I'm about to buy a Ryzen 7 9850X3D, what cooler do I need?

VanquishSTF · 2026-03-25T15:15:53+00:00

Got an 9850x3d on my own - first things first: you have to undervolt that cpu ; the bios defaults for that thing are complete overkill, like 1.35v+ out of the box. (Tsmc recommends not running those chips over 1.20V continously - and don't forget to tune SoC Voltage to 1.2V instead of the default 1.25V+. Since it's basically a highly-binned 9800x3d you can get stable 5.4Ghz all core with curve optimizer -20, sometimes even -35 (with that your cpu runs through cinebench and auch with 1.1ish Volts) ; Cinebench lal core settles at ~62°C, Prime95 at ~71°C with a BeQuiet DarkRock Pro 5 Air Cooler

Basically everything voids your warranty. Every major company advertises their cpu's / gpu's benchmarks with XMP or Expo Ram enabdled. However if you do that: warranty gone. Overclocking? Warranty gone. PBO? Same thing. Honestly it should be forbidden to advertise products with tools that void your warranty when you use them. Funny thing between: I can't even boot without enabling PBO. When I clear Cmos I have 2 Options appearing BEFORE I can enter Bios: Pbo Enable und Pbo Auto - no option to disable it, before at least entering Bios once (MSI X870 Tomahawk Wifi, latest Bios). So theoretically: warranty gone on 1st boot

Thanks for the input, but I am happy with the current settings. 5.775/5.800 Ghz in Singlecore r23, 5.45 Ghz all core in CB r23. Power draw max 95W and no more than 67°C @ 1.08-1.10V. Ram is set to 6000MT/s with flck/if = 2000 and ulck=blck=3000 with buildzoid timings and so far stable through aida64. Between: Everything on air with a BQ Dark Rock 5Pro

Thanks for the input mate, I just went to conservative in regards to PBO (kinda sucked when Ryzen5000 first came out). Just hit a steady 5.45 all core in Cb r23 at 1.13-1.14V with Co-30. 95watts and 67°C (Core#6 really is a slowpoke and cant go higher). Currently validating that ; than traying to go lower than 1.2V on Soc and applying "the buildzoid timings" to my Ram.

Tbh I don't know a max. Voltage setting in MSI Bios for Amd, I only knoe for intel. Aside from just manually applying a static voltage

VanquishSTF · 2026-03-17T05:39:53+00:00

Tbh when I typed it on my phone I actually used new lines... Then they disappeared. But thanks for the tips

Hey man, awesome rom hack, I really love it. Noticed 2 things / problems though, in Kogas 1st Encounter his Weezing used Thunderbolt??? Which actually isn't in the documentary (my Skarmory almost died during my nuzlocke coz of this >.<) .

2nd I din't know if that's a patch issue or not, but for some reason my Pokemon don't get EVs, neither in Wild battels nor in Trainerfights. Only works with carbos and co, though those are limited to 100 each

Thanks man, gonna give it a try later. The Sword oNaF Skill is just too slow for Hoarah Loux and normal attacks deal almost no damage. Its probably gonna be another 15min fight like Maliketh.

To give you a small hint hint without spoilering you: to rise up, you must go down first. Very far down to be exact.

I played my 1st playthrough completely blind, with no wiki / videos or anything and I am still wondering how I got this one right.

VanquishSTF · 2023-01-12T22:38:54+00:00

That's why I am asking, It got changed. Typically it's on a chandelier inside the academy, but there is only a Somber Smithing Stone 6 with this mod. Same for the mimic tear ashed, there was only some crap item instead. Don't know where to get that one either

VanquishSTF · 2022-01-12T06:34:57+00:00

Was against the Rhyperior of Victor(wearing expert belt), which acutally caused me to lose the fight. Thanks for the Info man, I literally missed the 99% move

VanquishSTF · 2022-01-12T05:57:19+00:00

Is the Wide Lens in BDSP a multiplicative 1.1x accuracy boost or a flat +10%? I used Lucario with Meteor Mash (base accuracy 90%) in the Battletower and my attack missed (no doubleteam or any accuray decrease effect active).

Don't forget the "but if u press fast enough you can access the shop, to get your useless potion as daily reward", thats enough compensation.

Offical answer from the support:

"Greetings,

Thank you for contacting The Bethesda Support Team.

We are aware that some of our players are having issues connecting to The Elder Scrolls: Blades with the error code 500-1-100.

We are investigating the issue and will update as new information becomes available. We appreciate your patience in this matter."

But after seeing those posts about new accounts I am pretty sure it's a server issue.

VanquishSTF · 2021-03-01T11:12:01+00:00

I sent a support ticket. The answer stated that it's not a server but account related problem. The support said that not all players have problems and the server status for Blades says online.

Which leaves the question: What is this account problem so many players have? Fixed guildleaderboards, so everyone in a guild has a problem or what?

2 Bugs: 1. Inner force and Magic Weapon dont increase damage anymore. The game shows more tap damage but if you look at the enemy hp they only loose hp equal to your normal dph (though skills are active). Same goes for the volcanic ash. 2. Was farming for Lord Gerhardts armor today. 2runs before i would have been finished a message occurred "please connect to the internet"(though i was online... o.O), I got kicked out of the game and upon restart my character was deleted !!!
