Asus AI Suite 3 for auto overclocking - good or bad?

Question

On my Asus x99-A II board it plan to overclock my 6850K.

There are two ways. Bios or software. I am looking for user experience with the Asus AI suite. I read a lot of bad things about it. Raising voltage to high etc.

What would you recommend? Old school bios or auto tuning via 5 way optimisation? Also, does some know a good over clocking guide for my CPU?

i have read and seen videos with broadwell-e that suggest its not as overclock friendly and several times where the cpu has died. so it seems the broadwell-e cpu is easier to kill with an overclock. some of the auto settings seem to be causing problems too, as auto voltages go higher than they should. after seeing that i would stick with manual bios overclocking and only go with a medium overclock. i don't have any overclock guides to point to, but i would recommend finding two or three (hopefully for your motherboard) and compare them against each other, and get to know the overclock settings.
