Yeah I’ve not turned expo on yet
7800X3D gaming build(no fancy name)
- Thread starter fowler002
- Start date
How come? You've updated the bios I assume so no reason not to? You can set voltages yourself if you are that worried about it?
My other thought was maybe it didn't like the ram but if it's base timings I don't think it would cause that?
I’ve not dived back into the bios since installing windows, will probably get around to it t some point in the near future.
ive not run cinebench but id say yes as your timespy cpu score is 1500 below my stock expo cpu score

Ultrawide monitor.
Good guess, I'm voting the same way, my xtx nitro was 1079 and my monitor was 999
Close(or not so close but nice guess) but no cigar, I bought the Alienware AW3423DWF back in March which started this whole foray in to an expensive pc build.

I’ve been reluctant to seeing the issues with the cpu/motherboard dying, going to wait a bit before I do it.
Well I turned expo on and reran the tests(well not run the single core test on cinebench yet, will do it and update here later).
Only a couple hundred more with expo, found a post on Reddit where people said they got ~18000 then when they updated to the (at the time) latest bios the score dropped a bit to ~17000.
Edit: ran the single core cinebench test, will rerun both tests after updating to the 1616 bios.

Same mobo and cpu as you :
Time spy ( cpu score ) 13232 - so same as yours really
Cinebench 17800 - a lot more than yours.
Strange that it differs.

I’m on 1602 hadn’t checked agin till you just mentioned it, will update it later and see if that does anything.
First off, very nice build. 
Have you rotated the display on the Z63 yet?
You should be able to do this in the CAM software.

Yes I’ve done it, seems the cam software/having dual infographic causes higher “idle” temps. Was getting 40-60c(usually low 50) on the desktop, not having the cam software running/single infographic gives in the 40s. Still need to peel of the plastic from the screen on the pump, was running cinebench single tread test in the picture below.First off, very nice build.
