In reply to Globe. This is my test bench. Still runs the same with these settings. I admittedly am not a CPU expert and I am sure some have said, "This guy is just nuts!" but this serves my purpose for achieving the highest possible performance in benchmarks.

1.504 vCore for 5Ghz?
Have you tried delidding that CPU?
Do you still have that CPU running at those voltages today?
Interested to find if you have ran into any instability over the 18 months, which could indicate degradation of the CPU.
There’s little information about the long term effects of running a coffee lake processor pretty much at intel maximum voltages (1.52), but degradation should manifest as lockups and inconsistent performance.

Appreciate your feedback.
