I started adjusting my AC/DC loadlines and small voltage variations to enhance performance. I’m facing some boundaries that are hard to modify safely. My Cinebench R23 results on multiple cores show peak performance around a 55x core ratio, and I can’t just boost the package power since the system blocks it with "IA: Electrical Design Point/Other." This seems tied to IccMax in HWinfo, which relates to Intel’s recommended limits. Given that, should I consider raising the power beyond 400A? Probably not—stick to what’s suggested. I’m still hitting around 20% of capacity in multicore tests even at 200W, and I’ve never seen 6GHz or TVB activation. If anyone has data, please share, but my main question is whether changing IccMax past the Intel guidelines is safe.
