So with Vcore 1.35. I should try going higher on qpi/vtt?
If so how much further should I go MAX... where would I not go near as far as qpi/vtt voltage?

Try vcore 1.37, and qpi/vtt 1.42. If that does not work, your on your own

If that works then walk down vcore, then qpi/vtt until you fail and find lowest setting for each...much faster with linx MAX memory testing with 5-10 runs than prime, but either works, you can run single prime once you decide what to run. Then, once you know what you require, YOU need to decide what max for vcore and qpi/vtt your willing to run at. But a few prime/linx runs at those volts are not going to hurt anything...providing you can control temps.

You might find sweetspot of your cpu is 21x196 or 4.1 instead of 4.2.

I am at 4.4 23x192 with 1.34vcore, 1.34 qpi/vtt. To get 4.5 to prime 1 hour I need 1.41 vcore and 1.44 qpi/vtt, in other words scaling goes to crap on mine after 4.4, and I am not going to use that much higher volts for 100mhz for 24/7.

And if you need high qpi/vtt for bclk 200 (like mine) then you may want to run at 21x196, no point in cranking either vcore or qpi/vtt (other than to figure it out) for 100mhz.
