Hi there, I got this GE78HX 627CN 4090 14900HX Im not sure if im on the right concept of laptop OC. What I need to do is give GPU and CPU as much power as possible. And create a balance between GPU and cpu otherwise stutters? I just OCed the ram, give them 1.2v 16*2(default 1.1), but I didn’t touch cpu cause I have no idea if my concept is correct, Do I need to manually set my Ecore to lower frequency in order to let the P core drain more power ? I believe my P core set to 55 or something default which can never be reached since thermal issue. My P core is 40 something, is it good idea to set my ecores to 33 or even lower for Pcore to perform better???

Is there any software that can flash a bios on rdna 4 yet? I’m so anxious to give this card more power and see what it can really do. I have the 9070xt red devil and it will be getting a water block. It wants more wattage! I bet 400 is the sweet spot. Any tips/advice?

Hello, after like 2 years of usage it came to my mind that i should start undervolting. So i looked stuff up and tried to build some knowledge, but i am kinda stuck now. I set a Powerlimit 170/125w which drastically reduced fan speed, temps and energy comsumption at the wall socket i am metering. Then i tried undervolting in the ASUS Bios, i changed the „Global Core SVID Voltage“ to „adaptive“ and Offset to different values. I tried: -0.06 -0.07 -0.08 -0.09 I can see that its working, because in HWinfo at Voltage Offset its showing the offset value i configrued in BIOS.

But the results are basically identical to each other. The power consumption at the wall is identical, the Temperatures are identical (72°C), the Fan (Dark Rock Pro) is always at 930rpm. Cinebench 2024 shows slight differences, 1391 - 1305. At -0.09v after 5min Cinebench i got a BSOD.

But its strange that only the Power Limit made a noticable difference by the undervolting does not.

Am i doing something wrong? See attached measurments

Thanks

Hi, around december i managed to get my 5600x to get to 5ghz by just using AMD PBO settings. Today i wanted to check if it was still working and it doesn't really seem to go over the base boost clock of 4.6 ghz. Am i missing something? Does anyone else have this problem? I do not remember using Ryzen Master to reach the 5ghz

I purchased a high-spec PC 3 years ago, with the following specifications:

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X

RAM: HyperX Fury 32GB 3200MHz DDR4 CL16

Motherboard: MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus

Storage: XPG GAMMIX S50 Lite

HDD: Seagate BarraCuda ST2000DM008 2TB 7200 RPM

GPU: Palit 3070Ti

PSU: XPG Core Reactor 850W Gold

Monitor: Zowie XL2546K 240Hz

Mouse: Logitech G Pro Superlight

Keyboard: HyperX Alloy Origins

My experience with this computer was perfect. I played all online competitive games smoothly. However, after about a year, I encountered an electrical issue in the room where the computer is located. When I turn on the computer and enter Windows, the main electrical panel in my home closes the room's switch, causing the computer to shut down. I repeated this process of opening and closing the switch more than five times until I realized there was a real issue with power interruptions.

I replaced the switch responsible for electricity in the room, and the problem did not occur again. However, the gaming experience on the computer became Shit af . There is no smooth experience, with a lot of FPS drops, micro-freezes, and other issues. At the same time, a sound problem occurred, whether using speakers or headphones, with noise or cutting in the audio during listening to songs or browsing on YouTube. The experience became truly annoying.

I performed numerous optimizations and tweaks on Windows, BIOS, drivers, and even a clean install. I'm Nerd about PCs. No throttling is occurring, and every component is operating below 70 degrees Celsius. I stress-tested every component, from CPU and RAM to NVME and SSDs, GPU, and Power Supply. Everything appears to be working perfectly, with no signs of failure. RAM tests show no errors in Memtest86, TM5, or OCCT after leaving the tests running for over 8 hours.

I tried moving the computer to another room, but the result was the same – a lot of freezes and terrible stutters. Games like Fortnite and Valorant are now unplayable. I'm experiencing a significant drop in FPS and stuttering during mouse movements.

I monitored every voltage rail on the motherboard (12V, 5V, 3.3V), and all were stable during stuttering. I also tested the health of all storage components, which are in very good condition.

I suspected the GPU, motherboard, and CPU. I attempted to sell all of them and bought new ones (I5 12400F, MSI PRO B660-A DDR4), and used a friend's GPU (1660 Super EVGA). Surprisingly, the issue persists – the same drop in FPS and freezes.

Now, I suspect there might be an issue with my home electricity or possibly the power supply. Can someone provide guidance on what I should do? Any ideas?

After trying a new PSU, I thought my problem was fixed — but that wasn't the case.

I've been dealing with this issue for over a year now. I've tried countless optimizations, replaced multiple components, and done everything I could think of — but nothing has brought my system back to how it used to feel.

I even bought a high-quality power strip for my PC setup, but that didn’t help either.

Everything seems fine on paper, but in reality the experience is still full of microstutters, inconsistent performance, and input lag

Hi,

I don't know a lot about OC & UV but given the problems with 13th/14th gen I tried my best to secure stable and safe conditions for my CPU. The problem is that I score about 17-18k in Cinebench which is well below the specs. I wouldn't mind something around 21k but I'm worried that my CPU would degrade.

I've just put a new GPU and with that reinstalled W11 with all newest drivers. Core voltage and offset are set in BIOS with other settings set in XTU

My rig:

• 13600kf with a contact frame and sizable tower cooling
• Asrock Z790 Pro RS/D4
• 32GB 3200mhz Fury DDR4 (on xmp1)
• 5070ti
• 1000W deepcool PSU
• 2x NVME (samsung and kioxia - both midrange models)

Settings of my setup:

• Core Voltage offset -0,040V
• Core Voltage: 1,280V
• Iccmax: unlimited
• Core voltage mode: Adaptive
• Thermal Velocity Boost: Disabled
• Short Boost Power: 181W
• Boost Power: 150W
• P-cores: 52x
• E-cores: 40x

In hwinfo i see max core vids around 1.295V and max temp of 80*C, XTU shows power limit throttling spikes every now and then.

Thanks for help

Hello all,

I have previously gotten help from you, and successfully overclocked Kingston DDR4 2x8GB set. That thread is still available to be found on this forum. A Big thank you to everyone who helped!

However, I have now updated some components, and am again reaching out for help.

Naturally, I will do this overclocking following the Github DDR4 overclocking bible, but some questions:

• I have identified (based on below code), that the new ICs are Micron, but which revision (also what is the three-character code for Github guide, to identify the limitations/possibilities), could you help?

• What would be the benefits/bottlenecks for this IC version (please note that I am on B660M-mobo, so I am limited to max 1,39V DRAM voltage, and limited to Auto on VCCSA and VCCIO voltage)

• Double confirmation: Since I cannot change VCCSA/VCCIO (they must stay in Auto), is it 100% safe for my processor/memory controller to change the DRAM voltage to 1,39V, and tighten the timings (especially important since limiting the VCCSA/VCCIO voltage is highlighted in the Github guide, but impossible for my mobo).

My new setup:

Asus Tuf Gaming B660M Plus D4 (the only old part here)

Intel i5-14600KF (CEP disabled, VRM voltage offset -0.05 V)

Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x16GB, 3600, 16-19-19-36

CMK32GX4M2D3600C16

A4WZT5041AC47N -2

Hello everyone, when I first bought a video card and installed it in my PC, it produced frequencies up to 2890 mhz at its peak, with an average of 2730 - 2860 mhz. The mode switch on the graphics card itself is set to performance. I decided to install the GPU tweak III utility and after that the frequency does not boost above 2715 mhz. Please tell me how to get everything back? I tried deleting the utility, changing the modes, but nothing helps.

I just had a quick question. I saw everywhere online that undervolting is good and people undervolted like -0.180 and stuff but my system which has an i9-12900k while undervolting goes to -0.030 and crashes and each stress test whether it be normal or undervolted goes until 90C and gets a score of around 26500 in cinebench

The original post: /r/overclocking by /u/Educational-Trip4935 on 2025-04-08 08:29:35.

Iv got hyperx fury 5600 ddr5 overclocked to 6800 1.45 and its been working for a few days now without any crashes. But I feel like its not really stable. Iv had times where weird loading or flickering has occoured. The thing is im playing a game that is greatly impacted by FPS (higher better) and the fps is also greatly affected by speed of ram. Is it possible to up the volts abit more? to 1.5? Or is that pushing it maybe.

The original post: /r/overclocking by /u/NULLBASED on 2025-04-08 08:17:39.

Wondering if there is a website that lists users hardware specs and what overclock or frames they were able to get etc?

Would be good to see which hardware pairs with certain hardware the best and stuff….

It can be hard to understand this post because I'm not sure what the exact problem is. so, I'm just listing whole situation happened to me.

furthermore, I'm not good at English so please understand.

My system is:

Gigabyte z690 gaming x ddr4 rev1.1

i5-14600KF

32GB 3600 cl18 ram

I've overclocked my cpu p core ratio by 56, vcore is 1.245v, SA 1.1v, cpu vddq1.15v.

Intel Default Setting is disabled, IA CEP is disabled too.

i've solved the voltage drop when load is running through the last post(thx for comment)

so the problem is, now i have IA max turbo limit flag on.

clock downs like 3.6GHz, without voltage drop. even cpu temps are lower then 85 degree celsius.

what i don't understand is, if it means failing oc, it could print bluescreen or, WHEA. not lowering clocking and passing linx tests.

power limit is set to 4096, and i dont think power limit is problem even if it's not set(bc of low tdp).

should i simply set higher vcore? or there's setting for this?

ps. i have one more problem.

when i click restart in windows to try to adjust vcore, and enter bios, set vcore, click save and restart, changed vcore not applied immediately. i must click turn off in windows and manually start computer by pushing power butten after changing vcore and boot. any idea with this problem?

Hello everyone,

I would like to “slightly” upgrade my PC, by changing my processor. I am currently on an i7 7700k accompanied by a gtx 1080ti, and I would like to upgrade to a Ryzen 7 5800. I have already done a lot of research, and this processor seems rather efficient (+ than the i7) and would give the possibility of obtaining more fps on games such as flight simulator, which is one of the most demanding in terms of performance. I wanted to know if this change could be really interesting and if a bottleneck could not set in. Thanks in advance !

Is this normal? I have a 240mm aio cooler. Everything is set to default except I turned PBO on in ryzen master. Idle temps, and gaming temps seem fine. With pbo off temps don't get above 60 in cinebench. Thanks for any info.

Just wondering how much thermal putty might be needed for a 7900xtx, my model being the:

NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 7900 XTX Vapor-X 24GB.

I'll be adding a water block to it later

The thermal pads between the block and core are all 1mm, and the pads between the PCB and backplate are 3mm.

If anyone understands the math of thermal putty to pads, here are the pads the water block comes with.

I've been reading and looking at Snarks Corner for some education on the subject, but I'm hoping someone here has first-hand experience with the card.

I was thinking the 50gr tub of Upsiren Ultra + another 20gr.

I'm running a CUDA task 24/7 and overclocked my Gigabyte Windforce 5070Ti OC by 450mhz core and 375mhz memory. I gained 10% CUDA performance by that.

I set static fan at 100% and temps are below 65 celcius.

I didn't mess with power settings or voltages.

Is this safe to run like this 24/7?

The original post: /r/overclocking by /u/CaliFlow on 2025-04-08 01:22:09.

First time OC and I'm wondering if I glaringly overlooked anything. Build is:

9070 XT Powercolor Reaper

AMD Ryzen 9 9950x3d

Arctic LF III RGB Pro AIO

G.Skill Trident Z Royal Neo 2x32GB 6000MHz CL30

Gigabyte X870E Aorus Pro

Corsair HX1000i Platinum

Stock vs. custom results: https://imgur.com/a/Osnt5iw GPU OC settings: https://imgur.com/a/XlOlos3

I used 3dmark's Steel Nomad as a way to gauge performance and measured temperatures with HWiNFO64. Final score was 7209.

I maxed powerdraw (+10%) and undervolted by 5mV at a time until it crashed at -100mV. Felt like -85mV was "stable", where I scored 7413

Next I tried various undervolts ranging from -60 to -20 while testing powerdraw between -10% to +10% to get an idea of the sweet spot. I changed voltage or power draw one at a time.

Next, I turned on Fast RAM and adjusted clock speed until I received best results at 2700MHz.

I tried offsetting Max Frequency positively but performance wasn't impacted significantly. I found a sweetspot at -300MHz.

The settings I ended with felt like the best mix of Performance, thermals, and power consumption.

Do I just need to stress test now and ss AMD Adrenalin acceptable for that?

Is there anything I drastically overlooked/do my settings seem within reason?

I haven't tested games yet, so I may have to readjust later.

Thanks for reading!
