Alright well lately I have been reading a lot more from many people about how Intel has designated voffset and vdroop to perform and why it exists.
This leads me to think that simply using a higher vcore in bios is less destructive then vdroop modding(for a lower bios vcore).

Now I do understand that there are some extreme conditions where you are limited by the bios settings to go higher.
However, it seems more and more people are vdroop modding even at well below what is available.

It seems like if we trust Intel for the correct voltage limits and temp limits they can be trusted to know how power should be supplied.

O well just thinking out loud.. Anyone have any comments on this or some more info.. I am rather uninformed.

Sometimes the vdroop/vdrop is so extreme that they have to, because simply raising the vcore would put dangerous amounts of volts through the chip at stock, but its needed to keep it stable under load.

Yet we buy mobos with different types of PWM's and different amounts of power phases. and the fact that we raise the vcore higher than stock anways
