2. Asus overvolts. So for me to say this is actually at default vcore can be a little misleading. I am weary of the "overvolting" and actually am becoming quite unsure if the board and probe are giving true readings. Wish there was some way to really check once and for all.
By the way, I am using an alpha 8942 and YS tech adjustable RPM fan which is fairly quiet as well.

175 at default vcore!!!
Gonna pump her up till she just won't do it. Will do some benchies later!
now it is 180! Default vcore!
Make it 185!!! This is crazy!!!
187 at default!

nice

! why would you want to undervolt? the Intel hs/f is pretty quiet, and at 3300MHz+ you're going to be needing some pretty nice cooling, right

?
