Question IA Voltage Offset is different, while P and E cores reflects the undervolted voltage ?

IA Voltage Offset is different while P-cores and E-cores reflect the undervolted voltage. Is there anything wrong?


Settings I changed:
For High Performance (Plugged In)
Speed Shift : On
Speed Stop : Off

CPU Core: -150.4 (unstable at -180)
CPU P Cache: -70
CPU E Cache: -42

TPL
MMIO: Checked
PL 1: 95
PL 2: 120
TTL: 56 Sec

Lowered Turbo Groups
G0 and G1 from 52 to 40
G2 to G 7 from 42 to 40

Though my VID from before undervolting became lower from 1.2v, now it is hovering at 0.65-0.88v

 
IA Voltage Offset is different
If you make any voltage changes in ThrottleStop, these changes will show up immediately in the FIVR monitoring table. As far as I know, HWiNFO needs to be restarted each time you use ThrottleStop to make an offset voltage change.

Try using the ThrottleStop mV Boost feature in the FIVR window. Set mV Boost to 100 or 150. This boosts the voltage at low MHz which can help improve stability. This can allow you to use a bigger undervolt reliably for the P core and P cache.
