Have you experimented with offset instead of an LLC? Try adjusting a higher voltage with a negative offset to achieve the desired result. I realize I don't need to modify the LLC at all by using the offset method.
I have my 1600x at 3.9 1.3v Prime small ffts stable for over 8 hours. Temperatures will remain consistent around 72-75°C.

It might simply be that the cooler isn't powerful enough for your CPU. Since it's a budget model, you won't achieve top performance. Even with a decent overclock, reaching 80°C is unlikely.

By the way, sorry for the delayed responses. I don't receive alerts for this discussion for a specific reason.

My AIO stopped working which caused instability on my PC and OC, especially memory OC. My Corsair 3000 kit was running at 3333 Mhz. CPU hit 85 degrees Celsius and began throttling or the PC crashed. Issues were widespread. If you're concerned about temperatures, watch for these signs. Hanging, black screen, blue screen, unstable performance. The AIO was over five years old—it was time. Here are my memory OC settings for reference. I don't see many people sharing Hynix CJR configurations. View: https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/co...470pro_r7/

I haven’t received any notifications either! That 80c temperature was strictly using the prime smallfft, which is meant to produce more heat than usual. I don’t believe regular use would have reached that level, but I stayed careful. Do you think my cooler isn’t performing well? It’s possible the thermal paste might be subpar.

No worries mate. Let's see how you're doing. Yes, Prime will deliver a lot of heat. But that's the goal. It provides maximum temperatures at a certain voltage. If it doesn't fail under Prime conditions, then it's really stable.
Yes, you can use other programs to create the load, but when I OC I need to know the maximum temperature for a specific voltage. Those who claim you leave performance on the table while testing too strictly aren't actually OC'ing their systems properly. They'll face random crashes and instability.
Do it correctly, and you'll steer clear of any headaches. If you need more assistance, feel free to message me.
