    Well, I finally got it!!! It took awhile but here's 3 massive spikes.




    EDIT: BTW this is with Load Line Calibration Off, so normal/intel spec vdroop/vdrop is in effect.


    UPDATE:
    My 12v dropped at the same exact time the first vcore spike occurred. Indication of my psu failing
    and causing these spikes? Maybe! Could be if the psu 12v rail is failing and the VRM may be overcompensating the
    vcore causing the spikes.
