Some bios will automatically set defaults if it fails the memory test on post, does yours have that option?

sterile flame
#

What would it say?

sudden torrent
#

Something like "memory failure retry"

sterile flame
#

No

#

Black screen

#

No post

sudden torrent
#

That's what it's called in MSI settings at least

sterile flame
#

Just yellow light

sudden torrent
#

No post then clear cmos

sterile flame
#

Done

sudden torrent
#

And try the slightly higher timings next time

sterile flame
#

Could that of worked if it was at higher voltage

#

Since it still was at 1.4

sudden torrent
#

Possibly

#

Worth a try, low voltage can definitely cause post fail

sterile flame
#

This was all of it right?

sudden torrent
#

trcdwr 8

#

tras 26h

sterile flame
#

Still nothibg

#

Go up 1?

#

On each value

sudden torrent
#

Try trcdrd and trp +1

#

And maybe tras 28h

sterile flame
sudden torrent
#

tras 28h

#

Gotta get it to post before we narrow down which one it doesn't like

sterile flame
#

Ah

#

But settings are right?

#

Made sure voltage is 1.45

sudden torrent
#

Yes

#

You can try SoC voltage 1.05 too, might help

sterile flame
#

Oh

#

Its at 1.1 now

sudden torrent
#

That's good then

sterile flame
#

Iod is at 1.050

#

Ccd same thibg

#

Vddcr auto

sudden torrent
#

dram voltage still says 1.4v?

sterile flame
#

No

#

1.45

sudden torrent
#

Should be good then on voltages

sterile flame
#

Is there no way to preset options?

#

So you dont need to redo everything

sudden torrent
#

idk with asus but you can save profiles with MSI

sterile flame
#

Oh and cldo is 0.950

sudden torrent
#

Profile saving is in tools menu

#

You'll need a fat32 usb

sterile flame
#

Aight

#

Is cldo good

sudden torrent
#

No reason to touch it right now

sterile flame
#

And now timings?

#

Same thing but?

sudden torrent
#

Did the higher timings not post?

sterile flame
#

No

#

Didnt post

sudden torrent
#

Ok, same timings but tras 2Ah

sterile flame
#

Wait from last time or before

sudden torrent
#

Same as that screenshot

#

except tras

sterile flame
#

Oh okay

#

No need to mess with trp?

#

Last time we upped 1

sudden torrent
#

Not yet, one thing at a time is usually best

sterile flame
#

I dont have

sudden torrent
#

If it fails again try trcdwr 9

sterile flame
#

2ah

#

Only 3ah

#

Wait nvm

#

3ah is very bottom

#

2ah is middle for spme reason

#

Sone

#

Some

sudden torrent
#

3Ah = 58, which is probably way too high lol

sterile flame
#

Lol

#

Bruh

#

Do ram timings never post

sudden torrent
#

2Ah = 42

#

It can be tricky

sterile flame
#

Resetting cmos

#

So keep ss settings

sudden torrent
#

Sometimes I find enabling XMP and then save/reboot helps when I tune timing manually

sterile flame
#

Trcdwr 9

#

Aight

#

Holy

#

It posted

#

What

#

It was memory speed set to auto

#

Posted

#

Set to 3800 not post

sudden torrent
#

It wanted to psyche you out

sterile flame
#

Lol

#

What even happened

sudden torrent
#

"April fools!" - your motherboard ❤️

sterile flame
#

Bruh lma

#

O

#

I took the L

#

Try same thing?

#

Or wutt

#

Ugh

#

No ideas? lol

sudden torrent
#

Sorry had to do a bathroom run

sterile flame
#

The motherboard wanted to juke me

#

Oh u good

sudden torrent
#

Try like I said and enable XMP, you said before you needed to do 3733 before it would do 3800 right?

sterile flame
#

Yeah. Tried that last run, let me try that but with the settings we just did

sudden torrent
#

Enable XMP, save/reboot, go back in and then change timings

#

Another thing you can try to help narrow down the problem is to set clock speed to 3733 and try the timings, if it still doesn't post it's probably the timings

sterile flame
#

But after xmp change speed?

#

Set it to 3600

#

18-22-22-42

sudden torrent
#

Once you reboot yes, go ahead and set it to whichever speed you want to test

sterile flame
#

Xmp did nothing

#

Let me try 3733

#

Didnt post 3733

#

Uh

#

Change timings?

sudden torrent
#

Yeah the timings are probably too tight, you might have a low bin

sterile flame
#

So trash ram and good cpu

sudden torrent
#

Not necessarily, it was rated 3600?

sterile flame
#

Yeah

#

3600cl18

sudden torrent
#

Doing 3800 C18 isn't that bad considering hynix

#

But you can possibly get it lower still

sterile flame
#

Was hoping 3800 c16 could get into my reach

upper rock
#

SK Hynix OP

sterile flame
#

Any guides i could read about trcd and trcwr, like how they work and what they usually are

#

Also what if memory speed is on auto

#

Since it posted that time

sudden torrent
#

Auto memory speed will do 3600 if XMP is on, lower if not (whatever your jedec speed is)

sterile flame
#

Oof

sudden torrent
#

Ok, here's what you can try that will certainly work to get you the best timings your chips will do, reboot after each change:
Enable XMP. Increase clock speed (and change voltage). Reduce tcl. Reduce timings one by one, as far down as it will go before it's not stable in occt. Repeat for sub-timings (tertiary).
Done properly this process can take a couple hours, but will get you the absolute best timings you can get at that voltage. You can save a working profile before reducing settings again so you don't need to change everything all over again if it doesn't post.

sterile flame
#

Wait reduce cas

#

Like cl16 to 14?

sudden torrent
#

If you want to try to get it to 14 you can, but I don't think you could do 3800c14 without Samsung B-die.

#

16 is probably as low as yours will go

sterile flame
#

Then wdym lower it?

#

Like 16

sudden torrent
#

Yeah, you said XMP sets it to 18 right? Lower that to 16

sterile flame
#

Does micron e die do as good as bdie

#

Yeah

sudden torrent
#

Ehhh, almost. It doesn't scale as well with voltage. I can only do 3800c14 on mine with over 1.5v.

sterile flame
#

ah

#

Arent b die kits hella expensive

#

Since most are mixed

#

Like lpx has mixed bins

#

Also do each timing at a time?

#

Like trdwr one time doesnt post

#

Move to trp

sudden torrent
#

Not all of them. My kit was $110 (plus rgb) and it's rated 4133c19.

sterile flame
#

Damn

sudden torrent
#

Yes do one at a time, as far down as it wants to go before it's not stable doing occt for at least 15 minutes.

sterile flame
#

Alright

#

So what does each thing mean

#

Trcd

#

Trcdwr

#

Etc

#

Theres like 20

sudden torrent
#
sterile flame
#

Okay, will read that

sudden torrent
#

That covers the primaries at least, you can look at r/overclocking wiki for more info

sterile flame
#

Aight

proven canopy
#

Why are the timings in hex?

sudden torrent
#

No idea, but I know that in my MSI menu there's actually 2 overclocking sections and one is in hex while the other is in dec

tall pelican
#

some OEMs do it (cough cough dell cough) to prevent customers from messing with timings on their otherwise unlocked motherboards

steady inlet
#

Should I use high or turbo? From what I was reading online high is similar to LLC5 or something but not sure @proven canopy

#

Shooting for 5.2 on 1.4v

#

With ring of 48

proven canopy
#

I think high is fine - I would just test and see how much droop you get

#

Whatever setting gives you stability with the lowest load voltage

steady inlet
#

What is droop lol

proven canopy
#

voltage

steady inlet
#

Ah ok

#

Hah instant blue screen

tall pelican
#

medium or high for gigabyte

steady inlet
#

ah

#

aaaaaaaaaa

#

too high. I have it set to 1.4 and this mobo is shooting 1.6 into it

#

what the hell

tall pelican
#

I 100% doubt that

#

what's vr vout at?

steady inlet
#

hold on im going to go to bios and show you what I have it set on

#

I have a lot of other stuff set on auto

#

What’s vr vout

#

@tall pelican

tall pelican
#

where do you get the 1.6v from though?

steady inlet
#

Core 0 max (third column)

#

On the screenshot

tall pelican
#

that's vid

steady inlet
#

O

tall pelican
#

say a kid is screaming that he wants 16 (1.6 vid) candies and you only give him 14 (1.4 set in bios), how many candies is he actually getting?

upper rock
#

14?

steady inlet
#

upper rock
#

Or does he steal the other two?

#

Oh hey George

#

???

steady inlet
#

Hello Sara

tall pelican
#

look at vr vout

steady inlet
#

Is that shown on hwinfo?

#

I’ll go check

#

so should be fine

tall pelican
#

ya

steady inlet
#

just doing benching

#

this isnt a daily

proven canopy
#

Lot of guys daily 1.4v, as long as you can cool it

steady inlet
#

on 7zip I think max it got was 86C

#

then my pc bricked up when I tried ycruncher lol

#

had to force shutdown

#

Yep just bricked again. Can’t do ycruncher at 5.2 1.4v

#

Ycruncher 1b or 2.5b

#

Both can’t lol

proven canopy
#

ycrncher is one of the hottest, most intense benchmarks

#

That and x265 4k

#

My 10900k could do every 2d bench except ycruncher at 1.4v, needed 1.425 to pass 1b at 5.3

steady inlet
#

I couldnt even pass r23

#

now im trying 1.420

#

I can’t LOL keeps freezing mid test

#

Also that’s the highest power consumption I’ve ever seen my cpu do

upper rock
#

Hot damn (literally)

#

What bench, what cooler?

steady inlet
#

R23 hah

#

Z73 Kraken

#

I give up on 5.2ghz

#

Bryce has me beat

upper rock
#

How tf are you pulling 230 watts on R23 with a Z73

#

That’s 240 isn’t it?

#

mm

steady inlet
#

It’s a 360 rad

upper rock
#

Damn

#

Still 230 watts on a 10700k is impressive as hell

#

Wonder how high you could get it on LN2

steady inlet
#

240w but yea

upper rock
#

Golden sample or just OC magic?

tall pelican
#

1.4v

#

Oh, that's just a 10700k too. My 9700k would be like 180w in r20

#

10900kf testing this weekend mildpanic

sudden torrent
#

At least it's not a 11900k. What did that thing pull, like 300W?

tall pelican
#

10900k can/should do close to 300w, even without avx512

sterile flame
#

i was putting 185w on my 5900x and it was 87c

#

h100i with static 1800 rpm fans

sterile flame
sterile flame
#

with mem at 3400mhz

1.45v

#

tall pelican
#

Well yeah, trcd and trp are too tight for cjr at that speed

sterile flame
#

My 11600k pulls about 250 watts peak under heavy synthetic load

tall pelican

give it avx512

guys what is the best overclock for rtx 2060 mobile 115w ?

dull ginkgo
#

Silicon lottery

tall pelican
sudden torrent
#

Under 7ns? Beautiful

tall pelican
#

still need to tune it, was just testing max freq

sudden torrent
#

I'd certainly like to see what a master can do once you've got it at the peak

short blade
#

how's -15 all core curve optimizer for a 5600x silicon lottery wise?

#

seen it boost up to 4.9ghz in games

#

maintains 85C in prime95 small ffts avx

#

my gpu is probably bottom 1% so hopefully I at least got a decent cpu

tall pelican
#

-15 alone doesnt mean anything since its based off stock VID table of the cpu

short blade
#

hm

#

it hits 4630 in r20

#

I haven't gotten the time to oc ram yet

#

am excited to try

#

bought some micron rev. e

#

hoping for 4000c18

sudden torrent
#

4630 isn't bad. You changed your boost offset right?
You can probably do -25 on your 2 best cores. Ryzen Master will tell you which, click CCD 0 to expand the view and look for the star and circle. Your BIOS might start counting cores from 0, if that's the case core 1 is core 0, core 2 is core 1, etc.

short blade
#

yeah boost offset is +500

#

i checked ryzen master and it said best cores were 2 and 3 (starting from 0)

#

initially tried -20 all cores

#

passed prime95 small ffts avx

#

but crashed at low load

#

so i tried -15 -15 -20 -20 -15 -15 and same thing

#

-15 all cores is working perfectly

#

running games i can see it sometimes reach 4.9 ghz

#

my 3600x peaked at 4.45ghz and lower ipc so

#

pretty neat

tall pelican
sudden torrent
#

Sounds about average to me as far as silicon lottery

short blade
#

average?

#

i'll take it

#

my 3080 could not be more of a potato

sudden torrent
#

Not exceptional, but definitely not bad

#

Considering the 5600X is just a 5800X that couldn't make the cut, I wouldn't ask for much more than that

short blade
#

even with modded thermal pads and active backplate cooling it can't go any higher than +650 vram

#

other people doing +1400 on their 3080

#

35C core 70C mem

#

is micron rev. e typically capable of 3800c14 at daily safe voltage?

#

i was running hynix djr at 3800 16-19-21-36 1.42V

tall pelican
#

given daily safe is 1.6v, yeah

short blade
#

oh wow

#

i had read that it was 1.45v for rev. e without active ram cooling

tall pelican
#

reve doesnt have issues until 70c+

short blade
#

not even destabilization?

tall pelican
#

nope

#

70c is destabilization

#

120c is degradation

short blade
#

i see

#

thank you

#

i have 8 case fans but they're all at like 40%

#

hopefully that's still enough airflow

tall pelican
#

I only needed to cool mine while stress testing

short blade
#

ambient temps in cali can get really high

tall pelican
#

Im in so cal lmao

#

was like 90f the other day

short blade
#

hottest i've recorded in my room was 42C ambient

#

when our a/c broke in the middle of that heat wave last august

tall pelican
#

oh yeah, we have 2 a/c units because we'd literally die if one went out

short blade
#

tbf it only got that hot because i was still trying to game

lavish tundra
#

bruh 42 degrees is an average summer here

short blade
#

but that's inside my room

#

not outside

#

can present some additional challenge for overclocking

sudden torrent
#

Nah just gotta break out the LN2 pot

short blade
#

true, daily ln2 moment

sudden torrent
#

The non medical stuff is really cheap too

#

It's entirely possible to daily that, but hard to top off mid fight

short blade
#

i'm sure condensation would also be a constant worry

#

at that point you'd just have to wrap literally everything

#

if you wanted to daily ln2

sudden torrent
#

You'd be ok for a couple hours of gaming at a time with an hour break between sessions if you slather the board with petroleum jelly

short blade
#

all to get 0 more fps in league of legends

sudden torrent
#

If you're only playing LoL you shouldn't go too far over ambient anyway

I mostly play light games occasionally play the more heavy stuff

short blade
#

anything above 1900 fclk has whea errors instantly lol

#

you were right

#

I tested it anyways

tall pelican
#

yeah

#

bfv is the best whea tester imo

sudden torrent
#

Yep. I had mine running "stable" at 2000, no crashes or anything weird. Load up OCCT and dozens of errors in seconds.

short blade
#

i don't have bfv

#

using prime95 large ffts rn

tall pelican
#

large is nice because ram+cpu

short blade
#

huh

tall pelican
#

I still like bfv because ram+cpu+gpu

short blade
#

looks like my ram doesn't have temp sensors

#

will that be a problem

tall pelican
#

ic?

short blade
#

micron rev e D9WFL, jedec bin -062E

tall pelican
#

ehhh probably fine

short blade
#

i just physically touched it it's running at room temperature

tall pelican
#

if you give it 1.5v and no airflow (watercooled cpu), it might error after a half hour

sudden torrent
#

Slap a fan over it if you push the voltage, but probably ok

short blade
#

i do have water cooled cpu but i have a ton of case fans

#

triple exhaust on top of them

tall pelican
#

my reve would get painful to touch before it errored from thermals

short blade
#

gpu limited to 120W

#

i typed 1.5V into bios

#

that makes peak voltage 1.524V

sudden torrent
#

Probably fine. That's what my b-die is at.

short blade
#

yeah they are not warmer than the air around them at all

#

i'm just testing 3800 16-27-27-58 rn to test if fclk is stable at 1900

#

will try to tighten timings now

#

should i start by trying to drop cas to 14?

#

or is 1.5V too low for that

sudden torrent
#

I'm at 14 with 1.52

short blade
#

okay I'll try it

tall pelican
sudden torrent
#

But rev e might be different, give it a shot though

short blade
#

what are you running on vsoc

#

I have 1.1

sudden torrent
#

1.1

short blade
#

b-die should be better than rev. e

#

so idk if 3800c14 is gonna work on these voltages

#

it's booting

tall pelican
#

I needed 1.15 for dr

short blade
#

single rank

#

2x8

tall pelican
#

might be able to do less, or gdm off

short blade
#

I have gdm on rn

#

I'm just making everything else as loose as possible

#

to see if 3800c14 is possible

#

tighten later

tall pelican
#

yeah, I'm just saying with 2x8, you might be able to get gdm off stable as well

short blade
#

it is passing benchmark so far

#

I'm gonna get lunch while that runs

#

lol

sudden torrent
#

Here's mine, do what you will with it keeping in mind it's b-die

short blade
#

I was going to refer to this for subtimings

#

cause I don't know anything about them

tall pelican
#

my dr reve, dont expect trcdrd to go to 17 though

short blade
#

@tall pelican what are tRFC2 and tRFC4?

tall pelican
#

doesnt matter

short blade
#

okay

short blade
#

thank you

tall pelican
#

Yup np

short blade
#

this is my baseline for now need to increase some as i bench and find errors

#

right now it's getting errors in OCCT so definitely not done yet

tall pelican
#

my SCLs didnt like to tighten a bunch, they were pretty much on auto iirc

#

SD for dual rank stick timings, DD for dual stick timings

#

(per channel)

short blade
#

I just set SCLs to auto as well and they're 5 now

#

trying tRDWR 10 while I'm at it

#

still getting errors

sudden torrent
#

More voltage?

short blade
#

think I'm gonna set timings I'm unsure about to auto one by one and see when I stop getting them

#

I upped it to 1.55v do you think it needs more?

#

wow auto set tFAW all the way to 40

sudden torrent
#

Not surprising, that's the XMP settings on my sticks

short blade
#

it has gotten farther than before without errors though

#

so tFAW too tight may have been the culprit

#

gonna bench it for a while with 40 tFAW and a 100% gpu load

#

just to make sure it's the culprit

#

then try to tighten it

#

lol got greedy and tried to re-tighten SCLs after loosening tFAW

#

first time it failed hard enough to bsod

#

those are definitely not going down to 3

#

removing other variables trying to tighten them to 4

#

but I might just have to run them both at 5

#

is it normal for tFAW to not be able to budge below 28?

sudden torrent
#

Probably for your die, since mine went to 20

tall pelican
#

not bad for a meh OS

short blade
#

wow

short blade
#

I gave in and slightly loosened primaries

#

doesn't seem like tFAW was the culprit after all

#

i tried upping voltage to 1.6V and still get errors with these timings

#

not sure what to try now

#

honestly not sure how comfortable I am with 1.6V when my ram has no temp sensors

#

I'm going to try increasing tRAS and tRC incrementally

#

also changing tRCDWR back to match tRCDRD

#

I get sadder every time I have to loosen timings 😔

tall pelican
#

trc might be too tight

short blade
#

trying this now, have loosened almost all timings by now

#

I feel like the timings are getting really loose

#

still errors

#

maybe cl14 is just too much?

#

changing tFAW back to 28

#

if that's still not stable idk what to do

#

still error

tall pelican
#

cl14 might be too much, what vdimm?

short blade
#

1.6

tall pelican
#

set vttddr to .7?

short blade
#

what is that

#

not sure if I've seen a be setting named that

#

done for today though I'll try again another time

tall pelican
#

yeah, you do have it, I'll find the name for it

short blade
#

I noticed tRFC is 350ns on xmp

#

think I should try 350ns instead of 320?

tall pelican
#

nah, reve does 300ns without issue, and jedec is 350ns

bright thorn
#

For prime95 do I do large fft for like 2 hrs then do which fft for another 2hrs?

dull ginkgo
#

what

#

smallfft for heat

#

large dataset might be better for finding errors

proven canopy
#

Use occt

#

ye occt large dataset might be better for erros

Gigabyte Aorus Engine Vs Msi Afterburner ???

quick rose
#

MSI Afterburner

sterile flame
#

why ?

quick rose
#

WOrks with everything, easy to use

#

Pretty much the standard for GPU overclocking

sterile flame
#

is there any other software then this 2 ?

IDK, I only use Afterburner

#

EVGA Precision is Meh

sterile flame

#

I just told you the best one

better than msi afterburner ?

Auto overclocking never as good as manual

sudden torrent
#

Yeah it's meh but we were asked for options

#

At least it lets you bump limits and tune fan curves

sterile flame
#

is it like doing permanently or do i have open the app everytime ?

quick rose
#

yes to both

#

Can do it either way

sudden torrent
#

There's a setting. While you're figuring out the best overclock keep it to defaults on boot in case of overclock failure causing you to need to reboot.

oh wait it only works on rtx gpu cards

Afterburner works for others what do you mean? Any AMD or Nvidia card from the last 5 years or so should

sterile flame
#

nvidia says your laptop does not support this feature 😦

sudden torrent
#

Oh a laptop, nope can't usually do any overclocking at all on those

sterile flame
#

wha ?

#

😦

sudden torrent
#

Laptops are rated to use a specific amount of power, overclocking increases power draw. Even if your power cord could keep up with the added strain it would get hot enough to burn you on touch.

quick rose
#

Not only that the brick can only supply so much power also

sterile flame
#

but jarrods tech did overclock to the laptop 😦

#

my power brick is 230w

Certain laptops can sure, but it has to be made to do it

this is the overclock used on video :/

That looks like software made for that model

Has to be a legion laptop

sterile flame

there is no memory overclock in the legion software

sudden torrent
#

Then it's probably not supported on your model

If it's a laptop MSI probs won't work either

idk if it is working or not

Did you hit the check mark?

sterile flame
#

yes

sudden torrent
#

Then test it in a game

sterile flame
#

it still says 300 mhz and 405 mhz

sudden torrent
#

Or benchmark would be better to compare to previous results

sterile flame
#

okay i use userbenchmark for it

sudden torrent
#

That's the minimum state when it's idle

#

Sure that'll at least tell you if there's any immediate problems

quick rose
#

Use heaven or something XD

sudden torrent
#

But a stress test would be better (yeah like that)

sterile flame
#

OMG

#

what the hell

#

this is without overclock

#

and this is with overclock

#

i just boosted 100mhz and 140mhz mem

sudden torrent
#

UB isn't great for comparisons like that, and you only got less than +3% overall anyway

sterile flame
#

what is greater ?

#

free benchmark tool ?

sudden torrent
#

A real benchmark like Time Spy would work. You can find the "demo" version in Steam on the 3dmark page, that's free.

sterile flame
#

is heaven benchmark good ?

sudden torrent
#

I'd use heaven for stress testing more than benching

sterile flame
#

oh

sudden torrent
#

But still do stress test too to see if you'll have problems with heat/power

sterile flame
#

okay this is weird

sudden torrent
#

It's overheating and reducing your effective speed probably

On what? CPU or GPU?

I wouldn't recommend overclocking your laptop, even tho i dont think you can, but it will drain battery way more and will probs thermal throttle with an OC and precision boost overdrive is really good

Okay so, overclocked CPU. All good. But I just realised - My GPU FPS in Kombustor goes down when my CPU util is high. Am I being limited by power?

zenith palm
#

Your OC could be unstable

#

What cpu and oc did you do?

sterile flame
#

It’s a core i5-4690k with a stable clock of 4.4ghz using a max of 110 watts, and an R9 280x with no overclock at 250 watts

#

Using a 600 watt PSU

zenith palm
#

What's your thermals look like?

sterile flame
#

High 80s on cpu, low 50s on gpu

#

Gpu is also only 85% loaded

zenith palm
#

Hmm, is your ram running in xmp?

sterile flame
#

Something else is using my GPU, basically, but I get 94 FPS in kombustor normally, then when I stress my CPU at the same time, I get 44

#

No XMP support as far as I’m aware

quick rose
#

Mmmm

sterile flame
#

I’m using DDR3

#

1333mhz

#

Max temp for that CPU is 73C according to Intel

sterile flame
#

According to CPU-Z the max temp is 100c

#

And there’s no thermal throttling at all

zenith palm
sterile flame
#

Ah right

#

Will this happen in games too?

zenith palm
zenith palm
#

Hardly any to my knowledge

Okay that’s good

I get like 240 FPS on fortnite at medium settings

To say I paid £120 for the whole rig, it’s really nice

#

You really should invest in a better cooler. High 80's isn't good. Repaste or pick up a $20 Gammax.

do you think 150 to 200 would be stable and not damage the gpu?

dull ginkgo

If you're just using afterburner, any OC with messing with the frequency is safe, as long as you don't apply on startup, worst thing that will happen is crashing

Neither px1 or afterburner will let you apply a dangerous voltage

@proven canopy afterburner doesn't let you lel, 25% is mininum, and for some reason, when my gpu is under heavy load, it likes to ignore what I manually set in afterburner, dunno if it's a feature or a bug

sudden torrent
#

My GPU lets me do 0% fan in Afterburner, it must vary by model. Mine specifically says it supports 0 RPM mode on packaging.

maybe a future bios update will make it stable

this is running on 1.5V though which is nice

bdie is temperature sensitive, and the rgb does add a significant amount of heat

30% is an extremely unrealistic expectation to set. The most I've seen is around 10-15% and that was an extreme case. Maybe if you did a full system overclock it would be closer to 20%.

proven mango

i got up to like maybe 10%?

#

yeah 225 and base clock is abt 1900

Doing the gpu alone that's pretty good going up 10%. Is that overall or just gpu score?

proven mango
#

just gpu

#

my cpu isnt overclockable since its non K

Overall it's probably around 8% I'd guess, gpu has the most impact.
Is your memory able to be overclocked? You can get serious gains.

Good, that sounds right. There's a few things you could do to get it slightly higher but not really worth doing for an extra 15 Mhz.

proven mango
#

would it be safe to turn on start with OS now

sudden torrent
#

Run a few more tests with some games you know it has trouble with, and if it's still stable after at least 15 minutes in each game I'd call it safe.

proven mango
#

it was only unstable in userbenchmark

#

and 3dmark

sudden torrent
#

UB is pretty bad anyway, but if it's unstable at all in anything then it's not safe to apply at boot since the gpu goes to max on boot.

sudden torrent
#

Well that's good, keep testing. I need to drop off my car at the shop so I'll be on later or one of our gurus can help you. I think you've got it from here though.

@proven mango my typical stability test for graphics cards is 3x fire strike ultra stress test and 1x time spy stress test

so that's 60 fire strike ultra and 20 time spy

proven mango

i did time spy and played a few games and it was alr

fire strike ultra tends to be more intensive than time spy especially if undervolting

Is it worth it performance wise.

say i Have an 11600k, should I overclock

sudden torrent
#

That depends wholly on your usage how much you'll get out of overclocking. Monitor your CPU usage (peak single core usage) while gaming and if you're getting to around 80% usage or higher it could be worth it. If it's lower than that probably not much to gain. Memory overclocking, on the other hand, is totally worth it and almost always gets you more frames.

#

On my 2070 I've been running Core Clock at +100 and Memory Clock at +600. Anyone got any idea if that's a normalish setup for one?

Depends on your model/binning. Mine is a factory overclocked MSI Gaming Z and I can do +75 core +680 mem, so I'd say yours sounds about right.

lilac geode
#

Its the plain jane Nvidia 2070.

sudden torrent
#

It'll be mostly up to binning then how high you can push it.

dull ginkgo

Sounds fine to me tbh

#

Mine did up to +1400mhz mem bootable, but not stable, +1200mhz is somewhat stable, and +800mhz mem for me was basically completely stable

Hello, I’m going to try binning 10600ks today, and I wanted to know what procedures I should follow to get the most accurate results. I have 13 new 10600ks and one in my pc at the moment (the one in my pc is potato binned and can’t oc). I had some idea what to do for the procedures but wasn’t sure what frequencies I should try.
My idea was:

  1. Stress test cpu with prime95 at stock, record temps
  2. Run 3Dmark and record score
  3. Try oc to (insert frequency and ring and voltage)
  4. Test if stable in prime95, if not slightly increase voltage, once stable record temps
  5. Record 3Dmark score
  6. Repeat
dull ginkgo
#

don't do p95 stock for temps, remember boosting behavior, chips like to just stop boosting when it gets hot :P

#

But I don't think 3dmark is the best for scoring CPU

#

something more like cinebench imo

#

(Run multi core and then single core)

#

Once you get to a freq you like to finish on, I say run whatever benchmark it is at least 5 times and record it down, just in case run to run variation, for more accurate data

mint mountain
#

What frequency and voltage and ring should I test for?

dull ginkgo
#

but p95 smallfft is great for heat, not great for errors if you just want to get a stable OC for daily

#

ring?

#

I'm not familiar with Intel CPU OC, so might want to ask forky or fitz about that

#

I assume it has something to do with llc?

sudden torrent
#

I'm more of an AMD guy too but maybe has to do with ringbus? (Intel's equivalent to IF)

mint mountain
#

I found what sips was telling me yesterday so I’ll try this

dull ginkgo
#

probably

mint mountain
short blade
#

cinebench is not a good stress test

#

i've had comical overclocks pass cinebench r20 that would not be even close to stable enough for daily use

it is, however, a good tool to make sure you're actually gaining performance

What should I stress with then

#

yeah cinebench is good for a performance metric

#

and i use it

#

but it is absolutely not a stability test

dull ginkgo
#

@mint mountain Also I was suggesting replacing the 3dmark score bit with cinebench, not the p95 bit

#

p95 bit was just, don't do p95 at stock, it'll just boost lower when it gets hot lol

mint mountain
#

Oh ok

short blade
#

this was done on a cpu that could only do 3.95ghz daily stable

dull ginkgo

tbh

#

@short blade cinebench requires me to put like 1.4v in for 4.4ghz on ma 3800x, it's very sad

short blade

this one was 4.2 daily

dull ginkgo

@short blade mine was 1.4v for 4.3ghz lmao

that's pain

i think it's clock stretching too

5.1ghz / 1.15 = 4434mhz

:(

so that real clock speed is lower than 4.3ghz

#

that's the pain of being an early adopter though

My chip is probably like a wood sample or whatever the lowest sample is :p

my personal cpu is probably bottom 1% so feel better

i have a 5600x that cannot do >1867 fclk and cannot boot above 4.7ghz with 1c/1t enabled and 1.5v

Smh

short blade
#

it's so bad i entertained the idea of buying a 5800x and selling this cursed cpu

short blade
#

but in actual gaming it acts like any other 5600x and i already spent 3 days ocing the ram

#

so i won't bother

love my PBO being scuffed

my gpu is too weak for the 5900x

😔

i didn't even need to upgrade my 3600x but i did it just because

What exactly is over clocking

ancient pumice
#

making a chip run faster than their base speeds

quick rose
#

Increasing CPU/GPU speed above manufacturers advertised limits

How would I know if I’ll be over clocking or if I am over clocking? Just by the parts?

it's your option to overclock, you don't have to if you don't want to
