    Is auto 1.5v soc safe for ryzen 3800x?

    I just got a 3800x with asus x570 tuf board. i tried lowering the soc voltage to 1 volt then i logged in to see that hwinfo is reading 1.4v instead of the 1.3v i was reading earlier. every other setting is stock/auto. i then reloaded the optimized defaults of the motherboard and logged back in to see the soc voltage spiking at 1.5v. i have it turned off now waiting to figure this out. please tell me if im teh idiot or if there is something wrong with my system. maybe im reading something incorrectly.

    maybe my ram is so power hungry that the vdroop is that large?

      im sure if someone explains to me what that second soc voltage number really means then it will probably solve this. then i can feel better about freaking out over what is probably nothing.

        im sorry for taking your time reading this turns out i was using a out of date HWinfo and it was mixing up my cpu voltage with my soc voltage and confusing the crap out of me. feel free to remove this post or keep it for any other idiots like myself.
