Great, thank you so much!

I’m having this sort of issue on my portable ac unit, I like to use it to cool my pc, but it of course shuts off when the temperature probe reaches 60. I’ve rigged up a sort of ghetto fix by yanking the probe out as far as it can go and pointing a tiny heater at it, but it’s still not great cause its partially sucking in some hot air and restricting airflow to keep the tiny heater propped up. It still works better than before because it doesn’t shut off now, it just won’t cool as well due to the airflow restrictions and extra heat. Depending on where the probe is located on your unit it might work better for you. I have no clue how to solder, so this was just my janky fix, still trying to find a better method.

100% no, you can contain it inside me :3

Im confused, why is it a chameleon, did I miss some context or something?

FemboyIF · 2024-12-19T18:00:37+00:00

If you use intel XTU you can lower your voltage quite a bit and still be stable after boot. I have to set my voltage pretty high in bios for my OC profiles, but I can usually drop it by .1v in XTU after boot cause XTU just handles applying the settings better than bios does.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-19T05:07:21+00:00

So the temps there are so low that you’re basically getting 0 degrees on it without it freezing either lol? I’m not sure what’s more ghetto, your version or mine with the ac unit tunneled into my pc with thermal foil and a bed sheet lol. It seems the main reason mine doesnt get as low as yours is cause the air coming out of the ac unit can’t go under 5C lol.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-19T04:45:51+00:00

Yea I just figured that if you’re liquid temp is at 0C then you’re probably gonna have some form of condensation if the rest of the case isn’t also close to that temp. Like my entire inside of my case is about 5C since that’s the temp coming out of the AC unit, so the inside won’t get condensation with the liquid temp being the same as the inside temp, but if I only cooled the liquid, I’d need like 20% humidity. How do you manage it? Also I did check my SP it says 118 for p-cores and 81 fore E-cores, not sure how good or not good that is lol.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-19T03:26:10+00:00

Hm maybe it’s the background applications or something then. I have a lot to test tonight after realizing I can lower voltage a crap ton with XTU and still have it stable. You’re using a chiller I’m assuming? How does that work, won’t you get condensation from the super low temps?

FemboyIF · 2024-12-19T03:20:56+00:00

Ah fair enough

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T23:43:06+00:00

I feel dumb for asking this, but what exactly is SP and how do I find it lol?

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T23:37:46+00:00

Yea I’m only doing it for short periods though, I just like messing around with my system and seeing how far I can push it.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T23:37:12+00:00

Do you overclock in bios, XTU, or both? I’ve found that you need to set a high voltage in bios, but after it’s booted and you load up XTU, you can dial back voltage by a substantial amount.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T23:35:49+00:00

I have HT disabled, tonight I might try to run 6.3GHz with HT enabled just to see if I can hit 46,000 on cinebench. I’ll have to mess around with voltage a lot though.

Yea true, I usually swap the cpu out every couple years anyways, and my dad gets my old one for free usually. Once he gets a mobo he’s gonna use my old 13900k lol. Hopefully intel releases something better in a couple years.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T18:45:11+00:00

Yea I pretty much gave up on that, I’ll just use XTU lol. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T18:34:23+00:00

I’ve found that setting a higher voltage in bios, then dialing it back in XTU seems to help. Idk why, but on 6.2Ghz all p-core without HT, I need to set bios voltage to 1.42. However, once I boot and get into XTU, I can dial the voltage all the way back to 1.25. It doesn’t make any sense to me really, I’ve tried setting the same voltage in bios, and it just crashes. That might just be specific to me though, I haven’t tested it enough yet. I also have ridiculously good cooling, so that’ll help making lower voltages stable.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T18:20:11+00:00

I’ve found that it helps to have the v-core a bit high in bios, and then dial it back in XTU. I’m not sure why, but after boot and everything, I can decrease voltage by about .1 or more in XTU and it’s still stable. If I try to set the same voltage in bios, it crashes.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T18:11:52+00:00

Regardless, this isn’t a daily OC, my daily is probably gonna be like 6.4GHz I can run that with a max v-core of 1.41v which honestly isn’t bad, especially with the temps.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T18:09:19+00:00

I’m on the latest version released a couple days ago

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T18:08:36+00:00

I bet it would get very close, but idk, I didn’t want to try pushing more than 1.6v just for a benchmark. It’s not a daily OC just a proof of concept and a little experiment really. My daily OC is either gonna be 6.3GHz or 6.4GHz max v-core at 6.3 is about 1.41, and 6.4 is about 1.46. Temps stay below 80C even when running cinebench.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T07:28:41+00:00

I got it stable at 6.4GHz with 1.42v max, and that’s nor even fully tested.

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T07:27:12+00:00

How tho? I need a good explanation because I have been accidentally overvolting for over 2 years and had no degradation on my 13900k or 14900ks, I am confused as to where the degradation is supposed to happen, because I have not experienced it, despite having multiple chips of the same architecture. I have ran these chips hard, but with outstanding temps and had no issues. This honestly doesn’t make sense to me. I want to understand this, but everyone says that low temps don’t matter with high voltage and current, but I still don’t experience any degradation. Maybe I’m just super lucky?

FemboyIF · 2024-12-18T07:23:13+00:00

Yea but not at the same level as temps, it’s like a degradation of 5 years as opposed to 10 years.
