It also says that CPU-Z has yet to be upgraded to correctly read Haswell voltages, so they monitor it themselves to give an accurate idea of what the actual voltage is.
Anyone have an idea on the max recommended voltage by Intel? I know with Sandy Bridge it was 1.5V, so I'd like to know what I'm working with on Haswell.
Those 0.9 V could just be the idle voltage, not the real voltage that's used when load is at 100 %. He perhaps didn't use fixed voltage settings, instead offset.
No need for a link. There is no way it did 5gz with .9 volts. It probably has a c step enabled still or as we already know cpuz has to update to read it correctly.

I also want to know. I know max voltage for 22nm is lower so I expect it to have about the same a IB or even a little lower., which was 1.35 max safe I think.
Yes this is my first post. I have been lurking the forum for a few months until I decided on my build, but I had to say something on this.
I have to call BS on this.
To summarize the hour long video. Asus has tested over 700 CPU's and have said it is about a ten percent chance to get CPU to 4.8 with extreme water cooling solution.

For the voltage, you guys could look into what people say/said about Ivy Bridge. It's the same 22 nm and 3-D transistors with Haswell. In practice it wasn't that important as you would be battling with temperature with typical cooling and without delidding. You couldn't get very high with the voltage anyways. Ivy Bridge was hitting its self-imposed limit and throttling pretty early, below 1.4 V or something.
From what I've read, here's my understanding...
-set voltage to 1.25V
-set multiplier to desired clock.
-if you can only boot 4.3GHz, you have a bad chip.
-if you can boot 4.5GHz, you have an average chip.
-if you can boot 4.8GHz or higher, you have a great chip.

@4.6Ghz/1.15V is a great chip if stable.
@4.6Ghz/1.2v is a good chip if stable.
@4.6 Ghz/1.2v is meh only booting into windows.
@4.6/1.2v is a bad chip if it crash.
Seems in line. Wish mine is a good one, still shipping GOGO UPS GO FASTER!
