Tok64 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Hi, Im trying overclock my i3 7350K with nitrogen cooling. The problem is that i cant go pass 1,52v on core voltage in bios. I have managed to pass 1,52v in intel extreme tuning utility, but then it is current limit throttling and it start after I put 1,52v or more. My motherboard is MSI Z270-A Pro. Any tips? On more question how can I higher core voltage in bios? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Hello, I have not a large knowledge on newer motherboards, but did you disable all the current/T° limitations into the bios? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GeorgeStorm Posted November 10, 2017 Members Share Posted November 10, 2017 What have you managed to get with 1.52v? I don't know much about that board, do you mean it doesn't have the option to increase it further in the bios? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually if the vcore reach a max value, you could go higher setting an offset on top of that value. Looking at the bios there is the vcore option with Adaptive/Override + offset. Also looking at the bios there is some options related to the cpu protection in the DigitAll power tab that should be disabled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have try changing vcore option from adaptive to override + offset and max core voltage was locket in bios but in intel extreme tuning utility i could put the core voltage up to 2v, but it was current throttling after 1,52 on core voltage. I will try checking the cpu protection options and post result.Thanks everyone for trying to help me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The_Undertaker Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 It's more than likely a safety feature so that you don't blow the VRM on that board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
