    Yea, they all work BUT keep AC DC loadline the same. Setting it to 1 will cause instability from not enough voltage.

    Setting AC Loadline to 1 (leave DC Loadline alone at 0, or otherwise VID (vcore) will be reported inaccurately) will only work if you have a golden binned CPU.
    ACLL at 1 (0.01 mOhms) means AC Loadline will no longer be able to boost the CPU's supply voltage above the base VID value for that multiplier; you will be limited by base VID And Thermal velocity boost voltage optimizations (+1.55 mv per +1C, or -1.55mv every -1C, starting at 100C; 155mv difference in base VID going from 100C to 0C). Then you'll have the full healthy dose of VRM Loadline calibration (1.1 mOhms) to drop whatever ACLL is requesting, at full load (lots of vdroop).

    You can try AC Loadline=55 (0.55 mOhms) but you should REMOVE any undervolt offset before trying this and make sure you're stable, and you absolutely won't be able to undervolt manually very much afterwards.
