Ah ok that makes sense! I'm nearly at the end of my benchmarking and I have managed to improve my scores again

Got a couple more tweaks to try then I'm done.

Stop it, we're dead already!

Missing your 3090?

Sorry @LtMatt I have set myself a target and i'm so close to it now!

3090 what??

That is truly impressive, id love to see a timespy with that setting!

God dammit, just put everything back to defaults!!!!

Corrected an error on the GPU Clock Speeds. Corrected now.

Yep tis a great score tbf.

Impressive.

I think he can do even better too with a bit of CPU tweaking.

Your absolutely right there!!!!

When I get knocked off the top I will revisit it, don't want to peak too early

With Curve Optimizer you might be able to improve your score a little without going manual overclock.

But to breach 42000 points you'll need an all core clock of 4.7Ghz++.

And there's me on half the cores up with the big boys

Don't get too excited me old mucker, scaling is not linear in the CPU test in this bench.

Timespy Extreme is the only test that shows a reasonable benefit above 8 cores.

Here is a quick custom run doing just the Physics test.

All I did was put the multiplier to 47, I have not even got my best memory sticks in the PC and not optimised either.

Shame I have not got a GPU fast enough to benefit.

The excitement died the second I saw 31000 gpu score

I don't think my 5950x is up to it. I will try that tomorrow, did you just use with Auto Vcore of set something manually? I tried using CTR and it only recommended 4.525 at 1.25vcore.

I just leave the Vcore on auto, If I try to set it manually it won't run with clockspeeds above 4.6.

Just tried it on auto and 47 Multiplier and it crashed almost instantly. Went back to the bios screen and said 'CPU temp too high'.

I have to run mine at 1.35v for 4.8ghz all core. 1.365 it crashes and 1.3375 not enough and crashes in Windows
Needs llc on high for the cpu also, or again unstable

My ambitions aren't quite as lofty as you top hitters but I'll humbly take my position back in the top 5.

Not my best graphics score but got the new Phanteks Glacier One 360 cooler for the 5800X:

5800X PBO + 150 Mhz (water)
6900 XT 2705/2150Mhz
21.2.1

SCORE 26757 with AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT(1x) and AMD Ryzen 7 5800X

Graphics Score
29677
Physics Score
30682
Combined Score
13867

Edit: Tightened my RAM timings up a bit; from 18-22-22-41 to 18-19-19-39 which boosted the physics and combined score by 1.8% and overall score by 200 points. Updated the above metrics since they haven't been added to the scoreboard yet.
