Hello, I have this issue where Aida gives me a "SYSTEM FAILURE" when trying to do a FPU stress test.
My VDDCR Voltage is 1.525 by auto and VDDCR SOC is 1.1375V. (Screenshot here:) https://imgur.com/a/N0lU1vh

I have seen other people saying that 1.4 or above is way overkill, but this is set auto by my motherboard, otherwise I was running at 1.4 V and went for a stress test, and received a BSOD instantly.
Without TPU II my PC was fine on the CPU , Cache, FPU, Memory stresstest!
Im running on 4GhZ and TPU II since February, and I don't know if my CPU's longevity is completely screwed or if it's actually okay to stay at this voltage.

The really really maximum CPU temps I got in the summer where my room was 28-29 C at least was around 75C°.
And in games right now I have 55-65 C° Temps..
at idle I have it around 33-44C° so I don't know really if it's okay or not.

My rig:
Windows 10 Pro
CPU: Ryzen 1600X on 4.0 GhZ on TPU II
Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX B350-f
GPU: Gigabyte Windforce GTX950 2GB Xtreme Edition
RAM: HyperX Predator 8GB HX430C15PB3/8
HDD: WD 1 TB Blue 7200RPM , 500GB Seagate 5400RPM
SSD: KINGSTON 120GB SSDNow V300
PSU: Aerocool VX-750W
CASE: PHANTEKS P400 Black-White Tempered Glass Edition

DEEPCOOL Gammaxx 300, but I might be dumb, I don't know what VDDCR is, but here is an AIDA64Extreme screenshot too : https://imgur.com/a/qNd8HCS :

VDDCR is your CPU Core voltage. It's the same as Vcore for intel

Oh, but I read posts about people hitting 75C° with 1.4V or around that, and they say that 1.4V is a lot too, then what's with ASUS ROG's defaul TPU II preset with 1.525 V?

 
VDDCR_CPU and VDDCR_SOC, CPU and Memory Controller voltages respectively.
Why don't you grab HW Info https://www.hwinfo.com/download/ most accurate and detailed for Ryzen systems.
PS: Those automatic voltages can go sky high during OC, TPU II setting is actually meant for good liquid coolers only. That should have been fixed in latest BIOS versions.
Better to OC manually, can be controlled better. I start by setting manual voltage to lets say 1.4v and raise multiplier step by step while still stable. At first sign of instability I raise LLC and try again. It may go a bit higher than 1.4v at times but while temps are fine it will never go to high, maybeup to 1.416 - 1.425 which AMD says it's fine.

HWInfo says this: https://imgur.com/a/Kh71uhP
But in the BIOS the VDDCR is set to 1.525 V by default with Asus's TPU II preset.

With the normal (3.6 GhZ mode) AIDA64 doesn't say "SYSTEM FAILURE", only with TPU II, so I assume that something is wrong with voltages, and I don't know what voltage is safe or what voltage is stable for the 4.0 GhZ mode

So, Is it a problem that it's not getting the voltage that VDDCR is giving it?
And so can I just leave it on TPU II and play? Or does this decrease my CPU's longevity? Im not planning on switching for 4-5 years more at least, unless my CPU will bottleneck the RTX 2070 (I know its pricey and stuff, but I have to upgrade my GPU anyway)

PS: Also, on LLC I have these "Auto - Regular - Medium - High - Extreme"
I don't know what to do with these as I don't really know what they do. They are in the "DIGI + VRM" section

I don't get BSOD's, nor do I have problems in games ( I don't see massive FPS drops ). Maybe in some games that are too powerfull for my 950, or they are not optimized (Early access games like The forest) While loading caves or big areas suddenly, but the FPS stablizes right away.

But I did receive an Error in the stress test while trying to run AIDA64 Extreme to look at my temps (Since OCCT doesn't want to give up on showing GPU temps on CPU stress test) It was 67-69 maybe when I wasn't looking 70-71 C°.

Then I received an error message.

Also, Im only doing the D.O.C.P Standard (To get my ram on 3000MhZ 15-17-17-36)
And Now my Core multipliers are Off limits. So I REALLY don't understand what is going on.
TPU II sets a 1.375V
Core limiter BUT wants to give 1.525V VDDCR rate? Why?

Here are the AiSuite voltage counter and HWinfo again:

PS. https://imgur.com/a/mV3HXZT HW monitor, under CineBenchmark results (score: 1296) Is 82 C°fine? I mean, I know that the max is 95 C° but I don't know :/ This was with 250 khZ VDDCR CPU Switching Frequency (I use it on 200khZ since that is the standard)
