I have it at 4.4, 1.28v and did a 10 pass run of Intel Burn Test successfully, but whenever I run Prime 95 27.7, I end up with a rounding error after 20 minutes. The system seems stable, though. What should I do?
 
Just do what you do with your PC.. Unless it's Prime 95 ..

If you Run Prime 95 all the time , it needs to be prime 95 stable..

What do you have LLC set for ?
 
LLC is set to level 3 (the middle one, from what I have read ASRock labels its levels backwards or something, is this correct?). Only one core did it, and the rest still went like normal. After I'm off work I'll try some Battlefield and see how it goes.

A little more vcore most likely is needed. Most likely that core needs more voltage. Intel burn test loaded vcore is usually higher than primes due to way the CPU vcore works.

LLC level 3 should be fine.
