What we have here is a failure to communicate.

vid refers to stock vcore, so "stock vid" is redundant.

When you are referring to an overvolt of the cpu cores, you should label it as something like "vcore" rather than "vid" because . . . vid does not mean what you seem to think it means.

Stock vcore is im not sure. I didn't stay at it long enough to care. Been fine tuning voltages tonight.

vid is assigned on a chip by chip level at the factory.

it is the value that is detected by the mainboard and fed to the cpu as it is the unique voltage that is the specification for that certain chip.

vid will of course range, and those in the know can expect higher OC's from chips with lower vid compared to other chips. not true in every case, but in controlled settings lower vid seems to correlate with higher OC's.

with that said the intel site gives a broad range of vid voltages, i was trying to get a real grasp of what that vid range is for clarkdale.
