The Advanced Tuning section provides many settings you can experiment with, but if you’re new to overclocking, the primary settings to focus on are the Processor Core Ratio, Processor Cache Ratio, and potentially the Core Voltage. This means that if you set the Vcore to 1.1V, and then add an offset of +0.2V, you will be effectively applying a Vcore of 1.3 volts.

Both “Core Voltage” and “Core Voltage Offset” sliders are added together when applied.

If you want to change the CPU Vcore (core voltage) to a specific value, simply select it with the “Core Voltage” slider.

When changing these settings, it’s best not to exceed changes of 0.05V at a time. This will add your current Vcore to the value selected. If you don’t know your default Vcore but still want to increase it, you can use the “Core Voltage Offset” slider. These can be increased in order to keep up with higher core ratios if you are encountering system instability. For a CPU to run at faster speeds, it might require more power in order to remain stable, which is where adjusting the Vcore becomes important. If this is the case I might need to switch to ThrottleStop.Another section allows you to adjust the Vcore (Core Voltage). I used XTU to undervolt my cpu and I'm getting minus 10-15 degrees off during stress tests and use -0.160v). > It is important because XTU is only for X and K processors. I asked about 'doc' because I couldn't discern if it was your signature or a codeword for something that I need to search.Īlso please forgive my broken english if it comes off rude. And I was curious if you were an Intel Staff on a customer account. I was just curious because I saw your profile and you had been an enormous help to the members. Just to be clear, I am not specifically seeking help from a staff member.

> Like the header on the home page says 'This is a community forum where members can ask and answer questions about Intel products.' And, I have the word '(Customer)' next to my name, just like you.
