Hi, I have an Asus ROG notebook with a i7-4710HQ and latest version of HWiNFO64.
CPU is Haswell, so with the integrate voltage regulatore FIVR.
I OCced to 3.7 an all 4 cores and during stress test with AVX2 (AIDA64 FPU for example), after some minutes I notice some throttling caused by VR thermal limit.
In these conditions, Max Power is above 80W, so it's quite normale for a CPU of 47W TPU.
HWiNFO shows IA: VR Thermal Alert and RING: VR Thermal Alert on Yes.
My question: is it the VRMs on the motherboard or the integrated FIVR on the CPU package that hits the VR thermal limit?
Thanks in advance![Wink]( "Wink")
