Do you feel like Intel’s timed turbo isn’t quite transparent?
Do you feel like Intel’s timed turbo isn’t quite transparent?
if theres enough power and cooling why would there be degradation unless its overvolting the cpu which i doubt since that would void the warranty which would be funny if a cpu voids its own warranty under stock settings LUL they can sense VRM temperatures cant they?
Generally no. The 3770K shared the same turbo cap, according to Akira. This likely comes from socket and VRM considerations. Most boards don’t track VRM temps, and wear tends to increase when the CPU runs at high power, voltage, or heat. Akira added a couple of points—check your BIOS for turbo limits and adjust them if possible. Locked Intel CPUs (non-K/X/C) may allow a bit more, and sometimes it can be changed in Intel XTU if the BIOS hasn’t secured it.
Because of the same reason my P7P55D Pro handles 1.7 V Vcore, I'll trust you to reach your own conclusion.
