baseline is more conservative, so i don't think you damaged anything by using that. you can see in the image I posted a few posts up. With default profile it will probably run a bit hotter than the baseline profile does, so tweaking the voltage for an undervolt is probably needed, esp since you had to on baseline.
the microcode will be loaded no matter what, but I think you can 'override' it with your settings. With i5, vCore should be nowhere near the critical level, and the multiplier is also 53 or lower, so a lot less worries than i9. |

Ya by override I think you mean the option to switch to x104 microcode.
Also my i5 mostly hovers around 1.32v avg VID with peak at 1.42v, and around 1.28v avg Vcore with peak at 1.37v while playing games. My custom settings are: CPU Vcore Compensation Level 1 PL1 and PL2 125w Iccmax 200A ACLL 0.75, DCLL 1.10 LLC Level 5 |

THis is not what is getting set when the DEFAULT profile is loaded. Selecting the DEFAULT results in: PL1=125 Watt PL2=181 Watt ICCMAX=200 Amp So what's the deal? How do we ensure we are at the correct microcode settings? |

From what I know the microcode settings that have been modified to prevent cpu degradation are stuff that we don't have control of like the hard 1.55v limit or the tvb table. You don't even get to see the table anymore in the latest asrock bios, at least I can't in my B760m steel legend.
The other power settings that are getting applied by default, even though they do not match Intel specs, they are actually lower than what Intel recommends. So this should not degrade your cpu in any way. Although I will suggest to lower the ACLL to undervolt the cpu a bit. |

for me with 13600kf
the only thing i touched was load xmp profile and onboard leds=off after reboot i check and it is set to: pl1=181W pl2=181W cpu core current limit=200A |
