      Even my Riptide Z490 with a 12600k was running 160W and 1.31V and peaks at 1.41V for single core boosts. I genuinely thought something was wrong with the mobo since that type of voltage for 4.6GHz on modern cpus is completely insane. I then did UV and it now reaches the same all core frequency and R23 score at 1.14V and 120W. And if I let it go to 160W it boosts at 5.1ghz with 1.28V.
      I know that UV will always have an efficiency advantage over stock settings, but going from 1.31 to 1.14V with same clock is insane

    Intel wanted to break the 6 GHz barrier, no matter if all of the silicon is really up to it. I think the board manufactures has been informed by Intel, that they "should" put out "plenty" of voltage for that boost frequency.
    It's cheaper than QC of all the CPUs, and set a max voltage norm.
    Why not set a stock CPU boost freq a few hundred mhz lower, and have it running healthy voltages and stable?
    This CPU arms race just got into mad mode.

(like 5% of load at 1.55V is not great, but it probably won't noticably degrade the CPU either.

      1.35 is enough to do easily 5.5p/4.whatverE and use under 250w. And the kicker is that you still hit near 39k in C23. If you go all out on overclocking, have the big custom loops, you'll get maybe 42k, but at massive wattage increases & heat loads. For ~5% to 10% extra performance that isn't that relevant for most people.

    • @Wushu-viking
      @Wushu-viking 5 місяців тому +1

      @@bigpoppa1234 Exactly. Why it is bad that the motherboard vendors push the CPU so hard on "stock" settings. They should aim for stability/longevity on a stock settins profile. Just adding extra voltage for a tiny performance increase might lead to "stability" short term, right untill degradation.
      In the old days, most of those who choose to manual overclock, knew this trade-off with the performance increase.
      Most average consumers don't know this is happening, and they don't know the core temps either. High temps are not so bad if voltage is low(think laptops) But high temps are really bad if voltage is high. And the problem with electronic/semiconductor in general, is the hotter it gets, the more voltage is needed. So a vicious cycle.

    I can confirm that on my new Z790 Gigabyte board with the Intel Baseline setting, the board even uses more idle power, compared to when I just put all the powerlimits to "auto", which you know, turns any limits of.
    So without any power limit on my 13700K, the board uses around 21 Watts of idle power.
    However with the latest beta bios, this idle power usage goes up to 31 Watts, with except for the Baseline Profile, every other setting is the same as before.
    So I just down-flashed that bios back to the one before that. That baseline is no bueno.
