MY build and all the benchmark numbers

[EarthDog]

PBO scalar adjusts the FIT/FITness/FailuresInTime limit of your part by that factor. Normally, Ryzen CPUs firmware manages the frequency based on the thermals and voltage and it will reduce your frequency if it sees either of those two going into ranges that reduce the long term reliability of the part. Increasing that limit (at the user’s discretion and own risk, voiding warranty, etc.) can let your system sustain higher frequencies without being throttled.

So by default, the scalar is 1x, factory default. If you increase it to 2x, it will double the limit, etc. up to 10x. You’ll have to see if it helps by trial and error because my own system sees zero improvement from this one and I have a 360mm AIO.

Do you need it for 200 Mhz?

 

[deathstar13]

ill try it with it and without it both.

 

[deathstar13]

its a bit of boost, what do i change to go higher another 100MHZ? once i have that ill put my ram back into its settings.

 

[deathstar13]

2 birds with one stoner, eeeerm i mean stone.
i got the 200Mhz OC and kept my Ram at 6400Mhz 1:1 stock timings.
Now to stress test the hell out of it.
Id still like another 100Mhz if my temps hold out.

Start a guide on the 9070XT as its soon to be next.
Thanks guys really, I couldnt have gotten this far without you.

Now to stress test the hell out of it.

So, you jumped right into both, again. If it's your intent to ignore what you said you were going to do, then cool.

If not, let me clarify....

You need to make sure your CPU is stable... I don't know what your idea is of stable, but before I'd move on to RAM I'd make sure you get two hours out of it.... whatever you want, that's just me.

That said, once I found that stable, I'd STILL GO BACK TO STOCK and work on the RAM alone. Once the RAM tests stable for a couple of hours, THEN I'd enable the CPU tweaks and stress test both.

As it stands, if something went wrong, you'd still have no idea what caused the problem.

How are you going to know what the error is and why?

You'll know it ****** up, but why.

I use manual settings, not mobo.

Figure out the most power it can pull and set your curve to that.

The opposite of how people say to use the curve.

 

[deathstar13]

I ran a few tests for stability and temp control and then went back in and added my last know ram settings that worked. From previous testing this ram wont budge past what is stated on the box.
Yes im doing this wrong, BUT if i do get an error i can go back and do as told. So far no errors and i put the smack down on Elcos CB R23 score.
I cant go higher on the cpu unless i can undervolt it as it hangs at 90-91C and even popped 95.5C once.
I understand the way im doing this isnt the scientific way but a short cut, But i can always go back and easily find whats causing the issue. ill be stress testing these settings for days.

Go back to bios and open Curve Optimizer...first try -20 on both CCD's to see what the results are.

 

[freeagent]

I run PBO advanced, manual, PPT 280, TDC 180, EDC 200, +200MHz, all core -28.

That should get you up to my level.. maybe.

 

[deathstar13]

Just ran a Cinebench and got 33760 so im on the right track.
Ill try Elcos curve optimizer and bench it and then reset my bios and attempt what freeagent said.

Can you guys tell me what the changes you suggest do? and yes ill back my memory off to attempt these settings.

 

[67Elco]

No need to reset anything...just make your changes and save/exit.

 

[deathstar13]

not sure what results to look for on this one, But is staying stable under Prime 95

Edit. I found the FSB and messing with it and memory speeds since it multiplies those setting.
I believe i just surpassed your score and im going back in and pushing a bit more. Temps be crazy, If they were ingame temps id be looking for a new AIO that can handle 350W+

 

[67Elco]

See post # 335...screw the memory **** for now.

See post # 335...screw the memory **** for now.

You Photshopped that score man, I can see the pixels! honestly my cpu would melt being pushed that hard.
Im taking it 1 more Mhz up and done.

Unless you know where i can grab a few more Mhz?

 

[67Elco]

 

[deathstar13]

dang man thats high, You gotta show me more later pls.
I went back and took off the FSB oc'ing as im getting "Performance test" hanging in one spot. so im just running my stock 6400Mhz and your settings.
It hangs in the same spot everytime so next i go to jedec specs on the ram and start retesting, I think its the cpu is the issue.
Cinebench and Prime run fine with no errors.
I think my ram may do 6600Mhz 1:1 as i had it close but my fsb wasnt upto the task.

 

[67Elco]

That's all I'm doing on this air cooler. Time to put this back in game mode lol.



Think my HWINFO may be glitched out...

 

[deathstar13]

how are you getting your clocks so high?
It says 4.4ghz but ive had 4.45Ghz and still be 200 point under you.

 

[freeagent]

You guys have inspired me to tune a little more. Gotta work on my MC score a bit..

 

[deathstar13]

Everything seems on par as to what im getting, Except that 36k score is awesome. I gotta find the settings that let me OC more than 200Mhz
