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

[opethdisciple]

The PBO settings in the BIOS confuse me. Can someone put together a super quick guide to getting the most out of it?

I usually turn PBO on but leave everything at auto. Last night I tried setting the speed it boosts additionally to 200MHz. But left everything else auto.

Absolutely no idea if this makes a difference.

What's the PBO scaler stuff about?

Its been 5 days and nobody tried undervolting or manual bclk overclock?

Why is that? Are you suggesting that any RAM will hit Ryzen sweetspot of 3600-3733MHz?
What about tightening timings after that? Tuning secondary and tertiary timings will improve performance
If 1.5V is safe (which it is), and there is performance to be had (and improving Ryzens main weakness, latency), why shouldn't you do that?

Because from all peoples results so far it seems excessive and I bet the timings/settings are just off rather than it needing loads more voltage.

Waiting for the Taichi?

Gigabyte Aorus Ultra, "should" be delivered tomorrow, we'll see.

[Yaayuh!]

Indeed.
I've never gained anything past 1.425v for memory on Zen and Zen+. I've seen heat become more an issue on RAM than requirement for more voltage.

Did anyone get there 3 month game pass?

Yes i got a email when my order dispatched.

@Gibbo, chances of getting a 3900X today when you get stock if you haven't pre-ordered?

Another comparison

A 3700X can't boost to 4.3GHz. I've seen a 3600 do that.

1.5V for DDR4 seems a bit high for everyday use if you ask me.

Can people with 3700x please post idle/load temps and what cooler they are using please?

I'm waiting for the Aorus Master, mines "supposed" to be delivered tomorrow too. Just hoping their stock arrives today!

Just checked the tracking this morning and much to my surprise it says my 3700x has arrived at the depot this morning at 6:14am. So I am defiantly going to try and pick it up tomorrow morning.

I just checked my tracking and it's out for delivery today, which obviously isn't the case lol
