R5 3600 output voltage specifications
You just assembled your new PC and were surprised by the high stock voltages, reaching up to 1.4V! Is this typical? (default BIOS setting is 1.374V)
Yes. The system will only utilize higher voltages under light load conditions to increase core speeds up to the top boost clock. When under heavy CPU load, particularly with multi-threaded tasks, the sustained voltage will decrease. To achieve more stable temperatures, you can manually adjust the processor voltage using Ryzen Master and set a specific peak voltage. This allows the cores to lower their speed when not actively in use.
