I thought I had to run it for 8+ hours to make sure it´s stable How long do you think is enough for Prime95 with AVX?

Hi, I have been trying to overclock my new system: Aorus Z390 Elite Intel i9700kf Corsair Vengeance RGB 3200MHz Corsair CX650M I have followed Gigabyte´s Z390 overclocking guide https://www.gigabyte.com/FileUpload/Global/multimedia/2/file/525/946.pdf Here's the situation i'm in: 1st try -> 4.8GHz/1.3v Vcore/AVX 0 (It passes 8+ hours of Prime95 with AVX and 8+ hours of Prime95 without AVX) 2nd try -> 4.9GHz/1.3 Vcore/AVX 0 (fails Prime95 29.8 w/AVX and passes 8+ hours of Prime95 without AVX) 3rd try -> 4.9GHz/1.3 Vcore/AVX 1 (fails Prime95 29.8 w/AVX and passes 8+ hours of Prime95 without AVX) On the 1st try and 3rd try, Prime95 with AVX was running at the exact same clock (4.8GHz using AVX 1). Is there a reason for Prime95 to fail on the 3rd try? What kind of adjustments I should be looking for? I am still trying to understand the issue above before going for 5GHz Thank you.
