Because of currency rates certainly not because of greed or anything nefarious
I recall seeing Youtubers say the price would have dropped by now, turns out it's increased by over 20%
Most likely due to no stock still, once its back in stock and available more often it may drop
Heh I read his post and then gave it a whirl. it works and is easy enough to besides one thing. It doesn;t clock down that much. So now mine runs at either idling at 4850mhz or going HAM at 5600mhz posted about it to matt and he had the same thing as well. Lulz
I kind of like the efficiency of this PBO 'overclock'. But inevitably I'll end up using ECLK, chasing that extra 4% performance and be stuck in HAM mode like you guys.
It can go beyond that. That's just teh tip of the iceberg. Is it worth it? not really. Is it lulz and fun hell yes
Make sure to tell us how far you make it
No I am not using AF mate

I have found random frame drops in VR when trying to tighten up my RAM.
have you tried manually doing the settings? I manually set mine. I don't use Expo or XMP. Seeming as I know what the primary timings are i input them in, then I put in a cookier cutter secondary timing that helps with tigtening up the timings whihc helps with latency and makes just that little bit snappier. So out of the box my me was 80ns using expo. Then I input them manually and that dropped it to 78ns. Then I followed a youtube guide for Hynix based Ram and just literally copy the values. It is a more conservative values. you could tighten it up further. This dropped it 70ns. Not the lowest but still slight improvement.

Now I'm more amped to overclock that 5080 FE I have my eyes on...Tbh I am gonna wind it back to normal levels. It works fine and it been a blast. But I have other tinkering projects that need my attention. I can't wait to get my hands on the 9950x3d. 9800x3d is sooooooo 2024...
What gfx card ?
4090. Obviously this is just the main CPU heavy area, but those severe dips made it incredibly janky walking around in that section. Much better now.
I have not tried manual timings. Most of the videos I have seen cover 32GB kits. I'm guessing that 64gb kits are harder on the memory controller.
