For CPU and VCCSA Current Capabiity, what is best settings?

thanks

quoted directly from Raja:
"CPU Current Capability: Increases the power threshold before over-current protection limits power (either by shut-off or throttling). A setting of 180% is ample for all types of overclocking."
"VCCSA Current Capability: Increases the power threshold before over-current protection limits power. Increase to 140% if running 64GB of memory or if running memory speeds in excess of DDR3-2133."

And now for my two cents.
CPU current capability should be fine at 150% unless looking for that extreme oc or clocking at sub-ambient temps.
It is to my understanding that setting a higher current capability does not actually provide more current until it is needed. Setting a value higher than what you may need shouldn't negatively impact anything except VRM temps.

Hope this helps!
