Hi 8 pack, i have spent the last week reading everything i can find regarding CPU LLC and have the following understanding of it but would like to ask you if i have got it right or wrong as i do find it helps a lot with my oc:

Measure vdroop with LLC off, for this example it is 0.020v and the vcore is manually set at 1.450v in BIOS.

With LLC off max vcore will be 1.450v and vdroop to 1.430v
With LLC at 25% (low) max vcore will spike to 1.455v and vdroop to 1.435v
With LLC at 50% (med) max vcore will spike to 1.460v and vdroop to 1.440v
With LLC at 75% (high) max vcore will spike to 1.465v and vdroop to 1.445v
With LLC at 100% (xtreme) max vcore will spike to 1.470v and vdroop to 1.450v

If i have understood what i have read correctly then i assume that providing temps are fine and the max vcore does not exceed a level i would not be happy with for 24/7 then the LLC setting can safely be whatever i want it to be? Or is there more to it than my level of understanding?

Many thanks in advance :)
 
Thanks, i've read so many differing opinions on different sites, i reduced my cpu llc a few days back after asking on this forum in a previous thread. I'll leave it alone and try to get back up to 4.7GHz with the vcore (down to 4.5GHz now with reduced setting on llc). I believe that 1.500v is the max recommended if temps are ok, it's at 1.450v atm :)
 
Sorry to fire more q's at you.. I can get 4.5GHz stable at 1.450v (220x20.5) but if i go to 220x21.0 it is unstable even if i go up to 1.500v. If I try 225x20.5 it is also unstable at 1.500v. I must be missing something..

CPU/NB 1.2v
DRAM 1.5v
LLC high
CPU/NB LLC high
CPU overcurrent 130%
CPU/NB overcurrent 120%
CPU voltage frequency auto - spread spectrum off
CPU VRM Phase extreme
EPU Mode High Performance
CPU PWM Mode T.Probe
NB 2200MHz
RAM 2060MHz

Any suggestions :)
