I attempted to run at 4.7GHz on 8700k starting at 1.25v, but it crashed progressively until reaching 1.29v, which seemed unusual. After that point, I began observing the Vcore during benchmarks. The images show idle values here: https://i.imgur.com/bBcb5uV.jpg and full load values there: https://i.imgur.com/T773EhC.jpg. Even though I set the BIOS to 1.29v, it didn’t actually use that setting during full load. It appears 4.7GHz would be stable at a lower frequency like 1.176v, but entering that value in the BIOS wouldn’t boot. Everything else is auto. Can I somehow make the system consistently use the exact frequency I enter? This might help achieve lower temperatures and get it working smoothly in both idle and full load?

Search for the LLC configuration related to Load Line Calibration that assists with vdroop. Adjust the setting by increasing it by one notch according to the available options. On my system it defaults to auto, standard, high, turbo and extreme, but on ASUS and similar models it ranges from 1 to 7 or similar. Be cautious as this can increase voltage slightly and push devices beyond safe limits.

I encountered the same problem with vdroop during my first trial at 4.8GHz over clock, and when LLC was set to 'high' I found a balance around 1.274v with occasional spikes up to 1.308v under stress tests like Prime and AIDA. It consistently stayed near 1.278v after some adjustments. Through much trial and error, I managed to resolve it.

Check the LLC settings... I hope this helps.
