Got a R7 2700, MSI B450i gaming plus AC, and GSkill FlareX 3200 ordered. Stuff should be here by end of week.
Question: What is the best tool to measure the vcore under load for Ryzen?
Was playing around with my wife's Ryzen 1600 system this morning and found that different programs report different values.
Ryzenmaster seems to only report what the vcore is set to in bios, which is 1.285.
HWMonitor reports CPU vcore at 2.5 something. That can't be right.
CPU-z reports it a 1.323 while running a stress test but it doesn't fluctuate as I would expect. When I stop the stress test CPU-z reports a brief jump to about 1.35 (which I assume is due to rebound from vdroop) but then quickly settles into something like .57 which seems way too low.
So when AMD recommends staying under 1.35 vcore to prevent degradation, how, where and what is that being measured?
