I'm new to AMD platform. I could see CPU VCore intermittently around 1.4V when system is idle. Is it possible to use a fixed (and lower than stock) voltage if overclocking is not needed (with XFR still enabled)?]]> Sun, 03 Dec 2017 15:05:06 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6804&PID=40350&title=cpu-overclocked-or-not-under-default-bios-settings#40350 <![CDATA[CPU overclocked or not under default BIOS settings : xxxin, I suspect you are seeing...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6804&PID=40324&title=cpu-overclocked-or-not-under-default-bios-settings#40324 Author: MisterJ

xxxin, I suspect you are seeing the effects of Cool-n-Quiet which at my last look cannot be disabled in the BIOS.  Enjoy, John. ]]> Sun, 03 Dec 2017 05:21:05 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6804&PID=40324&title=cpu-overclocked-or-not-under-default-bios-settings#40324 <![CDATA[CPU overclocked or not under default BIOS settings : I have ASRock X399 Professional...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6804&PID=40319&title=cpu-overclocked-or-not-under-default-bios-settings#40319 Author: xxxin

I have ASRock X399 Professional Gaming with Threadripper 1950X. With the default BIOS settings, I see overclocking settings are set to Auto. When I check voltage for CPU VCore with HWInfo64 under WIN10, I see it fluctuating when the system is idle.

Is the CPU overclocked automatically with default BIOS settings by the motherboard? I don't need overclocking. I do want XFR. And I'd hope to lower CPU voltage if possible.
