Hi people
When I go into the BIOS of my Z97 Extreme6 and I set a fixed cache voltage (Override mode) I do not see this value in the H/W Monitor menu, neither in the latest HWiNFO64. I have the latest official BIOS.
I will give an example. I set the CPU Cache voltage at 1.250V. I save and exit, I reboot. When I go back in the BIOS, in the H/W Monitor menu, I do not see the "1.250V" I have set. It always shows 0.560V or something, there.
Then I open HWiNFO64, the latest version. In the voltages, where it says CPU Cache it shows this 0.560V or around this value, again. It does not show the 1.250V I have set in the BIOS.
Finally, when I open the A-Tuning suite, yes, the value I have set is shown there. But it is a static value that never-ever changes. It is not a real-time value.
- Is my motherboard faulty or this is simply the way it works?
- Why is the Cache voltage value I set not showing correctly in the H/W Monitor menu of the BIOS, whereas the Vcore I set is shown correctly ? Does this mean that a Vcore sensor exists but a Cache voltage sensor does not exist, on this board?
I have also cleared CMOS following the instructions in the manual but it didn't resolve the problem.
Thank you.
