I believe the highest voltage you should use for these chips is 1.6, so it might be wise to reduce it slightly.
I've been managing mine consistently since March without any issues. Not opposing your point, but there might be a better way.
Aim for 4.5ghz at 1.48v or below; 1.6v is significantly too high.
Honestly, I’d start with auto voltage and set LLC to high first—if it works, then fine-tune cool, quiet, and adjust clock/volt for low load.
I just confirmed your reading is 1.4. With this setup, you need to adjust the voltage multiplier. You can't simply connect a different voltage. A 1.6 multiplier will bring it up to 1.4v.
