    Best AMD CPU for this board?

    The best among supported cpus are 6 core phenoms II. Just check that list and see what you can find here: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M2N68AM_PLUS/HelpDesk_CPU/ Look for phenoms II 6 and 4 core or 3 core athlons II. Once i had athlon II x435 and was able to unlock it to phenom II x4 B35...

    2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

    Really, i'm providing details in initial posts to avoid redundant questions so seeing such question after providing details is disappointing, don't you think so? how would YOU feel in such situation? I will rephrase what i wrote in my first post of this thread: Usually temps on gaming load are...

    2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

    I just checked and during encoding in handbrake hwinfo shows max cpu clock was at 4300MHz on three out of eight available cores, all other cores were topping 4275MHz. When I'm benchmarking something in some games afterburner's osd shows sometimes clock jumping up to 4350MHz on almost all cores...

    2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

    Also i took a look now into fan settings in bios and there are 4 or 5 profiles. I'm running default one which is named "standard", for a moment i enabled "performance mode" and this one even while in bios already was noticeably audible to say the least. I will keep it on standard.

    2700x temps

    Seems to be normal, especially with wraith prism cooler. Look at my thread i created today: https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/2700x-95-degrees-while-encoding-with-handbrake.18848023/

    Asrock x470 taichi ultimate here and this mobo by default has offset set to -100mV.

    2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

    My head is in range 0,5-1m from case. I'm not worried in long term as such load i'm getting only while video encoding and this is not something i do few times per day but more like once per few days or even more rare and with power of this cpu encoding doesn't take long.

    2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

    https://imgur.com/OueeLl0 It became a bit louder on that load but i would call it slightly audible, definitely nothing even close to loud or annoying.

    2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

    Well, at 100% fan speed i would probably hear it. I keep it on stock and never heard it at all, even at full load of cpu wraith prism's fan is really silent. The only fan i hear in my pc is on gpu while gaming. On cpu fan definitely never goes to 100% of its speed.

    Well, cpu cooler is waaay more quiet than my gpu, imo it is very silent as even under heavy load i do not hear it. No, i do not think i have any extra sensors in case. Case is some basic crap, i keep it with a side opened.

    2700x 95 degrees while encoding with handbrake

    Yesterday i was encoding a video and out of curiosity checked cpu's temperatures while doing so. I'm running this cpu without overclock and with stock wraith prism cooler xfr&pbo enabled. Encoding in handbrake utilizes all cores and threads at 100% which is normal and expected but one thing i...

    Best RAM for AMD Zen 2?

    In case you if you mean zen refresh a.k.a. ryzen 2xxx series a lot of issues with ram have been fixed but still it is not easy. Definitely on ram's manufacturer website check if ram is compatible with ryzen platform or amd's 3xx/4xx chipset series. For the best possible performance go with 3000...

    8GB or 16GB for gaming?

    8GB nowadays only if you need to cheap because of low budget, 16GB is what gamers should be aiming for. There is more and more games utilizing more than 8GB easily so ram would become bottleneck if you would go with "just" 8GB. Also as Firejack already said, having gpu with "just" 4GB of vram...

    32GB for Ryzen - what's the current story?

    I recently upgraded my hardware with asrock x470 taichi ultimate and g.skill 3000MHz cl16 32GB (2x16GB) and so far so good. 3000MHz i get by xmp profile (on some motherboards can be labeled as d.o.c.p.) but because it was the cheapest ram i could get it is some hynix cfr and i was unable to get...

    How to determine memory type for ryzen dram calculator?

    At the moment i'm messing a bit and trying to overclock my ram, so far i was able to get it to 3166MHz at stock timings (16-18-18-18-38). Anything higher ends up with instability on various levels. This made me think i could use ryzen dram calculator but i do not know my memory type, all i know...

    Ryzen 2700x + Radeon R9 380 - keep old psu or buy new one?

    I see i'm not the only one using 2700(x) with r9 380 ;-) There are three main reasons why i consider switch over to other psu: age of my current one, maybe its components are a bit wear off. Also cpu was just a part of incremental upgrade and i'm going to upgrade gpu as well at some point and...

    Ryzen 7 2700x OC vs XFR, is OC worth it?

    https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/ROG_STRIX_X470-I_GAMING/E14353_ROG_STRIX_X470-I_GAMING_UM_V2_WEB.pdf Page 65, it is labeled as D.O.C.P. IMO your motherboard's bios is weird in placement of options and labeling them.
