In Bios stock vcore is around 1.024. However when Turbo Boost kicks in it is 1.156. And with AVX loads it is reaching up to 1.21. So now I understand the basic mechanics here. Manual overclocking is the way I need to go and I can reach even cooler temps with higher frequencies.
By the way I also regret a bit about buying MSI z87-g43, since it has fewer power phases than most of the z87 boards out there and the quality of VRMs are questionable. And I wonder if it will block my future overclock stability&durability. I was a bit hasty before the long awaited upgrade and looks like I've made a small but somewhat important mistake here. However I can fix this and switch to a Gigabyte z87x-d3h (but as far as researched dozens of people are having problems running with 4 sticks of RAM on that board and no solutions yet so far). Any suggestions?
