During aggressive voltage boosting in Expeditions: Rome, the Intel 760P frequency releases are incredibly unstable; should I abandon this aggressive tuning for a gentler, safer profile?

When aggressive voltage boosting triggers a hard protective clock-lock, the Intel 760P's frequency starts tossing and turning while the temp curve spikes violently, leaving you to grumble about the limits of silicon. My first attempt at manually overriding the voltage curve provided some stability, but it was far from sustainable. The only way forward was implementing a rigorous BIOS safety boundary test to find the actual ceiling. With MSI Afterburner trailing the process, I managed to lock the core frequency in a stable 2.70GHz - 2.88GHz range, and the BIOS boundary test confirmed a 96.1% temperature compliance rate. Honestly, as risky as it is, the performance jump is undeniable. I struggled early on with cooling lag, where the heatsink couldn't keep up with the transient heat spikes, leading to constant alarms, but custom fan curves finally tamed the heat. I've backed up the entire configuration in the BIOS, but it's worth noting that under an absolute 24/7 torture test, I still encountered a few random soft-read errors.
