I've had this 5600X for a while now, it's the B0 stepping, and I've finally gotten around to overclocking it properly, using CoreCyler, Curve Optimizer, and PBO Boost.
The cores will boost to -9, -30, -30, -12, -30, -6.
Unfortunately, I think my CPU has been degraded. I used to run all-core overclocks, PBO scalar, without too much caution into what I was doing. This chip has been used and abused in all ways possible (I bought it used for cheap years back, so I didn't care).
The CPPC preferred order (reported by HWinfo), is 5, 0, 3, 4, 1, 2. So voltage degradation to the CO stability makes sense considering the kernel prefers to boost those cores in order. Ah well.

First, your doing your curves wrong.. best cores cannot go so negative..yo u need to revamp the curves. Start with -10 on the two best cores #1-2 then like -12 on #3-4…and repeat.
You may have degraded the silicon after the STATIC OC method if you used that before.
Yeah.
I’ve been running a 5600x. I have a spare 5800x but haven’t bothered swapping.
I noted using PBO+CO during all-core workloads OR FFTs/AVX instructions will send power+temp as high as 80C. The vcore seems a bit high for long term use. I’ve considered disabling PBO just for longevity.
But it’s pretty aggressively tuned and fan curves have been adjusted so step-up time is very short and step down is like 1.0s.
