I’m seeing CPU VID = 1.418v at max stock frequencies on my i7-14700K - is that too bad? Should I return it and wait for another opportunity to get another piece? I hoped I’d find more info in this thread but so far I only found one person with a 14700K there and their max VID=1.379

if you are using MSI pro z790p ,. this will help (im using this board);
what you see VID value in HW monitor apps,. is useless ,.( its only used to correct , error readings in power draw)
use VCore (like u/Cradenz said); if you want currect power draw reading then change DC loadline values)
