In playing most games, I get a solid 85% to 95% & 100% on load EDC of 230A.

THE QUESTION: Is this ok? Or will it damage my chip later on?

Are you sure you didn't wanna just show off your score? :D

But personally I don't really even think they're worth overclocking, because you lose the higher lightly threaded boost. I have a 3900X and on stock I get a slightly higher GeekBench score, although of course your multi has me beat by a good 25-30%, but that's mostly due to the higher core count

Hardware Unboxed (on YOutube) has done quite a few VRM temp measuring/analysis videos for several Rzen mainboards; perhaps you can find yours included....(there are some 120C temps at VRM mainboards, where caution would be warranted, vice compared to the relatively cool 95-100C mainboards)

I saw that video. This one configuration is from Builzoid though. According to him, these are the settings he runs his 3950X in. But I went back to Auto instead of 44 and Auto Voltage, now my max load hovers around 180 A out of 230.
