Is your PBO enabled/auto in bios? Memory profile (XMP/EXPO) enabled? Fan curve change anywhere?
The same as before nothing hcange about bios only new version of it

Sometimes you have to work the lotion a little bit to get the right viscosity.
but i replace lotion it and the same one

Honestly this is well within margin of error and microcode changes over time.

Nothing to worry about.
but from 15200 to 14600 its a big gap you sure about it ?

I use Brazzers (c) AlphaCool Special Thermal Cream:roll:


use MX6. Much better.
its not metter because i get 15200 points in same mx4 and now i get 14600

Sometimes lotion can get a little dry over time. Was it a new batch of lotion or the one you previously used?

yea it the same one but it was lock inside cabinet
Ok that's good as it protects the cream from UV and heat. Also ensuring the cap or lid is not off for more than needed reduces the chance for drying and oxidation. I've pretty much exhausted this subtopic. Good luck!

Special Thermal Cream™, huh? :wtf::laugh:

from previus use but it was lock inside Cabinet

Was it really lotion, though? Are you sure it was not a cream? Perhaps a pomade? :kookoo: :laugh:

Unless you are willing to reinstall Windows to a completely blank slate and then benchmark again to prove that there is a serious issue, it's as folks told you before: OS automatic maintenance routines, antivirus software, background services from programs you installed are bogging down your processor. Good luck!

"I will do it later. However, if I say I did it and my PC was refreshed and formatted, but the score is still the same, does that mean I have a problem with my CPU?

Mx4 was really great for an FX8350, I am not sure how well it does today considering my cpu is 9 years old and they came out in 2012, Rig is in my Signature. When I built the Ry7 5800 rig in late 2021 I used Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, with a Thermalright ARO-M14.

Just use the computer and pay these benchmarks no mind.

Slow down man all that luxury treatment to your CPU with all those luxury lotions, creams, ointments and pomades will have our regular ones go on strike demanding better treatment or something :laugh:

To answer your questions in order:

1. No, it does not indicate a defect on your processor.
2. Different operating conditions result in different benchmark scores.
3. Do you feel your PC being slower or acting up? No? Then don't worry about it.

Pretty margin of error man. Ambient temp difference, a windows update, a program you've added since that runs in the background, a bios update could all be factors.... Even a different CB version.


Next time run something for 30m to an hour like a blender render or similar and then compare again later a test even in the 10m to 20m range isn't really a good comparison. Also make sure you log temps and power and keep records of them.

It puts the lotion on the skin or else it gets the hose again….

Buy some thermalright helios pads if available in your country. Top tier performance. It will at least eliminate your concerns about the paste.
If you use an aircooler or aio, you never need to deal with replacing it.
