    For the people who have the I7-6700, can someone please tell me the default Processor Core ICC MAX amperage value? (in the CORE tab) Mine shows 100 but i could have swore it was 90. This tool has always been wonky for me and i should have taken a screenshot and i know better... thanks!

    you cant overclock this processor, the only thing you should matters is the voltage. you can make a good undervolt on core and cache to reduce the temperature without decreasing performance

    Thanks I understand that. I'm looking for the default amperage setting. I need to validate that Intel Extreme tool didn't change it. If you don't set a default and copy yourself or screenshot it can be difficult to remember what it was. (many other posts on the web as well)
