    You mean to say this can damage the cpu in some way? (even at lower levels?)

    I ran my board like that for 2 days.... :|
    And that was RIGHT around the time my setup started to act up...
    Pretty darn close, 48hrs within the time my setup was acting up "I think".
    If not maybe 2 weeks absolute tops, but still close to the time my system became completely unstable.

    I can understand the 50%.
    With it you could keep a halfway low vcore level, and the droop would be less then 100%.

    Am I making any sense lol?

    What's wrong with say disabling llc completely, and just upping the vcore until it's stable again?, that will damage the cpu somehow?
    I hope not...

    From my experience it seems I needed more vcore with it disabled.
    But it fluctuated less, some things acted a bit better but alot of stuff acted like my vcore was to low.
    Since it was easier to get things running stable at lower voltages with it enabled I switched back.
    Realy guys you don't have to believe me......... Read the white papers for intel or AMD.......

    LLC option is out of spec end of story. They obviously have there reasons.

    Use it with caution.

    I merely suggest 50% for air, obviously if your on ln2 you really have no concerns for the cpu so blast away...also even at 100% at the top end on ln2 there is still a tad droop which is good.

    In the end its your chip however, fell free to blast it with 100% LLC on air

    a little droop is not a bad thing, no droop is bad.

    Nothing wrong with not using LLC but it will be harder to get higher clocks stable without using excessive volts at least with the majority of asus boards I have used.

    Take into consideration I am the one that requested these options, I am very familiar how they will effect the board or cpu

    I've got no strings to hold me down.
    To make me fret, or make me frown.
    I had strings but now I'm free.
    There are no strings on me
