Coretemp RC8 FX6300 VID

Post by Edmort1 »

After a month using Coretemp RC8 I look to VID in the gadget and see something odd. The reading was wrong.

My processor in idle is 1400MHz and VID is 0.8624V but in Cotemp it shows 1.2062V (wrong).

My screenshot of the CPU-Z and Coretemp:

Core Temp reads the VID value from the CPU directly. It doesn't always translate to the actual voltage applied to the CPU.

But, in the previous version the voltage steps always show the real readings.

There is a way to fix it?

I use this software and gadget for a long time. And it's very useful.

Please attach a register dump (Tools menu), and I will take a look.
Does VID ever change or is it at that specific value constantly?

File attached.

Values aways show the same values (wrong).

In Aida64 we see the correct multiplier (Base 200.62MHz):

4,112.71MHz [20.50x] [1.4250 V] [16.80 A] [PState Pb0]
3,811,78MHz [19.00x] [1.3625 V] [16.80 A] [PState Pb1]
3,510.85MHz [17.50x] [1.2625 V] [11.60 A] [PState P0]
3,009.30MHz [15.00x] [1.1750 V] [ 9.40 A] [PState P1]
2,507.75MHz [12.50x] [1.0750 V] [ 7.40 A] [PState P2]
2,006.20MHz [10.00x] [0.9875 V] [ 5.60 A] [PState P3]
1,404.34MHz [ 7.00x] [0.8625 V] [ 3.70 A] [PState P4]

I was also having the same problem where the VID voltage is showing far too high on my FX8320 after upgrading from RC6 to RC8.

Thank you Edmort1 for making this thread and submitting the bug report and thank you for fixing it, The Coolest. :)
