#

I couldn’t see it

#

To disable

#

4 on those right

modern walrus
#

yes

cedar cypress
#

Kk

#

I did the 16 for the other

modern walrus
#

eh you wanna disable power down

#

it's towards the bottom

cedar cypress
#

Ok I will

modern walrus
#

tPPD

cedar cypress
#

What does it do

#

Windows felt a lot more smooth

#

With the timings lowered

#

Starting testing now

#

Ideally what are we aiming forV

#

4400 cl17?

modern walrus
#

4400c16-16-16-36 would be good

#

4400c16-17-17-37 would be slightly less good

#

4400c15-16-16-36 is likely impossible under 1.6v DRAM

cedar cypress
#

You think that’s possible for@me 16 16 36?

modern walrus
#

4400c17-17-17-37 is probably fairly easy

cedar cypress
#

Oh wait yeah cuz I’m 1.4

#

At my 4000 16 16 36

modern walrus
#

flat 16s is almost certainly doable but the question is whether it's doable without a fan

cedar cypress
#

Ahhhh I see

#

Failed test

#

4min 7 errors

#

But I didn’t have power down mod disabled

modern walrus
#

at 4400c16?

cedar cypress
#

Would that cause issues

#

No

#

With the timings

#

U said

#

4 4

modern walrus
#

just tRRD & tFAW?

cedar cypress
#

Yeah

modern walrus
#

try tRRD_L at 6

cedar cypress
#

I just did power down mode off

modern walrus
#

& leave the others

cedar cypress
#

Would that affect anything

#

And ok I’ll try that

modern walrus
#

not noticeably

#

benchmarks maybe a little

cedar cypress
#

Power down mode off only

#

No errors so far

#

Haven’t gone into bios yet

#

To change to 6

#

just got an error

#

going to try 6

modern walrus
#

alright

cedar cypress
#

I’m excited to try the cpu oc on this board too 5.1 or 5.2 like u said my board could’ve been bad

#

Wait

#

Was I supposed to have voltages set

#

Io sa

#

To 1.3???

modern walrus
#

are they not set at all? lol

cedar cypress
#

No

#

Lol

modern walrus
#

try 1.28/1.28

#

well nvm

#

just do 1.3/1.3

#

but yes, they were supposed to be set

cedar cypress
#

That will help errors?

#

I got 1 error after 15min

#

Going to set it now

modern walrus
#

ya you can definitely get errors from those cuz auto will likely put them too low

cedar cypress
#

Oh wow

#

Should I set it back to 4666? Lol

#

4400 15min test 1error on the first test

modern walrus
#

well it kinda depends on whether you want higher frequency or tighter timings

#

cuz if you go up to 4666 you'll likely end up with 17s or 17-18-18-38

#

maybe even flat 18s

#

since your voltage is gonna have to be high to run tighter

#

when you got the error, did you see what the temperature was?

cedar cypress
#

What do you think? I should do

#

42 in 15min

#

On the highest heat one u said

modern walrus
#

ya that's a lot of errors

#

& that's without tuning anything either

#

which is gonna make it hotter

#

especially SCLs

cedar cypress
#

No 42 temp

#

Lol

#

1 error

#

Sorry

modern walrus
#

oh 42C isn't terrible but I think you need a little more voltage if you're getting the error

#

this is at 4/6/16 for tRDD & tFAW?

cedar cypress
#

SA IO won’t change it?

#

Yeah

#

4400

#

In bios it said 1.4 and 1.29

#

For those

#

On auto

#

I think

modern walrus
#

is 1.4 for IO or SA?

cedar cypress
#

I’m not sure but

#

I thought it was usually 1.0 tbh

#

So idk what ur said 1.4 and 1.29

#

It**

#

The top one was 1.4

#

Bottom 1.29

#

I had to head out for dinner but when I get home I’m going to continue

#

What all steps will I need to do

#

If you aren’t available

modern walrus
#

set 1.3/1.3 & test again. 1.4 is no big deal on SA but not good for IO. If you can't get it to run without errors on TM5, you can raise voltage to 1.55-1.57 for DRAM but you might want to drop to 4200 or so instead cuz if you need 1.55-1.57v to run 4400c18, you're gonna likely going to need like 1.6-1.65v to run c17 & even more voltage to run c16 & without active cooling that's very unlikely to fly

cedar cypress
#

4200 c16 then?

#

If ur doesn’t work

#

It

#

4200 16 16 16 36?

modern walrus
#

ya I was able to get 4200c15 at 1.64v with 2x16gb so you might be able to get it with 1.6 or so but c16 is probably the better choice without active cooling

cedar cypress
#

Any other timings also

modern walrus
#

bdie's achilles heel is heat

#

I'll be around but if I'm not for whatever reason, the guide is really helpful.

cedar cypress
#

Ok ok

modern walrus
#

I'll be around tho

cedar cypress
#

Thank you . (:

modern walrus
#

np

digital dirge
#

ggood never leaves.

sterile flame
#

@modern walrus another RAM OC victim

modern walrus
modern walrus
kind walrus
#

And we (I) am thankful

cedar cypress
modern walrus
cedar cypress
#

trying 4533

modern walrus
cedar cypress
#

1.3 io 1.3 sa

#

like u said

#

and lmaooo

modern walrus
#

let's see how it goes then haha

cedar cypress
#

oh wait

#

its supposed to be 4200 c16

#

lol

#

am i trying the timings?

#

16 16 16 36 4200?

#

or what timings is it supposed to be

modern walrus
#

ya that works

#

maybe try 4266 first

#

4400 for daily isn't nuts tho if you wanna try that first

cedar cypress
#

4400 16 16 36?

#

I only game on pc really

#

Usually 6hours minimum

modern walrus
#

try flat 18s-38 first

cedar cypress
#

Kk

#

10min in

#

Still good

#

18 18 18 38

#

4400

modern walrus
#

nice I mean you could let it test longer or drop to flat 17s

#

or even 16-17-17-37

cedar cypress
#

Ok I’ll wait another 10 then try that!

#

Temp 43 max

#

ahh 3 errors on number 4

#

i prob need more voltage

#

43 on that test isnt bad tho is it?

#

43temp

#

18 18 18 38

#

4400

modern walrus
#

ya more than likely a tad bit more voltage would help but 43C is getting a liiiitle hot

cedar cypress
#

4266?

#

will it get more hot

modern walrus
#

how much voltage are you running rn again?

cedar cypress
#

with my cpu oc

#

1.5

modern walrus
#

it won't as like a direct result but it'll likely be hotter inside the case because of it so indirectly ya

#

same with GPU

cedar cypress
#

true

#

so i should leave 1.5dram and lower to 4266? or i shud try 1.53 voltage

modern walrus
#

try 1.55

cedar cypress
#

kk

modern walrus
#

I think you can get away with that without active cooling but still recommend active cooling lol

cedar cypress
#

im not the most tech savy guy with building etc

#

you think it would be hard to do the fan thing

#

he was talking about

#

cuz i have an extra fan

#

laying around

modern walrus
#

well there are a few ways to do it

cedar cypress
#

What plug do I need for that? Usb?

modern walrus
#

motherboard fan header

cedar cypress
#

And if I was to try to do the fan thing do you think it would take like 30min?

modern walrus
#

eh 30 minutes sounds about right

cedar cypress
#

That’s not bad

modern walrus
#

the second one you have to attach the clips to it with four screws

#

then it just goes over the little snap in things that hold the RAM in

cedar cypress
#

The first one is easier?

modern walrus
#

the second part is true for both I believe

#

I dunno if you have to assemble the first one

#

but it is way cheaper which is good

cedar cypress
#

Yeah true

#

$60

#

But it’s just as good?

modern walrus
#

honestly I dunno how well it will work. I had decent resullts with the 2d one but I was also running 1.65v

cedar cypress
#

Don’t want it if it’s gonna mess up or something

#

What temp?

modern walrus
#

the second one has two fans

#

it was getting to 48C then crashing for me

#

trying to run 4200c15-15-15-35

#

but that was also on 2x16gb RAM

#

which tends to require more voltage than 2x8

cedar cypress
#

Ahhh ok ok I see

#

The me just doing the fan thing rn

#

It works ok?

#

So I don’t have to wait lol

#

Or no

modern walrus
#

ya you can

#

I think the simplest way is basically hang it with a zip tie

#

if you know someone with a 3D printer, they can make you one you can just connect a fan to lol

cedar cypress
#

i wish i did lmaooo that would be great... zip tie like hang it from the top of the casE?

#

and 4400 18 18 18 38 failed 1.55

#

1 error 10min

#

so i put it to 4266

modern walrus
#

lol pretty much

cedar cypress
#

18 18 18 38 1.5

#

i bet 4400 18 19 19 39 would work

#

but those timiings high

#

huh

modern walrus
#

try that & try 1.32 IO/ 1.36 SA

cedar cypress
#

Which one?

#

And what’s more important? Hz or timings

#

Like 4200 16 16 16 36

#

Or 4400 18 19 19 39

modern walrus
#

mhz

#

to a certain point tho like 3800c14-15-15-35 is better than 4000c17-18-18-38 or something

cedar cypress
#

For my cpu specifically ?

#

Or in general

modern walrus
#

usually every 1 tCL is about equal to 200mhz

#

in general but probably even more so for your CPU since it runs 1:1

#

I mean like gear 1 3600c13 v. gear 2 3800c14 isn't even close on 11th gen & up

cedar cypress
#

That’s so crazy lol

#

Like what

#

Lmao

modern walrus
#

ya the whole gear thing is wacky

#

almost as bad as FCLK on AMD

cedar cypress
#

4266 18 18 18 38 1.5drsm 1.3 io SA

#

Still solid 20min in

#

Didn’t try the higher io and SA yet tho

#

Wow I see mhz really matters

modern walrus
#

for sure

cedar cypress
#

They bring timings to 19 26 26

#

Wow

modern walrus
#

wait so you're looking good then?

cedar cypress
#

4266 worked on 18 18 38 yeah

#

30min test

modern walrus
#

sorry been discussing whether to try to delid 11th gen CPU lol

#

nice

cedar cypress
#

Hahah no worries you’re good

modern walrus
#

do you still have 4/4/16 set?

cedar cypress
#

I think u said

#

One to 6?

#

I set one of them to 6

modern walrus
#

oh ya that's right

cedar cypress
#

I can’t remember which one

#

19 26 is to high of timings?

modern walrus
#

tRRD_L 6

cedar cypress
#

Yeah

modern walrus
#

you can do those high ass timings to get high frequency really high

cedar cypress
#

Bad for gaming?

modern walrus
#

you're lucky in that your CPU handles high frequencies really well so you can go either of two routes

#

I've never done 1:1 comparison but the guide says to prefer frequency over tight timings

cedar cypress
#

Ok ok I see

#

That explains why they say best ram kit

#

Is 4800

#

Lol

#

19 26

#

So currently only thing that worked is 4266 18 18 18 38 1.5drsm 1.3 io SA

#

Currently testing 4266 16 16 16 36.

#

15min no errors

#

So it’s prob gonna work…

#

Remember we got 4800 to boot on 18 19 19 38?

#

Should we go higher timings?

#

Or stick with 4266 16 16 16 36

#

1.30 io sa

#

1.5dram

modern walrus
#

4800c17-19-19-39 is the best kit for DDR4 I think

#

"godbin" bdie

#

they have Rev E kit that's like 5100c19-26-26-46 I think

#

I can't remember if those are the primaries or not but I know it's the best Micron kit

cedar cypress
#

If I were to stay on 4266 16 16 16 36

#

What other timings would I need

modern walrus
#
cedar cypress
#

Oh hell no lol

modern walrus
#

you'd want tWR at like 10-12

cedar cypress
#

And I thought 300 was a lot

#

Hahahahahha

modern walrus
#

tCWL 14 or 16

cedar cypress
#

😂😂😂😂

modern walrus
#

tRTP 10-12

#

tRFC 276-306ish

#

tREFI maxed out 65xxx

cedar cypress
#

Assuming start lower to higher?

modern walrus
#

ya that's the best bet

#

starting with lower is how you end up clearing CMOS a lot lol

cedar cypress
#

Oh lol

#

Sheesh

#

I guess start high to low

#

If high works go low?

modern walrus
#

tWTR_S/L 4/8

#

before tWTR_S/L tho you gotta tune tWRRD_sg /dg

#

the guide pretty much tells you & the order to do them in

#

although I disagree with their approach of not doing tRFC/tREFI last or very near the end

cedar cypress
#

Which guide? I might’ve missed it

modern walrus
cedar cypress
#

So what’s the order you suggest then

#

Just give the safest timings I guess

#

That should work

modern walrus
#

well the ones that auto does the worst are the tRRD_S/L, tFAW, & tWR

#

it usually does tWRRD_sg/dg pretty bad. Those two timings are directly linked to tWTR_S/L which end up bad as a result of that lol

cedar cypress
#

Also if I have 1.35 v core 1.3 io and SA. 5.0. What should I try for 5.2?

modern walrus
#

that's really a huge difference based on silicon lottery

#

bad as in like really wasting performance bad

#

really high

cedar cypress
#

Ohhhh ok ok

modern walrus
#

sorry 10900K/KF are virtually the same but

cedar cypress
#

Ok so 5.1 more realistic attempt

modern walrus
#

that gives you an idea of what a golden sample 10900K does v. most 10900Ks

cedar cypress
#

Sheesh

#

Lol

modern walrus
#

i.e., if your 10900K can do 5.2ghz at 1.21v under load, it's top 1%

cedar cypress
#

Imagine

#

Lol

#

Dang

modern walrus
#

mine can do 5.1ghz at 1.305 under load which is trash

cedar cypress
#

That’s trash?

#

Mines 5.0 at 1.35…

#

Lol

modern walrus
#

well ya actually cuz when I say 1.305v I don't mean vCore

#

I mean VRVOUT

cedar cypress
#

Ohhh

modern walrus
#

so I need 1.415v vCore with like Turbo LLC lmao

cedar cypress
#

That’s on a 10900k?

#

And also the ram mhz is for fps?

#

Or for latency

#

Like 4266 16 16 36 vs 4533 18 19 19 39

#

FPS difference? Or feeling different latency wise

sterile flame
#

timings i.e 18-19-19-39 is for your latency

cedar cypress
#

So I’ll feel more input delay?

#

On 18 19 19

#

Vs 16 16 16

sterile flame
#

you probably wont feel it as latency is measured in nanoseconds (ns)

#

but idk as I've never tested gameplay with XMP timings

#

but in my experience dropping timings has improved my latency by 200ns based on the loose settings detailed in the memtesthelper guide

cedar cypress
#

Share you running

#

What’re

sterile flame
sterile flame
modern walrus
#

how's it going?

cedar cypress
#

16 16 16 36

#

5.2 oc

#

Kind of want to try like a 4533

#

Or is it not worth

#

Like a 19 19 19 39

modern walrus
#

4533 flat 19s is good

#

I think you might do better with 4266c16s

#

there's a formula for latency

cedar cypress
#

4266 stick to that then? It’s working good

#

What’s the formula?

modern walrus
#

latency = (tCL x 2000)/frequency

#

so (16x2000)/4266

cedar cypress
#

Ohhhh

#

I seee

#

Wtf

#

Lol

modern walrus
#

7.5ns for 4266c16

#

(18 x 2000)/4533

cedar cypress
#

So what is 3600 cl14?

modern walrus
#

7.9 for 4533c19

#

7.7

cedar cypress
#

3600 is 7.7?

modern walrus
#

3600c14 ya

#

well 7.7777 so 7.8 ish

digital dirge
#

So, 4000c16 is good?

#

Even with loose timing?

#

I haven't had a chance to tighten them.

modern walrus
#

8ns

#

it's not bad for sure

digital dirge
#

Better than 3600c16 right?

#

Ram oc confuses me.

modern walrus
#

ya 8 v. 8.89

digital dirge
#

Ok cool

cedar cypress
#

This blows my mind lol

#

It’s not possible for me to do 4000cl15?

#

Or 4266 better

modern walrus
#

they make bdie with 4000c14-15-15-35 XMP

#

actually 4000c15 & 4266c16 are same

digital dirge
#

Don't they make bdie with flat 14s?

#

I'm not home at my pc so I can't look at the list I have of all the bdie ram, but I think some are flat 14s

modern walrus
#

yes

#

3200cc14-14-14-34 pretty common

cedar cypress
#

14 15 15 35 to hard on 4000?

cedar cypress
#

Ok so you think I could do my 16 16

#

Easy

#

To 14 15

modern walrus
#

at 4266?

cedar cypress
#

Keep 4000

modern walrus
#

it's really just a function of voltage

digital dirge
#

Expensive af though.

modern walrus
digital dirge
#

Ddr4 is new to me lol

#

The last pc I had was ddr3 and that was about 10 years ago lol

modern walrus
#

I'm gonna miss DDR4

#

it's the only one I even remotely understand

digital dirge
#

Its gotta be good for a good bit longer yeah??

kind walrus
#

A little bit longer yeah, but not really for the high end kits

#

Ballistonks is disappearing now for real which makes big sadge cz_Sadge

digital dirge
kind walrus
#

I can't english LUL

#

My b

digital dirge
cedar cypress
#

Or is that worse that 4266 c16 16 16 still

cedar cypress
#

My game feels SOOO much better thank you lol.

#

Going to look into those timings on my gfs ram 4000 16 19 19

#

It feels slow etc I’ll send a couple of pics of timings and see if u know the issue

#

It passed stress testing etc so it’s confusing

#

Also 1hour of gaming my temp is 44 still 1.5dram

cedar cypress
#

On her pc trying to copy what u sent but I’m not sure for this part

#

32GBTwo sticks of 16GB ram

#

4000 16 19 19 39

#

25

cedar cypress
#

This is the oc i put on it awhile ago. It still just feels input delay or something. Similar to the default xmp setting on.

digital dirge
#

@modern walrus I guess there aren't any 3800 flat 14s.. there are 3600 flat 14s and 4000 14 15 15

#
sudden torrent
#

3800 is a really weird bin and rare to find as a XMP

#

I just took a 4133 and clocked it to 3800 manually

zenith palm
#

3800c14 is one of the best b die bins, costs a metric crap tun tho

#

Although oloy have 4000c15 sticks at a decent price sometimes so i don't see the point tbh

sudden torrent
#

Yeah it's a good kit but rare like I said. Most of the time they'll stick it to 4000+ if it's good b-die.

modern walrus
#

Is this also on an msi board?

modern walrus
#

enable rount trip latency again then send a screen shot of timings

#

ideally you want to get to the same 60/61 7/7

#

but it depends on the board

#

once you set round trip latency, boot & see what it says on asrock timings

#

if, for example, they say 74/75 12/12 you want to find the number that reduces the second group of numbers to 7.

12 - x = 7
x = 5

74-5 = 69
75-5 = 70

12-5 = 7
12-5= 7

so you'd put 69/70 7/7

#

the timing is based on tCL so higher tCL, higher numbers

#

oh okay even better

#

it seems like a pain but it helps latency

#

I've had wacky ones that ended up like 64/66 7/8

#

as long as the first group of numbers are within two of each other & the second group are within one, it's good

#

the higher the frequency, the harder it is to get 60/61 7/7 then you'd try 62/63 8/8 etc

#

slightly compared to 60/61 7/7

#

you may not see a huge difference cuz MSI boards train them well in general

#

others like Gigabyte will be nuts

#

oh wait on MSI you have to put other things in too like initial values, compensation, & some others

#

what are the four numbers?

#

oh my bad just saw this

#

I'm on my laptop in Domestic Arbitration Law class

#

okay for IO compensation put 21 for both

#

for RTL initials 69

#

IOL initials 4 for both

#

try 56/57 6/6

#

the lower the better lol

#

ya just leave 65 then

#

the initials don't matter as much anyway. I've only ever seen MSI even expose those timings

#

the RTL/IOLs matter but the initials not so much

#

IOL CHA & CHB should be 6/6

#

hers should be 58/60 7/7

#

which is kinda strange I guess but I've had that happen on my 10700KF with 2x16gb DJR

#

oh ya initials you can likely just put what auto has

#

one second

#

58/60 7/7

#

they can be two apart on RTL side

#

wait does she have 2x16 ram?

#

okay

#

it's basically already tuned if you look on the left 58/59 7/7 is fine. you could try 57/58 6/6 if you want tho

#

ya MSI is pretty good with that when Round Trip Latency is enabled

#

okay hers are pretty good already

#

but you could try 58/60 7/7

#

only worry about D1 btw with 2x16gb (dual rank)

#

coult try tWRRD_sg 34 or 32 which will drop tWTR_L to 10 or 8

#

you can change all _dd to 1 but that's just kinda aesthetic cuz without 4 DIMMs they don't do anything

#

tRTP you could try 11 or 10

#

otherwise this is pretty darn good

#

maybe tRDRD_sg/dg/dr/dd 7/4/7/1 and tWRWR_sg/dg/dr/dd to 7/4/7/1

#

oh whoa

#

missed oe

#

tCWL to 14

#

if that doesn't POST change tRDWR_sg/dg/dr/dd to 15/15/15/1

#

tCWL is tied to those tRDWR settings

#

one down the other up type thing

#

ok

#

you might notice that the "initials" are what rank 0 ends up with on dual rank so ya they're kinda unnecessary on 2x8gb anyway

#

yes. your RAM has chips (ICs) on one side of it, hers has them on both sides

#

nice

#

weird MSI will set tCWL higher than tCL but oh well

#

that tWRRD_sg can go down to drop tWTR_L

#

at 3600 you can probably drop tRFC to 276-296

#

tRFC is very susceptible to heat so maybe do 296

#

oh wait on MSI

#

there should be an option set to auto for those tertiary timings

#

change it to fixed

#

it's like directly above where you put those timings in

#

on auto it might change them despite what you write in

#

yes

#

or alternatively,

#

change tWTR_L back to auto

#

cuz when you change tWRRD_sg, it affects tWTR_L

#

so if tWTR_L is set, it won't let you lower tWRRD_sg

#

same with tWTR_S & tWRRD_dg

#

so auto for tWTR_L/S, set tWRRD_sg/dg then you can just fill in where they land

#

really you can leave them on auto if you wanted

#

those four timings can reallllly mess up stability

#

same with tWR & tRTP I've found

modern walrus
#

you can try tWR 10 or 11 but 12 might be the lowest you can go

#

tRTP same

#

looks like tRRRD_sg/dg can drop further too

#

try 28 for sg & 24 for dg

#

that should put tWTRL_S/L at 4/8

#

if you have trouble with that do 30/24 for 10/4

#

otherwise you're basically done

#

I meant for this setup

#

actually this one too lol

#

28/24 or 30/24 so 32/25 12/5 goes down to 8/4 or 10/4

okay nice nice

idle sierra
#

@modern walrus

#

yep

modern walrus
#

wanna try 4000?

idle sierra
#

hmmm

#

how much of an upgrade

#

is 3800c19 over 3200c22

modern walrus
#

3600c16 is

idle sierra
#

is it a huge difference?

modern walrus
#

8.89 latency

#

4000c19 is 9.5

#

but we haven't tried to bring down primaries yet

#

just seeing how high it'll POST

idle sierra
#

i wonder if this current OC is gonna work for games

modern walrus
#

but 3600c16 is a lot better if you run gear 1 (1:1) instead of gear 2 (1:2)

#

3600 is usually the max frequency 11th gen will run gear 1 in

idle sierra
#

are we gear 2 rn?

modern walrus
#

yes

#

anything >3600 is gonna run gear 2

#

that allows 11th gen to run really high frequencies

idle sierra
#

how much faster is this than my 3200c22?

#

like

#

30%?

modern walrus
#

not sure where exactly where they even out

#

the formula is (tCL x 2000)/frequency

#

so 22*2000/3200

#

ya your old latency is 13.75

idle sierra
#

13.75

#

yeah

#

i might try a post at 4000cl19 honestly

sudden torrent
#

It's hard to put a percentage to it because memory overclocking for gaming is more for smoothing out the 1% lows, and that's not very easy to see

modern walrus
#

ya you definitely want to avoid 3200c22 lol

idle sierra
#

if it'll post i'll keep it like that

idle sierra
#

my fps dips in csgo/valorant were crazy. id be at 400fps, then it dips to 200, then 500, etc

#

this oc should help me get a more stable fps correct?

sudden torrent
#

Yep

modern walrus
#

I'd guess you're bottlenecked at memory then

idle sierra
#

yep definitely

modern walrus
#

I think 4k should POST honestly like

#

maybe like 4400+ is where it might get more difficult

#

but you have timings pretty loose still

idle sierra
#

ah really?

#

i thought djr is known for loose timings

modern walrus
#

at 4k you can probably even lower IO2/SA

#

ya but at high frequencies

#

like it'll run 20-30-30-50 or something

#

at like 5333mhz lol

idle sierra
#

wtf

#

is 4000c19 uh

#

good

modern walrus
#

decent

sudden torrent
#

Intel right?

modern walrus
#

you might be able to drop to 4000c18 or maaaybe 17 or 16

idle sierra
#

yeah 11700kf

sudden torrent
#

Good

modern walrus
#

ya AMD we'd be having a 3800mhz party for sure

sudden torrent
#

Yeah you should still be able to do 4000 without going into gear 2 and taking a penalty

modern walrus
#

really?

sudden torrent
#

With the proper voltage tuning yeah

modern walrus
#

I couldn't get over 3600 in gear 1 with 11600K but I have a potato I think

sudden torrent
#

It's the same IMC as 12th gen

idle sierra
#

alright

modern walrus
#

even with IO2/SA at 1.5 lmao

#

but it might be my board preventing that

sudden torrent
#

Bad board could totally cause that

idle sierra
#

gonna try posting 1.5/auto/1.45/1.45 4000cl19

modern walrus
#

I tried 3600c12-13-13-33 to max out gear 1 but it didn't really do great. 4800c16 on rev E did better

idle sierra
#

wish me luck even though i might not need it

modern walrus
#

I don't think you need to raise IO2/SA for that tbh

#

it might not POST cuz too much voltage there (it's a thing lol)

idle sierra
# modern walrus why

oh i just listed the numbers you gave me off the top of my head, probably remembered wrong

#

posting

modern walrus
#

you could probably do 1.35/1.35 on IO2 & SA for 4k honestly

idle sierra
#

okay, we're in windows

#

4000cl19

modern walrus
#

I'm at 1.43/1.43 run to POST 4600c15-15-15-35 on dual rank bdie lol

#

single rank DJR is a lot easier on IMC

idle sierra
#

super happy i actually got to 4000cl19

#

huge upgrade over my 3200c22 right?

modern walrus
#

save BIOS profile real quick lol

#

13.75 v. 9.5 for sure

idle sierra
#

should i go back in and tune stuff or keep it as is?

sudden torrent
#

I'd test that it's stable for a bit first

idle sierra
#

how can i do that?

sudden torrent
#

OCCT can do a quick test that's reasonably good at finding glaring errors, but for a deeper test you want TM5

modern walrus
#

ya TM5 v good

#

lol my quick test is to see if it'll finish ycruncher 2.5b

idle sierra
#

what about aida64?

sudden torrent
#

Ehhhh

modern walrus
#

cuz that's like almost p95 processor/memory murder

sudden torrent
#

Good to bench it but not so much for stressing

modern walrus
#

ya that's also me testing to see if I can run a bench with it not daily use

#

usually to see really quick if I like drop tRTP from 12 to 10 or something

#

but ya definitely not good for daily stability by any stretch

modern walrus
idle sierra
#

ah

modern walrus
#

the top zip file has TM5 & has anta777 in it already

idle sierra
#

oh boy

modern walrus
#

you just gotta unzip then load it

idle sierra
#

what happens if i fail the test? bsod?

modern walrus
#

PCBdestroyer & absolut are really good too

#

depends how unstable it is

#

if it's really unstable then BSOD

#

if it's kinda unstable it'll have errors in the test window thing

idle sierra
#

opening testmem5

modern walrus
#

you gotta click the load config & exit cuz the stock test isn't that intense

#

oh all that crap is in there? lol

#

my bad

#

click on TestMem5

idle sierra
#

this thing bussin

modern walrus
#

lol delete that crap

#

someone sent me that & I used it

#

but if you look at the config, it's the same as the stupid stock one

idle sierra
#

LOL

modern walrus
#

I was kinda mad ngl

idle sierra
modern walrus
#

ya you can just move that rar file somewhere & unpack it there

#

& delete the rest of the crap my bad

#

didn't realize I had all my junk in a compressed folder

sudden torrent
#

For some reason anta777 fails to load on my system

#

Other profiles are hit or miss

idle sierra
#

tm5.exe?

modern walrus
#

yes the little green thing

idle sierra
modern walrus
#

click that then go to the folder with TM5

#

& look for a folder called bin

#

you want this one

modern walrus
sudden torrent
#

Yeah it's super weird, it tries to load and just crashes every thread immediately even at jedec

modern walrus
#

even if you unzip the rar file again & let it overwrite the old one?

idle sierra
#

ngl

#

having a hard time with this config

#

should i try running the default test?

modern walrus
#

are you getting errors?

idle sierra
#

how do i know?

modern walrus
#

would say there

idle sierra
#

OH

sudden torrent
#

Try running it as admin also

idle sierra
#

it being open?

#

is a test?

#

i didnt even realize

#

LMFAO

lavish tundra
#

me when I edited a version of TM5 to use and attached it to a guide no one uses

sudden torrent
#

Yes it starts on open

modern walrus
#

oh ya run as admin lol I forgot that

idle sierra
#

no errors

#

typing on discord is slow tho

#

assuming its because of the test

sudden torrent
#

That's expected

modern walrus
#

lol ya you're basically using all your RAM rn

#

kicking its ass too

idle sierra
#

okay running it as admin now

#

in 1 minute i had 0 errors

#

nothing

modern walrus
#

these need to be pinned somewhere or something... like just link to NeweggTechie github at least

sudden torrent
idle sierra
#

yeah man

#

no errors

#

just went through the test twice

modern walrus
idle sierra
#

ah

lavish tundra
sudden torrent
#

The test runs for several hours and stops automatically when done

idle sierra
sudden torrent
#

yes

idle sierra
modern walrus
#

should go thru 3 cycles & take like an hour & a half per cycle I think

idle sierra
#

before i go to bed

lavish tundra
#

extreme anta running 2 cycles in 5 mins isnt a thing

#

takes like half an hour per cycle

idle sierra
lavish tundra
#

ah

#

yep

#

u never loaded config

idle sierra
#

yeah

modern walrus
#

oh might want this to see all your timings in windows btw. This is the newer one that shows you which gear you're in too

lavish tundra
modern walrus
lavish tundra
#

load extreme anta

idle sierra
#

simple test is really that bad?

lavish tundra
#

Or just delete that version of tm5 and launch the one from my guide thats linked

#

it defaults extreme anta

modern walrus
#

ya sorry I sent you ancient TM5 lol

#

I'm gonna download the one RAWR linked rn cuz I think mine is like a year old

lavish tundra
#

thats the latest version

idle sierra
#

ok

#

its on

lavish tundra
#

screenshot?

#

ok great

idle sierra
#

jesus christ

#

yeah i can tell this is more demanding

#

my typing is loadiing slow

#

so slow

modern walrus
#

ya it's beating your RAM into submission rn lol

idle sierra
#

LOL

#

why is my freq 3990?

#

is that just the

#

specific number

#

and they just say 4000 to round up?

modern walrus
# idle sierra

you may not wanna do the whole mission of setting all the timings but at least drop tWR to like 12-14, tRRD_S/L to 6/6, & tFAW to 24

modern walrus
#

does it to me all the time

#

like rn I'm not running 4600

#

I'm running 4596

idle sierra
modern walrus
#

lol no after the test

#

or you can do it now then run the test

idle sierra
#

sure

idle sierra
#

looks confusing since theres a ton of TWR

lavish tundra
#

in ur bios

modern walrus
#

ya just go to BIOS & do it there

idle sierra
#

wait ill continue the test since im almost at 5 minutes

#

i havent hit an error yet

modern walrus
#

the ones I said up top are like super safe ones

idle sierra
#

okay yeah we're fine for cycle 1

modern walrus
#

eh maybe not tWR 12 but kinda

#

oh okay just go to BIOS now then lol

lavish tundra
#

trrd and tfaw looks high

modern walrus
#

super high

#

but they're on auto

idle sierra
#

alr

#

back in bios

lavish tundra
#

you wanna get 4 16 there so test is faster

idle sierra
#

dram timing control?

modern walrus
#

ya or at least 6/6/24 lol

#

yes

idle sierra
#

okay i'm here

modern walrus
#

okay send a picture real quick lol

idle sierra
modern walrus
#

okay the first ones under Secondary Timings

#

put 6 for them

#

so like the 5th & 6th from the top I mean

#

the first autos

idle sierra
#

uh

modern walrus
#

put 6 for both of those (we're playing it safe here)

idle sierra
#

done

modern walrus
#

okay just leave REF cycle alone

idle sierra
#

alright

modern walrus
#

scroll down more to after REF cycle Time 4

idle sierra
#

alright

#

i'm here

modern walrus
#

my bad I put my only ASUS board in my dad's build & it was AMD anyway so I dunno these BIOS by heart lol

idle sierra
#

all good LOL

modern walrus
#

send another picture

idle sierra
#

same thing

#

doesn't go any lower

modern walrus
#

lol after those

#

for real??

idle sierra
#

yep

#

wait

modern walrus
#

not even if you like use the arrow keys?

idle sierra
#

i'm dumb

#

yes it does LOL

#

there

modern walrus
#

I'm like damn I've never seen them let you change that many but not the rest lol

#

14, 12, 16

#

leave those auto

idle sierra
#

got it

modern walrus
#

shoot sorry

#

for DRAM FOUR ACT Win Time put 24

idle sierra
#

got it

sudden torrent
idle sierra
#

i ❤️ asus

modern walrus
#

for Write Latency put eh... 18 safest

idle sierra
#

isn't it already 18?

sudden torrent
#

Their hardware can be good sure but I find their interface to be... different from everyone else calling things weird names

modern walrus
#

ya cuz it'll do the next even number below tCL

#

so at 19tCL, 18 is auto

#

so you can leave auto

lavish tundra
#

asus has given me nothing but problems and dumb issues

idle sierra
modern walrus
#

just making sure cuz MSI will let tCWL be higher than tCL which makes no sense to me

#

featuring keychron keyboard

modern walrus
#

ya just go ahead & exit. tertiaries matter but we're not going all out so just test this

modern walrus
#

it's like ya right MSI no thanks

idle sierra
#

hey fal'cie, you play eso right?

#

restarting

modern walrus
#

might take slightly longer cuz training so don't worry if that happens

idle sierra
#

posting

#

cool, we're in

modern walrus
#

#

ty man

modern walrus
#

what do asrock timings look like now?

#

I mean you could try dropping primaries & all sorts of fun if you wanted to but

idle sierra
#

lets see

modern walrus
#

I doubt you wanna spend the time & you're already way better than before anyway

idle sierra
modern walrus
#

ya I mean as long as that gets thru anta777 which I think is highly likley

#

like I'd be extremely surprised if it didn't

#

you can chill on that

#

there's plenty more to tighten if you feel like squeezing a little more but that should be considerably better than 3200c22

idle sierra
#

DAMN

#

MY FPS IS WAY MORE STABLE

digital dirge
#

I spent almost 4 hours yesterday with afterburner and timespy fine tuning my 1650s, I got a 10fps increase in the main game I play so I'd say time well spent :P

idle sierra
#

digital dirge
#

Out of 38202 benchmarks for my gpu.. I'm at least 81 so thats not to bad I suppose. Can't seem to get above that though, I think it's because the people above me have better cpus.

sudden torrent
#

They're also probably using LN2

digital dirge
#

Oh, makes sense.

proven canopy
#

I'd be surprised if anyone has run a 1650 on ln2, maybe there are a few results on volt mod, but most likely it's a 12900k @ 5.3 with ddr5, that'll help time spy a ton.

sudden torrent
#

Oh it's a 1650, yeah I missed that part

#

You're probably right

proven canopy
#

Looks like bavor and traktor have all the glod s, either on 10900k or 5950x

sudden torrent
#

Higher is better but there's a point of diminishing returns, where it costs much more for not much more performance. 4000 is good and still a good price for a decent binned kit.

#

You'll probably have to run gear 2 but it's worth the small penalty if you have a good kit, 4000 with 18 or lower cas.

#

That's actually cheaper than the cheapest 3600 c16 kit right now

frigid cedar
#

Learned 12th gen has this flaw where uncore underload usually drops from 4.7 and matches the e cores so I overclocked the uncore from 3.6 to 4.4

#

So now underload it stays at 4.4 and drops to 4.0 when idle instead of 3.6 underload and 4.7 when idle

#

Oh and @sudden torrent I couldn't get to 6000mhz again but 5800mhz cl36 cr 1T works and taking your advice setting it to 1.2 volts only draws 177 watts

sudden torrent
#

Very nice, above average scores and less power/heat

frigid cedar
#

That's my goal

#

It's pretty much squeezing the life out of the uncore and e cores as much as possible while keeping the p cores undervolted and cold

#

Oh and working on ddr5 latency

sudden torrent
#

Yeah messing with a CPU OC will often destabilize a memory OC, that's why I usually recommend memory last

frigid cedar
#

I'm a bit afraid of base clock to touch it

sudden torrent
#

Most of the time it doesn't help much anyway

frigid cedar
#

Understandable gonna leave it be unless I one day magically realize I've run out of things to mess with which I doubt will ever happen

#

I feel so out of the loop what I knew about 9th gen feels useless for a 12900k

sudden torrent
#

It is a pretty huge jump, not just clock speed changes and cache increases any more. Now we have a whole new architecture with e-cores to deal with, and everyone has to relearn overclocking for DDR5

frigid cedar
#

I guess that's what 6 generations of 14 nanometer knowledge does for you when superfin comes out

digital dirge
proven canopy
#

Yeah, figure, the only guys benching that card on a 12900k are doing it as a hobby as that card probably isn't the daily gpu

#

remember to set leaderboard mode

#

oh hey, jedi is #1, I know that guy

#

I think he's top 3 hwbot enthusiast team usa

sudden torrent
#

4000 c16 like that is going to be either b-die or rev.e and either is great for overclocking

#

CR 1T and 2T would be the 10th gen equivalent

proven canopy
#

You can do 1t on 12th gen gear 2,, 10th gen and lower only has gear 1

#

To clarify, it's a completely separate parameter, 10th gen and lower just don't have options for gear 2 etc

potent fiber
#

Yea CR is command rate, which isn't the same as gear 1/gear 2.

#

@modern walrus is it possible to tune VRAM timings?

proven canopy
#

Not on modern cards, but yes on older stuff, like 2010 era

#

At least, not easily

sterile flame
#

Mmm fair enough

sudden torrent
#

Increasing the frequency reduces your net latency anyway

sterile flame
#

Yeah I remember that from ddr4 oc at least

#

speaking of memory tho

#

does rendering use GPU core clock at all?

sudden torrent
#

Depends on the program

modern walrus
#

I do 4200c18-24-24-46 on dual rank DJR on my 10700KF

modern walrus
sterile flame
#

the workload is still heavily CPU lol

sudden torrent
#

Never used it so I wouldn't know about that one. Sounds interesting though.

modern walrus
#

if you do one of those rig jobs hanging it by zip ties lol

#

you could get one of those RAM coolers too

#

they're alright generally. I have the Corsair one with two fans

#

overpriced tho imo

#

I used an L bracket & one of the screws on the top fans/rad to hold a 92mm fan before but it ain't pretty

modern walrus
#

eh let me go thru all 10 million of them hold on

digital dirge
#

Does good pc airflow not work good enough to cool ram so you gotta get a dedicated fan on it?

modern walrus
#

it depends on how much voltage you're running thru RAM in my experience

#

damn I really can't find the picture with the L bracket

#

I hated it so much that I just ended up doing this

digital dirge
#

Oh you are custom looped?

#

Pog

modern walrus
#

ya on 5900x & 10900K

#

for me the issue with it is it stuck too far out & hit ipes

#

but it doesn't go much higher than the top of the RAM

#

oh damn

#

now that I look at it, it's gonna be tight on your rad if it even fits at all

digital dirge
#

There is no way

modern walrus
#

that's the Corsair one I have ya

#

I use it in 5000D now cuz I went with the loop

#

for whatever reason my DRAM temps were getting nuts

#

I mean probably the reason is I run 4133c15-15-15-35 at 1.64v

#

I'd rather run higher voltage tighter but my IMC needs too much IO voltage

#

that's actually kind of lucky cuz mine would immediately BSOD at 48C

#

honestly I've been slacking on benching for FPS

#

I usually measure improvements using like ycruncher or something liek that

#

in my experience you'd either get BSOD or crash

#

it also depends on ICs

#

like Rev E or DJR can handle the heat pretty well

#

bdie just quits

#

it could ya

#

best bet for those unexpected shut downs is to check event viewer

#

cuz GPU & CPU could also be the culprit

#

ah okay

#

ya stupid sweaty RAM overclocks are nice for benchmarks but for gaming it'll just be a pain cuz it crashes when it heats up

#

could also depend on secondary timings

#

all things being equal the 4000c16 should feel quicker

#

secondary & tertiary timings

#

if you run 4000c16 on XMP, it'll be likely be slower than 3600c19 tuned

#

ya XMP is lazy honestly

#

not on your part

#

but the motherboard only cares about working

#

& people who manufacture RAM can't tell the motherboard any of the timings to pick aside from primaries

#

I mean they should feel pretty similar because every 200mhz is about the same as 1 tCL according to the guide

#

some things work better with more frequency, some with tighter timings

#

From what I've experienced, temps shouldn't be bad unless you're like north of 1.55v

#

but--and this feels like a bit of a cop out--it depends on a lot of things & every kit is different

#

heat could the be the culprit, especially if your tRFC is really tight

#

wait hold on one second I might've missed something here

#

which CPU?

#

oh okay nvm that is always gear 1

#

er 1:1

#

was CPU overclocked?

#

ya bdie can start acting crazy at about 40C

#

see I've only ever had it crash

#

like it'll be completely fine then for me it's 48C where it immediately BSODs

#

there's like tRFC but also like tRFC2 & 3 I think

#

this was on stress tests

#

lol I waste so much time overclocking I rarely get to actual gaming

#

I should do a tm5 and check temps right?

#

Just to make sure my temps are good?

#

I never thought about it.

#

do you overclock your ring core?

#

oh okay good

#

what memory tests are you using?

#

oh okay ya TM5 is the best I've seen so that should be good

#

no chance your CPU or GPU is throttling?

#

is it possible that warzone just benefits from higher frequency?

#

I know that game is massive. What storage are you using?
