Solving OC instability and blackscreens in Star Fantasy 3?

I was obsessed with the frequency and ignored the stability, leading to instant crashes once load hit 90%. According to stress test SF-G7-08 on Win11 24H2, CPU-Z showed a nasty Vdroop around 1.3V, where the voltage would dip to 1.22V and trigger a blackscreen. I went into BIOS -> Advanced Voltage Settings, changed the core voltage offset from 0 to +0.05V, and set Load-Line Calibration (LLC) to Level 4. After a 1-hour OCCT loop, peak temps hit 82℃ and the blackscreens stopped. The trade-off is an extra 30W of power draw and fans that sound like a jet engine—absolute torture in a quiet room, but that's the price of pushing clocks.
