My internal clock is pretty consistent at least

waiting for me to get back to it

i didn’t know few months ago that taichi had spinning gears

however it’s hard to be motivated to play with a mid quality 265k vs my 6400 9800x3d

merry stirrup

this is real im quite happy my cpu is okay

I get to go to microcenter today or tomorrow

im just gonna jump the gun from 1.5 to 1.53

topaz veldt

what kit

merry stirrup

dram? no kit should take 1.5 volts for 8k at testing timings

no h16/hynix kit

unless you secretly have 16m die

turbid locust

Even my dogshit 7700x boots 8000

merry stirrup

my 7900x3d did

that shit needed 1.27 volts for 6000

pure garnet

😭

turbid locust

Mine needed 1.25v for 6000c26

merry stirrup
#

it did ycruncher at 8000

pure garnet
merry stirrup

well no it was 1.23 volts

brisk jolt

the 9800 cant even do 6200 at all so like whatever

merry stirrup

theres a screenshot of me asking bz about it somehwere

turbid locust
merry stirrup

setsuna bin

turbid locust
#

try adjusting VDD Misc and VPP

merry stirrup
#

yes

#

and vddio and vddp

brisk jolt
#

im gonna restart to see if it actually boot in the first place

pure garnet
#

i found that vddio had to be vddq but maybe my chip is also broken

merry stirrup
#

whoever said am5 doesnt have a million voltages was wrong

turbid locust
#

VDD Misc was the biggest factor for me in AM5 Gear 2 but ymmv

merry stirrup
#

trueskis

turbid locust
pure garnet
#

i just touch vdd and it goes brrr

merry stirrup
#

i mean yeah cause nobody goes past 8000 or 6400

#

it either works or it doesnt and they stop there

pure garnet
#

i mean didn’t mac do 10k on borderline auto

turbid locust
#

I might buy a 9600x and go for some gear 2 stuff

turbid locust
merry stirrup
pure garnet
merry stirrup
#

not really similar to 8200 2:1 or above

turbid locust
#

I’ve been told dual channel 10k is possible tho

pure garnet

well i can’t try above 8000 yet

turbid locust

Might go for it sometime

B850Mpower is my first board with an external clock gen afaik

pure garnet

mpower still crazy worth for $230

merry stirrup

fr

#

will get a ran thru one at some poinjt

turbid locust
#

People complain that it doesn’t have a couple settings exposed for good ycruncher benches but

merry stirrup
#

when i get macs 5090 after he buys a 6090

#

mod it

#

its not hard

turbid locust
#

yur

pure garnet
#

when it’s only in stock competition is $700 who gaf

merry stirrup
#

deadass

turbid locust
#

real

merry stirrup
#

you have to mod the board or wait for a modded bios to come out for bench but you save 500$

#

the work you do modding the board is gonna total like maybe 2 hours

turbid locust
#

Force is good at mem oc but shit at everything else

merry stirrup
#

if thats 500$ to you, DAMN

pure garnet
#

force makes my eyes hurt but also not in stock na afaik

merry stirrup
#

nah

#

maybe now

turbid locust
#

Also DOGSHIT IO

merry stirrup
#

its just not a good board

#

im happy msi took the mpower seriously for its 2nd go around

turbid locust
#

BZ said literally everything else about the board besides mem oc is ass

merry stirrup
#

pov z790 mpower

#

my edge was better™

pure garnet
#

for actual oc focused boards in production it’s just the mpower and apex

brisk jolt
#

Im gonna try 8000 at 1.45v, with adjusted voltages from what flops and mac said

merry stirrup
#

fafo time

#

dual ccd high freq is harder so like whatever

pure garnet
#

did you say vddp yet

merry stirrup
#

mhm

brisk jolt

yeah he did

fringe vigil
#

Where’s billy

pure garnet
#

i almost bought a 7900x3d way back

merry stirrup
#

im sorry

#

the fact you were led to think that was a good idea makes me sad for you

pure garnet
merry stirrup
#

shit was trash

pure garnet

this was when my 13700k died

turbid locust
#

Yo there’s a revision of the force that’s not orange

merry stirrup
#

guh?

livid flame
turbid locust
merry stirrup
#

ah this gross white one

yeah its still trash sorry

pure garnet
#

it looks nicer but it’s still -rep gigabyte

merry stirrup
#

5 usb ports

#

a display ouut on oc board is wild please give me usb

brisk jolt
#

my usb hub might have more than that

merry stirrup
#

just enough

pure garnet
#

making my board look feature rich

merry stirrup
#

no flash drive for you

#

leave the BOOBA board alone

pure garnet
#

the mpower unironically has better rear io than my daily system

merry stirrup
steel stream
pure garnet
#

i use a usb switch anyway

#

so i only need 2 ports it’s just kinda lame

merry stirrup
#

i have to use usb-c to usb-c cables on the ocf

brisk jolt
#

my assrock board had better IO but it was pretty overkill, mpower sufficiently does the job

steel stream
merry stirrup
#

my mic is usb-c to usb-c same with my headphones and such

brisk jolt
#

fuck windows i dont want you diagnosing my pc

pure garnet
#

my only problem with the mpower is one of the nvme slots is only 4.0x2

merry stirrup
#

maybe if they didnt put a fan on a 20 phase desktop sized board theyd have space for USB

pure garnet
#

but it disables a 4.0x4 port to use it

#

so where are the 2 lanes going msi?

steel stream
merry stirrup
#

yeah for nothing

#

the egpu im gonna plug into my atx desktop

pure garnet
#

pretty sure it’s just standard z890

merry stirrup
#

its pointless to me idk

#

but i get a physical bios switch on my io

#

so +rep asrock

pure garnet

x870 mandates 40gbit usb 4 or whatever too

booo. flash the loongnia on it

pure garnet

merry stirrup

her bootlogo mogs the shitty thin dragon too

merry stirrup
#

no features just shawty

#

ITS GOT A CUSTOM BOOT LOGO?

pure garnet
#

yeah it’s her name

merry stirrup
#

they care more about this board/bios than oc boards

steel stream
merry stirrup
#

actual attention to detail in my product

#

its garbage realistically but i mean

#

shawty board

pure garnet
#

it’s a reskinned b850 edge ti wifi

merry stirrup
#

wonder if you could just crossflash

pure garnet
#

it’s a perfectly fine midrange board

merry stirrup
#

i meant garbage for like mem my bad im not bullying you 😭

steel stream

everytime I type it I am surprised gooner isn't a filtered word yet

pure garnet

oh i mean it’s probably about as good as my tomahawk was

merry stirrup

yeah

pure garnet
#

8000 if you go into termination hell inshallah

brisk jolt
#

the bsod essentially bsod’d

merry stirrup
#

look familiar?

pure garnet
#

the funniest thing about this board to me is that

#

there's like 0 information on the internet at ALL about it

merry stirrup
#

nobody bought it bro 😭

pure garnet
#

thats probably why it was 60 off for black friday lol

merry stirrup
#

lol

pure garnet
#

i bought it bc for $200 with a postcode and a non white bios it's a good daily board

merry stirrup
#

real

pure garnet
#

and i had given up on the mpower

merry stirrup
#

then when you needed them the most

#

msi saved you

brisk jolt
#

do i up vddio above 1.5v

merry stirrup
#

if its not helping you just dont increase it anymore

pure garnet
#

it's a signaling voltage

turbid locust
pure garnet
#

it really shouldn't need more than 1.45v

merry stirrup
#

it generally scales until it doesnt and the doesnt is usually yeah like 1.45

brisk jolt
#

i basically upped everything yall asked me by like 0.1 and nothing’s working lol

i think vddp can still go up

pure garnet
#

this is from brother buildzoid

#

granted i don't have the second ccd but i ran these voltages for my run

brisk jolt
#

im gonna slap 1.55 vddio and 1.6 mem vddq see if anything changes

#

I can barely even boot at all

#

yeah nothing changed

#

the bsod bsod’d

merry stirrup
#

shes cooked

pure garnet
#

you're going the wrong direction

#

too much of a signaling voltage makes it worse

merry stirrup
#

tis why i said vddio to mem vddq

#

1.45

brisk jolt
#

my bios froze KEKW

pure garnet
#

try
1.15 soc
1.45 vdd, vddq, vddio
auto the rest

#

if you're not getting into windows at that i think your cpu is just fucked man

brisk jolt
#

I could try 7800

#

Im pretty sure 7600 should be 100% good but question of it being better is there

pure garnet
#

7600 is competitive with 6200 1:1 iirc

#

and 8000 is roughly comparable to 6400 1:1

brisk jolt
#

yeah it did boot but i aint getting past the login window

#

so results are basically the same

pure garnet
#

checked my amazon history and damn that chip was affordable at one point

merry stirrup
#

brothers what do i clean the oled off with

#

is filtered water good enough

#

and the cloth it came with 🙏

shell void
#

distilled water and a clean microfiber

#

demineralized is also fine but idk who buys that shit when distilled exists

steel stream
#

yeah what michael said, make sure it's actually distilled water and a fresh microfiber, QD-OLED is annoying to keep clean

merry stirrup
#

augh fine

#

ill go to walmart and get distilled at some point i dont got any

brisk jolt
#

I have like an entire litre

merry stirrup
steel stream
#

yeah that'll be good

brisk jolt
#

I use like 3 microfibres xd

shell void
#

if you have some diluted alcohol that isn’t full of crud then that’ll work fine too

#

distilled water, or 70% alcohol for stubborn debris is samsung’s recommendation

pure garnet
#

whoops

#

the riot client did NOT like the unstable fclk at startup

brisk jolt
#

of course they are a small indie company

south shuttle
#

Why run games with unstable fclk

pure garnet

i didn't

#

i left it auto starting on an os i test mem on

gotta reboot 🔥🔥🔥

south shuttle
#

Guess what this logo says

brisk jolt
pure garnet
#

the doohickey on the b850 mpower doesn’t show cpu temp

brisk jolt

because they want the startup boot to prioritise them

pure garnet

my 5070ti is almost exclusively used to run a 2013 mmo

As a beginner who doesn't really know what any of it is, no. If you are a little more comfortable, this is the same thing I shared with you the other day and it has the tl;dr at the bottom. Also we use the Nvidia app now, all the necessary settings have moved to that. the old control panel will go away at some point. https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1lokih2/putting_misconceptions_about_optimal_fps_caps/
