I'm having issues getting 'adaptive' Vcore to work on this board. If I set my target voltage to 1.20V, offset -1mV and Vdroop +50% it cranks up to 1.305V under heavy AVX (LinX, so worst case scenario) load. Why does this happen?
Someone told me it's due to the board's IA DC loadline correction but I haven't seen any BIOS controls for it. When I use a less power hungry bench (RealBench), the voltage 'only' jumps up to ~1.246V.
What should I do? Set a higher target and more negative offset or the other way round? I'm wonder what do you guys use when running in adaptive mode.
The reason why I'm trying adaptive out is because it seems like it's yielding great temperature benefits with a bit of Vdroop added. I'm barely hitting 80 on the hottest core when running RealBench in adaptive mode @ 5.1GHz.
Somehow adding -1 AVX offset prevents those voltage overshoots...
My plain understanding was that the adaptive 'target' voltage was the absolute max you'll see and adjust it with offsets, e.d target 1.30V -50mV would run 1.25V unless it sees heavy CPU load.
