I9 9900k

I've noticed :mad: I've set the standby at 1v for now like I did previously. I'll adjust the PLL as you suggest. ty

Edit: @moorhen2 do you know what the default values should be and which pll value I should be adjusting in the bios? There is PLL Termination voltage and then in another tab there are several other PLL values :confused:
I set the CPU Standby voltage to 1.055v, this will default to 1.060v which is the auto default value until you go over 52x multi. You can set this and PLL Termination to 1.1v and forget.
Also have a look in the "tweakers paradise" menu, in there above the "Eventual dram" voltage you will see "PPL Bandwidth", this setting alters the CPU PLL's OC voltage, setting this to Level 0 will give you the "default voltage" of 1.200v for this rail, each level will alter CPU PLL OC voltage, they recommend between Level 6 and 8 for high Ram and CPU frequencies. Hope this helps you.;)

Thank you, that's very helpful
 
Was having a read, apparently Intel are ready to drop a non K 65w 9900 and a 35w 9900T. I’ll be building a SFF HTPC later this year so interested to see how they compare to the 9900k.

will be very fast... if you can cool it down nicely ! also still better off buying Gigabyte UD Z390 then a B360 board due to VRMs being triple of that found on B360/H370 models .

if small factor, Z390 Aorus ITX or asrock
 
I imagine the low power cpus are 9900k units that can't reach the base speed or boost to be sold as such. Presumably they will be cheaper, but no more efficient than a 9900k downclocked and undervolted.

Efficient and powerful for sure, but standard fare low power offerings. If the price isn't decent then there will probably be something ryzen that does the same for less.
 
Temps seem excessive for that load voltage, what are you cooling with ?
RB not showing any temps ?

For some reason Realbench stopped showing temps after a Windows update. I might do a clean windows installation this weekend. Hope it fixes it. I'm using a Corsair H150i 360mm and temps are similar to the Kraken X62 280mm I was using before. Honestly, I'm not impressed with the Corsair, I'll probably delid the CPU and go custom loop.
 

Yep I am. Reluctant to call it a refresh though!

Is the ASUS Z390 in with a shout?

I was wondering the same. Maybe the new KF - non igpu will undervolt and downlock quite nicely. I’ll be using the Dr Zaber Sentry 2.0 when I get it so I’ll save until then and buy something once I’ve seen Ryzen. It’ll be either a low powered CPU with low profile cooler and full length GPU, or higher power CPU with AIO cooler and ITX size GPU.

Aorus is 6 phase design , less amps then asrock which is 60amps over 5 units but thermally better - also UK RMA and support unlike asrock and asus

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £576.07 (includes shipping: £11.10)


asrock do make a good middle ground that would be okay for non overclocked 9900t

Late reply I know but I've only just fixed these voltages. I set everything PLL in tweakers paradise to the default value (0.9 on most but not all according to the bios help text) and set the bandwidth to 0.
No problems so far.

Thanks again.
