Hi Martin, hopefully some simple questions for you.
The system is an i5-3570K Ivy Bridge processor in an ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 board.
I'm using the current Beta, hw_431_2075.
As you know, HWiNFO64 displays each of the processor core's VIDs (four for this CPU) and a single Vcore value. I understand that the Vcore value may not match any of the VID's displayed.
Questions:
Is the Vcore value truly the Vcore value (given the data available to HWiNFO64) or is it a VID value, given this system?
If it is really a VID, how does HWiNFO64 choose a single value from the four VIDs? Is it the maximum, minimum, or what?
Although we have four VIDs, one for each core, the processor has and uses only one Vcore value, true or false?
Given your answer(s) to those questions, does that also apply to an i7-2600K processor in the same mother board?
Thanks, HWiNFO is the best!
