Is that VCore, or Core Voltage (STI2 TFN)? one is the VCore output of the VRM... the other (STI2 TFN) is the actual core voltage inside the CPU. You can see them separately using HWInfo64. On some boards they read very close all the time, others not so much. It just depends on where the VRM sense point is.I got my Ryzen 5 2600 to a stable 4GHz, but it took 1.3875v to do it. My question is; is that OK for everyday use? Gaming? What's too high?
I don't know. Whatever Ryzen Master uses in the section referred to as Voltage Control (V)/CPU Voltage.Is that VCore, or Core Voltage (STI2 TFN)? one is the VCore output of the VRM... the other (STI2 TFN) is the actual core voltage inside the CPU.

I'm using a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition. Temps never got out of the high 60cs running Intel Burn Test except for a momentary spike into the low 70Cs once or twice. I've been gaming with it for awhile since and all seems normal, including temps. I just had no idea what to consider safe for voltage is all.Also, what are you using for cooling?
If overclocking, get HWInfo64. It's a free DL, easy to use in portable install. RyzenMaster really isn't best for looking at some things.I don't know. Whatever Ryzen Master uses in the section referred to as Voltage Control (V)/CPU Voltage.

You mean overvolting in overclocking?Why bother?
Ryzen 5 2600:
So, what's the point of overvolting it to get that extra 100MHz?
- Base clock - 3.4GHz
- Boost clock - 3.9GHz
- What harm does it do?
