I hope I get a good one too.. I had a good feeling when I bought the 5600X, I didn't get it when I was going to buy a 5800X, but I got that feeling today when I saw they were back in stock at Newegg, rather than 3rd party hax. 2K is probably unrealistic.. which is... this is hard to say.. ok.. because I only have 3200C14

Yeah I don't think I will get rid of the 5600X, she's my other baby. Such a wicked CPU. Only reason I considered the 5800X is because guys were hitting 2K with it.. whatever. Its just a number..

I would still be ok with 1900.. wold be groovy if it would do that no muss no fuss.. but probably not going to happen like that. My 5600X doesnt like pushing 4 sticks as much as my XT does, which is weird.

I'm sure chances are pretty good to hit 2000 on 2x8GB but not sure about 4x8GB. Seen quite a few 1:1 4000+ 2CCD validations but not really sure what they're running.

Wouldn't be worried about 5900X cooling at stock at least, if I can do it then you definitely can. Unlimited PBO is a bit tougher. But I do wish you had some of the same games, we could do some HWInfo temp logging and compare data. The CCD temp behaviour in MW is rather baffling:



I repasted with NT-H1 yesterday, it improves all round temps very slightly, but the spikes are unaffected (understandably).

I have been smoking a ton of weed over the last 6 months.

What games? I have a couple hundred.. ish..

I am ok with 2x8.. I just like to tinker with 4.

Unlimited pbo? Really?

Neat

I thought my computer crashed but it was actually just a power station blowing up. What a relief.

Just Modern Warfare 2019, the only one in which CCD1 has been behaving like that. If you play either multiplayer or Warzone it should work. Same two-core load in other games just look like below (CCD1 yellow line), much more consistent and what you'd expect. Load on Cores 0/1 consistent, clocks close to maxed out, CCD1 reasonably consistent.



Haven't got much other data at the moment. Hard to find other games that load the CPU like MW. Might just have to accept that MW is a hot n fucky game I expected the lower clocks and similar temps due to AVX, but not the natural cave formations-looking temp profile

On the RAM, I totally get the allure of running 2x8 to get the e-peen numbers but single rank actually does penalize performance I think? If some bandwidth benchmarks are to be believed I think you have to make up roughly 200-300MT/s on 2x8 to catch up to 2x16 on bandwidth and gaming? I think.

Thank goodness it was only a coal fired station.

Yeah there's no nuclear power at all in the whole of Australia, I think they're avoiding it because nobody can be bothered to figure that shit out.

Kinda the same lol
I was running Minecraft about 3 weeks ago and suddenly my computer shuts off. I was testing out a 1V undervolt on my Ryzen 5 3600 @ stock (later reverted, it was stable under Cinebench but running BOINC gave me weirdness with crashing, over the summer I'll do testing), so I thought it might be that causing shutoffs, but then I noticed that all my other things (sound system, monitors, Mac mini, P3 PC, etc.) were off too.
The room light turning off usually gives it away, but it wasn't on because there was no need for it at that time.

Turns out a storm nearby knocked out a few power lines. Took them 3 hours to get the one for our area back up. For most of the time we had to deal with the beeping of the UPS because it just kept beeping.

Side note, the UPS has our router and my Minecraft server hooked up to it.
But we forgot to hook up our modem, so the UPS did nothing. That's a project for this summer (I think my dad plans to just run the coax cable up to the office, but I'm not sure).

You can make up most of the difference, but you really have to lean on the system to do it. The performance of 4x8 is noticeable.. I was constantly bouncing back and forth between 2 and 4 sticks.

I do own that game too, I haven't played it for years

Not since Lucas Heights and some minor incidents there, which was decommissioned and nuclear research facilities constructed.

How's Thermalright for Ryzen? I'm planning on getting one as the PA120 might fit the NR200.

No no not COD4 or its remastered version. The reboot, Modern Warfare 2019, that also hosts Warzone as a separate mode. I'd be HELLA concerned if COD4 hit 85C on my CPU lol

OH.. whoops.. nope don't have that one.. sounds interesting.. hm.

Its awesome man! I love it! Better than my Le Grand Macho RT and True Spirit 140 Power on this CPU. I have a 5900X coming this week hopefully.. that should be a good test.

I was looking at that PA120, its sweet man. I would get one but I have many coolers now..

 

[toilet pepper]

I just tried 1usmus' Ryzen CTR 2.1 RC5. I have no idea what blackmagicf***** he did with it but it is amazing. I get better results in CB20 and better temps than the manual tuning I did for several days. It managed to have lower voltages and sustained effective clock casuing the high scores. "Downside" is it manages to do that with lower "clocks" so you don't see that special core "boosting" to 4.9 or 4.85GHz.

It also has a boost tester to check which are your best and worst cores with their voltage/wattage if you still want to go with the PBO/CO route.

Does anyone know anything about the new AGESA update? I noticed a new beta bios was posted to the Asus site today but was dated for yesterday.. I know this because I check their site everyday.. I will leave that at that.. who does that anyways lol..

Anyways.. I installed their last beta the day it came out, and it was dated for the day before as usual.. I know this because see above..

Just curious about the update.. because it seems every update I make is to another beta..

ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING BIOS 2401
"1. Update AMD AM4 AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.3 Patch A
2. Improve system stability

damn, i checked yesterday so this is new new - anyone else know whats in that agesa?

my x570 tomahawk doesnt have it listed yet... i want to know this too... nom nom

I think this was supposed to be the fix for the usb issues.

 

[freeagent]

They did that an update or two ago, but you never know.. I haven’t installed it yet.

I also didn’t have USB issues, maybe because my stuff is gen 3?

yeah it fixed it for some peoples issues but not everyone's so that's probably what this is and probably also better stability for greater than 2000MHz memory / fabric speeds

Hey hey my peeps. I have a curiosity to share with y'all. So a few days ago, I was playing around with my AIO mounting (finally got it situated just the way I wanted it!) while slapping on the two ARCTIC P12 PWM PST ARGB fans I got for it (I love these things) and after all that was said and done, I fired my rig back up and noticed something odd -- or maybe it's just me -- with the VRM heatsink portion of my board.

All those little vein thingies around the ASROCK logo...A. is it supposed to be like that and B. If not, could it be a defect or something?

 

[Mussels]

you probs left a plastic sheet on there and never removed it

 

[Gmr_Chick]

Had the usual plastic on it, but I made sure to peel it off.

 

[Mussels]

then either its coming loose from underneath, or you left almost enough blood to awaken it

 

[freeagent]

I think maybe that's supposed to be ASROCK Busting out?

Like rawr?
