Gigabyte Aorus master is stuck at 1.6 volts core voltage.
You're facing a tricky issue with your new setup. The high temperatures and unstable Vcore suggest something is off in your motherboard or BIOS configuration. Try checking the BIOS settings for fan control and ensure the fans are properly connected. Also, verify that the CPU cooler is functioning correctly and not overclocking unintentionally. If the problem persists, consider consulting a professional or checking for any firmware updates.
If you can boot and your voltages are stable, we can pinpoint the issue.
Yes, a defective motherboard could be responsible for the issue.
I experienced the same problem recently. After purchasing a x470 Gaming plus, my R5 3600 Vcore started increasing to 1.4V within 5 to 10 seconds on Windows, regardless of BIOS adjustments. It seems I completely reset the BIOS, and it appears not to reach 1.7V. I’m unsure why this happens. It doesn’t seem like a power supply issue since it worked fine with my old Mobo. It’s typical for the BIOS to begin rising after a short time on Windows. Could be an OS-related issue? I can keep the Vcore stable with my AIO, but I haven’t run any benchmarks. (<100°C) If anyone has insights, please let me know. Also, it seems the CPU frequency shifts to 4150MHz, which I can adjust via Ryzen Master, unlike the Vcore. Other voltages like DRAM and SOC are fine, except for VDDP... It’s quite strange.
