Yes they do but not adding 50% of speed and voltage. If that was real the CPU would be fried by now. There are a few settings in BIOS that when enabled, and if the system conditions allows it, memory speed and UCLK can drop speeds to save energy. In your case it would drop from 3000 to...

You mean red circle with white X?

Asrock X870E Nova WiFi here (with a 9700X) I build this PC about over a month ago and right at the first days I was playing around with FCLK:UCLK:MCLK speeds plus DRAM voltages. I noticed that when DRAM voltage was lower than it should for the given speed the temp reading of the 2nd chipset was...

Most likely the case, the reading stuck on the lower temp value (see 27C as min on HWiNFO64) On the good side if the fans are on the driver control it continues to read the temp correctly (internally) and adjust rpm as it should. The real problem is when someone uses a third-party software fan...

What CPU you have with that B660 board? VRM (voltage regulator modules) are around the CPU socket, usually under some heatsink. Theses modules take 12V and convert it into what the CPU needs (0.6~1.5V) to operate. Each board has many VRmodules. They split the CPU current (Ampere) into multiple...

This could be a board BIOS issue. HWiNFO just reads/reports what settings are stored on the memory controller. Maybe a BIOS flash to newer version (if available) could fix this... (?)

Because these are only the JEDEC profile specs and not for the XMP/EXPO profile(s) Thats why here you see up to 2400MHz

Yes it is for DDR5 6000 Its supposed to run 1:1 for MCLK:UCLK Same here

Yes I have HWiNFO running with the system all times so I can monitor whatever interests me during all my tasks/games. Its the geek's monitoring heaven (tool)software...

Your system bus clock should be at 99.8MHz instead of a round 100MHz. If you want to make it 100MHz then you can do it in BIOS by disabling the "Srpead Spectrum" setting.

So true... Boards are pushing the default limits on Intel CPUs just to make themselves look good on reviews = selling point. 125W long term and 180W short term should be more than plenty for gaming. On the other hand if the system is used for something like rendering and/or editing and such then...

CPUs today have auto shutdown protection on critical temperature which in most cases is 105~110C, some up to 115C even. If this 99C was a recent thing and your CPU was not running there for weeks or months then it will most likely be ok. Some CPUs have operational limit at 100C and others at...

Like @Dalai said the DDR4 3200 is not running at 3200MHz but at 1600MHz. The 3200 is the effective speed since DDR means double data rate. So the correct way to say it is that DDR4 3200 is a 3200MT/s (MegaTransfers/s). Now you see 1066MHz becaue you DRAM runs at 2133MT/s instead of 3200MT/s...

Prefer TBP Total Board Power which includes everything the card has on. GPU, VRam, fans, leds and so…

Missclick? What does that even mean? I use the download page of HWiNFO for over 10years now, for almost every non-beta version and a lot of beta versions and never got a virus.
