As the title which is the best P95 version for 3950x and which settings for stressing ?

Also what's the general consensus these days for the (subjectively) best marathon for stressing for Ryzen ?

Currently I'm using R20, RealBench, IBT, Aida64, geekbench + P95 is there anything else I'm missing or are these good enough ?
 
If you wanna hammer the cpu and really stress it, VRM's etc small FFT's is the way to go.

I have no clue with Ryzen but for intel i generally stress for about 30 mins, if its gonna crash it will do it within this time period.

P95 is generally the most stressful.
 
But what settings ? I realised I'd been using an outdated P95 (26.6) so it's kind of made me restart my stress testing, on old AVX1 prime I could run at 1.225v and hit 90 degrees on x62 kraken, new prime with avx2 1.225 hits thermal limits. Even as low as 1.18v it's hovering around 93 but Cinebench R20 is only 69 degrees (was previously around 75 @1.225v) so I'm left wondering am I hitting the chip too hard with Prime (custom 128k-128k inplace 5 minutes, got this from watching buildzoid) in which case what are realistic settings to find a suitable voltage v temp (should I disabled AVX2, although this is counter productive as it would mean I'm not AVX2 stable).... or should I try reseat my kraken and see if that does anything, although I don't think it will as if it was poorly seated I'd be seeing terrible temps in CB too and even Realbench for 8 hours stress was only around 80 degrees @ 1.225v?
