Hi everyone, this is my #3 post in this community about my Intel issue. Thanks for all your help

I'm currently in the RMA process and unsure whether to take a refund or replace my degraded 13900K with a new 14900K. Some say that even with Intel's recommended settings, a tweaked BIOS, and the latest BIOS update, degradation can still occur during idle

Is this true!!!

Hello, I've been fortunate enough to get a great IMC on my Ryzen 7600 (non-x, installed on an Asrock b650m pro rs wifi). After being able to run 6400MT/s, FCLK 2133 with 1,88 vSOC, i thought 6600MT/s 1,3 vSOC were possible - and it seems like it is.

I managed to consistently pass ~5hrs of TM5 extreme with good-ish timings and max tREFI. Though when running even low GPU loads during testing, the extra heat output starts to error around the 1-2hr mark. This happen even at JEDEC standart timings.

When adding GPU load the sticks reach around 53c with agressive fan-curves, but i currently have no active cooling on the RAM.

Fiddling with VDD didn't seem to help much, as the sticks were stable at higher temps but the overall temp increased, thus making it unstable yet again. Currently i have VDD=VDDQ=VDDIO at 1,38v.

What would you recommend? Anything else i can do than mount my Wraith Prism 80mm (like Buildzoid)? Would the added cooling be significant enough?

Thx in advance

Brand new rig on msi meg x870E godlike.

This scared me since I expected to get around 2450 cinabench score but Im 200 behind with this power draw.

Did some digging and changed stuff in bios: Pbo enabled +100 PB overdrive PBO Control: motherboard

This changed nothing really. Oh expo 1 is also on. 2×32gb 6000 CL 26 kit.

Then set undervolt: CO: per core. 7 cores minus 15 core 8 0 (Minus 20 instead of 15 caused a crash) Curve shaper is -10 on all but minimum and low.

This made my cpu run a bit cooler and lost 0 performance.

I think the issue is the pbo control. When set it to motherboard or amd default it only plays around 190-200. While I still have thermal headroom as I am yet to hit 80°

I read a megathread on this issue... could it be that manual pbo control is the answer? What settings would you guys consider safe? I dont want to hit absolute max temps, I only want the cpu to perform as advertised at a stable 230w under full load.

I want the cpu to be able to draw at least 230w if that's safe, but I also like the undervolting thing it has going on, if possible I wouldn't want to abandon that. I know this oc/uv is tame but I am a first timer + I want it to be very stable long term as this is my main pc so pls cut me some slack.

I have a old cpu, i7 5820k paired with a rtx 3070 and mainly use the system for gaming. I am not facing bottleneck issues most of the time but still I want to overclock the cpu to get the most out of this system. I have tried other bios versions before (my bios is the latest from 2019) but no matter what I do the bios doesnt let me input any value to the voltage or the clock speed multiplier section. I have also tried AI Suite 3 too, that software overclocked my cpu but it was really unstable and made my pc crash a lot of the time even though I did all the stress tests in that software. Completely removing AI Suite was also a big trouble so I really would prefer not to go down that road again. I am new to overclocking so keep that in mind I might be missing some obvious stuff. I really would appreciate any kind of help or advice. Thanks.

I got a new prebuilt as a gift that came with a 5070 and a i9 14900f, it had some issues at first with the pci but i got those fixed, however in hwinfo it is saying that my temps are reaching up to 90c sometimes 100c randomly whenever am just browsing, however when i do 3dmark the temps only ever reach 74c so I was wondering if the default setting it came with were bad, i heard around that the stock settings were kinda bad and i want this pc to last me a while before a upgrade, so what would good performance volts while also not degrading the card to much the mobo is a b760m c v2 and this is the cpu stuff on hwinfo while playing rust

Hi all,

Some help would be greatly appreciated which I am sure most are on here for this reason. I am currently using a AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8- Core with a Gigabyte 3070ti GPU. For the life of me I don't understand why am I am CPU bound on most games (Fortnite/FIFA). I have tried to up my graphic settings to see if this would work with mo luck. Any guidance would be awesome. I feel like I am doing something wrong.

I've tried to look everywhere for this setting and can't find much about it on Google either, it might not exist on this motherboard. But does anyone know what it could be? I think it's the last thing I need to tweak to get my FCLK stable at 1900 but I'm at a loss. Thanks in advance if anyone has any idea about this!
