Subject: ASRock Taichi X399 CPU voltage settings
Date Posted: 23 Sep 2017 at 5:55am
" rel="nofollow - Hello,
i have a Taichi X399 together with an Threadripper 1900X and a quad kit G.Skill Trident ZF4-3200C14Q-64GTZ.
Getting more and more familiar with the bios (1.60) settings, i noticed that the cpu core voltage idle stays always at around 1,4V. Under prime95 it drops at around 1,25V. So i changed the settings in the bios - cpu voltage at 1,325V und a LLC of level 3. Read out with HWINFO64 the results are the same, 1,4V idle and 1,25V under load. And the values are changing / fluctuating constantly, idle from 1,313 to 1,42, under load from 1,19V to 1,29V. With LLC 2 the same, with cpu voltage under 1,3V the same.
Is this a normal behavior? It seems that my manual settings in the bios have no effect. Everything else works fine without any errors.
Thanks Marcus

" rel="nofollow - Hmmmmm, I don't have one, yet, but .....
Have you enabled Overclock Mode to Manual?
Also, what is Voltage Mode set to?

" rel="nofollow - These are my actual settings:
Overclock mode = manual with 100MHz CPU Freq and Voltage = 3800MHz and 1.3V Voltage Mode = Stable Mode CPU Vcore Voltage = Auto CPU LLC = Level 3 VDDCR_SOC LLC = Level 3
Have i missed a necessary setting?

" rel="nofollow - Hi, Overclock mode = Auto Pstate0 FID = 98 (3800 MHz) Offset Voltage = +0.xxxx ??? Voltage Mode = Stable Mode CPU LLC = Level 5 VDDCR_SOC LLC = Level 5
See Video, Time = 6:15

Thanks! I set everything to auto except your settings. Pstate0 FID = 98 (3800 MHz) Voltage (uV) = 1300000 Pstate0 VID = 28 Offset Voltage = 0.00625
But this doesn't change the voltage on idle, it is constantly over 1,4v.

I tried the OC Mode OC 1 in the zen common options and with this the cpu voltage was about 1,36V. But i don't want to overclock, just an idle voltage under 1,4V.
So i set custom pstate0 to FID 98 3800MHz and VID 2a 1287500uV. But again - idle voltage over 1,4V.

" rel="nofollow - Next attempt was setting a fixed voltage instead of offset. With this the values in HWInfo VCore and CPU Core voltage SVI2 TFN were correct (under 1,3V), but all Core VID entries showing me 1,55V?

" rel="nofollow - Update: I have played a little bit more with the settings. Everything to auto except: Pstate0 FID = a0 (4000 MHz) Voltage (uV) = 1125000 Pstate0 VID = 44 Offset Voltage = 0.17500
Now i have a Core VID at 1,125V and Vcore at 1,296V Under prime95 the Core VID drops at 1,1V. I did the same with Pstate0 FID 9c (3900 MHz) with the same results. Running prime95 for an hour, no errors, temps ok.
I don't know it exactly, but i think the right combination of pstae0 VID and Offset is the trick?
