Isn't that just the current? Its not the iccmax. Its icccurrent. As in its currently the current. lol. jk. idk.
I just want to make sure its safe for iccmax to be so high on this cpu. Surely volts aren't always going to be 1.
Yeah I guess it should be. Since even at 1.5, it wouldn't be that much. If 88watts is all you're drawing. Its probably just me being paranoid from having that cpu die even at low voltage. Even though who knows, might not have even been related to power delivery.
He won't pass 148w with a 10% swing unless he manually sets higher v-core. And being a locked cpu, it won't apply past max VID anyways; whatever that may be. Perhaps could force constant v-core through LLCmax, but I don't see the point.
Under-volting the cpu is useless because he has adequate cooling.
The original thread was something about a bios update and NOT utilizing the full 148w in the meanwhile trying to under-volt because of some degradation hyper fear, now this being the third or forth thread about the same system.
I'm not certain what all the hyper fear is about. He's running one of the lowest end models available. If it blows up from absolutely no overclock ever, then he gets a free cpu through RMA either through the retailer or Intel.
No the IccMax won't matter. He needs to just leave all the shit on auto and set XMP and play the video games and be normal and happy and stop making threads over and over about it. (my 2 pennies.) Wants to run cool and save power, use windows power saving power plan and save power with power savings enabled. This is a very most basic system setup. There's nothing to really do to it. Put cpu in, turn on, play games. This aint that complicated.
