I lost the silicon lottery and received a 5950x with a questionable core (#6). If left unchecked, it could cause the machine to idle-reboot. By following advice from the forum, I managed to fix the problem using the PBO2 curve optimizer. After testing, at curve +6, the problematic core stabilized. My concern is whether running one core at +6 while others stay at -10 is safe. Are there any thresholds where some cores become positive and others negative?
