overclocking

[modern walrus]

?

I've been at it awhile

a reallllly long facking time

[sudden torrent]

Little by little is good. If +175 ends up being optimal, going to +150 will miss those gains.

[modern walrus]

Your CPU is a 5900x?

[sudden torrent]

5800X but same concept

[modern walrus]

ya true

[sudden torrent]

More cores just means more tweaks to make in CO 🥲

[modern walrus]

I mean I was looking at forums & really north of 22000 aint too bad for this chip

people were all excited at 21500+

in CB I mean

[sudden torrent]

I figured

[modern walrus]

But then again I've heard claims of all core 50 so who knows

[sudden torrent]

22k gets you into the top 50 scores for a 12 core CPU on HWBot

[sudden torrent]

Usually liquid nitrogen

[modern walrus]

PBO will do that?

[sudden torrent]

Oh yeah, PBO will boost as long as the limits aren't hit. If you're running at a negative temp and power delivery is still good, it'll just keep going until it crashes.

[modern walrus]

hmm strange

bro wth

Why does it show Core 0 at 6,151.3mHz?

[sudden torrent]

WTF

[modern walrus]

Max

[sudden torrent]

That's the effective clock too, must be a bug

[modern walrus]

Something ain't right

bruh

[sudden torrent]

Besides that bug everything else lines up to the 25 less offset

I guess +200 is good

[modern walrus]

You think I've reached the limits?

Problem is I increase TDC/EDC

[sudden torrent]

You're probably pretty close, I'm looking at other HWBot subs and 4.6 all core is really good, almost record breaking for that CPU.

[modern walrus]

& it won't get much higher (if it does at all anyway)

but it'll raise voltage

& I don't wanna be north of 1.300

under load I mean

like raising TDC/EDC only increases voltage & heat

nothing else

useless

I guess it's been a good night tho. I mean 6.1gHz single-core, 17 million on CB R23

lol

[sudden torrent]

I certainly couldn't ask for more than that lol

[modern walrus]

Too bad that probably just means something is messed up

[sudden torrent]

I would love for my core to hit 6GHz

[modern walrus]

I don't know how else to get these numbers up at this point

unless I just say to heck with caring if I'm over 1.3v

which is a bad idea

[sudden torrent]

You could do that to put in a submission for clock speed, then drop it for daily use. You could get the Newegg team a few points with that, just sayin.

[modern walrus]

how do I do that?

[sudden torrent]

hwbot.org

Sign up for an account, and you can pick the Wegg team on signup

Then you can just use benchmate to automate everything from validating entries to downloading various software for benching

[modern walrus]

ok crap I signed in with Google

Let me see if I can find where to add it

what's "extreme cooled submissions?"

N2, etc?

[sudden torrent]

Yeah that's liquid nitrogen and helium

[modern walrus]

okay joining Wegg

how do I like...submit stuff?

I guess I've signed up before because I have 11 achievements lol

[sudden torrent]

Each category has its own guidelines for submitting. Many things can be automated with benchmate. You can read the rules for each category.

[modern walrus]

wait I'm not sure now I'm wrong

okay I'll check it out

wow CB R23 world record is 113,566. I destroyed that lmao

[sudden torrent]

And that's with way more cpu cores too

[modern walrus]

jeez I'm barely over 22k 113k? good lord

[sudden torrent]

Pretty sure that's a 32 core threadripper hitting 100k+

[modern walrus]

Has to be

[sudden torrent]

One fun thing to remember is that you don't need to be stable to submit, just stable enough to pass the test and take a Screenshot. Some things don't even have a test, like frequency records.

[modern walrus]

hmm I wonder if my 10900K is better for that then haha

So it's just screenshots? seems easy to manipulate lol

I'd rather just do the auto-submit ones

[sudden torrent]

That's what benchmate is for, and the screenshots have to include other info so if something doesn't add up you'll get flagged.

[modern walrus]

tight. What should I try first. What's GPUPI?

[sudden torrent]

Calculating pi to a certain number of digits, optionally using gpu to accelerate the calculation.

Hence, gpu pi

[modern walrus]

I'm doing R23 rn

does it rank by CPU?

[sudden torrent]

Make sure to include your cpu-z info like it says in rules

It ranks by core count

8 core vs 8 core, etc

[modern walrus]

oh it doesn't automatically submit or something?

[sudden torrent]

It'll do most of the work but cpu-z is mostly just extra insurance against being flagged

[modern walrus]

okay it's open rn

[sudden torrent]

When you go to submit it'll bring up the page with basic details filled and you can add info like memory speed, motherboard, etc

[modern walrus]

You sure I'm not gonna like bring down the team average or something? lol

[sudden torrent]

Not possible

If it was then I would have done it lol

[modern walrus]

I'm getting like 4522mHz

meh

[sudden torrent]

You changed back to +200?

[modern walrus]

oh crap I forgot to fix that

ooops

I'll fix it after this bench

rn it's looking like I'm gonna come in over 22215 so I'm gonna let it ride

[sudden torrent]

No harm in submitting to see what it looks like before you crank it up

[modern walrus]

ya true. Gotta get a baseline

Before when I had no idea you were supposed to use PBO, I got 23193 with 47 all core

I was trying to overclock like I did on the 10900K

Then everyone is like "you're stupid you gotta use PBO"

[sudden torrent]

Not that it's stupid, it's just really bad for the chip

[modern walrus]

I think the system crashed right after that but it's still logged haha

I had it on set core voltage

I don't recall what tho

I think I saved the profile

might be in BIOS still

Probably north of 1.3 tho

before I was told that's too high

core voltage is 1.296 rn with the 4505gHz

Is CPU-Z as accurate as HWiNFO SW whatever

[sudden torrent]

4.7 GHz would get you around 5th for your processor on the leaderboard

[modern walrus]

damn I'm putting up 1.312v now

no bueno

1 minute left

[sudden torrent]

You can run it at that temporarily to submit the frequency

[modern walrus]

Why is PBO allowing this high voltage?

[sudden torrent]

It allows it in short bursts. It's sustained load at too-high voltage that degrades.

[modern walrus]

22206 darn it

But if I mess with TDC/EDC/PPT PBO will exceed safe voltages?

it says this result cannot be saved

wtf

[sudden torrent]

The processor safeties will be disabled if you adjust either LLC (load line calibration) or set a static voltage

[modern walrus]

I didn't mess with those

I did for all core but not this

[sudden torrent]

https://hwbot.org/rules?referenceId=5165

Just for reference

[modern walrus]

heck. I read this before

[sudden torrent]

22206 would put you at #48 on the rankings for 12 core processors

And would also beat our team best

[modern walrus]

well heck I cannot submit

I'm running it agasin

it's keeping it at steady 1.312v

this worries me

22739 would be pimpin

Whoa I hope that submits

Do I need to run the entire thing if it shows there already??

[sudden torrent]

It needs to complete if that's what you mean. It needs to show the rendered scene.

[modern walrus]

oh got it

it'll probably come in lower than that but if it holds that's fantastic

[sudden torrent]

22739 would place you at #46

[modern walrus]

bro wth

22682

but I no longer have option to submit

[sudden torrent]

Did you save the result (F6) so it uploads the screenshot?

[modern walrus]

I'm supposed to do that while it's running/

because about halfway through the option disappeared

[sudden torrent]

Just after it completes, unless it detected some issue with the system clock. That could also explain the odd behavior like abnormal clock speed and score. Maybe a bios update is in order, or a new cmos battery?

[modern walrus]

The motherboard is less than like

5 months old...?

& I'm pretty sure BIOS is up to date

[sudden torrent]

I've had to replace the battery off the shelf before

Bios can be updated every month on some boards

[modern walrus]

hmm maybe

this is the first time I've had issues

but I've also been playing with settings all night

gonna check for BIOS update then restart at elast

least

there's a newer version but it's a beta

[sudden torrent]

Up to you on that one then

Meanwhile you inspired me to run ycruncher and got a pretty decent score, should get us a few points

[modern walrus]

it has "update AMD AM4 AGESA V2 PI"

Do I want whatever that is enough to run beta BIOS?

[sudden torrent]

Wait WHAT

[modern walrus]

?

[sudden torrent]

I think that's the update that helps you get higher fclk

[modern walrus]

https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-b550-f-gaming-wi-fi-model/helpdesk_bios

but I already have it set at half of RAM

[sudden torrent]

Yeah, but what that means is you can run it faster and overclock your memory more

[modern walrus]

I left it at XMP

because any increase caused instability like crazy with this RAM

[sterile flame]

what speed/timing

[modern walrus]

It's 3800 but it's like 18

CAS

[sudden torrent]

You need to do more than just change speed

3800 is probably the max that's stable for your fclk

[modern walrus]

I can change 1T to 2T

then maybe tighten timings

[sterile flame]

tighten them

if you can't, try tightening at 3733 or 3600

[modern walrus]

but my research made me think 1T was better

[sudden torrent]

Nah command rate can be bad, tightening is good. C16 should be easy. C14 if you have epic RAM.

Best left at 1T command rate

[modern walrus]

I'd have to drop clock speed for sure

[sudden torrent]

No just increase voltage

What memory kit?

[modern walrus]

I upped it to 1.45

[sterile flame]

what die

[modern walrus]

G.Skill Trident Z Neo

uh hold up

[sudden torrent]

G.skill has a version number on the memory that tells you what die is on it

[modern walrus]

https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-64gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820374102?Item=N82E16820374102

F4-3800C18D-64GTZN

[sterile flame]

oh

its 32gb sticks

[modern walrus]

yes

[sterile flame]

yea i doubt you can get anything better than c16

[modern walrus]

it's c18 out of box

I tried to drop it before & had to reset CMOS everytime lol

[sudden torrent]

It could be b-die, you'd need the version number on the white sticker to be sure

If it's b-die then you got an epic kit

Come on 4.31 🎲

[sterile flame]

have fun

[modern walrus]

okay I dropped to +175. Let's see if I can submit some heckin results

[sudden torrent]

Dang Jan 2021 manufacture date, could be one of the newer dies

[sterile flame]

its 18-22-22 with 1.4 base

no shot its bdie

if it was 2x16 maybe

[sudden torrent]

I figured it was but I've seen rev.e with similar

[sterile flame]

crucial just sucks at factory timings

[sudden torrent]

Yeah good point, the 2x32 is a giveaway

[sterile flame]

most rev.e should easily do 5000c18 but they have like a c22 kit or sum at 5100

[modern walrus]

I tried upping it by like 66mHz & it crashed CMOS fun time

[sterile flame]

granted, you need specific aorus or modified boards for that 5000c18

[sterile flame]

so you haven't touched timings?

like before this

still worth a shot for c16

[sudden torrent]

If it is indeed b-die, which we believe it to be, safe voltage is around 1.7v in theory. In practice, around 1.5v or so is good if you have a fan near the sticks. Any higher you'll want a fan directly on them.

[modern walrus]

wtf it's showing voltage at 1.44+

[sudden torrent]

I'm running mine at 1.52v with no modifications, and it's RGB also

[modern walrus]

I mean CPU

[sudden torrent]

Is it still on auto? That's fine in bios

[modern walrus]

no on CB! lol

[sudden torrent]

Oh what, that's not good

[modern walrus]

ya I shut down

Gonna figure this crap out

man 1.7v??

That's a lot lmao

Should I bump it to 1.5?

[sudden torrent]

Yep, people do 1.7v on b-die for benching

[sterile flame]

you need a fan like right over it though for 1.7 so just do 1.5 for now

[sudden torrent]

1.5v should be safe and help tighten the timings

[south sky]

people do 2.2 for benchign too

[south sky]

MJR yikes

[sudden torrent]

I've seen that but that's typically on LN2 right?

[modern walrus]

What about these? lol

[south sky]

2.2v can be done ambient

[modern walrus]

2.2?? lol

[south sky]

ooh ajr

[modern walrus]

I have two sets

[sudden torrent]

I was about to say lol

[modern walrus]

one for 10900K (most recent--16gbx2) & one for 5900x (32gbx2)

[sterile flame]

that one will do 3600c16 at 1.45

oh 2x16

[south sky]

it'll do better then that

[sterile flame]

meant guaranteed

with tweaking def better

[modern walrus]

rn it's at 3400 16-19-19-36

really? I'm leaving this much on the table rn?

[sudden torrent]

Double checked the 042 code and yeah that 3800 kit is MJR. Should scale up to 1.45v, maybe higher but that's as far as they bin them.

[modern walrus]

I think I have it at 1.45 already

[sudden torrent]

I bet you can drop cas to 16 then, no issues.

[modern walrus]

It kept crashing when I tried that I think

CMOS CMOS CMOS

no fun

[sudden torrent]

Hmm, setting it to 1.45v in bios means it'll get less than that once under load. You can try going a little higher to compensate.

[south sky]

MJR is basically big CJR, so it's big garbage

[modern walrus]

It says SK Hynix on CPU-Z

[south sky]

not necessarily

VDIMM vrms are weird

[sudden torrent]

Well that's how it works on mine 🤷‍♂️

[south sky]

did you test it with a DMM?

The sensors aren't reliable at all

[sudden torrent]

I suppose I could probe it but, eh.

[modern walrus]

you actually put a multimeter on your RAM like that?

btw what do you do with Scalar? I left it on Auto

[sudden torrent]

Just the slot

[south sky]

leave it auto or 1x

[sudden torrent]

Leave scalar on auto, that's another one that can disable protections

[south sky]

afk xn means n times more degradation

[south sky]

it doesn't

Just makes the chip value it's own life less

[modern walrus]

lol

[sudden torrent]

I was told otherwise, but I know how knowledgeable you are

[south sky]

It's like the voltage slider on modern nvidia

more = faster deg

[modern walrus]

oh so I shuoldn't have that maxed out on my video card?

[south sky]

Well it makes it value it's life less, the only stuff I've seen on that was according to Nvidia, and they claimed maxed was 1 year whilst nothing was 5 years iirc

[modern walrus]

okay cool voltage is 1.288 under load now

just by dialing back EDC & TDC by 2 amps

go figure

[south sky]

I'm pretty sure 10x scalar vs 1x is around 50mv more voltage under load

[modern walrus]

1.256 under load on CB rn

maybe I should hit it up

22617

submitting

it'll let you submit a single render?

because the newer CB version has this awful minimum test duration thing I hate

[sudden torrent]

I got Wegg another 10 points from my ycruncher sub, I think I can do better but I'm calling it a night.
You don't need to enable that duration

[modern walrus]

lol so 30 second tests count?

wow

I might load that all core 47 OC & maybe bump to 48 haha

[sudden torrent]

It needs to be one full pass, so if it finishes in 30 seconds great

[modern walrus]

how many points will 22617 get? lol

uh now I get to figure out how to log in but with a gmail account

[sudden torrent]

Open up hwbot.org and it'll tell you what your username is, and you can always tell it to "update" your password from the account screen.

[modern walrus]

copy that

wants old password tho... heck

[sudden torrent]

Try your email password?

[modern walrus]

I'm gonna log out then do forgot password I guess

okay email sent

heckin mission

okay finally

wait one more thing

How do I find out my overall ranking??

[sudden torrent]

Click your score

It'll be on the left

[modern walrus]

46th

out of 110 meh

I'm 36th "in team"

so out of all the people on Wegg using 5900x then?

[sudden torrent]

That doesn't mean you're average, that means you're average on an overclocking website where people have liquid nitrogen tanks delivered weekly

That's global ranking

[modern walrus]

oh I'll sleep alright knowing that

[short blade]

select "advanced benchmark" under options

and you can turn it off

[short blade]

well i think i just made the ram frequency world record

[tall pelican]

4.0.4 doesnt work on z370?

[proven canopy]

hdr screenshot 🤮

[short blade]

im not sure this is just the version i had from my hm470 laptop and it worked so i didnt feel the need to change it

it just failed to load this one time

[modern walrus]

Thank you

[calm vector]

guys do you think i could overclock my pc

[zenith palm]

If you don't mind spending a bit of time it's worth it, well your graphics card anyway, guessing the specs in your name are right you cant overclock your cpu

[clever epoch]

Even with a locked Intel CPU, Z series motherboards allow setting increased power limits, no? That'll get you 90% of the performance of an overclock anyways

[short blade]

yeah

with i7-11700 and 3060 you'll be gpu bound in most situations so you should see nice benefit from ocing your gpu

and gpu is the easiest to oc

[olive onyx]

I wanna overclock my 2400mhz ram to 3200mhz Any timings or volts age suggestions?

[zenith palm]

Ehhh hold your hourses try get to 2666 first then 3000mhz, what ram kit do you have?

[olive onyx]

2666mhz is fine

Hyperx 2400mhz ram @zenith palm

[zenith palm]

Can you link me the kit please?

https://www.kingston.com/datasheets/HX424C15FB2_8.pdf

@olive onyx is there a sticker on the ram kit

[olive onyx]

There is

@zenith palm

[zenith palm]

Can you send a pic of it

[zenith palm]

Ehhh hmmm 1 sec

That code doesn't follow the guides breakdown 🤔

[zenith palm]

Try just change frequency to 2666mhz without changing from xmp timings and see if it boots

Then if it boots download test mem5 and run the extreme anta config @olive onyx

https://www.overclock.net/threads/memory-testing-with-testmem5-tm5-with-custom-configs.1751608/

[olive onyx]

Ok

[dull ginkgo]

Btw hyperx isn't one of the brands that does tell you the die on the sticker

[zenith palm]

Hyperx is owned by kingston tho

Start of the sticker is the same

[dull ginkgo]

Pretty sure Kingston doesn't either

[dull ginkgo]

Overclocking wiki just gives up on Kingston and just says what Kingston kits can be lol

[zenith palm]

Ohh right lol

[modern walrus]

I think I need to start from square one here. When you're doing PBO, is the first step to have all offset magnitudes at 0 then start at like 120/120/whatever (EDC & TDC should be limited by their own numbers, not PPT) & increase TDC/EDC by 10 amps respectively until benchmarking (CB R23 or the like) causes your temps to reach 80-85 or something then do magnitude offsets?

because what I've noticed (having done offsets before messing with TDC/EDC like a clown) is when you increase TDC/EDC there is only a marginal increase in core performance but an accompanying increase in voltage & heat

i.e. increasing TDC/EDC by only 1 or 2 amps will result in like 33mHz increase on core performance but will bump voltage under load form like 1.263 to 1.281

also what at which step in the process should increasing PBO max take place? Should I start at +200, +100, or +0?

[modern walrus]

with 120 for both EDC & TDC at +200 mhz, PBO keeps voltage between 1.281-1.300 under load. Max temp 78.5. That seems too high

the voltage I mean

should I even care what CB says for voltage? Prime95 keeps it at even 1.114 lol

maybe I'll just put motherboard & stop messing with these

motherboard limits give you tdc 120 edc 190. Voltage is the same, hovering around 1.281-1.300 (I guess PBO keeps load voltage less than or equal to 1.300 always) but the resulting effective clocks are way worse 120/190 than 120/120

4,376 v. 4,46x

Why? I have no clue whatsoever

[clever epoch]

First thing should be to determine power limit. Then TDC, then EDC, then curve optimizer, then boost frequency

If PBO is running 1.3V for R23, but properly drops it to <1.2V for P95, you should be fine

[modern walrus]

How do I determine power limit?

put no limits & see where it gets hot right?

i.e. >90?

[clever epoch]

Yeah, increase limits to high levels and run prime95. See how much wattage the processor pulls when it throttles. Then you set your PPT like 10 watts below that

[steel zephyr]

With my potato of a PC, I managed to get 7th place on the 3DMark Port Royal Hall of Fame earlier tonight. https://www.3dmark.com/pr/1139564

I also got 1st place in a couple categories on HWBOT. 1st place the 32B GPU Pi rankings https://hwbot.org/benchmark/gpupi_-_32b/rankings?hardwareTypeId=videocard_3311&cores=2#start=0#interval=20

1st place in the GPU Pi 3.3 1B rankings https://hwbot.org/benchmark/gpupi_v3.3_-_1b/rankings?hardwareTypeId=videocard_3311&cores=2#start=0#interval=20

[modern walrus]

wow that's impressive

[zenith palm]

Nice

[sterile flame]

so i oc succesefully with ryzen master but for sum reason my ram went down in frequency

like to base

which no bueno for ryzen cpu.... any help

[zenith palm]

@sterile flame just use the bios, doing overclocking in windows through software is finicky

[sterile flame]

oh alr

[broken frost]

very potato...

[brave shell]

any advice, everytime i try to get my ram to its 3600 speed it bricks my computer with my 5900x

[zenith palm]

what ram is it and are you just setting it to 3600 or are you changing voltage timings etc

[brave shell]

setting it to 3600 and it’s gskill 2x 16 gb ram kits 3600 speed cl16 @zenith palm

[zenith palm]

you just need to enable xmp instead

[brave shell]

i did, it’s works at 3200 not 3600

@zenith palm

it is a 3600 kit

[zenith palm]

See if there's an xmp profile 2, otherwise you bought the wrong kit lol

[brave shell]

i did not buy the wrong kit, it literally says on box,

it just won’t overclock to 3600 lol

[zenith palm]

then there will be a 2nd xmp profile, 1 or 2, whichever its on change to the other, it will overclock to 3600 it just wont with jdec timings and voltages, xmp does that auto for you

[brave shell]

can i send pic

[zenith palm]

yes

[brave shell]

highest i’ve got with it rebooting

[zenith palm]

do profile 2

dont touch anything else

just enable profile 2 xmp

[brave shell]

understood profile two at 3600

[zenith palm]

yep

[left blade]

Kmars180#1811 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[brave shell]

thank you, i’ve been messing around all day trying to get it unstuck at 3600 kept having to reset that ram battery thingy

[zenith palm]

np lol

if that doesnt work, clear cmos again (battery thing) then just do xmp, nothing else

[brave shell]

okay yep and do you happen to know how to change the color of skill memory lol

g. skill

[zenith palm]

ehh that should also be in the rgb section of your bios i think? idk i dont touch rgb with a 10 foot floor because it can be a pain lol

[dark ferry]

Either download the Gskill desktop app to control the RGB or it's also compatible with several other lighting apps from other brands so that you can sync the lighting.

[brave shell]

i tried with msi and it won’t seem to work

[dull ginkgo]

Mystic lights worked with my Trident z neo last I tried

[modern walrus]

the g.skill app & mystic light do not get along in my experience. I ended up with half the lights out on one stick

with MSI z490 Gaming Carbon Wifi

[mint mountain]

It kinda works but not well

[mint mountain]

Yeah I had the same type of thing happen. I ended up being able to make so that msi never controls it

[modern walrus]

I went the opposite route and made sure only MSI controls it

Mystic light isn't half bad. I kinda miss it compared to Armourycrate. Aorus has decent RGB tho

Anyone with a 5900x actually get PBO to do all core over 46?

[mint mountain]

I don’t want mystic light running or gskill so I just let it run default effect with no program

[modern walrus]

The like moving rainbow?

[dark ferry]

Not exactly. Default starts out as moving rainbow but eventually they all go out of sync. Almost seems on purpose. Ends up looking like colored rain dripping down glass.

Personally I use the gskill app and rgb fusion with no issue.

Because unfortunately rgb fusion doesn't have an option for the rainbow effect, only default.

[short blade]

do any timings scale with vddp/vddg/vsoc specifically? if so which?

[lavish tundra]

@finite frigate Im 15th on RX570 leaderboards

[zenith palm]

Nice

[lavish tundra]

technically 19th but first 4 cheated

[faint tangle]

How so?

[clever epoch]

Probably using "multi-gpu" setup where they used the more powerful GPU to run the benchmark but submitted as the weaker one

[zenith palm]

Yep

[lavish tundra]

Exactly

Use a 2080ti and an rx570 in the same rig and get a 10k score on an rx570

[rigid trellis]

How hard is it to overclock the 3060ti?

[zenith palm]

Not at all, msi afterburner, power slider all the way to the right, increase clock in 25s, test using 3d mark demo on steam(timespy) until it crashes, then dial back, then do mem in 15mhz increments until crash then dial back 15mhz, but start off with +100 core and +850 mem and start from there

[finite frigate]

Imo for nvidia cards do mem in plus 50

remember they report effective not actual clock

[zenith palm]

For 30 series it goes up in +5s for mem so +15 is fine

[finite frigate]

But 15mhz is like 3mhz effective

[zenith palm]

Wait what

[finite frigate]

Divide by 4 and that’s effective clock

*actual

[zenith palm]

What's the point in that lol

[finite frigate]

Marketing

So they can say like 6400mhz memory and stuff

[zenith palm]

Ughhh

[finite frigate]

+100 is only 25mhz so

[zenith palm]

Sad

[sudden torrent]

QDR memory is the reason, instead of DDR which advertises the same way. That "4000 MHz" stick of memory is actually 2000 MHz.

[zenith palm]

Then why is still called gddrx then lol

Wacky

[tall pelican]

X is just micron's trademark

[sudden torrent]

No idea why, but it's QDR. It has been since GDDR5.

[zenith palm]

Ohh i just meant x as a placeholder number not as in g6x that was a bit confusing on my part tbf

[zenith palm]

I had no idea lol nice thanks for the info

[clever epoch]

Branding probably. It would be strange/confusing to normies if it went from GDDR4 to QDR.
Bigger number better

[zenith palm]

True true

[wheat lintel]

Is it better to OC amd gpus is the Radeon software or afterburner?

[tall pelican]

depends on the gpu

[sudden torrent]

If you don't mess with voltage afterburner is fine usually

[tall pelican]

afterburner doesnt know how to work with rdna2

min/max slider doesnt exist in AB

[wheat lintel]

It’s a 6800xt

I know afterburner fairly well since that’s what I used with Nvidia cards but I’m not sure with AMD

[lavish tundra]

Radeon software for most amd cards

[wheat lintel]

Ahh ok thanks

Could you help me out with it tomorrow if you have a chance?

[lavish tundra]

Yep i can

[short blade]

biggest problem with radeon software is that sometimes it just decides to not load your desired core voltages

[orchid flame]

*G5X

Not G5 iirc

[orchid flame]

GDDR5X was literally a JEDEC spec

Oh yeah

DDR6 is getting WCK :)))))))

So now all the pieces of garbage who talk about 1t can run 1t at 8:1 WCK:CK

[zenith palm]

What is wck?

[orchid flame]

Write clock

[zenith palm]

As in just the rate it writes at i assume?

[orchid flame]

No

It’s the rate at which PHY to Module is sent

So the ram can be operating at CK 1600mhz for example

And use that for all of its command logic

But the clock used to generate data will be at a different ratio

In 4:1 WCK:CK, ram could be at 1600mhz with WCK 6400mhz
And thus get 12.8Gbps

Of course the command logic would be worse so you’d get nowhere near that

But you could run much much higher frequencies

This change would allow logic to stop being the issue with high clocking memory by offloading logic to the slower CK

All this means is that your “1t” at 4:1 DDR6-12800 is only at CK 1600mhx

So effectively 4T if it was a true 6400mhz CK

[zenith palm]

Ohh thanks

[wheat lintel]

@lavish tundra Could you help me out with this? Im not too sure about OCing in radeon software

Hell im not that well versed in gpu OCIng in the first place

[lavish tundra]

Gimme 15?

Having dinner rn

[wheat lintel]

Yeah definitely

thanks

[tall pelican]

Find max clock that's stable, set min to 100 below it, check if that's stable, lower min if unstable

Raise power limit to as much as you can cool

Set mem to fast timings, raise clock until performance regressions or 2150

[lavish tundra]

why 2150?

[tall pelican]

Because that's the max you can set for memory clock?

[lavish tundra]

but yeah @wheat lintel fitz is more knowledgeable than I am and what he said is what I recommend as well.

[lavish tundra]

on gddr6?

or all

[tall pelican]

On rdna2

[lavish tundra]

Oh I see

[wheat lintel]

Are there any downsides to setting it to 2150?

Also what intervals should i do for finding a max clock thats stable?

[lavish tundra]

50

[wheat lintel]

and what should i use to test if the gpu is stable?

3dmark?

[lavish tundra]

I use heaven benchmark

allows you to edit on the fly

[wheat lintel]

ahh ok ill just use superposition then since i have it installed

[lavish tundra]

I still recommend heaven tbh

[wheat lintel]

whats the difference?

[lavish tundra]

I know for a fact heaven stresses mem and core

IDK about superposition

[wheat lintel]

Do I need to run heaven for the full time?

[lavish tundra]

yes

[wheat lintel]

What would be considered a good OC for a 6800xt?

[clever epoch]

running into the clock limit 😛

[wheat lintel]

I’m getting about 2.6 Ghz

[short blade]

MPT it and crank 3ghz

[wheat lintel]

MPT?

[clever epoch]

more power tool

I don't think 6800XT clock limit can be bypassed with MPT

[tall pelican]

no clock limit can be bypassed

[orchid flame]

Pfffft

Imagine not going higher

Smh my head

[tall pelican]

imagine being limited to 2ghz core clocks, with smol $

[wheat lintel]

How would I go about getting even higher than 2.6 Ghz on my 6800xt? Rn that’s the highest I can get

And how would I use MPT?

Is it a program I download or what

[tall pelican]

MorePowerTool, it lets you remove the power limit if you can cool it

if you're getting 2.6 set in drivers, that's the max you'll get

if under load, you have like 2.7 set and you're only at 2.6, then MPT will help

[wheat lintel]

I have 2.6 max set and that’s as high as it will go

[tall pelican]

then that's your max

[wheat lintel]

So should I give MPT a shot?

And will a 750watt PSU be fine for the 6800xt and 3700x?

[tall pelican]

if you're air cooling, it'll be fine

[faint tangle]

Yep

[wheat lintel]

Yeah the 6800xt is air cooled

[clever epoch]

I thought 6800XT limit was 2.8?

[tall pelican]

Im understanding it at 2.6 is max stable

[clever epoch]

ah, ye

[modern walrus]

How does one overclock a monitor?

[faint tangle]

You have a nvidia gpu by chance?

If so nvidia control panel I belive its called

[wheat lintel]

What’s the current hz on it?

[wheat lintel]

Y’all proud of me?

[proven canopy]

Is that in leaderboard mode

[wheat lintel]

Wdym

That’s 3dmark timespy

Well the results from it

[wheat lintel]

It’s on score explorer

Nvm it was on leaderboard

Wait nvm when it’s on leaderboard I’m 10th

[proven canopy]

Yeah, always use leaderboard mode

[wheat lintel]

I’ll definitely keep that noted

I like 10th over 47th haha

[proven canopy]

Should bench the card in firestrike/extreme and see how you score

[wheat lintel]

Yeah I will once I get around to buying them

Does fire strike take into account cpu?

[proven canopy]

It does yeah, but big navi dominates FS in general

https://hwbot.org/submission/4675118_fitvelkiz_3dmark___fire_strike_radeon_rx_6900_xt_45478_marks

[tall pelican]

its also super cpu bound until 4k firestrike

5800x + reve is faster than 10900kf + bdie too

[wheat lintel]

Ooh I like that lol

I noticed time spy is also really cpu bound. When I ran it for the first time with the gpu OCed to 2.6 Ghz and 2150 mem with the cpu stock it only got a score of like 14k

I brought up the cpu from stock to 4.4 gHz and it brought it to 17k

[tall pelican]

yeah, not even just that

gpu score is down ~5k points on the 10900kf

[wheat lintel]

How do I submit this result to hwbot?

Like I see the button on the website page of the result but clicking it just reloads the page

My hwbot account is linked

[tall pelican]

are you logged into hwbot?

[wheat lintel]

Yep I am

[sudden torrent]

Create a custom resolution profile in nvidia/amd software

[zenith palm]

Wait why is there such a difference in the bottom of leaderboard vs score explorer

[wheat lintel]

One guy has like 30 different results in the top 50

[zenith palm]

I see

[prisma arch]

undervolt 5800x
before i updated my bios i got 4.625 ghz@1.25 volts

[sudden torrent]

I have a small negative offset on my voltage, it helps

[clever epoch]

Did you set the same LLC settings?

[storm wedge]

am intrested on getting higher refresh rates on my screen ,is possible to overclock my laptop's display

[barren ridge]

yes

quite easy actually, just depends on luck

[short blade]

overclocking display is only worth if you're at 60-75hz

[modern walrus]

you guys know everything

[modern walrus]

I am at 60hz on a 43" display

[short blade]

😳

see if you can oc to 75hz

I have a 14 year old 60hz monitor that can oc to 75hz

[sudden torrent]

Not everything, but definitely more than average
https://www.pcgamer.com/how-to-overclock-your-60hz-monitor-and-gain-a-gaming-edge/

[modern walrus]

What are the odds this works with TVs

I'm technically using a commercial display as a monitor

[sudden torrent]

The same as monitors, just different features

[modern walrus]

it's 4K, 43", & was only like $300 refurbished

& it's a samsung

so it's not junk

yo I might always buy commercial displays. If you get them new they're more expensive than TVs but they come with 10 year warranties & are designed for 24/7 operation

"4k panels least likely to play ball." heck

well bottoms up

[sudden torrent]

Yeah TVs make for decent displays but they're mostly 60hz, 120hz if you get really good ones. 4k120 isn't really mainstream yet in TVs since they're more aimed at consoles.

[modern walrus]

a 4K 120hz monitor is crazy expensive

like a 22" for $400

& when they're that small that super high resolution is kinda useless

It's like getting a 4K 32" TV

[sudden torrent]

That's not much more than 1440 high refresh price

[modern walrus]

ya but 1440 you'd probably get like a 27 at that price

my screen isn't playing ball

isn't 4k gaming mostly 60fps anyway?

I'd rather have 4k at 60 than 1080 at 75

assuming it would even work anyway

ah heck let's give it a try

[sudden torrent]

Some panels just won't like it

[modern walrus]

ya no go on that too

I haven't CODed since like '08 so I don't really need high refresh

I do kinda regret not getting a 3080 but they're impossible anyway

& expensive

[sudden torrent]

I updated the bios on my board to support agesa 1.2.0.2 and now it looks like not only am I stable at 1933 fclk but I'm also able to tighten my primary timings more. Still testing but I'm down to 14-15-11-12-30. I'll post up my final results later but this is looking pretty sweet so I had to share.

[short blade]

did you actually test that it offers more performance than 1900

I'm on agesa 1.2.0.3 b and 1900 fclk performs better than 1933 for me

[sudden torrent]

I'll get to that, I'm still working on the overclock. I can't just copy my old settings on this board, it fails to boot.

As it is it's an improvement from before. No more whea at 1933. 1966 is still bad though.

[sterile flame]

how oc r5 3600

[zenith palm]

Enable precision boost overdrive (pbo) in the bios is your best bet and pretty easy too

[storm wedge]

can i safely overcloak a laptop?

[zenith palm]

Most laptops wont even overclock, a handful of gaming laptops will let you overclock tho so it depends

[lavish tundra]

undervolt a laptop

dont overclock

[storm wedge]

ok

lol

[short blade]

it depends on the laptop

I'm overclocking the crap out of mine

[faint tangle]

I'm testing +300 on core rn

Prolly high to start ofd

But I've gone up by a bit more before before I knew much about ocing

Aaaaand timespy crashed

Well then

Guess I'll start slowly at +50

even +50 on thwe core made timespy crash

after a while but it did

[zenith palm]

send a pic of afterburner?

[faint tangle]

im playing mc now i closed both

i can show you what i had the settings at if you want

[dull ginkgo]

up the power limit to max, might as well

[faint tangle]

power limit wasnt the issue idt

otherwise my pc woulda shut off

750w psu so not the issue either

[dull ginkgo]

wat

[dull ginkgo]

power limit is just how much the GPU chooses to pull

[faint tangle]

yeah ik

[dull ginkgo]

it's not like over power protection

[faint tangle]

i mean its not the reason it crashed

[dull ginkgo]

it might just need a bit more power

Not enough power to maintain the clock can still cause it to crash

doesn't hurt to up the pl

[faint tangle]

alr ill try it later

[faint tangle]

Trying it now

So I found out where it crashes

It goes through the whole thing fine

But instead of showing the results it just closes

So it didn't crash earlier that happened ^^

Should I Uninstall reinstall?

@dull ginkgo

[zenith palm]

pull the power limit in afterburner all the way to the right

[zenith palm]

try repair the game in steam if you think something is wrong but what are you left with after it crashes?

[faint tangle]

Nothing comes up

I reinstalled and running it with 50 on core mow

Now*

[zenith palm]

okay

[faint tangle]

And 104 on power limit

Which is as far as it goes

[zenith palm]

was the game corrupted when downloaded or?

[twilit yoke]

would yall say OCing a 5900x would be worth it? im not sure. it would have a 360mm rad backing it up yet, either EK AIO or Lian Lia Galahad.

[faint tangle]

Shouldn't have been but idk

[twilit yoke]

cause i feel like it would just run the 5900x very hard it it would die in like 3 years

[faint tangle]

Didn't crash this time

12030 for graphics

With 50 on core and 104 on power

So go up to 100 now?

[zenith palm]

Traditional ocing on ryzen is pointless but using curve optimizer and pbo is the way to go and will be handled nicely by a 360 ek or Galahad

[zenith palm]

Try 100, if not try 75

[twilit yoke]

what makes it pointless?

[zenith palm]

Pbo is just god tier

[faint tangle]

Half way through it at 100

[twilit yoke]

what is pbo? i dont know about OCing overall really.

[zenith palm]

Pbo just performs better than a manual oc

[dull ginkgo]

It's not really pointless, it's just hard to do better than pbo

[zenith palm]

It's precision boost overdrive

[dull ginkgo]

Unless you know what you're doing, pbo will get you better results

[zenith palm]

Okay well yeah it takes a pretty good overclock to beat pbo

[twilit yoke]

whats the difference?

[dull ginkgo]

Pbo boosts for you

Manual is manually setting clocks and voltages

[twilit yoke]

so pbo is automatic ocing pretting much

[faint tangle]

12158 with 100

To 150 now?

[zenith palm]

Yeah kinda but you can tweak it to make it boost better too

[zenith palm]

Yep

[faint tangle]

Kk

[twilit yoke]

ah

[faint tangle]

Already nearly at average 3070

350 below ~

[faint tangle]

So if I can go up to like 300 on my core, is that considered a good bin?

And in the future for when I oc, should i do it slowly like I am now or can I go up to around what the max I get is?

12360

[zenith palm]

I don't have one, but 3070s don't seem to go above 150 stabile so idk

[faint tangle]

Testing it at 200 now

[zenith palm]

Good luck

[faint tangle]

Doesn't seem to be any artifacting so far or anything

[faint tangle]

Seems like 150 will be my limit

Error occurred

Still pretty close to a 3070

[zenith palm]

You can try 175

@faint tangle oc the mem too

[faint tangle]

Oh I didn't know mem affected this

[zenith palm]

A good amount yes

[faint tangle]

Oh cool

What's a good number to start on the mem?

I'm guessing it's different from mining lol

[zenith palm]

I'd try 900 and start from there

[faint tangle]

Kk

[zenith palm]

Increments of 50 until crash then you can drop 25 see if it's stable

[faint tangle]

Cool thanks

[zenith palm]

Np

[faint tangle]

I'll leave core at 150, just bc it'll be my card for around 3 years at least

I'd rather keep it under its limit

Prolly won't oc till I play games that need it to run ultra settings

Just curious

[zenith palm]

It's fine to daily 25 under crash tbh but fair enough

[zenith palm]

Why would you want worse performance? Ocing your gpu is very hard to make it harmful for your gpu

[faint tangle]

I thought longterm it'll lower life span?

[zenith palm]

Nah

[faint tangle]

I'm new to overclocking tbf

Cool

[zenith palm]

Technically it can degrade if you mess with voltages etc

But it wont like die

[faint tangle]

Oh I'm stupid

I forgot to up power limit again

[zenith palm]

Save it to a profile

[faint tangle]

Just did but I'll have to run it again

It closed once I tabbed out

[zenith palm]

Weird?

Are you sure you hit apply

[faint tangle]

Yeah

No I mean time spy closed

The test anyways

App stayed open

[zenith palm]

Ahh

[faint tangle]

Was gonna have to run again anyways with the higher power limit

[zenith palm]

Yeah you can't alt tab

Once you open timespy test take your hands away from the keyboard lol

[faint tangle]

Yeah i haven't even been at my pc for most of them lol

Just came back to up power limit

Oh btwv

My card came from a pre build

Can I still register the warranty on it?

[zenith palm]

I dont see why not

[faint tangle]

12613 with 900 on mem

Oh btw

Should i turn fans up?

[zenith palm]

What's your fan curve?

[zenith palm]

Keep upping 50 til crash then

[faint tangle]

I went to 1000 which was fine, also I just put it to 80 to be safe before that run

Got 12706

Gonna by by 50 for the rest

[zenith palm]

Just use your fan curve/set your own if the stock one is bleh

[faint tangle]

I set it to 100 since core was getting up to 66

Also 12687 so it's officially passed the average 3070 with 150 core, 104 power limit, 1050 mem

[zenith palm]

66 is perfectly fine temp wise, anything under 80c is a okay

[faint tangle]

I thought the vram Temps would be too high?

[zenith palm]

Nah you're fine that's only if you would be mining at that temp because it only uses vram and hardly used gpu core

[faint tangle]

Oh cool

Thanks

[zenith palm]

Np

[faint tangle]

Error at 1150

Still, thats above the average 3070

Pog

[zenith palm]

Try 1100 then

[faint tangle]

Wait I thought I did oops

12758 ima go back to 1150 now and see what happens

Yeah error. 1100 is the max

Still, that's a decent bit over the average 3070

And 1754 over the average 3060 ti

[glacial jewel]

Uhh this is my friends MacBook

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/855560951721754624/870119130240536656/image0.jpg

What should he do

[faint tangle]

This is why I don't use mac

[zenith palm]

Idk if I'd say decent but not over average 3070, about 13000-13500 is avg 3070 but close yeah

[zenith palm]

Looks fine to me, what's the issue?

[faint tangle]

With the link you gave me I was like 40 over the average 3070

[zenith palm]

Make sure you have the drop-down on the side set as graphics only and not overall score

[faint tangle]

Ohhh

Kk

[short blade]

my 3070 gets 15330 lol

3070M laptop gets 11776

[faint tangle]

oced or base?

[short blade]

oced

both of my 3070s were able to hit over 15k though

https://www.3dmark.com/compare/spy/19990031/spy/19533705

[faint tangle]

i meant the base 3070 and i was also looking at the wrong thing lol

[short blade]

you're approaching it but wouldn't say beating it

[faint tangle]

yeah ik

[short blade]

my laptop approaches stock desktop 3060ti

[faint tangle]

i was looking at overall score not gpu

[short blade]

fair

[faint tangle]

average 3060 ti not oc is 11004

[short blade]

overall score is quite useless

[faint tangle]

yeah pato corrected me

[short blade]

can inflate scores with better cpu

[faint tangle]

i didnt realize i had to change it

[short blade]

looks like my 3070 would be 54th place

[faint tangle]

wow

[short blade]

however i'm disqualified from the 3070 leaderboard

cause it's just showing my 3080 as my entry instead

[faint tangle]

rip

[short blade]

my 3080 is hot garbage so i have no hopes for that

oh yeah it's bad lmao

[faint tangle]

do you think better cooling will increase performance for timespy?

wait no

[short blade]

if you want to up your time spy score then manual oc your ram

[faint tangle]

i meant to say increase overclocking capabilities?

vram you mean?

i did

[short blade]

no

system ram

[faint tangle]

ah

idt i can

[short blade]

my 3070 got 12314 with 2666c12 ram and 15330 with 3733c14 ram

[faint tangle]

i have 3600mhz cl18

so idt i can oc that much

[short blade]

subtimings help

[faint tangle]

meaning?

[short blade]

there are more timings than cl

[faint tangle]

ah

i believe 16 17 17 18

[short blade]

no

more than that

[faint tangle]

how do i check?

[faint tangle]

idk if this helps

[short blade]

zentimings

3600 18-20-20-40 sounds like a bad bin

but even a bad bin benefits from tightening subtimings

[faint tangle]

its hp ram lol

[short blade]

you might be able to get 3733-3800 on the same primary timings as well

by upping vdimm

but

i wouldn't do that until you figure out which IC it is

since some of the worst ICs scale negatively and/or degrade above 1.35v

[faint tangle]

was either this or 3000mhz oloy i believe cl18

ima be honest

i have no clue what any of that means

other than the degrading part and voltage

[short blade]

thaiphoon burner has a decent chance of telling you what the IC is

it tells me that this kit is micron rev. e

which i already knew cause this kit is always micron rev. e

maybe yours will be hynix afr or samsung c-die

anyways ram oc is more trouble than it's worth for most people

[faint tangle]

ill download it in a moment

[short blade]

but if you really want to increase that timespy score it can help

though of course it helps general gaming performance too

if it didn't i wouldn't have spent like 3 weeks doing it

i can never go back to xmp

[faint tangle]

how much would it decrease the life span of the ram do you think?

[short blade]

same as any other overclocking

0 if you do it right

[faint tangle]

alr ty

[short blade]

don't pump 1.8v into it

[faint tangle]

alr 2v got it

[short blade]

safe voltage depends on which IC

i daily 1.524v on rev. e but can go up to 1.6v safely

higher voltages not always better

[faint tangle]

ik just joking lol

[short blade]

usually for people pushing higher voltages they will strap on a fan on top of their ram

not going to apply to you though

[faint tangle]

yeah i might just leave it for now

[short blade]

3600c18 bin kit

if it's not one of the kits that starts to scale negatively after 1.35v

it probably won't gain any further benefit going beyond 1.45v

[faint tangle]

idk i got it for 40$ off reddit lmao

[short blade]

i spent 85 on mine

[faint tangle]

a guy was doing a clearance

also got an asrock b550m ac/itx for 40$ from him

[short blade]

nice

i did a lot of r/hws dealhunting for my new build too

[faint tangle]

thats where i got mine

skytech screwed me

my 1200$ pre build went to over 1800 from just tryna replace mobo

psu wasnt what it was supposed to be

case was made to only fit that mobo

[prisma arch]

perhaps
i am at 4.8ghz all core tho

[zenith palm]

Use hwinfo 64 to read the clocks

[prisma arch]

how are you still awake

[zenith palm]

?

It's 00:30 for me lol

Not that late

[prisma arch]

uhh very late

you have been online for like 12 hours

[zenith palm]

Not the whole 12 hours lmao

hey @zenith palm ik you said amd oc is trash but is 1.3000 voltage fine overide mode?

4.2ghz

[zenith palm]

Well not trash but usually pbo is better, iirc only up to 1.25v is safe on Ryzen but ask someone else on that i could be wrong

[sterile flame]

alr

@nocturne sailyone lol

oh sorry

to an

whoever that is

also one more thing @zenith palm when I put in the core voltage it says 1.2250

not 1.225

thats fine right

[dull ginkgo]

it's the same thing

also keep in mind vdroop and such, software will report slightly different voltage

[modern walrus]

Any idea why my CB score would drop from just north of 17k to just over 15k? Cores degrading already? lol 10900K btw

VROUT is >1.35v tho

btw how do you determine core preference on 10900Ks? like AMD tells you which is best-worst

[clever epoch]

Degradation would cause you to become unstable at voltage/freq, wouldn't degrade your score (with static clocks)

Best guess: tasks running on your OS. I get a bit of a bump in cinebench if I run in safe mode, or on a fresh OS, compared to my daily OS (where I have games, discord, launchers, etc. running)

[modern walrus]

ah okay thanks

I was thinking of attempting per core offset on 10900K to see if I can squeeze a little more out of it. Does Intel tell you which core is best to worst like AMD does?

rn I'm running single-core CB 23 to see which cores the system assigns (assuming it would choose best ones)

[south sky]

1.35? that's insane

[south sky]

per core sucks

[modern walrus]

wait jk 1.305

[south sky]

still pretty high but eh

The cores only have one clock gen, so they all have to clock at the same speed

So per core is just per core boost

[modern walrus]

ya? on 10900K?

[south sky]

if you set lets say 4 cores to 5.2ghz and the rest to 5.1ghz, those cores will go to 5.2ghz when the other 4 are disabled

Which the intel scheduler is useless at

[modern walrus]

ohh so it's not possible to run different ratios on different core simultaneously?

[south sky]

it's not

[modern walrus]

ah okay

or do per core voltage offsets like Curve optimizer?

[south sky]

not a thing

[modern walrus]

If I only set voltage, it won't just apply constant voltage & each processor will clock accordingly... how does it do single core then? lol

oh wait I think I get it. I can set like 53 if only 2 in use; 52 if 4; etc

I changed core ratio to auto, set voltage to constant, & changed max to 53 so I let the voltage dictate the max ratio

well in theory who knows

[south sky]

what do you mean?

[modern walrus]

Like it'll automatically set the highest clock possible at that voltage

[modern walrus]

is that a thing? lol

[short blade]

so after ocing ram, on boot the pc recognizes usb devices, then when windows starts it drops all usb devices for a couple seconds and i get like 30 wheas, then usb devices reconnect and everything is normal after that

ram oc is completely stable and there are no performance issues

any way i can make the first thing go away

no wheas after the initial burst at log in

[sterile flame]

Im on 4.4ghz

I ran multicore and single core

max temps are shown above

do yall think I can go higher?

[modern walrus]

Use PBO

PBO with Curve Optimizer gets you the best outcome on those Ryzens

Let PBO decide voltage

I was only able to get 4.6 on my 5900x but other claim they can do 5.0 all core

but PBO gives you the best of both worlds because it'll boost your single-core & multi-core

[lavish tundra]

Cinebench stable isnt stable

You can pass cinebench and get a score and crash while launching a game

[sterile flame]

lmao

[lavish tundra]

Cinebench for oc stress testing is garbage

[sterile flame]

temps were really low though

[lavish tundra]

Doesnt matter

[sterile flame]

so prime 95

...

[lavish tundra]

Small ffts

Not smallest

[sterile flame]

kk

[modern walrus]

get HWiNFO so you can see which are the best cores then do curve optimizer

[sterile flame]

wats curve optimizer

[modern walrus]

AMD's overclocking

You can either get Ryzen Master (which I personally do not like at all & is very very hard to uninstall) or in BIOS (for me) under Advanced there are three options that say AMD. I forget the names I know the top one is like PBS or something

hold on let me restart & I'll tell you

well frist, which board do you have?

First change the OC settings you put in back to Auto (leave XMP) then go to Advanced>AMD Overclocking>Accept>Precision Boost Overdrivechange Precision Boost Overdrive to Advanced>

PBO limits you can mess with if you want. They affect thermals but for now it's easier to just put motherboard

then go to Curve Optimizer and change all the offsets to negative then on your best 2 cores put like -20, then -15 for the next 2 best then -10 for your worst 2 cores

some people like to do the Max CPU boost clock override after they mess with offsets but I'd at least start with 100mHz

[sterile flame]

uhhh
