MY build and all the benchmark numbers

[67Elco]

Yep - Having the zero fan disabled I find that for no reason it gets enabled again from time to time.

 

[deathstar13]

The program dont launch at start up and many times when you do enable it its reset to default.
Its no biggy really as i dont game as much as most here so i can just enable it and i have the profile saved.
EartDog ill look threw that thread and see if i can get some answers.

Heck if i forget to do it i only stand to loose 6FPS per my systems testing.
Im slowly running out of things to OC and maximize, Im gonna need some new toys when i get paid.

Id really like to get a raid card that holds 4 NVME gen4 drives and Raid 0 them, but its a waste of money.
I am considering a DIY H2O system tho. Id really like to drop my temps 20C as of now 90-95C is the norm benchmarking.

 

[deathstar13]

Seems like, curiously, there isn't an option(?).

Here's what google said though - https://community.amd.com/t5/pc-dri...ing-with-windows-11/m-p/601057/highlight/true

EDIT: Though if you scrolll down through the comments, it should start up/have that option??

I found the preferences button to have it start in the tray, But i had that turned on before.
Ill figure it out or jsut do it manually, No biggy. Thanks for the help man!

You won't find any miracles there.

Dang, I suppose its no big deal as i can stay under 95C in stress tests but its borderline.
So id say 99% of the time my temps are fine. im gonna game some tonight and can see how my temps look on my CPU and my GPU OC.
My case setup keeps my GPU nice and cool as i have 3x 120mm case fans blowing fresh air directly into my GPU. and i set a higher fan curve to help also.

Yep. We covered that in these threads already.



You'll see an improvement, likely of a couple/few C, but you won't see close to 20C without.....................wait for it.................... you've heard it before.............................know what it is.........................


.......de-lidding.


If you remember, I mentioned that the problem isn't 'enough radiator' or performance of your loop, but thermal density in the dies (on top of the solder + IHS combo).

 

[deathstar13]

Yup i remember that conversation well. I sent my delidder unopened back to Amazon, These organic cpu package bends too much and will crack a die easily, I like the old porcelain style they had on thunderbirds.
When i stopped OC'ing Intel just had come out with their new heat spreaders, and they really sucked.
Whats a worthwhile addition to my system as i need new toys now?

MEH. You watch too many jenky videos.

Using it is a worthwhile addition.

That was my observation only. But yes i do watch too many misleading and wrong video's

I use my PC more than 12 hours a day, Just not gaming much like i want. I live online mainly and would go nuts without the net.
TBH i would like a larger case

 

[67Elco]

Just got the bencher liquid cooled...as you can see it will not prevent those temps.

 

[Janus67]

Man I think that fan may be overcompensating for something!

Optical illusion...it's just a 120mm. The bracket will accept a 140mm though.

 

[deathstar13]

yes im sure you and Earthdog are right. a larger H20 system would just take longer to saturate before the temps matched mine.
I suppose ill take what i got and be happy as it is fast as heck anyhow.
Im just thinking and looking for new projects to keep me occupied.

Play MOAR games onthat awesome rig and stop messing with it for a bit. Any project will still be a project when you get to it.

Im gonna try and play CP77 if i dont get too drunk tonight. Im just enjoying my sound system right now.
I actually do use it as a computer and do alot of online things. My gaming needs to pick up tho.

I just enjoy keeping my hands and mind busy, So much so i dont even watch tv or movies.
Ive upgraded every darn laptop i have, To bad you cant do9 much with an iPad pro.

 

[deathstar13]

Just an update as i did some gaming tonight and put this 9070XT threw its paces.
No benchmarrks just observations.
I played CyberPunk 2077 with my OC on the card and used no upscaling and all settings on high/Ultra in 4K output
Most cases it was 50+ FPS and mostly in the 70's
granted i paid scalper prices but i feel i still got my moneys worth.

Im so glad i didnt invest in Nvidia as i feel they have thier heads up thier arses.
Similiter performance would have cost me much more than my scalpers prices from NVidia.
Back in my beginners' days i wouldn't touch an ATI card if you gave it to me as the drivers would make you insane.

On the game i enjoyed playing CP77 alot. Story line and then FPS made it enjoyable, I dislike constant battle without breaks. A well done game imo.
I will miss MMO gaming against others in game but there are enough of them out there i can go play those.

 

[deathstar13]

My intarwebs have been down but thanks to GOG they dont require a connection to play.
I played many hours of CP2077 as i had nothing else to do and my CPU temps stayed in the high 70's and 60C was the max on my oced 9070xt.
What i did notice was ram usage, 16GB dont cut it no more as i was using 21GB of ram and add in background services im sure i was close to 30GB
i played on 4K and all settings on high and ultra as well as FSR or what ever AMD calls it and with ray Tracing on and i stayed above 50fps

Amazon finished my return on the 4TB gen4 T500 and in the process they have 2TB sticks with heatsinks for $149 each which was $10 cheaper than a bare T500 4TB so i have 2 coming tomorrow.
I think my PC is built,stable and fully operational. But dang was a struggle at times. Something tells me ill raid those two drives for giggles. It should put me close to Gen5 speeds. But ill believe it when i see it.
I must have also hit the silicone lottery as i was able to increase my FSB too 101GHz and get 6464Mhz 1:1 but in doing so it slows the CPU a bit so im leaving it at 6400Mhz 1:1

Just look at task manger... shows how much memory is in use. You don't have to guess. Typically, with several Chrome tabs up, one streaming Hulu or Twitch and playing a game, I've seen over 25GB.

That said, 32GB is the new 16GB, without a doubt.

 

[deathstar13]

i wasnt guessing the 21GB being used in game and rivatuner showed it. Being in 4K may not have helped. My GB amount may have been high but i got the exact specs from my ram i was wanting 6400Mhz 1:1

 

[EarthDog]

So... was it 21GB or 30GB? Because, you said something about background processes like whatever you were looking at didn't show it.

....as i was using 21GB of ram and add in background services im sure i was close to 30GB

WYSIWYG in most applications. There aren't any background services to add as they are counted in what you see.
