VDDCR CPU Load Line Calibration

[Wiknox]

Hello,

I have a question regarding the "VDDCR CPU Load Line Calibration" setting in the BIOS of my motherboard. What would be the best option to choose? Should I select one of the levels from Level 1 to Level 5 or choose "Auto"? I'm not exactly sure which setting is optimal.

Auto is usually the middle so if it's 1-5, probably a 3. If it's 1-7 probably a 4.

The numbers do not reflect any actual value. Just the "higher" the LLC, the less vdroop you get during load. This can also be bad because to achieve this. The vcore voltage overshooting to make up for the drop under load. Idle voltage can be much higher and that spike can actually kill the CPU. Happen to me before.

Also need to watch out because LLC can be backwards per vendor. ASUS is up in #. One of the others is the opposite.
