Windows and BIOS troll me

Is it normal thing 7C difference?

Yes, my 4 core runs at 7-8C difference between the coolest and warmest cores during encoding.

Now i got stable on 4.4GHZ 4.3 cache ratio and manual core voltage 1.200 average 70C and spikes max 74C during stresstest.
Cache voltage is set to auto.
How can i check what is currently my cache voltage is? Bios doesnt show it. Is it called LCC/ring in HWmonitor?
I want to set cache voltage to manual and wonder how much voltage should be set for 4.3 cache ratio? Same as core voltage?

Cache ratio doesn't seem to have much of an effect on performance. I'd just change "auto" into whatever the default value is, and then see how high it'll go and remain stable.

Well, i was running benchtests with each time i change cathe ratio and it does effect it a little, using cinebench r15 on 4.4 GHZ
cache ratio multiplier:
3.6 309cb
3.8 313cb
4.0 316cb
4.2 319cb
4.3 324cb
I mean its not a big deal, so does cache voltage called LCC/ring in HWmonitor?

5% speed boost for a 20% increase, more than I thought.

Yeah, the ring voltage is probably that.

If i have set core voltage to auto it would run much higher at least 0.100V more than i set manually. So my question is the same about cache/ring voltage, atm ring voltage is 1.3V. How good idea to set it lower and will i get lower cpu temperatures by setting it down? or it doesn't effect on cpu temperature like core voltage does?

 

[Flapdrol1337]

I don't know, I increased it to somewhere over 4, as that was pretty easy and didn't touch it after that.

Cant find on google what im looking for.
I read that cache and core ratio for best results have to be 1:1
When i have cache ratio 44 voltage is 1.301V, but when i set it higher to 45 it jumps right to 1.408 which is a huge difference. Can anybody tell me how can i tune voltage properly? Can i run 45 cache on lower voltages?
