I’m currently trying out an i9 12900KF and decided to do a stability test on OCCT. When it starts I noticed the Volt reading on the upper left going straight to 1.5-1.51v constantly but staying at 59c-60c. And I was checking with HWInfo 64 that value and it came back as 1.50-1.51 on VR Out. While on the Core VID, it gave a reading of 1.38v constantly and the same for the temperatures (59c-60c).

So which one is right? Isn’t 1.51v a bit too much for the CPU? Is the 1.38v under load the right value? I’m very concerned as I don’t want to ruin the CPU.

This is paired with a Asus TUF Gaming B760-Plus WiFi D4 on the latest non-beta bios. Version 1663 - 2024/08/15.

I would greatly appreciate the help!

Thank you.
