My CPU VIN is 2.1v on auto. Most internet guidance (pinch of salt , I know) suggests leaving CPU VIN at default (1.8-1.9v) unless really pushing an overclock, and then 2.1v as maximum.
 
System info:
CPU: 5820k @ 4.4ghz, 100 bus, x44
Voltages: CPU adaptive offset +175, all others auto
Overclock set in BIOS, ver1.02
 
 
Even after reset to optimised defaults there is no change to CPU VIN, stays at 2.1v. Is this EVGA setup for the board?
Temps are no problem as CPU is under custom water loop, but is this voltage too high and should I try to reducing or just leave?
Any advice would be appreciated.
 

Yup, I noticed this "issue", too, and is manually dialing VIN to 1.9V.

Thanks Phil, I've been lazy on the quick & dirty route! looks like manual setting for this one.
Difficult to monitor auto voltages for this chip/mobo. HWMonitor shows too many, most of which don't tie up with anything I can see in BIOS and AIDA64 only gives core and VRM.
Only just looked at ELEET, which actually seems pretty good for monitoring voltage, with exception of core as it only shows offset.
