Question Seemingly weird Ryzen 5 Voltages

[epiczombiekill]

I just upgraded to a Ryzen 5 1600x and was curious about the voltages I'm seeing in HWmonitor

At idle I'm seeing 1.4-1.46v, but under load with P95 I'm seeing 1.2v, temps are a tad high at idle 40c-48c though under full load at 4.1ghz it doesn't go above 70c
Everything in the bios is stock other than some custom fan curves

I've heard 1.4v+ is dangerous for these so I wanted to check to make sure it's safe, though I ran my 4690k at 1.45v for the better part of a decade so I'm assuming as long as temps stay in check it will be fine, but any advice/info would be greatly appreciated

Thank you all in advance

Hey there,

What mobo are you running, and what bios version?

I'd suggest by starting with a vcore offset. If you are hitting 1.4+ regularly at idle, then you could use an offset like 0.10, which would bring the voltage down to about 1.3 which should be fine to run the chip at all core load (3.9ghz)

Just to be clear, running Prime95, you are only hitting 70c? You need to test the CPU with small FFT's for stability testing. I suspect your temps will go very high, up to 80+. What cooler do you use?
