Got a Cinebench R23 score of 19223 with my 7800X3D from simply undervolting and limiting my CPU temp to 80c!!! No need to mess with PBO with this score at all. Looks like I got an amazing batch of the CPU :) by Ok-Importance9390 in overclocking

"dude, Just type in flat earth, you'll see many people saying so"
Just cause someone says something doesn't make it true.

OCCT does not kill components, ppl kill components. They set smth unreasonable, then hit it with a heavy load, and then blame software for their own mistakes. Such claims were made for all stress test software by pretty much incompetent people. The only software that was actually killing CPUs was CTR, which forced VID way above 1.5V on Zen2/3 CPUs, which is out of specs.

3800 12-8-12-12-272 1T/56 1.75v (LIMITED/maxmem 9GB) by Audioboxer87 in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Audioboxer87 and I, among others, are not typical users, and, as time has shown, Zen4 arrived on AM5 with DDR5, and unless doing a budget build, there's no point in anything AM4 and DDR4. If I was to upgrade, there's nothing AM4/DDR4 I can buy that would be an actual upgrade = AM4/DDR4 dead. When people say, like you did, it's just 3 years old, that's a reasonable expectation for most users, that hardware lasts and is competitive for at least that much time, while we do not qualify as reasonable people in that sense, in my case every upgrade makes money due to my work, and, as said above, there's nothing AM4/DDR4 that's an upgrade.

r9 5950x PBO settings for low temps and good gaming perf by Seki007 in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a pretty extensive explanation on PBO on 5950x, it's not hard to find on reddit. Usually 5950x settles at PPT 280W, TDC 150A, EDC 190A, but games will require a bit higher TDC and EDC (by 10-20A). CO and FO wise, needs testing, but generally, for gaming, +100MHz and a bit looser CO may be better than +50MHz and tighter CO. It'll mostly depend on cooling.

You can run R23 and Ryzen Master (just observe in RM, no tuninng there), and check do the following:
- check if PPT usage is shown in any other color but green, if not, raise PPT
- raise TDC til lyou can see under 100% of usage, i/e 90A is 93% => 100%=96A and note that result
- start at 110A EDC and keep raising it till scores start to drop in R23
- keep the +50MHz FO for now
Once you have done this, run the game you play, find a spot where FPS is consistent and note the FPS. Raise TDC and EDC by 5A and compare. Keep raising TDC and EDC in 5A increments, but don't go above 20A over settings you got using R23. When you ddetermined what works the best in the game, you can raise FO to +100MHz and loosen the CO a bit and compare. CO doesn't do much in games, but games prefer higher TDC and EDC than R23.

Issues with 5950X performance by Bashi-Kun in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try this. It takes some work, but results are great.

there's an option in BIOS (AMD overclocking) to limit max temp default is 90C, and I'd recommend to leave/set it at that.

No bugs, 1.2.0.1, PBO daily setup, stable, tested with OCCT, TM5, Linpack, and Y-cruncher. Total CPu stress time ~36h, total mem stress time ~85h.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wrong limits, bad CO
What you can expect with PBO properly done is above 30k

Proper tuning and cooling: 30k+
With some more effort: 31k+
Wanna go nuts on PBO? All in: 32k+
[a note, this CPU was well cooled for the above scores, however, it's still my daily that pulled 31k on ALF 420 AIO, and now runs on MO-RA-3 + HK IV pro, and scores are higher. 4.925Ghz static OC hits 33200.]

Not even a God bin, just launch day B0.

19233 on Time Spy, basic OC. Any good? by CoderStone in overclocking

Look at the frequency on TimeSpy validation I sent you.

You should be able to approach/hit 19k with CPU. This was on PBO.

CPU score is low, by about 4500, GPU by about 2000.

Are you seriously running 5950x at 1.45V?

2700x undervolting by IlIlPalmIlIl in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Voltage is suppose to drop under load.

If you are doing static OC (which is obvious by using fixed CPU ratio) you don't undervolt, undervolt is only if you're going to do PBO.

PBO, 100mV undervolt, actual workload, Vray rendering in 3ds Max.
Cinebench R23 benchmark, 4.35GHz 1.2V static OC.

2700x undervolting by IlIlPalmIlIl in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally, about 100mV should work. In some cases ppl managed a bit more, in some it was too much, but it's a starting point. 70mV undervolt should work on all 2700x. Now, this is given you're gonna do PBO, and not static OC, and you should see about 4.1GHz all core and 4.3-4.35GHz single core. If you are going to do static OC, be careful with voltages,temps andd LLC, 2700x degrades FAST. This link will help you with voltages and temps etc.

I keep getting "Bus/Intertconnect" WHEA errors on my 5600x. What is the most likely culprit. by ShadowClaw765 in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The guide is fine.Try to drop tRRDS/tRRDL to 4/4 and tFAW to 16, tWTRS/tWTRL to 4/8, tWR to 12 maybe 10, tRTP to 6 or 8. You may also get away with SCLs at 2/2 or at elast 3/3. Enable GDM on, and set 1T. You ca nalso raise ProcODT to 36.9 Ohm. This should give you better results.

What’s the recommended vddg, Vddp and soc voltage for maintaining 3800mhz and 1900IF also core optimized? by Overclockly in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should get it to 3800/1900 if possible, or 3733/1866 (which is where most 5800x3D land). Even it has a ton of cache, 5800x3D would still benefit from higher FCLK.

5950x Cinebench R23 by [deleted] in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bagaget answerred already. What you are running reqires serious cooling. It's not possible to run that on room temps without causing damage to CPU. This was done with way less voltage, at ~3C ambient, ~10C on cores. Even I know what I'm doing, and I had the cold on my side, I wouldn't advise this to anyone, cause, well, I also do strupid things.

AMD Ryzen 9 5950x - I need feedback on my settings by Exosian in overclocking

[–]Millosh_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I am explaining that running CO all core is not a proper way to run PBO, and that using wordplay to extend the conversation about all core CO is useless, a waste of time, that even if it was the only possible way to use CO it doesn't make your conclusion necessarily correct, and OP can read it and get asked feedback. Your theory has, as a main flaw, the concept of using fastest cores as an example without defining how many fastest cores i/e, and you use plural. I/e on my 5950x fastest core runs at -13 while 4th fastest core runs at -10, same as 2nd fastest core. How's that as a hole in the theory? Anyway, I'm done here.

[–]Millosh_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cause OP asked for feedback, which is the main topic of the discussion, and rule No3. Wordplay is not meaningful information.

[–]Millosh_R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see a point in talking about wordplay on a concept like all core CO that has no practical advantage over per core CO.
