High voltage levels at 13,600 kilovolts
AUX serves as the input voltage for internal voltage regulation in various CPU voltages such as VCCSA. The standard is around 1.8V, and increasing it to 2V can sometimes improve memory stability while slightly boosting efficiency—though it's not essential. What's important is that the AUX voltage stays above all internal voltages derived from it, and it usually works best within a specific range depending on your task. For 3200MT/s CL16, a stable 1V is sufficient. With 3600CL14 or faster, especially when using quad rank memory (like 128GB RAM), the system needs about 1.35V for stability, which is still safe. In some cases—particularly in Gear 2/4—excessively high voltage can cause problems, but in DDR4 systems on Gear 1, such levels are unlikely to be harmful over time.
