It's hard to give advice cause every system responds a little different. However, I think it's easiest when you start out using a fixed voltage with CPU LLC set to high. This allows the CPU to maintain an almost constant voltage. It won't drop or rise much between idle and load.
The system is stable at 4.7, 120.6 x 39, 1.35Vcc. Trying to go higher and potentially stabilize 5.0, as temps and voltages are still well within the safe range, but it's being difficult. It could also be that I haven't really had time to sit down and tinker for a few hours continuously.
LLC is set to High and manual Vcc, not offset.

I've been using AVX Linpack as it seems to cause higher temps, should I be using AVX Prime as well?
