So went into DVID and selected -0.050v and saved exited. Upon going back to bios the first column in DVID shows -0.050v but the second column shows +0.000v

As a beginner in this area I went Hrmm and decided to go to windows. I used HWmonitor, Hwinfo, Intel Extreme Tuning Tool and all of them show +0.000v in all offset readings?

Was there something else I was supposed to set in my motherboard?

My system at the time of this question:

|| CPU: Intel 14900k || GPU: evga 3080 XC3 Ultra Hybrid || MB: Gigabyte Aorus Z790M Elite Ax ICe || RAM: 2 x 32GB 6000mhz DDR5 SDRAM || Samsung EVO 970 Plus 2TB || Dell S2417DG Monitor || Soundblaster AE-7 || Phanteks Eclipse p600s Case || be Quiet! Dark Rock Slim CPU Cooler || Corsair AX1600i PSU || 7 Fans total in system ||
 
You can download a free, no nonsense program called Core Temp, which you can run on your system once you've booted into Windows to verify your undervolts are sticking, along with temperature monitoring. Once you have the program running, you can click on Tools to check each individual core and what voltage it's running at.
