AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

[chrcoluk]

Thats what most people expect when undervolting, but apparently on AMD new CPUS (and GPUs) there is a new system that just throttles back performance if it senses volts are not enough. So do check performance before and after applying undervolt

Interesting, so in future on AMD tech I will monitor clocks/performance like a hawk when underclocking to make sure they stable.

Still it doesnt mean undervolting will definitely cause that, if the cpu can handle it then it will be the same as before lower temps and potential more performance.

Any ideas when more 3900x stock will be in?

Ditto.

Supposed to be this week, but so far no one from OCUK is able to confirm exactly when. Other suppliers seem to be in the same situation.

 

[Minstadave]

3700X arrived. That'll do me until Sept.

Seems some b450 boards have got pcie4 enabled on m.2 ports. O_o

 

[pcfarrar]

Many thanks, are you simply running it stock or have you played with the bios. Also what all core boost do you get, I am tempted now to only get the 3700X as I don't think I will benefit from the 3800X.
I currently have a 2600 with 16gb ram running at 3200 so I am hopeful I can just plug and play at the same ram speeds.

I'm running mostly stock settings, I've manually tweaked the RAM timings a little that's all.

Just ran a few benches with CPU-Z. All core boost 4.15GHz and single core 4.39GHz.

AMD promised to kill that in future bios releases

yep thats funny.

oh we need these 8 layers and super expensive boards, then vendor enables it on last gen budget board, amd is like ok lets disable it in bios.

Many thanks, that will do me, just ordered a 3700x as its in stock. should do me for a couple of years

Well, yeah, I mean it does sort of invalidate buying an X570 doesn't it. There's no way they intended for that to happen.

Asus has an official support list, don’t think AMD have won that battle.

 

[willhub]

Asus is annoying, still no update for B350F for the Destiny 2 bug.

Dont think any company does yet

They need to hurry I'm getting withdrawal symptoms

For me its only been 1 day, I play PvP 90% of the time and I dont to lose my aim :/

Is it normal for my 3800x to constantly run at 4.32 to 4.34ghz all cores when idle just sat on desktop with nothing open? also showing a average of 1.45 volts for cpu? this is in hwinfo

i have not changed anything in the bios other than memory profile. 4.34 is an overclock sure for all cores? im confused lol

Ive seen that happen to mine

 

[brightside229]

Ive seen that happen to mine

but i thought all core was 3.9ghz max and then anything over is single core? Its just annoying me as my temps seem higher than they should be, average of 48dg and keeps shooting up to 56dg making my fans spin higher

Can you trust task manager to give an accurate boost figure?
