x79A-GD45plus SpeedStep + Lower Vcore?

Hi!

Im running a MSI x79A-GD45plus with a i7-4930, What im trying to do is get to a 4.2ghz OC, but keep the "speedstep" tech (or i guess you could call it TurboBoost, but up to 4.2ghz) (note i have this first part working already) *WHILE* also some how using a lower VCORE than the AUTO Vcore when the CPUs hit 4.2ghz (this is the part i cant get).


Like i said above, i have the first part working, that is speedstep/turboboost working up to 4.2ghz (i like how the cpu will go down to 1.2ghz/12x ratio when its idle, but jump up to 4.2ghz when there is load). My issue/question is, How can i lower the max Vcore, with the BIOS Vcore set to AUTO, the board goes to 1.33vcore @ 4.2ghz , which is higher than i want, id rather 1.26, but cant figure out how to set this in the options. (keep in mind with my current config, the vcore is .816 @ 1.2ghz, which i like, its the max vcore i want to adjust bc its just too high.

THANKS!
