I recently attempted a slight overclock on my 13600KF just to experiment. I opened XTU and, since I wasn’t aiming for a major jump, I thought the automatic tuning would be a safe starting point. The results showed a P-core ratio of 54, an E-core ratio of 43, and a voltage offset of 0.002. It performed well in games and Cinebench, but when trying to obtain an OCCT stability certificate, it displayed a "Root error" after about two minutes. What should I do to troubleshoot this? From what I’ve read online, most users set their Vcores around 1.3 for overclocks above 5.3 GHz, but I’m still unsure if that’s the right approach.
Thanks!

Remove XTU and reinstall it manually. Avoid using auto settings as they often cause issues.
