Tried playing around with my 10900K overclock a bit more

I was previously stable at 1.28v for 5.1 Ghz all cores and 4.8 Ghz AVX and Cache.

Out of boredom I was curious if I could get it to 5.2 all core, and it managed to do so almost stable at 1.3v, and so far fully stable for a few days at 1.31v.

I was also able to push the AVX and Cache to 5 Ghz at 1.31.

Temps barely manage to remain under 95c in IBT on a 280mm AIO so I wont be able to try for any higher, for 24/7 gaming under 85c, though I will need to underclock / undervolt over summer. The temps could be improved with faster fans, but my 1400 rpm ones are already noisy enough at full load.

Also curiously I was able to lower my VCCIO to just 1.12v for my 4.2 Ghz CL16 Micron E die, which is still alive being ran at 1.54v since I got my 10900K about a year ago.

The only problem is stil lbeing stuck with my 1080 Ti when I've been wanting ray tracing / RTX 3080 since its launch day, I just checked the threads for this and people that ordered on launch day are still waiting (I wanted a reference one which doesn't look like its ever going to happen).

What LLC are you running and what is the Vcore reading under load (not vid)?

Actually it turned out that 5.2 Ghz was unstable with all cores loaded even up to 1.34v in bios, it was just running in games, but I was able to get Intel's finetune thing and have set it to 5.2 Ghz with 4 cores enabled instead.

LLC is at level 7, and 1.31v is still needed for the cache and AVX, turns out that both also run at 5.1 Ghz at that, I just previouly had them at 5.0, or I can back it down to 1.28v with lower cache and AVX.

Vcore reading in CPUZ still only shows at 1.2v though, and VID in core temp goes up to 1.29.
