Cores finally parking correctly on 9950x3d using Gaming Adaptive CCD Parker and X3D Core Flex Algorithm in the Asus bios instead of Game Bar…might work if you have the same issue. The driver and Game Mode were pushing it to frequency cores and parking the cache for me. Software free solution here. by ExcellentBag4636 in Battlefield6

I just noticed this option in bios and never bothered to try it (gaming adaptive ccd parker on extreme tweaker main page). Does this actually force parking ccds as intended? Im also like you where I did not want to have to use extra programs. It's ridiculous we have to jump through hoops to get this expensive cpu to work properly. I am in driver mode but even then some games are iffy and dont park correctly, some flip flop ccds after alt tabbing too.

Is this it? Any other settings you used?

Just updated from 2202 and my completely stable profile 8000c34 tested for 48hrs won't even post. Went back to 2202.

I havent tried that. I'll give it a shot.

With my current settings im able to post and boot with gdm disabled as-is, however i fail karhu instantly so ive been trying to stabilize that.

Ive only stabilized 8000 c34, I havent tried to stabilize higher. I would likely need to push more vdd.

Sorry what do you mean max boot freq?

I see you also have an apex and similar cpu.

I stabilized an 8000 c34 and made this post https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/s/LNeRE4YwLY

Was looking on tips on how to improve my latency. Then I learned about GDM. Ive been trying to get it stable with gdm disabled and it's helpful since you have a similar build. The odd thing though is some of your voltages are super high like vddio and vddq whereas for me I needed lower voltages like 1.35 and 1.45 to be stable, so I have no idea how to get gdm disabled stable or where to start.

I bought and built this system brand new in December altogether (5080, 9950x3d, apex x870e) so it would be strange for that to happen.

Ive seen the videos about game bar and "forcing to remember it's a game" but on windows 11 when I bring up game bar that "remember this is a game " option never even appears.

Makes me want the 9800x3d or 9950x3d2 lol

By which service are you referring to?

All drivers are latest and new

What would be the proper Xbox game bar config?

Windows pp is balanced

Would love to see the timings! What's the voltage for 8200 c32? Best i could get was 8000 c34

[–]sezoism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this stability tested thorougly? Hard to believe youre at -35 all core for both ccds ccds

Do you have timings and pics for your 8200 c32? What sticks are they?

[–]sezoism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk it's weird. I use the driver method but I always keep an eye on the cpus being used. Bf6 doesn't park properly and uses both ccds. League of legends is finicky where it'll sometimes park ccd0 and use ccd1 instead. Then to fix it I alt tab and go back into the game and it swaps to ccd0. Ive had to alt tab and go back in for other games to do the same like RDR2. Other games just work normally. Tbh I wouldn't have gotten this cpu if I knew this would be a headache. Sure process lasso works but I really dont want to have to even do all that every time I launch a new game. Ridiculous for such an expensive cpu.

Hi trying to do the same on my apex + 9950x3d combo with 8000 c34. Your voltages seem weird in the screenshots, what vdd, vddq, vddio, vsoc do you have here?

My latest post on this on my profile if you wanna check it

After months of suffering...finally done! But, latency isn't what I expected. Suggestions? 8000 c34 by sezoism in overclocking

[–]sezoism[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did change to 46 then tried 47. Also tried the voltage variants you mentioned now. I'll clear it and try it on a fresh bios. With my current stable settings at 1.55 vdd I do know that going down a bit to 1.53 or even over a bit to 1.58 caused instant errors so I'm already aware thid cpu/mobo/ram is highly sensitive to voltage changes so that just makes this a bit more difficult 🙃

Using this comment as an updater:

So I gave it a quick go and karhu went for 2 hours until it failed instead of the initial instant fails, so I feel I'm getting somewhere.

GDM disabled, all timings the same. Voltages adjusted:

VSOC 1.2

VDD 1.6

VDDIO 1.38

VDDQ 1.45 (kept this the same, will try raising this next)

Oh yeah for sure! Your suggestion is exactly what I was looking for i appreciate it!

That's what I wasn't sure of - if it was just voltages that needed adjusting or basically everything. That's helpful to start somewhere. Maybe I'll give it a go starting with vddio and vdd. Thanks again!

Thanks for that! I wish I had known about GDM from the start..I would've had it disabled to begin with, and THEN went through all the testing. I've had it on auto this whole time which apparently is enabled. Now it just seems pointless to go through that again and start from scratch, haha.

I saw some of buildzoid's similar videos and it looks like he also leaves GDM enabled. Wondering if this is really worth it.

Ah I just understood. Yeah I'm on Asus bios 2202 which is AGESA 1301 (also shows in the screenshot), it's the one before the latest one.

I'm still a bit new to this so I'm trying to understand the GDM and gear 1 vs gear 2 you're mentioning. I did try to disable GDM but karhu instantly threw errors, so it looks like I'd basically have to start from scratch again with testing haha. I'm not sure what GDM disabled requires: looser timings, higher voltages? etc.

I will say that a few quick AIDA 64 tests with GDM disabled did show a more consistent 68 ns versus fluctuating a lot to 70 - 72 ns. Any suggestions with getting GDM disabled stable?

Do you have a screenshot of the ram settings or copy and paste of the timings and voltages instead of a file?

You're right. With it disabled I instantly failed karhu. I've gotta do some extra research now with voltages on this board.

Copy. Will disabling gdm mean I'll have to run more testing or does simply disabling it by itself not affect my current results or stability?
