I'm running BIOS 1.7. I currently have the Vcore set to 1.2125v, the base clock set to 170 and the multiplier to 20. My 2 main concerns right now are the core voltage and QPI Link readings in CPU-Z. It shows the voltage as 1.168 (under no or very low load) and the QPI Link at 3070 (the Bios shows a QPI Link at around 6100 Mhz. Why would there a difference?
Also as the load increases the core voltage decreases. Is this normal?
I'm using MSI's Control Center to (only) show the voltages on the Basic Overclocking page.
Other Voltage settings (MSI control center readings):
VTT:1.14v (1.2125v)
PCH:1.10v (1.097v)
CPU PLL 1.80v (1.80v)
Another weird thing is that I can only change the base clock and multiplier with X.M.P. Disabled.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Steve
