It even has the option to enable PBO in the bios, I can force the discrete graphics or integrated or leave it switchable. Just need some voltage control to undervolt and it would be about as good as I can expect at the price.

Intel XTU, is it crap? Will it blow up my 9600k?

Is cpu voltage 5v + 1.2-3v? Is that how that would be translated?
proven canopy
To clarify, that's a glitched bios, vccio/sa should never be set above ~1.35ish unless you know what you're doing.
The board can't even supply more than 2? volts
If you're having problems with memory stability, I'd start with trying 1.1v-1.2v on vccio/vccsa
The "asus auto volts" thing has become a meme because asus boards will set vccio/vccsa to something like 1.4+ volts when those settings are left on auto while memory is running at 3600+ mhz.
true lion
Ok gotcha.
Yeah I noticed a 1 .4v when I tried xtu before, I thought that sounded very wrong

It's high ya, but even on air cooling under heavy load, it's unlikely you came even close to causing any harm to the chip.

Prime95 is my favorite suggestion
tall pelican
p95 or occt (if you dont have the cooling for p95)
proven canopy
We have a community hwbot team btw 🙂 https://hwbot.org/team/wegg/#Members
vapid shore
aight thanks
dull ginkgo
With Prime95, run stress test on all threads, and choose smallfft
Don't worry if temps go up to upper 80s or 90, P95 smallfft is literally the worst case scenerio that your CPU will go through. But if it starts going above 95c, might want to downclock or undervolt a bit.
uncut patrol
Usually you can just set an xmp profile in the bios
dull ginkgo
Ryzen dram calculator for amd
easiest way to really OC
XMP does the job for most people
tall pelican
if you're on zen2, I wouldnt use prime95 because of temps and current stress
that's where occt comes in handy
but since they're on a 3200g, p95 no avx would be the most stressful

if ur ram advertised 3200mhz, you should enable DOCP or XMP (depending on if youre on amd or intel) instead of changing the speeds on your own
DOCP and XMP are pre-made overclocking profiles made by the manufacturer that set the ram to run at its advertised speeds

@sand solar different chips like different voltages, easiest way to tell how much your chip likes is turn on pbo, do a stress test, and see where the voltages hovers.

cerulean juniper
Idk if im supposed to be able to but it can get to 2.2GHz on the gpu and 4.5GHz on the memory. The newest game i have is killing floor two and it runs fine with high settings. Is this just an instance of silicon lottery or am I just being dumb

Other side of the vent is taped off so all the air is forced through the tube.
Gets sucked right into the blower intake on the 1080 Ti.
Later I plan to use to of these tubes on both sides of the vent and tape the middle of the vent off to force the cold air through both of them.
Then make a box cut out to replace that plastic part of the case that's covering those front radiator fans then hook up the chilled air tubes from the vent straight to the box front piece and make all that chilled air go through the radiator.
The box is so I can cut it out evenly and no air escapes on the sides. That way every bit of the chilly goodness gets forced through the rad.
I chose to go with that aluminum tubing over something plastic as aluminum has some thermal insulation property's that will help the air stay as cold as possible as it passes through the tube.

My god I have legitimately thought about doing that exact thing and was like why has no one done this
It’s been in my head “I need to go to the store and get some duct so I can try this out and see if it works” 
The only downside being that my vents are on the floor
so, that being said
does it work

I will copy pasta my message from another server regarding the performance based on my rough quick testing last night.
"About what you would expect from an A/C.
A/C can only cool so far.
I don't have any exact numers yet but from the bit of testing I did last night the GPU dropped 20C from running on ambient air to chilled..."
Which I'd say is a decent difference.
And that tempature difference is under load.
brazen walrus
Nice!
Much more quiet than having to use a loud fan when trying to get the most you can get out of OC

not really
would have been better to tape on a fan to the end of the ducting, but otherwise that's what you do

@restive cargo I think your blower 1080ti needs that air more than the cpu

Has anyone overclocked trident z neos on a Maximus formula z490 motherboard? Specifically 2x16gb (32gb) 3600. If yes whats your cooling setup like? Is it only safe liquid cooled?

CTR is pretty bad imo. Its just cinebench stable, tells you to run max llc (very bad) and you lose single core boosting

my 3600X also fails to even complete the diagnostic
I just want to see what kind of sample it says mine is

Nothing like the pain of opening hardware bot and seeing a bunch "you lost xxxx.x points"
Thats why I only bench my old laptops. Nobody else is going to benchmark a 2011 macbook

I'm doing a 3600X build for a customer who doesn't want overclocking... would it be unethical to bench his and swap it if it's better 😂
if my 3600X is in the bottom 1% of year 2020 production, I wouldn't be surprised

i used XTU on my last intel machine, was able to push it a little. - https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29183/Intel-Extreme-Tuning-Utility-Intel-XTU- - but make sure you have adequate ventilation/cooling if you're gonna do anything serious
i would look up undervolting guides as well
fluid nova
ok
thorn ore
with a mobile chip you want to basically keep it from getting too hot, so it will sustain boost for longer before it thermal throttles
and undervolting will help you do that
fluid nova
aight thx

what can i overclock my 1650 super too

1650?
thorn ore
there's no guaranteed oc amount, you have to push it a little at a time and test it
look up a gpu oc guide and use something like msi afterburner to push gpu/mem clocks

Hello everyone, I have a question on how to overclock my RAM so I can get 3600 MHz as it says I should get out of the box. Using CPU-Z it shows that the DRAM frequency is only running at 1799.6 MHz, can I please get help getting my full 3600MHz? My Specs are as follows: MSI X470 Gaming Plus Max Mobo, R5 3600xt, 2x8Gb of Corsair Vengeance 3600MHz RAM, EVGA RTX 2060 KO.
proven canopy
1800mhz dram frequency in cpuz = 3600 mhz "normal" frequency
3600 means 3600 million transfers / second
The ram runs at 1800 mhz but transfers data twice each clock

I'm super new to over clocking in fact this is going to be my first time. I currently have a Asus Rog Strix 2080 that I want to over clock. I have afterburner to overclock it with and I am wondering if there is anything that I should know in general about overclocking that isn't mentioned in videos or anything specific to my card such as running hotter than others or stuff like that.
dark ferry
Overclocking GPU is hella easy.
Monitor temps, go higher till crash, back off, repeat.
sage cave
Ok thank you
dark ferry
It's not like RAM or CPU overclocking.
dark ferry
Yes there's the OC Scanner too.
dull ginkgo
Works for easy small auto oc
dark ferry
Yes but it doesn't touch the VRAM.
dull ginkgo
Ya vram is super easy tho
dark ferry
But VRAM is same thing. Push till things get weird. Back off. Done.
dull ginkgo
You just let heaven play in windowed
And mess with slider
It's easy asf
Like you gotta run a run of smth to stress every core clock you try, but mem you can just have heaven
sage cave
ok will do thanks for the help
dark ferry
I wish CPU and RAM overclocking was as simple as GPU.
sage cave
isnt ram overclocking just the xmp profiles or do you mean beyond that
dull ginkgo
Think about it, gpu and vram is on a dif board
dull ginkgo
Xmp is weak oc
dark ferry
I tried to manual OC my ram once.
I had to clear CMOS a few times and gave up. Set XMP.
dull ginkgo
Manual oc isn't worth unless you got b die or got really lucky
tall pelican
^^^ or some super bad xmp
dark ferry
On Ryzen the difference would be more noticeable.
tall pelican
helped someone the other day that xmp was 2666 with cjr

@dark ferry took me 4 tries to get dram calculator values in lol
sage cave
im on intel is it worth setting it to that or no

Wanna come to my house and fix my OCs then?
dull ginkgo
Nah I'm crap with it
tall pelican
it depends on the workload
dull ginkgo
But tRCRD and tRCWR were in a different order in the bios than dram calc
tall pelican
and what I said doesnt change if he's gaming or rendering
dark ferry
I'm not saying there wouldn't be a difference.
tall pelican
dark ferry
And that it wouldn't vary depending on game or task.
I just don't think 3000 vs 3600 is going to be like "omg wow the difference".
sage cave
Ok
tall pelican
it depends entirely on the engine, and yes it can make a big difference
dark ferry
But then again.
People tell me overclocking my CPU doesn't make a difference in gaming.
Fortnite's game engine disagrees.
Big time.
Idk.
Overclock everything.

Got to like 147hz without weird crap
And then I was like screw this
dark ferry
My 144hz panel can go to 185hz but I haven't tested overclocking my 240hz panel cause it's gsync and it would seem pointless to overclock above the gsync threshold.
