Just wondering if anyone else can verify, I dropped my SOC voltage in BIOS to 1.08v. The bios reports 1.11v but all monitoring tools in windows, including Ryzen Master reports it as 1.2V. It never seems to change either and is the only v that...
I have to finally admin defeat, I have no idea how PBO functions or what settings produce a good result. I messed with every setting and nothing seemed to change. The only setting that had any repeatable effect is curve optimisation.
BCLK...
Just tinkering to see the difference. My card seems rock solid at 3030mhz with the bump. If I push any higher it drops back to that clock anyway.
I'm seeing 520W with limit set to 133% so around 80W over the 'just under 450w' reported above...
I just found out that us late 4090 purchasers are punished by a 1070mv core limit. Earlier cards had a 1100mv limit.
Flashed my card, a Gigabyte Aero OC 24G using nvflashk to a Gigabyte Gaming OC 24G (BIOS dated October 22 from Techpowerup). I...
That was me.
This was after flushing with hot vinegar, round two was caustic soda. In the bucket is the caustic soda flush. I'll put it in spoiler tags becuase it could induce trauma.
I loaded up some timespy results if anyone is interested in the difference between stock and lapped IHS, as well as Thermal Grizzly vs Noctua NT-H1. Fan and pump speeds should be fairly consistent between runs. I haven't tried running higher fans...
It doesn't increase flow rate unless you have heavy flow restriction. Running dual D5's doubles head pressure but flow rate remains the same. Two blocks and three radiators isn't really enough to create a noticable drop in flow rate for a single...
I don't know how much flow is restricted but there is no way it would be a 1 PSI drop. There is a pretty large surface area there. If you blow through it you can't feel any restriction at all and when I primed my pumps as usual I didn't notice...
Coolant is EK Cryofuel clear. Like I said, I bought a fuel filter and driled a hole through it. I just shoved it over the inlet pipe, works great.
Just ran Timespy and got my best result. GPU temp went from (average) 56C to 49C. That is pretty...
My loop was filthy so I spent the weekend cleaning it up. I built this system at the end of last year but for what ever reason my loop was contaminated after my previous attempt to clean it (which was the second attempt).
I took the opportunity...
Percentages don't say a whole lot, what RPM are you running your fans at?
I'm running my 120mm Vardars at 585rpm and my 140mm Noctuas at 792rpm. Dropping the fans speeds lower than this doesn't seem to make any difference to fan noise. I changed...
I've been running prime95 all night and it peaked at 83C over night. It is sitting on average of 77-78C.
The reason I wanted to lap the CPU was the wild occassional spikes. The way I set up my fan curve meant that my fans were ramping while...
