Question CPU VCORE 1.4 WITHOUT OVERCLOCKING (STANDARD CONFIGURATION)
Question CPU VCORE 1.4 WITHOUT OVERCLOCKING (STANDARD CONFIGURATION)
So i have my pc for a few months and just yesterday i started monitoring my cpu while gaming, i noticed that my cpu would hit a vcore of 1.4 v on cpu-z and on hwinfo. I think this is way too high for my cpu because i didnt change anything in bios nor did i overclock. i dont want to replace my cpu soon and thats why im asking if there is any fix for this? i have watched videos of overclocking and not even they reach 1.4v on vcore and my cpu hits 1.4v on vcore without even being overclocked.
here are my specs:
CPU - Intel Core i7-9700K
MOBO - Gigabyte Z390 GAMING X
GPU - EVGA RTX 2060 ko ultra gaming
PSU - Corsair RM 650
RAM - Corsair Vengeance LPX 16Gb (dual sticks)
Cooling:
Noctua NH-D15 - CPU Cooler
Hello there,
This behavior is quite common in most contemporary CPUs with multiple cores. It usually occurs when the CPU accelerates more during gaming and similar tasks. It tends to reach a peak briefly before dropping and then rising again. The fluctuations depend on the workload.
You don't need to be concerned. Could you tell me what temperatures your CPU reaches while playing games?
