Hey, I just set up my I9 9900K with an X73 Kraken AIO cooler (360) and pushed it to 5.1 GHz. I noticed that only a steady 1.370V kept the CPU running smoothly. That’s a bit higher than usual—was it too much? The temperatures are still normal. In my Intel burn test, I achieved around 87°C on two cores and 70-75-80 on the others. Is this voltage level acceptable? Thanks!
