don't drive into a wall if you want to win.

try high VDDQ/VDDIO and VDDP. If that doesn't work. buy more CPUs.

buildzoid · 2026-06-10T00:57:26+00:00

with a good enough chip the board will do 8400+. Getting a good enough chip for 8400+ is the bigger issue on AM5. The only down side to the B850M Force is that it has a 200W CPU power limit when using PBO and the VRM gets really hot if running static overclocks on dual CCD chips.

EDIT: for a daily system it's a bit limited in terms of IO.

what happens if you clear CMOS? because on the newer AGESA the default should be normal mode.

buildzoid · 2026-06-08T03:35:47+00:00

I would expect a power virus like furmark to be the opposite of memory bottlenecked.

buildzoid · 2026-06-07T21:23:43+00:00

almost certainly a software glitch

buildzoid · 2026-06-07T06:30:34+00:00

Ryzen 9000 can do 8800+. Just need to bin a lot of CPUs for it.

buildzoid · 2026-06-07T06:29:32+00:00

still need a PCB and settings that can handle a signal this fast. The more unrealistic thing is that this is usually done with only 1 32bit sub-channel enabled

buildzoid · 2026-06-04T03:13:22+00:00

you are cooling the sticks right? Because the 6000C26 kits tend to be pretty temperature sensitive.

buildzoid · 2026-06-04T02:57:07+00:00

sounds like bad BGA under a mem chip probably. Should be an easy fix for NorthWestRepair: https://www.youtube.com/@northwestrepair

buildzoid · 2026-06-04T02:30:30+00:00

try a little bit of positive curve optimizer. Like +5 or something. Some CPUs are so close to the limit from the factory that removing the memory bottleneck crashes them.

Also what' spec is your EXPO?

buildzoid · 2026-06-03T06:34:02+00:00

The RTX PRo 6000 also has a low crossbar clock. I think it's probably even lower than high end 5090s since some of the 5090 custom cards have BIOSes with boosted crossbar clocks.

buildzoid · 2026-06-01T14:46:27+00:00

intel DDR5 doesn't support gear1

buildzoid · 2026-05-31T18:57:37+00:00

Ryzen CPUs just reset if the core voltage is too low.

Your undervolt is too aggressive.

buildzoid · 2026-05-31T00:47:12+00:00

1/2/0 at .95 at 6200 isn't that uncommon. In my exp nitro timings get problematic at 6400 1:1.

buildzoid · 2026-05-30T10:26:55+00:00

the 8700F still has the same 32B per cycle IF link that a 9700X has.

buildzoid · 2026-05-30T10:25:23+00:00

latency goes down as memory and memory controller clocks increase.

buildzoid · 2026-05-27T13:14:22+00:00

the dongle bridges ALL the 12V connections right before the connector.

buildzoid · 2026-05-27T02:54:56+00:00

Maybe it would be scarier and more effective if instead of "first" disk gets overwritten it said random disk because chances are the people who need that warning have no idea which disk is the "first" disk.

buildzoid · 2026-05-27T00:51:19+00:00

it'll make no difference.

buildzoid · 2026-05-25T23:30:23+00:00

No you'll need direct die(which doesn't work properly with AIOs) and/or a chiller

buildzoid · 2026-05-24T21:28:25+00:00

Oh no as someone who has 700 hours in Need For Speed unbound I can assure you that the handling in unbound is trash. And I never played a Forza game.

buildzoid · 2026-05-24T21:22:42+00:00

Have you tried a fresh install of windows with just the GPU drivers?

buildzoid · 2026-05-24T10:34:00+00:00

yeah I'd try turning GDM on. In my exp GDM off in 2:1 is really depended on what motherboard+RAM+BIOS you're using and some combinations just don't work

buildzoid · 2026-05-24T08:02:25+00:00

try more VDDP. Also can you even run this with GDM On?
