    The idle temp won't change much. 35C is normal.
     
    You should OC without AI for the best results. AI is still mostly fine though. See Der8auer's video here:

    Wierd thing, though. I just performed the same test with my 9900K, and CPU-Z always reports 8-50 no matter what. 🤷‍♂️

    What do people think is not good? Running it at the speed its built to run at? Just leave it at default settings. Don't use AI overclock, don't underclock it. Just leave it at auto.
     
    If your water cooler has a little fan on the water block, that is just for VRM cooling. Depending on your airflow over the VRM, that is not very needed. With that said, if you're running the CPU hard, it is a good idea to have. But that is NOT cooling your CPU, its cooling your VRM. Your radiator fans should always be spinning.... I assume they are.

    You can leave the Asus app installed, just disable the AI overclock option. If you want to overclock correctly, and safely (which is most important), look into how to overclock via googleing and youtube videos. Its not hard, its just a lot of work. You can use the AI Overclock settings to get a baseline, basically stress test with that on, see what voltage its pumping, and manually set a 51x multiplier and try less voltage. But, realistically, its just not worth the work with "only" a 2060 GPU. You are way more GPU bound than CPU bound.
     
    MSI Afterburner only affects your GPU, which I would try and overclock. Set the power limit and temp limit to max (seems like you have already) and then run the built in auto overclock feature in MSI Afterburner (this, unlike the Asus mobo one, is totally safe). Even when putting in the time, I am only able to get a few MHz more than the auto OC Afterburner is able to do for me.

    Yeah that combination of core voltage and freq makes no sense. Should be unstable if both are true.
