AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

Does the 9800x3d need any tweaks to get it to boost to max frequency?

For example with my 5800x3d I applied an easy -15 negative on the co to get it to boost to max all core frequency.

Does the 9800x3d need the same thing?

I just want a simple noob friendly overclock to get the most from the chip.

You are upgrading?

Don't forget to upgrade to a 5080 as well:p

Yah just do that and their will be a core over ride function. Slap it on +200 mhz. -15 is a good starting point. -20 is a viable one as well. Going in at -25 or -30 is what all tech influencers say but there is always variance amongst cpu's.
 
It absolutely was a thing, it was well documented inside and outside of AMD. If you go back and look at Gamers Nexus launch review of the 7800X3D, it was mentioned there by AMD as a known issue. However, it did get fixed sometime back (Can't recall exactly but I'll say in the region of 3-6 months back) via a silent OS update. That update meant that you could move between parts and not get a performance penalty, therefore no longer having to reinstall the OS for optimal performance. It's a good thing as it was far from ideal tbf. Sometime back, BIOS options were introduced to allow control over this functionality (forcing workloads to one CCD) in the BIOS, but that always required a system restart so the software solution was preferred, if not a bit more prone to potential issues relating to other software such as the OS/Gamebar/Chipset etc.
That's good to know as I have a 7950x3d I want to play with. If I had to reinstall windows it was gonna be a hard pass and sit only on my table with other stuff to tinker with.
 
Will there be new mobo released along with the 9950x3d?

most manufacturer's released their x800 series boards already when Ryzen 9000 series cpu released few months ago. There might be one or two more boards released but most are already here, I think Asus is to release an extreme version of the x870E board, nothing else I am aware of.

Installed it all yesterday. Haven’t had a chance yet to play with it though.

Wont be upgrading GPU. The way I see it I will be on the 4080 now until the 6000 series.

Other than a 4090 or 5090 nothing to upgrade too.

So two years.

I'll give it a go.

Is 4.94GHz normal all core 100% on a stock 9800x3d?

What should it achieve with a gentle undervolt?

I see online people claim the CPU boosts to 5.2GHz out of the box.

Mine doesn’t!

If you don’t use a negative offset you can still apply the core override +200

That will give you 5.2ghz straight away.

I put all core offset at -20 without any other tweaks and it immediately reduced full load temps from 85-86 to 70-72 without any drop in performance. I'm very impressed.
Perhaps I might increase clock speeds, what's the best way to do that? The BIOS (I'm using Asus TUF B650+) has like three or four different options, because of the boost clock mode. It's rather confusing to me.
