Cpu vid what is it

Jan 21, 67 0 18, You might be able to go lower, or get a higher clock rate. It's hard to tell until you try. Keep an eye on temps as well as stability. Of course, if you're happy with performance as it is right now, there's no harm in stopping there either. It's your call. Mar 20, 0 19, Hi and welcome to Tom's forum. Lets see The CPU VID setting establishes the absolute maximum allowable processor supply voltage experienced during transient conditions and is not the target idle voltage.

What the relationship between VID and Vcore? TJ Hooker Honorable. Apr 15, 0 10, Vcore is the actual voltage at the CPU cores. TJ Hooker :. What cooling are you using?

Basically you can lower the voltage as much as stability allow you. You can try lower it more and test stability, regarding this, 2 hours test is not enough. My last test for stability was 28 hours on y-cruncher. More important is test the rig on normal use, games, internet Safe voltage? Well I usually go high on this I will go until 1.

What happen with CPU life? Your posts are both informative and very clear. I will keep going, and have a better understanding of where my vcore should be, and how to progress further. I've seen some OC videos for my mobo, and although some are unclear on certain things, more often than not they point to LLC being a factor.

Can you explain that a little? Not sure if that should be another thread. You must log in or register to reply here. Audio 1 Apr 16, M which one is batter for gaming?

Vcore vs coreVID. Thread starter Maximiliano Start date Oct 26, Joined Nov 23, Messages 33 0. Hello guys, i was wondering whats the difference between Vcore and CoreVID so i google it , acording to most people CoreVID is voltage that the cpu ask for, the other hand Vcore is the voltage we actually give to the cpu.

I set my cpu to 4. Mussels Freshwater Moderator Staff member. Joined Oct 6, Messages 51, 8. Joined Mar 23, Messages 4, 2. This is where things get complicated. I'll try to keep it as simple as I can.

There are three things that the BIOS is constantly doing while overclock settings are applied. Check that CPU is achieving its target clock speed 3. Check that CPU is running at its target voltage I put those in order of priority, high to low. If it goes above 90C, it will slow it down.

As it slows down the CPU clock speed, it lowers the voltage. Now lets move on to the second thing I listed. The BIOS sees maintaining a constant clock speed to be more important than to stay exactly at the target voltage. If for any reason, the voltage you have set is inadequate to maintain the target clock speed, it will automatically adjust CPU core voltage to keep the system from becoming unstable.

Finally, after all that, it will check to see if it can bring the voltage any closer to the target you set. If it deems that bringing the voltage closer to your target will increase thermals to unsafe levels or cause the clock speed to be unstable, it will continue at the current voltage and ignore the voltage target you have set. It does this thousands of times per second.

When I use the word target, that means you want it to be at that exact setting, but the system understands that that's not always possible and will make corrections as necessary. Reactions: Name doesnt matter. Hello camf2xu, I think you're getting your terms mixed up a bit. VID is the voltage that the chip runs at out of the box, that is to say without being overclocked. VCore is the current voltage being pushed through the CPU. Thanks to Intel Skylake architecture, these chips run very well on low voltages.

I don't think you really need more than 1. Blow those out and you'll get 12V straight to the CPU, and that will be death of the chip. What are you using to overclock? Max VID is the highest voltage allowed without overclocking. The reason you're able to go above the max VID is because you've applied overclock settings. Max VID doesn't apply when overclocking. And if i had it set to variable thats when it could adjust the voltage on its own slightly. You are not setting a base voltage.

It can go above or below if it deems it necessary. What you're doing is telling it where you want the voltage to be, but it will adjust voltage as needed. In some cases, even completely ignoring your target voltage. This is why the world record for CPU overclocking was set on an Asus board. They're such advanced motherboards that they can even make changes to core clock while the machine is running.

Keep in mind that the world record was set on an FX cooled via direct contact with liquid hydrogen on an Asus board that had a modded BIOS installed. Don't expect to break world records without putting forth serious work.
