So i finally get what VDroop is .. almost.
I get that it, under load, reduces the volts. Is this a setting that is built into the processor? As in i cant turn it off right?
So that's what LLC is for? on my asrock z77 extreme4 i have "auto" and "level1-5"
Level 5 is no compensation i think because it has the most VDroop still when under load.
But the odd thing is.. im more stable at level 5 then say level 3/2 (what the guide im using to overclock said to use)
I still got 4 random WHEA errors, which i think im going to ignore for now, since there not popping up like before. Before they would happen immediately after turning on prime, and i would have a ton of them if i ran all night (if prime even made it that far) but 4 of them after 24 hours all around the same time (4am 5am and 6 / 6:30am i got some). But prime is still running, no more errors in event viewer for the next 19 hours and my temps are good. (71c max)
Do you guys think that no compensation is good? Maybe by turning off speedstep and CE1 is the reason i am more stable and not because LLC is on level 5 (which is off i think)
asrock z77 extreme4
i5 3570K
4.4Ghz (trying to move to 4.5 but i want to figure this out)
zalman CNPS9500A cooler
g.skill ripjaw x series 8gb at 1333 mhz (stock is 1600 i thought maybe it would help, though i think that was only back in the day of upping the FSB overclock method, and i will probably put it back to 1600)
