viewed a tutorial from optimum tech discussing methods to boost CPU and RAM performance. he demonstrated a feature named 'long duration package power limit' which restricts the power the processor draws. using the 10900k model, he noted that with this setting enabled at its default, it operated at the rated 125 watts. when adjusted to an unlimited value (4095 in the video), the chip consumed 198 watts. he tested two different boards and observed that under a blender simulation, the 10900k maintained a stable 4.9ghz clock when the setting was left unrestricted. considering your 10600k struggles at 4.9ghz and its inability to reach 5ghz, altering this configuration might improve stability. if you plan to change it, it could potentially help the CPU sustain higher clock speeds.

It won't improve stability. In fact, it can reduce it by running the CPU beyond Intel's configured settings. However, when overclocking, consider eliminating the extended power constraints.

It doesn't influence overclocking stability; it indicates PL2 (the brief boost above TDP) stays enabled during prolonged tasks. This effectively reduces the CPU's load, as it rapidly lowers clock speeds to meet the default 125W power requirement in long sessions.
