Your PBO seems unstable. It might be time to reassess its management.

The reading of 1.525v is clearly elevated for the stock. If your voltage is set to stock and PBO is turned off, you might be at unsafe LLC levels. I haven’t seen mine exceed 1.488 even with various PBO settings. Google suggests up to 1.55v is typical, though 1.525v with standard limits seems unusual.
I used a X73 kraken 360mm, but the noctua dh15 performs better.
1.525 was the VDD value, but the "vcore" on the top of hwmonitor hasn't reached 1.5, I don't think
Stock reaching 1.500v VID, 1.481vcore. You can configure a negative PBO curve optimizer with standard power caps; it reduces voltages for light/single-core loads and limits frequency to around 142 watts. I use a PBO optimizer with higher caps, adjusting them as much as possible while keeping temperatures acceptable.
