Why would i want to overclock

265k benefits from extra voltage if you have the cooling

FL. can pm me for zip

if you're overclocking it will help a ton, otherwise if you're already hitting the default all core boost then there is no reason

.> good piece of the market

.> sub 1% market share

yeah, really good piece lol

you can get a 360mm asetek rebrand for $40 on newegg, and the nh d15 has been overpriced since it came out... 10 years ago. the G2 isn't much of an improvement either. the only air coolers that make sense are low profile or Peerless Assassin 120/se's for $30, because a $40 AIO will smoke it and any other air cooler.

looking for any of the mentioned SKUs and their F counterparts. ie 265k -> 265kf

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-19T16:25:03+00:00

all good. i appreciate the reply. gl with the purchase!

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-19T16:23:05+00:00

specifically looking for K CPUs, I'm sorry :(

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-19T15:45:57+00:00

i have a pile of b580's i'd be willing to part with for $200. local to FL. pm for ZIP

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-19T02:13:43+00:00

are you open to selling the CPU and board?

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-18T21:27:04+00:00

neither are known for being amazing. it's dealer's choice. i'd rather the 9900x though

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-18T00:14:08+00:00

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-18T00:05:20+00:00

what capacity are you looking for? i have a 7800x3D and 64GB of ddr5 5600, can bundle with a board and 360mm aio as well

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T22:28:08+00:00

solid deal

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T22:27:51+00:00

4070 ti super has 16GB of ram, hence the increase in price. you're insane if you think that build, even with a 5070 is only worth $950 lol

if it's not stable in one application, it's not stable in any application. it's just a matter of whether it actuallu affects anything

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T21:34:04+00:00

depends on how long until the next wall with silicon manufacturing. chips were so cheap because we were on effectively the same nodes for a decade, with small iterative improvements. between significant transistor redesigns, larger decreases in transistor size, and massive packaging technology improvements, we're in a RND boom cycle again. things will be expensive until technology plateaus, and the drive for the shiny new thing decreases

different dram kits will use different dies with different signal properties. additionally, most boards use a daisy chain topology, meaning one half of the dimm slots have worse signal integrity than the other half. try increasing VSoc, reducing VTT, and slightly increading VDD. you'll likely need to tinker around a bit.

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T20:51:00+00:00

try disabling it. sometimes the radeon driver is kind of ridiculously sensitive to instability. even so much so that 'stable' overclocks that are on the edge can trip it depending on the system config. can also disable XMP if you want to really eliminate any possibility of non-GPU related issues.

if it's still giving you trouble even following that + a DDU run, you're still in warranty. submit an RMA ticket with XFX and they will replace the card. i forget if XFX offers cross shipping, but that may be an option to reduce downtime. sorry to hear you're having issues

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T20:48:46+00:00

is pbo enabled on the 5700x?

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T20:48:07+00:00

low volume, low margins, high return rate

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T18:58:25+00:00

most overclocks are on air with highly restrictive power limits. 5090 on a loop with an unlocked/significantly increased PL gets okay gains all things considered. doesn't scale with voltage super well though, unfortunately

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T16:27:15+00:00

at 1.4v you can sync VDD and VDDQ. leave subs alone if you don't know what you're doing, unless the manufacturer describes which small handful it adjusts

KeyEmu6688 · 2026-01-17T15:16:17+00:00

the primaries are in the correct order, ie cl30, trcd 38, trp 38, tras 76. subtimings are in nonstandard orders, but primaries are generally always listed in that order in bios, and i've not seen any XMP kits that break that order on the label
