I've been using this computer for a year now. I only enabled Intel Turbo Boost and Multicore Enhancement, which gave me 4.9Ghz across all cores. Recently, I decided to overclock it to 5.1Ghz with the auto setting, without changing any other parameters like voltage. After running some benchmarks, the Vcore stayed below 1.280V. Is this typical? If I push it higher to around 1.3V, would I see any benefits? Also, the temperature never exceeded 72°C.

If conditions are steady, voltage remains controlled, and temperature is acceptable, everything functions properly.
