Should I Stick or Twist

44 @ 1.260v = Passed 15min and 1hour, Max temp 80
44 @ 1.250v = Passed 15min, Max temp 78
44 @ 1.230v = Passed 15min, Max temp 77
44 @ 1.220v = Failed! Blue screen after 5min, Max temp 74
44 @ 1.210v = Failed! Blue screen after 5min, Max temp 74

So now I know the lowest pass on 15min test is 1.230v do I just run a 1 hour test.. if it passes then thats stable lowest.. if it fails move up by 0.010v and re run 1 hour??
 
2 choices ;

Stick at 44 /1.230 with 77 degrees

or drop to 43 and try lower voltages to see how low the temps can go

77 is still a little high, and if you can get low 70s' at 43 then that would be a better option imo.
 
Im running 1 hour test for 1.230v. If it passes at least I know sweet spot for 44.

If I was to go down to 43 would I start from 1.230v and reduce?
 
44 @ 1.230 failed 50mins into 1 hour test, bluescreen
44 @ 1.240 passed but temp was 78 degree.

So based on these results the temperature didn't change much going from 1.260 to 1.240, so am I best just keeping the extra at 1.260 for stability reasons?

I will compare some 43 scores later on..

I ran a 1.250 test and it passed 1hour with max of 78. I will just keep this just now as testing gaming my processor barely reached 70..

I will do like you said and test temp comparison for 43 as the loss of 100mhz might be worth if temp drops a lot.
 
Ran the 43 tests you were recommending and these were the results:

43 @ 1.230 = Passed 15min test, Max temp 73
43 @ 1.210 = Passed 15min test, Max temp 73

Going from this I take it the jump down isnt really worth it and I should just stick with 44 @ 1.260?

Been currently playing Batman Arkham Knight and most the CPU temps has gotten was 69.
