normal.

exactly what zoson said.. what you set in your bios is never the same voltage you actually see.. there is always vdroop.. and to say that even cpu-z is correct is false as well.. only way to find the actual voltage is to sit there and test it with a multimeter.. but cpu-z is about as close to real voltage as you can get with software..

Thanks for posting

I get 1.120v when it's 100% load at 3.411MHZ (stable ofc)

It that good vcore for 3.411MHz?


In idle get 1.2v.
