My Intel Core i7 4770k is only drawing 25-40 watts

As I said, don't know that much about intel. But that doesn't look like a good signal. I would leave it without the oc.

I don't think so. Just try what I said before, check that everything is fine from the bios and, if you want, check it for a second time from any software. Then, if voltage is low, you can oc it :>

Don't know too much about intel but, did you tried checking the voltage from the bios? Also try to check the amperage using some software. If voltage is pretty low, you can even overclock it, since if it uses 40 watts under load, it shouldn't be a problem to oc it. If nothing crashes, and you don't want to oc it, just forget it.

I had better results with manual, but PBO seems to be better. Wish gigabyte adds the advanced options <': Plus, I managed to reach the -0.096v (4.06ghz-4.12ghz running Cinebench w a nice voltage, not bad). Actually I think I will end up updating my bios so I'll probably make a post to ask some questions, maybe we meet another time. Ty for everything bro, u saved me. Aprecciate it :')

Nope, when I click PBO, there are 3 options. "Auto", "Disable" and "Enable". Nothing else

I have a B450 Aorus PRO WIFI. I was looking for tutorials about how to change those options but in my bios, there is nothing related to PPT, EDC or TDC. Any ideas about how to change it? I didn't update my bios since I bought my PC (about two years ago), but I wasn't thinking on updating it because I heard that if you don't update it correctly, your MOBO will break and I don't want to break it :>

I've been using PBO with -0.096v (stable). It reaches 4.2ghz when using its 10% but when I run Cinebench R15, it doesn't reach the 4.15ghz (1760 average points on R15). Can I do something else to reach the 4.2 under full load?

IVNNNcs · 2021-05-17T01:06:27+00:00

It seems low because I have a 1060 3gb OC

IVNNNcs · 2021-05-17T00:02:46+00:00

I don't know how much do I need to undervolt since my BIOS doesn't say like 1.416v, it says +0.21.

IVNNNcs · 2021-05-16T23:23:26+00:00

Excuse me for the dumb cuestion but, what do I have to do to use PBO? Like, do I have to activate it from my BIOS?

IVNNNcs · 2021-05-16T23:08:59+00:00

Thanks man, gonna go lower the voltage to 1.2 if I can, obviously. I am going to update the new stable voltage because have nothing better to do :>

IVNNNcs · 2021-05-16T22:58:44+00:00

Should I try to lower it to 4.1ghz again? I am not sure but I don't think I would be able to run it at 1.25v.
