If your intent on Overclocking the CPU then consider no p-state overclock. I consider this a tree hugging feature that can spoil a decent Overclock. Once your stable then you can try p-states.

Have all your cores operational and no offsets to start with.
Change your LLC to mid range or high. You may have voltage droop when Overclocked, just keep your eye on Temps as AUTO settings can vary voltage input.

Your OC will vary depending on the AIO your using and a H115i is the best for a decent OC.

The Bios has settings allowing an OC based on the cooling you have and worth giving a try.

If your going to Overclock then you will want to have performance power plan as ballance will park your cores when demand is low.
I always set for performance when Overclocked.

My cooling system is H115i and I achieved 4.016 and Vcore set to 1.4V. Do not exceed 1.4V on the Core for longevity. The H80 is inadequate for higher than stock frequency imo.

I dont understand why so many people seem to bash the Corsair H80i v2. For sure having a radiator of twice the size should, at least in theory, provide slightly better cooling. But the difference is certainly not that humongous to call H115i "the best for a decent OC" and H80 "inadequate for higher than stock frequency"!
Your frequency is slightly higher than mine, but when I look at your HWMonitor screens youre running at "97" (I believe it is actually 77 with cca. 20 substracted) degree Celsius with vcore set to 1,461V while my rigs CPU with 1,417V vcore operates currently at 70 degree Celsius under AIDA64 SST. So it seems that my "inadequate" cooler actually outperforms your "superior" one by at least 7 degree Celsius! :cool:
IMHO: The Corsair H80i v2 is an awesome cooler absolutely adequate for serious usage and OCing with performance on par with the best air coolers out there! 😄
