i would recommend you to uninstall this app and use the latest bios instead 🙂
you can try similiar settings for your 8600K https://imgur.com/a/8pWMV29
set VCCIO to 0,95V, System Agent to 1,05V manually, dont touch memory timings and frequency and use your xmp memory profile only
you can keep BCLK at 100,0000 MHz

i didn't get the part of the BCLK what's the use of that ? and is the ram timings you sent is compatible with my ram ?

Are you familiar with using the bios? Start there, and set your ram to xmp settings first.

try those settings with x50, you can always lower it

keeping ram only at XMP is ok ?
