hi
So i built my new system, no problems, x570 matx asrock motherboard, ryzen 3700x , 32gb of corsair ram, etc.
i havent overclocked nor do i intend to, however i was watching some video which i have forgot the link, they were saying
x570 motherboards default voltages are too high.
Today i went in to check and my machine was running on auto, current status shows 1.44 vcore, 66c, (im using stock cooler) was running at 4.6ghz
i have not adjusted any cpu settings or much at all after installation all i did was go in and selected the xmp settings for the corsair 3200mhz ddr 4 kit which worked and is stable.
i did a search found a review on toms hardware for the taichi mb, in there it stated
"Finally, a test that really stands out! ASRock’s X570 Taichi consumed far more power at full load, and a quick search for the cause revealed that this board, and only this board, was running the 3700X at 1.31V and 4.1GHz under Prime95 small-FFTs. The other boards were running less than 1.2V, at 3.9 to 4.0 GHz in this test. "
So according to this under prime it was only doing 1.31v.
my machine was not running anything but a youtube video prior to me rebooting and going into bios checking temps and voltages. so at the time i was in bios i was only running bios right?
So i know voltages and heat over time kills systems, if my voltages are too high should i go in and make an adjustment, i really dont want to i like stock which is why i dont overclock but if this is set too high, why, and do i need to fix it.
Thanks all for input that help, much appreciated
