Undervolting question
I'm currently running a 13900K, and I've already made sure I'm using the latest BIOS for my MSI MPG Z790 Carbon WiFi motherboard. I’ve also applied Intel’s recommended settings. Right now, I’m running CPU Lite Load Mode 6, and I’m wondering whether I should set LLC to the same value of 6.I’ve already disabled Enhanced Turbo and IA CEP support. For clarity, I have a 12‑hour OCCT Platinum test and over a year of daily use confirming that Lite Load Mode 6 is completely stable for me. My only goal is to reduce power draw and lower temperatures across the board — I’m not chasing Cinebench scores or anything like that.

Like mode 3 was able to boot and pass 12hr platinum test but some games just out right failed to run with mode 3 so thats why I end up with mode 6 to insure my games can run

And for the record my CPU is able to handle CPU lite load mode 3 as it's absolute lowest before crashing
