issue regarding core voltage on 7700k

Dear OC ethusiasts!

I am currently working on a PC for a friend and am desperately failing to OC that little piece of shit.

The situation:
Asus Strix Z270G Motherboard, an i7 7700k + a h100i v2 AiO liquid cooler

During stresstesting the system on stock clocks using small FFTs within p95, the temps rise up to only about 65c°. Obviously some space to work with. Basically I've tried setting the core voltage manually, as well as as an offset and in adaptive mode. In each case the core voltage simply wouldn't run at the desired value, but instead stay either far below (in adaptive as well as offside), or be way above it (at manual mode), absolutely irrespective of whether speedshift/speedstep/c9 etc are disabled or not.

Has anyone of you got an idea what might cause this?

Thanks in advance!

Why would you even want to overclock it?
Have you got the latest BIOS version? Obviously there were issues with the z170 boards but i'd imagine the z270 would work out the box.

Only thing I can think off, that or resetting the BIOS completely
Updated everything already, unfortunately! Thanks though!

I'm pretty sure overclocking PC cause it.
