I got the 5700X3D at the start of the year and decided to finally look into undervolting as everyone was talking about it and i like to get the most out of my components.
I used PBO2 to adjust voltages (always same value across all cores) and used cinebench 2024 for the benchmarks. My results are confusing me as there is barely any difference and now i don't know whether or not to stay with the undervolt.
| Voltage | Score |
|
|
|
| Stock | 818 |
| -15 | 810 |
| -20 | 808 |
| -30 | 815 |
| -35 | 811 |
I did not measure temperature over time for each setting but i can say that max Temp during all the tests was 76 Degrees and depending on the setting the Average Temp was 73-75 degrees. I had HWMonitor open and took periodic looks at it.
As you can see scores and temperature barely changed and i would attribute the little difference there is to just margin of error (but correct me if I'm wrong).
Now i don't quite know what to make of this. Undervolting seems to lower the temperature by 1-2 degrees at most and performance are what i would call essentially the same.
I have seen some videos where people get noticeable differences in temperature and score and now I'm unsure if my results are just great with the stock voltages or if this is a bad sign?
I would greatly appreciate any insight as i don't know if i should use any undervolt with these results and what this means.
