LLC relies on careful handling; avoid extreme usage and never rely solely on 24/7 operation.

The maximum LLC value is often used for LN2 overclocking. For further details, check the provided link.

CPU current capability defines the VRM shutdown threshold. The standard setting works well for most overclocking tasks. Only raise it if the motherboard stops when the CPU is under stress.

Keep an eye on the VRM temperature during adjustments—usually no problems arise.

On a locked CPU, leaving everything on auto or default isn't recommended because it could interfere with security settings. The goal is to maintain control and ensure the system operates safely under your intended configuration.

I understood, though I suspect it was disabled rapidly after the BIOS updates. It seems you might need an extremely outdated BIOS to achieve this now.

ASRock Z170 Pro4 American Megatrends Inc. P3.70 (06/23/2016)
ASRock quietly restores non-K CPU overclocking on non-Z170 boards.
Caution is needed when adjusting overclock settings.
Concerns about BIOS modifications for overclocking on non-K Skylake CPUs.
Problems noted in this video.
BIOS detection for temperature monitoring is turned off. Integrated Skylake graphics must be disabled, along with Turbo Ratio and C-State.
