Yes, a Vcore temperature of up to 1.4V is within normal operating ranges for many components.

COREVID refers to something different from the VCORE Reading you assume. Understanding the specific terms used for your CPU architecture is crucial, as misinterpreting a basic concept can lead to unnecessary adjustments. Even if it relates to Vcore, there are predefined and active values—Loadline calibration metrics—that affect performance. For instance, at idle with 1.4v, you'll see that voltage, which may drop slightly during tasks (like 1.34v or 1.36v) but return to 1.4v when idle or usage is low. Learning these definitions before making assumptions helps avoid unintended changes.
Everything appears standard. 70s gaming conditions match typical modern CPU temperatures. These processors adjust voltage more significantly than before, enabling greater performance spikes under light use or reducing power during heavy demands to stay within baseline power goals. If concerned, perform a stress test or benchmark to verify your maximum temperatures. The data you shared seems completely normal. Your RAM is operating at 2400MHz; if you have faster memory, ensure XMP is activated in the BIOS settings.
By default a slow speed of 2400MTs guarantees that even the worst cheapest ram will still work. Many people buy decent faster ram like yourself, no reason not to enable XMP to get the speed you paid for. 3200MTs should work 0 issues on your 10700k. Your ram was tested in the factory and 3200MTs was stable, going beyond that is 100% safe, it could just be unstable and cause the PC to crash. Many people try and find the fastest they can get without crashing. For everyone who doesn't tinker, XMP should be enabled.
