My fx-8350 is in idle vcore is0.843 and its varriable up to 1.4 or 1.6 when starting progs or games i am not doing any overcloking and i was just wandering is that safe for the cpu
my mobo is asus m5a97 r2.0
 
Now that is very weird.. What are you using to monitor temps... 1.550V is the core max before the CPU becomes unstable.. if it is hitting 1.6 then you have a problem... 1.4 is normal... as default is anywhere between 1.2 and 1.4 no more than 1.4 but like if ur OC the best to stay is behind 1.550... like my V for my OC is 1.548V talk about a close call rightXD
 


But Iam Not Doing any oc i though if i should change the vcore volts manualy via bios menu iam using ai suite 2 for monitoring so should i make it manual or what i just want to play games normally and thanks for ur answer !!
