alright changed it

#

yo is it a good idea to overclock my gtx1060

#

i7-8700 \

sterile flame
#

Always

frigid sentinel
#

cuz i only got 1 case fan

#

and a stock cpu fan

sterile flame
#

If that ain't broke af I don't know what is

frigid sentinel
#

LMAO

#

i got a prebuilt

#

which was 1300 dollars

#

i was so dumb

#

to buy this garbage prebuilt

sterile flame
#

Who's the moronic company that scammed you for one fan?

frigid sentinel
#

best buy

sterile flame
#

Lol

frigid sentinel
#

it was the omen obelisk

sterile flame
#

People keep buying based off looks

frigid sentinel
#

i mean it was before christmas and i was 14 years old and was rly hyped

#

so i just rushed it in

#

:/

sterile flame
#

You got a budget for fans?

#

And a cooler?

frigid sentinel
#

nah but my case cant hold any other fans

#

Probably an 8700 non k

frigid sentinel
#

yep

#

non k it is

#

Bad motherboard with bad power supply

#

I guarantee it

frigid sentinel
#

i got 450W

#

i or 550

#

i think

sterile flame
#

Ye it its ultra cheap I bet.

#

1300 damn

frigid sentinel
#

yep all cuz of the stupid case

#

took up the entire price

#

my system board is a 84FD 00

Here's a $1200 build I did last year for my little cousin. Used mobo and used GPU. GTX 1080/9600K.

frigid sentinel
#

sterile flame
#

Lord ew

frigid sentinel
#

i wish i built that

sterile flame
#

Building is fun and a great learning experience. People think it's harder than it really is.

frigid sentinel
#

i didnt know much at the time about pcs so i bought a prebuilt

#

i regret it

#

so much

sterile flame
#

That mobo layout is so weird

frigid sentinel

that airflow is rly nice

#

wow

It's an efficiency rating, not a reliability or quality rating. You can still get a bad platinum or at the least a really loud coil whine platinum.

Imagine not haveing 6 dimms

frigid sentinel
#

Loool

sterile flame
#

Single channel ram is shooting yourself in the foot. A surprising amount of performance is lost with single channel.

frigid sentinel

Should i have gotten 2 of 8gb

sterile flame
#

YES

vernal sail
#

The one good thing about old intel is 6 dimm motherboards

frigid sentinel
#

Does it matter if u put em in a certain spot

#

Like slot 1 and 3

But i think that is not common

frigid sentinel
#

Im not gonna overclock then lmao

#

Screw that

#

Bouta have an oven if i do

sterile flame
#

Sounds like all you really needed to do is re seat the RAM. Happened to me before.

vernal sail
#

Nah, wouldn’t work on the other channel

sterile flame
#

Dead?

vernal sail
#

Was a b550 prime

#

Other people also said that happens

#

Kinda odd board

sterile flame
#

Yeah that's odd. My X570 I had the same resulting issue but re seating solved it just fine.

vernal sail
#

X79 for the win lol

#

Ooh new day

#

Getting rid of this damn mobo

#

Hopefully it's the issue for coil whine

vernal sail

Getting rid of an x570?

sterile flame

sterile flame
#

Same power setup and almost same IO

#

I hear whining through my headphones when GPU is under load.

#

Keep in mind that my headphones are connected to an external Amp, connected to an external dac, connected to the computer via USB rear.

#

It's weird af

#

Never when CPU is under load. No change of ports makes a difference, not different cables.

vernal sail
#

Hmm... odd

sterile flame
#

Also it's not my PSU. It's quiet unlike my EVGA Super Nova G5 80+ Gold

vernal sail
#

Evga does make some nice psus

sterile flame
#

My guess is the 60-70w power that the mobo gives to the GPU through PCIE slot and the coil whine or whatever the heck it is, is being triggered.

#

Yeah, but the one I got is so damn loud.

wary tapir
#

no whine, 100% stress test max is 55C and just occasionally with fan at minimum speed

#

350w max power tho..2x8 pin power connectors only

#

for who hate fans noise like me, this is the awesome

olive portal
#

awesome and out of stock

sterile flame

Claudio you already showed me what GPU you had awhile go. Still that or EVGA FTW3 Hybrid I want.

"bottleneck" is a term that really only applies to gaming, so its a bottleneck assuming he games with the system, and depends entirely on the monitor he is trying to drive

#

You could be running valorant/apex on a 240hz 1440p samsung g7

Or the ultrawide g9

sterile flame

"Nearly non existant" when it literally depends on the game where you can see a gap of almost 30fps @ 1440p from what I've seen and significantly worse 1% & 0.1% lows

significantly worse 1% & 0.1% lows
This

sterile flame
#

Most titles are within the high teen to twenties number range of frames

cold jolt

Secondly a high speed RAM like 4000Mhz or 4400Mhz yields little gains in FPS over 3600Mhz but worse 1% & 0.1% lows. You're shooting yourself in the foot.

Why the 1600AF does IDK, it's a weird processor

Might have been a weird BIOS?

Might've been

quick rose
#

There was an AGESA update that broke it

dull ginkgo

Yea I like flashed bios once and left it

And then never touched cpu oc again

And broke ram oc many times

olive portal
#

All ai overclocks are bad.

#

I’d just learn how to manual oc

#

It takes like an hr to learn

sterile flame
#

Auto OC was actually proven to perform better than any other method. The difference is so slight tho. PBO is better overall and convenient.

#

Manual OC on Ryzen 5000 is Hella stupid

olive portal
#

Pbo use to many volts

sterile flame
#

No?

olive portal
#

Not really manual oc is always superior

dull ginkgo
#

nah

sterile flame
#

You assume. You don't know but you're acting like it.

dull ginkgo
#

manual OC is nice

#

but not OC

#

more UC/UV

#

offset UV and all are jokes

sterile flame
#

AMD approves of using 1.4v. The chip is rated up to 1.5 and MSI recommends 1.4

#

4.7 in 1.3 range is hella unstable or not at all

olive portal
#

Pbo goes up to 1.5v I think

sterile flame
#

I've been there I've done that bs. I don't manual oc on it.

#

My PBO never touched it and I've monitored it everyday. 1.43v is the highest at 4.8Ghz all core

dull ginkgo
#

let pbo do it's thing, pbo won't kill the chip

sterile flame
#

4.83 if you wanna get specific

olive portal
#

1.43v kinda high

sterile flame
#

No

dull ginkgo
#

but ofc manual all core gets more 3dmark points

olive portal
#

But if it’s for like a second or two it’s alright

sterile flame
#

You're just concerned.

olive portal
#

U could probably get lower volts on 4.8ghz just saying

dull ginkgo
#

and manual override uv makes room cool :P

clever epoch
#

there's a huge difference between spiking up to 1.4+V and running at 1.4V 24/7

sterile flame
#

It's not for a second or two. It's almost completely locked at that frequency until there's no workload. Proper cooling it needed tho or it's gonna go up and down.

clever epoch
#

with PBO you don't have to worry about chip degradation, but if you manual OC and fix the voltage at a high value, there's a good chance for degradation

sterile flame
olive portal
sterile flame
olive portal
dull ginkgo
#

manual override is, well, override

#

it sits there

#

PBO bounces around

sterile flame
#

Above 1.4 is not "danger"

olive portal
#

Depends on load to

clever epoch
#

there's 2 different safe limits

dull ginkgo
#

1.3v+ can be danger for manual for zen 2 and zen 3

sterile flame
#

1.4 is safe.

clever epoch
#

if you're talking about the normal limit, it entirely depends on the load

#

you can set it to 1.5V 24/7 and have no degradation as long as there's no load

olive portal
clever epoch
#

but if you load at 1.5V you will degrade

olive portal
#

Idk bout amd

sterile flame
#

You saying only when under load 24/7 is a (example) 1.48v lock a concern?

olive portal
clever epoch
#

but there's a greater voltage limit for silicon where the chip will degrade regardless of load, and that has to do with voltage breakdown of the silicon

#

no I'm saying that you can set it to 1.5V constant voltage without degradation as long as you don't load the chip

olive portal
#

Yea

#

It’s also bout load like I said

clever epoch
#

Yeah

#

so there's 2 "limits" you have to consider

#
  1. Voltage limit with load (depends on current/load for degradation)
  2. Silicon voltage limit (the voltage itself will degrade the chip)
olive portal
#

And heat but I’m pretty sure most people have decent coolers

#

Well heat if your near thermal throttle I suppose

clever epoch
#

high temperatures will increase the rate of degradation in either case

#

but at the same time, thermal cycles (going from high to low temperatures) can also cause failures (it's not exactly degradation, but it will gradually cause instability)

#

this is a long but very informative video about how computer chips degrade

#

or any chips I guess

olive portal
#

Well by the time the cpu go poopy it’s already irrelevant

clever epoch
#

I mean

#

people run a single system for long periods of time

#

you don't always need maximum computing power, just consistent performance and stability for long periods of time

neon rapids
#

for buildzoid/gn long videos set it to 1.25 or 1.5 speed

clever epoch
#

so this information also applies if you want a system to last a long time

#

yeah this isn't even a buildzoid/GN combo video. This is raw buildzoid, which is even more ramble-y 😛

neon rapids
#

lol yeah i meant those separately forgot they do stuff together

clever epoch
#

highly recommend his channel if you're into overclocking and hardware though. Just leave it running in the background or another monitor while doing something else mundane or chill

@fringe apex was just thinking

#

In that OC challenge you did a while back

#

Would it be possible to offload the OS and background tasks to a xeon phi or something like that to boost the FX’s ability?

proven canopy

No, even if possible, that'd probably be against the rules.

vague gull
compact birch
#

Did someone overclock psu ??

dull ginkgo
#

Yes moding the os is usually part of the challenge

proven canopy
#

Most people strip their OS, ya, but ram usage isn't usually the issue.
Limiting windows to 4GB of ram for b-die high voltage stability is common, e.g
bcdedit /set removememory 11500

#

for those who tested it to see if it really worked the revertion command is bcdedit /deletevalue removememory

Hello

So my BIOS for ASUS x470-i, 5800x runs at base clock but my ram is 100% overclocked to 3800-15-15-15-34 2T... I want it to run at boost for cpu freq now but not overclock the ram any further to cause instability.. Anything I can do? XFR and PBO is off I believe

Turn those on, should boost by itself

The CPU should

I got a B550 with 8+4 PCIE CPU power. Using the 4 pin recommended for a 5600X? Only had 8 on my X570 and things were just fine. Both mobos are 12+2 phase power supply to CPU. Maybe the 4 extra will be some good overhead?

quick rose
#

8 pin

#

Only need the sxtra 4 pin if heavy overclock

#

Like, LN2 overclock

tall pelican
#

and its just cpu or pcie, not pcie cpu

sterile flame
#

I was talking about the specific power cable and if it's not called PCIE power then ok

sterile flame
cold jolt
#

its called an 8 pin EPS connector

#

also, they dont really have set power limits, so its just gonna keep drawing wattage till the connector melt

#

and no way in hell a 5600x gonna draw enough to do anything like that

sterile flame
#

122 watts only

tall pelican
#

8 pin eps is rated for 400w for standard pins

#

high current pins (gigabyte and some asus) are closer to 480-500w

sterile flame
#

What's the reasoning for two 8 pin on a 3080 that doesn't draw more than 320 watts?

tall pelican
#

8 pin pcie only have 3 power pins per 8 pin connector, and each pin spec is like 30-50w

sterile flame
#

For every pin a ground?

#

Or every other?

tall pelican
#

nvidia is also strict about it and says AIBs have to limit bios to the 75w for 6 pin, 150w for 8 pin and 75w pcie slot

sterile flame
#

I think EVGA was called out for drawing more than 80

tall pelican
sterile flame
#

Some drama affecting preformance

tall pelican
#

sense are grounds

sterile flame
#

Why is it called sense?

tall pelican
#

because the gpu can "sense" those pins to determine 6 vs 8 pin connectors

But I don't think I can go much higher than 4.8

brazen walrus

I'm seriously debating whether it's worth the extra heat generated for an additional .1 GHz.

Unless you have an NH-D15, you probably don't want to go above 1.4v.

Anyone else got a 5600X? Been screwing around tweaking and now my score in Cinebench is 11782. Was curious about what I'd get with a negative 30 offset but my chip is not stable at that. Negative 25 for me. I want to compare and share info.

#

Strangely scores get slowly and consistently worse the higher I go past 4.6

#

What yall think about this. Cinebench the 5600X tops at 4.6Ghz all core, but in games/3DMark it's 4.849 all core

#

11789 with 28 offset in curve optimizer so close to breaking 11800 regardless of irl gaming performance being almost no different! 😀

tall pelican
#

I ran hwinfo in the background, gamed for an hour, and compared max effective clocks. Just maxing out pbo boost gave highest effective clocks

sterile flame
tall pelican
#

No, where are you getting the 4.849 all core from?

#

That sounds like a ratio and not effective clock

sterile flame
#

HWMonitor?

#

What's the difference between ratio and effective?

#

When it comes to temperatures there are inconsistencies between HWMonitor and 3DMark

tall pelican
#

Ratio would be it spiking to 4.85, effective is what's being used by programs

#

Think of having a 5 gallon bucket being 5ghz, but only filling it with 3 gallons of water (3ghz effective)

#

With zen2 and 3, effective is what you want to watch because of boosting behavior

#

And not sure if hwmonitor does effective clock, but hwinfo64 does

sterile flame
#

No effective clock in it, no.

tall pelican
#

Hwinfo64, run it in sensors only mode

sterile flame
#

You telling me regardless of say a 4.7Ghz clock. The program wouldn't utilize more than 4.5? Or am I missing something?

#

Misleading numbers?

tall pelican
#

If your program hits 4.5ghz effective, and hwinfo shows that thread at 100% utilization, then that's PB coming into effect

#

It'll idle boost to 4.9 or whatever, but under load only hit 4.5

quick rose
#

Doesn't 5000 series boost a single core higher like Intel does?

#

Or no?

sterile flame
#

92% utilization, but right now I'm running ram/cpu stress test in Prime95

#

Ryzen 5000 on older bios versions and everything set to auto, yeah

tall pelican
#

Zen2 introduced core rating, so windows knows which core to assign loads to

quick rose
#

I honestly forgot about that

tall pelican
#

Ya

quick rose
#

I have my PBO set up a bit on the strong side so I don't think I've ever seen a single core boost

tall pelican
#

On my 3900xt, best core could hit 5ghz, 5800x has seen 4.8 effective

#

It'll boost if you run a light single thread load, like cinebench

sterile flame
#

How long do I run Prime95 for RAM stress testing?

quick rose
#

Ah, cinebench single core. I'm curious now

tall pelican
tall pelican
quick rose
#

P95 doesn't do a very good job

tall pelican
#

Yeah, you want a dedicated ram test

sterile flame
#

It was something along the lines of large FFTS Memory controller/RAM stress test, but it spikes the heat on my CPU bad

quick rose
#

Yep, use the Testmem5 test if you want to test RAM. A couple posts down there are setting recommendations for the settings

sterile flame
#

So every core/thread is 100% utilization, 4.6 all cores. 4.3 effective all core

#

What is Residency

tall pelican
#

that's sleeping

#

this is what you'd see as "4.9 all core" but since the max on any core is just 4.74, that's what its boosting to

#

then you have zen2 which on occasion would boost higher than the "ratio"

sterile flame
#

The difference between Fmax off vs on. Broke 11800 for a score of 11820. Only change was Fmax to off and curve optimizer negative offset was set back to 25

#

Basically screw Fmax. It's garbage.

#

It was on auto up until now.

tall pelican

fmax if you're doing single core loads, CO if mt

Likely upgrading to Zen 3 once it's available. I've heard people say rather than manually overclocking, you should just use some boost thing. Is that PBO or something else? I have a non-X Zen+, so I have no experience with PBO.

question

#

i did msi afterburner's overclock scanner and it said I could overclock my gpu to around 120mhz

#

but when i did the test thing to see if it was stable

#

it said it was overclocking it to +150mhz

#

not 120

#

should I overclock my gpu to 150 or 120?

#

thanks

tall pelican
#

test both?

sterile flame
#

go as high as you want aslong as its stable

restive cargo
#

@short spruce I'd set your power limits to their max in Afterburner and lock your fan speed at like 70% or so to simulate a real world load situation.

#

If you were going to a HWBOT submission or something then you'd have the fans at 100% to get the absolute last bit of perf from it.

#

But for a daily staible oc 70% fans speed max power limit and keep increasing your core speed until you crash then try your memory with the last stabil core clock.
