i have my vcore set to 1.35v in bios, when i get into windows it shows as 1.34v w/ everest. when i do any sort of benchmarking or orthos or gaming or anything that bumps my cpu over 50% load, i drop to 1.33v

is this normal?

edit: my temps are hitting 53c [61c core1, 63c core2]

short answer:

It is normal,

voltage drops under load, how less it drops ; how better it is.

aight ty, i didnt know it drops under load too. seems odd to me, i thought it just had a droop between what bios said and what windows said.
