5700X overheating

PerCore-1-5950X_575px.png


Handy graph above, showing core scaling on a 5950X and power requirements at different clock rates.

We can see that a package power of around 135w on an 8 core CPU should result in clock rates of 4.6ghz.

That chart makes no sense. Whats package power of 16 cores at 5ghz?

Scratch that it makes sense now that chart is for single core power consumption not entire cluster
 
so i have now done a small tinker with my 5700x with -30 on the curve optimizer in bios
and no pbo thats just on auto.
these are my time spy scores and my cinebench scores what do you guys think?

cinebench r23 multi core score 14176

Time spy

Graphics score 20147

cpu score 11168


Locrieth can you also try running your 5700x again..
or anyone else with a 5700x just to compare thanks :)

I'm not sure if the CPU score is necessarily a good way to judge performance in real applications / games.

If you run the CPU-Z benchmark, what clock rates do you see on each core (in Speccy)?
 
Sounds OK to me. If you are happy with the performance in games / whatever, leave it like that.

I'd be trying to get all cores to remain at 4.6ghz, if you still have some headroom in terms of the total amount of package power used.
 
Got my 5700X yesterday, most BIOS options on Auto, not really tweaked much at all, highest temps i get are 69-70 in Cinebench R20 (not installed R23 yet) and all the cores hit 4650Mhz at some point. I dont have much for benchmarks installed right now but will come back with some scores in a few days if i get time. Pretty impressed with this, when i use the Windows Power Save plan for just browsing the net etc i get low temps down to 27c.. nice chip this :)
 
nice brainz looking forward to comparing with everyone else that has a 5700x.
i dont really ever see my clock freq going up to 4650 in all honesty mostly highest it stays is around 4400 -4490
 
Did a little playing around earlier, downloaded Ryzen Master and decided to run the Curve Optimizer.

Heres my results from Cinebench R23, added some HWINFO64 Stats so you guys can let me know if all looks ok. Ran Time Spy a couple of times and been using my PC all afternoon and evening, seems stable so far.

Hitting 4750Mhz on some cores now :)

@locrieth, have you tried PBO Enabled then use a negative offset voltage? I used -0.1000v like i did with my 3900X and it brings temps down quite a bit without too much perf loss.
 
So I've picked one up now for my SFF build as the 5900 just couldn't stretch it's legs properly and let off so much heat it was unreal in the Q58.

Tonight I've been messing about and clocked the 5700X @ 1.2V, All Core 4.6Ghz.

R20: 6026
R23: 15385

Temperature wise full load I'm maxing out at around 72C but this case is a bit of a hot box despite a 240 AIO (seem that the top panel just heats up to some crazy level which doesn't help). In game however it is reaching nowhere near that and usually between the high 50's/low 60's. I'll monitor it over the next few days but its seems absolutely solid right now.

Nice, i was thinking about doing an all core overclock but wanted to see how it goes letting AMD do it for me first :)

Does this drop the core speeds down and do the volts drop down when not running games or anything and what are your idle temps?

I use Windows Power Save when im not doing anything heavy, saves a lot of energy and temps go down into the high 20's.

So it's a weird one with AMD I find, it just pushes too many volts through for me in an SFF build (fluctuates way too much) and I know there's negative offsets on PBO etc I can try but they generally don't see much on an impact in this build.

Sticking to an all core Voltage and clock speed seems to work ok on Ryzen for me. Temps are usually around 40 idle, 45-50 with a bit of light work and only ramping up temp wise during proper activity. It's typically sitting at anywhere between 30-40w unless gaming. When benching and using all cores 100% it's hitting a max 101W.

Thanks for the info on that, are you using speedstep or global c states with this overclock or would that bring instability? If its possible to use these then i might give it a try, i like a very quiet PC when its idling :)

Literally all I've done is left everything in default bar the memory profile and then 46x ratio and 1.2v.
