Hi,
I’m just checking my overclock settings—3.85 GHz at 1.3V with the OCCT large data set for three hours, everything seems fine.
It crashed at around 1.2875V (just a tiny difference of 0.0125V).
My question is: what voltage adjustment or MHz reduction would give me some buffer?
Thanks.

I believe that if there are no issues with running your programs or games, you shouldn't stress them out with those tests—they're mainly for troubleshooting. They could easily pass any tests indefinitely while still encountering problems.

AMD indicates that up to 1.425v is possible if proper cooling is used. Adding only a slightly higher LLC should provide sufficient voltage when required while keeping temperatures manageable.

CountMike shared that AMD suggests up to 1.425v is okay with good cooling, recommending only a slight increase in LLC frequency. He also mentioned reducing the clock speed by 50Mhz, which now runs at 3.8GHz while maintaining the same voltage. He wondered if there would still be sufficient headroom for additional adjustments.

To preserve for what purpose? Don't assume a much lower frequency would go unnoticed, and even standards would remain within the range of statistical variation.

I believe it's beneficial to have an extra voltage source... please forgive any mistake.
the available LLC options on my BIOS are auto, medium, high, and extreme.
right now it's set to auto for both VDD CPU and SOC.
what option would you suggest? thanks.

Begin with medium settings and observe the parameters, but keep in mind you're still a long way from reaching any peak.

will attempt, but I don't get the phrase 'you are still far from any maximum' ??
sorry for any confusion, English isn't my first language

The maximum safe voltage as defined and advised by AMD.

if i have another question,
my performance never reaches 2 hours in AIDA64 regardless of the voltage i adjust, even when it fails on stock BIOS.
it only occurs recently with newer bios.
what are your thoughts on this?
