I'd be careful with anything over 1.25v load, ymmv

kind walrus
#

Did an UV curve and pushed it further. I'm at the limit now. Thermal headroom but silicon limited

#

2nd in graphics/overall and 1st in CPU for this hardware but a ways off on the best GPU score for this chip sadly

#

CPU looks like it still has some headroom left tho

#

Also not sure about number 1 unless there's a way to get the cpu freq. and gpu mem freq. higher that I'm not aware of

oh wait it is a K already nvm

I don't think so - but I was running 8c8t

Why are you still on that os lol

ah heck I forgot to update to new one

let me check my ventoy cuz I think I already have the macrium image installed

lemme upload an image, the iso is posted in the wegg discord

oh iso?

I like iso those don't give me boot loader headaches lol

Some 6950xt benching, was hoping for 28k graphics score, but had a lot of issues with cold slow/drivers/mpt and ended with a 27.2k, will give it another run tomorrow.

I absolutely love the hot300 for this, 4 hour session, 0 ice/water on the card. I'll be using some longer rods next session so I can use the metal backplate and really tighten down.

@kind walrus Hey, what do you daily btw? Got an astc screenshot?

#

Try run some ycruncher 1B

kind walrus
#

@proven canopy sorry for late reply but I've been dailying a 5900X while I slowly get the 12900KF system up and running to speed

#

Only just started ram tuning it but the CPU is happy with the OC I did

#

I stabilised this to 5.5 1p, 5.4 4p, 5.3 6p, 5.2 8p, 4.1e 4.2 ring @ 1.35V 100 bclk (changing bclk just worked for cinememes)

I think it can do 2 cores 5.5 but not really bothered with it cos TVB or whatever it's called does only 1 core

Since my question sorta has to do with OCing, what are the risks of buying OC edition cards

None

The ones you probably don't want to buy will be covered in vaseline, plastidip, trim pots soldered to them poorly etc

#

Some versions of cards absolutely make a major OC difference

kind walrus
#

some skus have different die labels depending on binning iirc? (A1 vs B1 or something? A1 vs A2??)

#

that's like non-OC vs OC

#

Or maybe it's even 'KD' I can't remember at this point

how do you OC without the system losing data

#

@sudden torrent are you available

sudden torrent
#

Unless you're doing ram overclock you don't need to worry about data loss at all

pallid nest
#

we were tightening timing

sudden torrent
#

Yep ram overclock like I said

#

If you're still blue screening at default settings you might need to reinstall windows

pallid nest
#

sadly its gpu i think the drivers got corrupted

#

#

Yep that's a nvidia driver

pallid nest

is there anyway to protect gpu drivers

Make sure you've defaulted any gpu overclock just in case

i didnt touch gpu at all just ram

#

Like most amateur enthusiasts I keep at least 3 operating systems installed at all times

#

One for benching and testing, one for gaming, and one for playing around with

pallid nest
#

oh how do you do that

sudden torrent
#

You set up a partition and install windows to it

#

Nothing special

#

A bench OS doesn't need a license

pallid nest
#

oh

sudden torrent
#

You can even use an old HDD to install to

#

Loading speed isn't a priority

#

You can use the Forks OS, a stripped down Windows 10, so it doesn't take as much space and loads faster.

lol first ill have to buy bigger SSD

Oh thas pretty good

What winth intel cpus being able to clock so much higher

That's with my memory overclock too. When you've got tight timings it can affect your max stable core clocks a bit.

#

wasnt there a way to lock boost clocks on nvidia? I thought you could in inspector and that just seems to break, and cant find the button in msi AB for it

#

v/f curve doesnt reach high enough to lock it in either

proven canopy
#

You can use thermspy, or k-boost/boost lock with precision x1

tall pelican
#

oohhhh I thought AB had something similar at some point?

#

appears to not be a thing for ada

#

jk Im blind

tall pelican
#

did a thing

restive sequoia
#

yeah pressing L in afterburner in the boost bin yo uwant locks it down

tall pelican
#

you can only do that if you can click on the frequency point that you want, and AB currently only gets to 3000mhz

proven canopy

Tried abx? Or cheat engine

X1 does what I need. Just doing offset and lock pstate

that seems awfully high

what do you think i should run then

just depends on the game honestly

I had a zotac card once and it was a bad overclocker as well

Minimal software in linux is probably missing or ubuntu distro's program wear or programs could be creation of interference to get steam to work Since it froze running TF2 which runs on linux. the windows games need dx10 feature and is forced to use wine translation to let proton do its job. Alternative? Wine like may be the only way. Certain developers anti cheat codes ban it though have to be careful. I haven't really figured out that. internet connection. Besides When the message comes up dx something you need dx10 to run this feature and the game wont play. It means there is no dx in linux even with proton.

what are people using to test stability on intel chips now? I just thermal throttle in prime95

#

afaik

short blade
#

I'm getting thermal throttling in p95/occt small avx2 which makes the testing kind of useless

I can cool the SSE versions without any issues

worth testing that instead?

it's normal for chips to run hotter with AVX/2/512 than any SSE instruction set

so what did you wanna test?

however

in avx2 tests I just thermal throttle so it doesn't really matter

you could also buy a 420mm lf2 ๐Ÿค“

#

I'm doing 5.5ghz in SSE without issues

but it drops down to like 5.25 in AVX2

so at that point I'm testing the cooler more than I'm testing the stability of the oc, right?

mental turret
#

basically lol

short blade
#

thoughts on running SSE tests and then leaving a demanding game like cyberpunk open overnight?

#

for "avx testing"? lmao

#

that sounds so cope

mental turret
#

if you wanted to "avx test", just run ycruncher or something. or even p95 was fine

i think ycruncher is a little better? but its probably negligible

#

I dont code benchmarks though so who knows

short blade
#

y-cruncher is probably going to thermal throttle too

mental turret
#

definitely

short blade
#

p95 throttles with avx2 but not with sse

mental turret
#

If its thermal throttling instead of crashing in those tests, then you're stable

I think demanding games would be the only way to actually hit 5.5 with an avx load? or cinebench

is it time to become the cinebench stable memes???

if you can run AVX in a game without TT, but then TT in a test, it's because the game isnt utilizing the CPU as effectively

#

thats why with the synthetic loads its hotter

short blade
#

yeah I know

#

I just don't know how much value there is in running those tests when I'm 250mhz below what I'm actually trying to test

#

cause in real usage it's not gonna throttle

well, for the p-cores 5.5ghz 1.28vcore seems stable in SSE

@sudden torrent cpu basically idle at 600 fps

not sure how much value this has as a test

sudden torrent
#

You have to do 1080p or 720p for it to load the cpu more

#

Of course I haven't tried OW2 yet so they may have changed more than they let on

mental turret
#

games arent gonna load a CPU more than synthetic tests lol

sudden torrent
#

Well yeah but the idea is the varied load combined with multiple different instructions

#

For some reason OW is very sensitive to OC

mental turret
#

thats probably more of a game issue than a stability issue on the CPU's side of things

sudden torrent
#

Indeed, but the fact remains that the crashes correlate directly with OC levels

mental turret
#

yea, and i doubt it has to do with whether or not the actual CPU overclock is stable or not. games arent coded perfectly lol

short blade
#

also, i'm at my wit's end with this IMC... i can pass p95 large ffts avx2, occt large ffts avx2, y-cruncher, and all mem tests at 4133 gear 1, but will bsod within 2 seconds trying to run prime95 small ffts avx2/sse or occt small ffts avx2/sse, and occasionally even crash in cinebench. this is tested with both stock cpu settings and a cpu oc that's p95/occt small ffts avx2 stable (tested with ram at 3200 xmp to not bsod). any clues? i can't seem to get even 3900 to not bsod in those tests. i've tried up to 3600 stable.

Performance scales with frequency, efficiency suffers when you run higher voltage/clocks

Instability with small ffts shouldn't be caused by the memory system

I'm pretty sure it's IMC temperature sensitivity

the IMC is right next to the cores and it's a monolithic die

mental turret
#

Hopefully at least one of my ddr3 mfr can do 4000

scenic vine
short blade
#

very much so

#

however

#

4133 ram will bsod in small ffts even with stock cpu settings

#

and with overvolted stock

#

so I'm pretty sure it's IMC temp sensitivity and not a problem with my CPU oc

scenic vine
#

What imc heavy settings are you running

#

Command rate, rrd/faw, rfc/refi

short blade
#

2T, 4/4/16, 279/65535

#

however the same behavior occurs with fully auto subtimings (2T, 6/10/39?, 729/12480)

#

and I can say for sure that 4133 gear 1 is stable at lower temps

#

passed at least 50,000% of HCI, at least 1000 cycles of pcbdestroyer, 3 hours of occt large ffts avx2, 9 hours of p95 large ffts avx2, and 1 hour of occt memory

#

plus 5 hours of small ffts avx2 with 75c throttle point

#

if that isn't enough to say stable I'm giving up on ram oc and going back to xmp for life

~~update on my temp sensitive IMC: max stable cpu temp goes up from 75C to 80C by raising VDDQ from 1.375 to 1.45

unfortunately it doesn't seem to scale any higher than that up to 1.5v and I don't particularly want to go above 1.5v

SA 1.3 up to 1.35 had no observable effect on temp sensitivity~~ never mind, spoke too soon, it doesn't bsod anymore after 2 second but it soft errors after 10 minutes

#

really hoping a sweet spot for vddq exists somewhere between 1.375v and 1.45v for my imc

#

trying 1.4v right now

copper relic
#

maybe u can gain more by pushing mems harder

#

dont remember how I used to bench amd on ln2 but i think running uncore and mem 1:1 was hard because CB

short blade
#

dropping freq won't solve the temp sensitivity

#

tried it already

#

unless I drop all the way to 3600

#

and that's not worth it

#

75c throttle point is bad for benchmarks but doesn't change anything for actual use, so being able to run 4133 at 75c is better than only being able to run 3600 so I can run prime95

#

I tested VDDQ in all 0.005V intervals between 1.4-1.45, none of them stabilize 80C

#

1.4 makes it stable for 20 minutes but not fully stable

#

1.3-1.35V SA appears to have no impact on the temp sensitivity

#

time to test 1.395 VDDQ while I shower

#

1.4 was stable for a decent amount of time so I have hope for 1.395

scenic vine
#

If dropping the memory to 3600 is the only fix then it's not the imc

#

Unless it's defective

short blade
#

well by definition it's not defective unless it can't do ddr4-3200 G2 under maximum load

#

80C has been stable for 34 minutes at 1.395V VDDQ so looks like VDDQ can somewhat mitigate the temp sensitivity?

#

i am wondering if a remount/repaste is in order or if those deltas are fine

scenic vine
#

Deltas increase with power/core

#

Yours look on the better side of things

#

For example on my 9900k with direct die, 25w/core had deltas less than 5c, at 30w+ it would be around 20c

#

But then again cfl has terrible thermal transfer so that would exaggerate the results

short blade
#

okay, I'm asking because my mounting was kinda sus

#

3 of my standoffs got stuck to the thumbscrews and I don't have my pliers with me at school so I couldn't separate them

#

I can't see exact power per core but it says 242.75W on IA cores

#

no clue how much is on p-cores and how much is on e-cores

#

but this is probably a bit less than 25w per p-core

scenic vine
#

How does 4133 g2 run

short blade
#

I'd rather run 3600g1 than 4133g2

scenic vine
#

Is it stable?

short blade
#

no clue

#

doesn't seem worth trying

scenic vine
#

It would be the best way to isolate imc

short blade
#

I'm trying different combinations of voltages to increase the temp ceiling on 4133g1 right now

scenic vine
#

Without reducing bw a ton

short blade
#

at least 80c is probably possible

scenic vine
#

Do the same stress tests that pass fail above a certain temp?

short blade
#

well, yes, I've been testing small ffts with custom throttle points

#

80c was just stable for 50 minutes, still bsods in 1 second at 100c

scenic vine
#

Why don't you lower the cooling and use the same tests

#

Memory/imc stress tests, instead of small ffts

short blade
#

how do I lower the cooling? set the pump really slow?

scenic vine
#

Fan rpms

#

I assume you have control over that

short blade
#

my fans basically don't matter at the kinds of wattages that large ffts push

scenic vine
#

You can't run sub 500rpm?

#

Or even remove some

#

I'm assuming you're running custom

#

Which fans are you using

short blade
#

1 fan at 900 rpm is enough to cool large ffts load

#

haven't tried sub 900

scenic vine
#

That doesn't sound right

short blade
#

I don't have custom water no

#

it's an aio

#

large ffts is like what 140 watts?

scenic vine
#

Is it a 13600k or something?

13700K

#

and I got a bsod lol

scenic vine
#

Ouch

#

Have you tried y-cruncher stress test

short blade
#

ok I think occt large was the one that only hit 140 watts

#

I can pass p95 large overnight at 75C though

#

I've only tried y-cruncher once on this cpu

scenic vine
#

OCCT had a bug where a high thread count would have threads competing for resources which lead to lower load

#

It was solved

short blade
#

interesting, I'm on latest version

scenic vine
#

Was this 230w large ffts with min fan rpm?

short blade
#

no

#

but fan rpms don't make much difference

#

50% vs 100% is like a 10 watt difference

scenic vine
#

Slow fans

short blade
#

bottleneck seems entirely at the ihs/pump area

scenic vine
#

RPLs thermal transfer should be rather good

short blade
#

probably just aio limit then

scenic vine
#

It's better than ADL which was already good

#

My ryujin 360 was bottlenecked by cooling capacity on 12900k

short blade
#

changed some voltages, got a soft error in large but no bsod

#

idk, all I can tell you is that I can touch my rad and neither it nor the air coming off of it is significantly warm

#

even at full blast 330 watts

scenic vine
#

How long till saturation?

#

Do you not have a liquid temp sensor?

short blade
#

nope

#

no idea when saturation occurs I just know thermal throttling gets worse and worse over the first 30 mins or so

#

so maybe 30 mins?

#

no liquid temp sensor is pretty annoying

#

but I got this aio for a price I can't complain about

#

what do you know about CPU PLL SFR, RING PLL SFR, SA PLL SFR, E-Core L2 PLL SFR, and MC PLL SFR voltages?

#

I've raised them a bit through experimentation but I don't know what they actually do and can't find much info on them besides "try this number"

#

also can't find info on what's safe and what's unsafe so hesitant to raise them too much

#

don't know if they even do anything honestly

scenic vine
#

Afaik nobody has really tested them

#

I heard core pll trim is useful

short blade
#

I don't see a setting like that on this board

#

interesting... at 1.385 VDDQ I noticed hwinfo logged a cpu internal error shortly before bsod

#

at 1.375 no errors logged in hwinfo before bsod but the stated bsod reason was video driver failure

#

I think I've tried every voltage combination possible to get 80C stable, guess 75C will still be the limit

scenic vine
#

Oh yeah my arc gpu will always cause a bsod

#

Completely different from NV/amd

4133g2 is not allowed

multiplier must be even

Furmark is a poor stress test. Use 3dmark time spy, it's free

#

Then again, the games you play are always the best test

overwatch best stress test

Ah okay

#

Found it a little jank tho that's why I was wondering if you can get full p state control on after burner

Yeah I don't like overdrive. The only part that I like is it auto undos the oc but I feel like afterburner probably does the same

#

There's a toggle in AB to apply settings on boot or not, so if you do get a crash when you're testing you can just reboot and try again

#

Then once you find the stable settings you can set it to apply on boot

seems like userbenchmark changed some stuff with their test thing

#

only did it for the giggles

so it seems my gpu is slower since switching from ryzen to intel?

according to SOTTR bench my 13700K is beating my 5800X by 47% in average fps and 57% in lows
but the same 3090 at same settings is losing to its former self by 8.3% in average fps and 3.6% in lows

similar story on the 12100

#

cyberpunk result

#

pcie bandwidth is fine so that's not it

#

the gpu also scores about the same in 3dmark

#

actually it scored better on the intel platforms

#

so what is making it slower in games

New os after cpu swap?

short blade
#

yes

#

each CPU swap came with fresh windows

#

except the 5800x, didn't reinstall after switching from 3600x

#

as far as I can tell CPU works perfectly

#

only gpu is the issue

#

I'm on latest bios

#

I think I have latest chipset driver and management engine

#

same problem on the 12100 so I don't think it's an issue with raptor lake on z690

Could be a E core bug then

@restive sequoia my ddr3 faster than your ddr4 kappa

#

went for oc settings instead of uv settings

#

oc settings now are barely beating uv settings back then

#

hmm

#

I dunno what's going on

#

ok i think geforce experience in game overlay might have been the issue LOL

#

i started using that recently

#

UV settings

#

getting much closer lol

mental turret
#

what are you OCing now

short blade
#

was just trying to see why my 3090 was slower on intel compared to my old ryzen

#

it's still a little bit slower for some reason

#

but not as bad as before

#

did you do fresh windows install on the 13700k?

was wondering if it's an issue with outdated bios

short blade
#

I broke my existing windows install with ram oc shortly after the upgrade

i mean it's stable now

it was unstable during the process
