Socket 1151 (Skylake + Kabylake) CPUs

WORK IN PROGRESS

Voltages:

Voltage Affects Safe range (daily use) Notes
Core Voltage Core and Uncore (aka cache) Up to 1.425V n/a
DRAM Voltage Memory Up to 1.5V DDR4 seems to break before IMC. Some sticks don't benefit from >1.4
VCCIO Memory Controller Up to 1.22V Increase to run higher dram mhz.
VCCSA Memory Controller Up to 1.25V Increase to run higher performance dram - high mhz and/or aggressive timings. More needed with more ranks of memory.
