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

[Minstadave]

The 3800x is just a 3700x it's not going to be much different than a 100mhz higher 3700. It's nothing special

Its TDP is a fair bit higher though. Must be holding all core clocks surely.

But when overclocking it seems the TDP doesn't really matter as 3700 can exceed this, and due to the lack of headroom on these chips it doesn't seem to matter much.

Got my ryzen 3700x running on my c7 hero, but only a single mouse I have works in the bios and no keyboard. So, I'm currently running at 3200mhz memory at cl22 because I can't adjust any numbers.

Someone tell Asus to get their act together

That looks really good, good ornament that Ryzen box, very stylish

Ryzen has unmatched aesthetics.

Time to hamfist her into a 10 year old case

Anyone know if a 3900X is two 6 core CCXs or an 8 and a 4?

Technically it is two CCDs (chiplets), each composed of two 3-core CCXs. So there are four 3-core CCXs.

So what the hell is PMU training in the BIOS and should it be on or off? Also struggling to find the IMC voltage in the ASRock BIOS, any ideas?

PMU training: AKA IMC training.

Just got my 3700X going to see how it compares against my 2900X! Can confirm Hairbos where also found within the package!

Seems like 3800x's do exit

Nope they don't

(Your picture isn't working)

4.45 unstable, retreated after 1.47v, attacking from digi vrm side

What is the safe 24/7 VCore?

I had no haribo, but as I can't stand the things I'll consider that a win rather than a snub

If you even tried Prime at 4.3 your screen would suddenly go black and PC start I bet, or possibly explode.

Don't use power bug software like Prime95, they put a massively unrealistic load on the CPU.

What is the safe 24/7 VCore?

1.40v should be max really.

 

[humbug]

1.40v should be max really.

Thank you

What is the safe 24/7 VCore?

According to FIT, the safe voltage levels for the silicon are around 1.325V in high-current loads

According to Stilt, AMD all-core safe limit is 1.325V

Ok, two different numbers.

I'll post back if he get's back to me, that's Robert Hallock of AMD https://twitter.com/Thracks?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author

I always use the X264 encode test on loop, might be a bit old hat now but mind you.
