Is the I5-14600KF running at a very high voltage of 1.35 volts by default an issue

[Aksel]

I have recently built a new PC with an intel 14th gen CPU and heard about the voltage issue, so i was wondering if my cpu is running at a normal voltage, it shows a value around 1.35 v in the bios and the VID max in HWMotnitor is 1.359 v, to me it seems like a very high voltage value for an i5 even though the system runs fine and only reaches 81°c when stress testing it with cinebench My build include -CPU Intel I5-14600KF -Motherboard Gigabyte B760 Aorus Elite AX -RAM XPG 2x16GB DDR5-5600 -SSD LEXAR 512GB NVME PCIEx4 -GPU ASUS DUAL RTX 4060 TI -PSU MSI 750w I just hope this isn't an issue since I used all my savings to build this PC to start working as a creator and I can't be disrupted with issues and eventually a physical damage in the cpu

@Aksel System running smoothly and getting good performance from your build is good. Regarding the voltage readings you’re seeing, for Intel’s 14th Gen CPUs, including the i5-14600KF, 1.35V is on the higher side, but it's not necessarily alarming. CPUs can vary in their voltage requirements depending on workload, power settings, and BIOS configurations. The VID is a value that the CPU requests from the motherboard for its operation. The VID max value you're seeing (1.359V) is typical for many CPUs under high load or during stress testing. It's designed to ensure stability during intense workloads.

81°C under stress testing is within acceptable limits for modern CPUs, though ideally, you’d want it to be a bit lower. High temperatures can sometimes lead to higher voltage consumption due to thermal throttling, so it’s a good idea to ensure that your cooling solution is adequate and functioning well.

Just pop into the bios brother and find the cpu voltage...stick it on minus offset and dial in a -0.500 offset, boot see if it works fine, play a game as stresstests dont always bring out flaws when it comes to voltage in my experience, can cinibench or OCCT test and it will be fine, then ya set up to play ya fav game and it will crash and bluescreen... so games do it in my opinion. But if it works fine, lower it again to say minus 0.700 offset and see if that works... So if your at 1.359v at idle ya should be dropping that to around 1.275v after the -0.700 offset... Again, if it works, keep going till it crashes, when it does crash, bump it back up say 0.100 to give youself abit extra on the stable side and your golden... I have mine at 0.750 and i havnt gone lower but i dialled that in when i built it and not had a crash in a month and its used everday multiple hours gaming and all other stuff... i think it will go lower but im happy with it for now... Never goes above 53c in gaming on a 360mm aio... But i do have real good cooling... cinibench it goes to about 67c max...
