CPU operates at elevated voltage during idle state...
What calibration of the load lines are you performing? If you're running at normal speeds, the minimum or second lowest LLC should suffice; you might also consider a slight undervoltage. I have a 1600AF at a -0.150 offset and a very low LLC, keeping all cores at 1.00 volts while idling or slightly boosting to 1.05–1.10 volts. My 2700X uses a -0.125 offset with the second lowest LLC, staying below 1.4 volts constantly. I aim for the most stable voltage range to allow the CPU to manage temperature efficiently with minimal power consumption and high efficiency.
