Newbie Undervolting my 270k plus. Is this normal?
Hi I'm new to OC. So I want to check if I'm doing the correct things. My PC setup:
* Ultra 7 270k plus
* ram: corsair ddr5 6000mhz cl40(I set to cl 34, 1.42v), with samsung die
* mb: gigabyte z890 eagle gaming wifi 7
* Air cooler: Valkyrie DL125 (260w capacity)
* system: ubuntu 26
I'm running OCCT CPU extreme steady auto AVX2 test. Previously at stock setting it directly went up to 95c+. So I plan to just undervolting it without OC to get the stock performance stably with least power.
So what I set in bios is I set DVID to -200mv. And I the same test or the CPU+RAM test in OCCT for an hour.
Now the max power is like 150w at around 70-75c with P0 core max VID to be 1.31v. I'm not so sure whether I'm doing the right thing.
