Are there any issues with the voltage or another concern?
Are there any issues with the voltage or another concern?
Standard BIOS settings for the CPU are reliable, but your BIOS could be old if you're seeing excessive heat. Updating your BIOS might help achieve a more modern configuration.
Some Asus boards may behave differently. The voltage should stay around 1.5v or higher. There’s an overvolting problem reported with these boards. @ElectricityGoBZT reviewed your BIOS and found no SVID behavior feature. In advanced mode, adjust the core voltage to 1.30v manually, restart Windows, and verify the readings. On this unit, the Asus Performance Enhancement setting might be contributing to the issue—consider turning it off temporarily. Also check the AI Tweaker settings.
Disabling Asus Performance Enhancement causes all cores to run at 5287MHz idle, regardless of programs or internet usage, and this behavior remains consistent even when HWiNFO or armoury crate are active. To achieve a stable setting, consider adjusting the VRM core voltage manually to 1.3.
I'm preparing to verify the information and request specific boards affected by this concern. The only known Asus board issue relates to AMD SoC voltage, so I'll address that point.
Normal transients can drop to 1.5 volts, while typical operation should maintain around 1.3-1.4 volts. If the system overheats, it may indicate a more serious problem.
Changed settings to BIOS default, verified cooler installation, removed plastic from the cooler. Follow these steps carefully. Any issues during this process are covered by warranty. If you handle voltages and damage your chip, you won’t be covered.
It's not just a guess. Check all discussions about overheating in 13th gen Asus boards and chips drawing near to 1.5vcore—this hasn't been a normal operating range since manufacturing began around 28nm. Definitely not the expected behavior for the chip at standard settings. The best CPU-Z benchmark run was achieved with a 13700 at 1.53v: https://wccftech.com/intel-core-i7-13700...cpu-z/amp/
