Thanks

As we all know, no systems work the same way.
So they are going to be just the reference.

Even though I can get to 5.0, it's just for the sake of "It can get there."
So by any means, this isn't for realistic use for me since it gets too hot.

4.8 is stable with HCI memtest, LinX (All, 3mb 20+ runs), Prime95 (22hours).

Also I manually put "additional turbo voltage" to +0.004.
It compensates for vdrop and voltage won't keep moving around or going higher like when it's set to "Auto".
Seems like this and LLC @ level2 is working well together for my system.
It makes the idle voltage higher since I'm on fixed voltage.
Also the additional turbo voltage makes the idle voltage a bit higher.
Which actually prevents getting too much of vdroop when intensive load.
But at the same time, LLC is there to prevent any unwanted voltage spike damaging the chip.
So finding the good combination I guess...

As for the CPU advanced setting and RAM timings setting, both 4.8 and 5.0 are the same so I only put 1 of each.
