Not sure if this should be under CPU or Mobo? But im getting some weird output from intel XTU on my rig and I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this before. I attempted to google but nothing came up that seemed like the same issue.

After a cold boot, Intel XTU ALWAYS reports wrong multipliers and voltages, different cores seemingly at random. The multiplier is always 12x when its incorrect. looks like this: https://imgur.com/H9ZmwFa

However, after a warm reboot or 2, XTU shows the correct values, looks like this: https://imgur.com/CIJSQj3

Any idea whats going on? Temps are solid, benching is stable. Are these values reported by XTU just cosmetic and in error or is there something else going on here?

Specs: 7980XE @ 4.3 All Cores 1.105v / 3.1 Mesh 1.105v on NZXT Kraken X72 360mm
C-States Disabled
EVGA x299 DARK
64GB GSkill Trident Z 3800 16-17-17-2T
Corsair 1600 PSU

Compare to HWInfo and see if the same behavior is shown there.

Also make sure you set the Power Mode to "High Performance".
 
PowerMode has been in 'Ultimate Performance' since im running Windows 10 Pro for Workstations. Same result happens when im in 'High Performance' however.
