Hello all,
I was just wondering what are safe voltage numbers for a Ryzen 2600x. I can't seem to find a definitive answer for this anywhere online. On my new build with a 2600x (all settings set to default in bios on an AsRock B450M Pro 4 with no xmp) I am seeing in Ryzen Master as well as HWiNFO voltages that regularly spike up to 1.4v. Is this normal? I noticed that if I set Windows 10 to Power Saver under Power Options the voltages drop to .7 - .9 range and don't go above (the clock speed comes down too - as low as 2.1). On High Performance it ranges from 1.1 to 1.45 and on Balanced it ranges from .7 on idle up to 1.45 when actually doing something. The thing is that it jumps to the 1.4 range really quick. Even when I move my mouse it goes from .7 to 1.4 on Balanced. Is that normal? It seems like quite a spike. And is 1.4 safe to begin with? Should I keep it on Power Saver by default (and switch to Performance of Balanced when I'm doing work)? Would those low voltages give me better long term life of the cpu?
