    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Just want to point out that both of these are important measures. Frame-time could show irregularities that are hidden under or over the measure of fps since frametime can be measured per frame while fps, by nature of the unit, is a moving average. I'll see if I can get fraps to work and run...

    can we talk about water chillers please?!

    I'm not familiar with that one, but if the specs I see are correct they do 1050 L\h and 4.4m of head pressure. A D5 is 1500 and 3.9m, but two D5s in series will double the head pressure(7.8m) and have the same flow(1500 L\h).

    can we talk about water chillers please?!

    Only want to add, radiators will add heat if water temperature in the radiators drop below ambient air temp. I would think loop order here could be of high importance depending on the outlet water temp of the chiller you pick. For flow rates, I found this article...

    Binning my 2 3900x chips

    I notice your CCD 2 on Chip 2 appears to be inline with CCD 1 and 2 from Chip 1 for temperatures. Maybe CCD 1 on Chip 2 is bringing that chip down? Those voltages seem in line with those speeds - in general. Definitely seems like you'd need further thermal headroom to really know what you've...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    I patched to version 49922 from 48249. Everything appears as it is going to work, but the game crashes when attempting to load the session. Everything else as it comes with the game seems to still work.

    Binning my 2 3900x chips

    My 3900X seemed to respond nicely to some extra voltage (and cooling!) Personally, the ROI got bad after 1.38V, squeezed another ~50Mhz stable after getting to 1.416V (@80C!!). Dipped my toe in 1.42+ and got nothing much out of it. LLC was 'Turbo' in Aorus Master which is 3rd out of 5...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    I'll get that patch installed when I get home, if you can share that dynamic benchmark (google drive ought to work), I'll get frameview going so we get that apples to apple test. I can declock to 3.0 later, I'm guessing the fps will be around 25. If you want a direct clock for clock comparison...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Thank you, this is so much better. Focusing on the data is great. The high error and the change in direction is what was driving me to say there was a lack of a clear answer. I've settled in on a pretty good overclock. 4.525 on fastest CCX, lowest made it to 4.4 and the rest are in between...

    New build, help. 3k budget(WoT inside)

    While I wouldn't bet on it, it is possible the overclock the Fclk to maintain 1:1 on higher bandwidth memory. Mine went to 1900 with a single click no problem. Here's what I've got

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    This was not my intention, if taken out of context that would be mis-characterized, but we've only been talking about one game and one synthetic test for days now, so I believe that you're nitpicking here. Here is a summary of data, 2600k 24 32M SPI 411.077s. TS12 - 32FPS...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    You state this as gospel, yet we have some data points from this very thread that support this theory and some that don't. That's my entire problem here.

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    I also had G-sync enabled on my tests. If we had frameview across the board surely that would only serve to increase the accuracy of results. It is worth noting, the in-game video settings also play a large role in forcing the game to be CPU bound, but it's still not rocket science.

    FWIW, I did my testing while the train was stationary.

    3950x watercooled temp issue.... please come in

    I wouldn't go as far to say pointless, but yeah Custom loops are hardly ever a "need". I do plan on adding a waterblocked 2080ti in short order which will better use that capacity. I'm also a fan of the silence, it's all packed into an R6 case. I did almost go with noctua-12s, saving the...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Oh wow. Okay ... lets be honest here. Are we posting here to pass time/argue or figure something out? Personally I think going into the future, if you're still playing TS12 you're going to need to bench the actual game to know if newer and newer CPUs will beat your Sandy Bridge. But...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Yes correct (though with the cursor placement issue I saw, we may want re-verify) I believe this is ultimately the conclusion here.

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Hold on, correct me if I'm wrong: Based on the original argument you reasoned that AMD/9th Gen Intel would not perform better in TS12 because SuperPi scores are not better than sandy bridge. Our differing SuperPi scores - SB ~400s vs AMD ~500s If I hadn't tested the game you would have...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Yep his is even faster at 5.0 I'd guess roughly right in there with the Ryzen 2nd gen at 4.2 in games if I had to guess. Much of the Ryzen 3rd gen reviews have the same Rzyen 2nd gen at 4.2 on the charts so you can get a good idea where good old sandy is still hanging out.

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Declocked to 3.6, everything else the same. Looked like it was holding steady on 30. I moved the mouse it jumped to 32. I determined that when the mouse is over menus I have 32, over anything else 30. I reverted back to old settings ran the test again. Similar problem, 36 with the cursor...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    Yup I double checked, same result twice. By inconsequential I mean to say I don't think you can really draw a conclusion either way. AMD did lose in the SuperPI by a nice margin. Could be the difference in memory spec, it's hard to know.

    3950x watercooled temp issue.... please come in

    Alright so for comparison's sake, keep in mind I haven't got any real overclock, just PBO, RAM at 3800c14, FCLK at 1900. In Aida Extreme (CPU, FPU, cache) I'm averaging 1.23 Vcore 1.075 SoC and 4.04Ghz at 73C over the course of about 10 minutes. It hops right on up to 70 in the matter of a...

    Riddle me this: Better IPC?

    I could give it a go on a 3900X / 1080 later tonight. Looks like its still $2.50 on amazon, I can throw the code into steam. I think its very possible that performance in this one benchmark could correlate to performance in TS12, but I also think the differing quantities of CPU utilization...

    New build, help. 3k budget(WoT inside)

    Lol got me. :D Yeah I overstated the difference really, if money were no object the 3960X + 2080ti is the king. It's really only better in the sense that it comes with the better GPU OPs only stated use was for gaming, and while a 1060 might have him covered for those specific games/frames...

    3950x watercooled temp issue.... please come in

    Just got my build together yesterday - 3900x with copper Heatkiller 4, Alphacool 420x45 + 280x60 + EK D5 - so sorta similar. I don't think I saw any issues like what you're describing, but I'll run aida when I get home to compare. The only "weird" thing I noticed - I had a leftover burr from...

    New build, help. 3k budget(WoT inside)

    X570 all the way. Better at games than TR and paired with 2080ti - no brainer. With TR you'll end up over budget because you're going to buy a more powerful GPU sooner rather than later. Also, you'll probably need a different cooling solution for TR. I just built my 3900x system with that...

    First Build inyears (guidance please)

    If you're going with that cooler, I'd stick with the stock wraith and save the money. Maybe put it into a rx 580.

    3900x high temps

    Something to look for ... I just picked up my 3900x and I noticed that there was what felt like a left-over burr from manufacture or an anomaly from nickel plating all along the edge on two adjacent sides. It would catch on your fingernail and felt like those edges needed be 'broken' with...
