Help get my voltage down (SB-E 3820)

[estebanrey]

Hi all,

I currently have my PC (see my sig for complete details) running stable at 4.75GHz @ 1.42v on my i7 3820; but I have other 3820 owners telling me my voltage is too high for that setting. Trouble is, when I try and lower it my rig just fails any stress testing, giving me a BSOD 124 (not 101 which you'd expect for under voltage though) at say 1.39v.

Here are all BIOS settings listed, the ones I have changed are in bold in the others are the stock settings.
