You're in for a nice upgrade and i should be able to provide you with some overclock settings to get you to 4Ghz 24/7 on all cores.

I think 4.025Ghz was 1.46v if i remember correctly. 4Ghz was 1.417v. Make sure you overclock via P State and not Base frequency/multiplier.

I was going to try P State, but since it's cool (relatively) at idle and quiet, and i'm happy with the settings currently, i never got around to trying P State way.
 
Oh and whilst i remember, i had to set my 1080Ti to stock clocks as it was crashing Luxmark as a part of realbench. That took a little while to figure out, not sure why it did it, i only added +50 core and +100 memory. I suspect it might be very sensitive to memory errors?

Did it black screen on you?
 
Okay this is really weird.

The AMD 17.3.1 chipset drivers you linked are 110MB, but the Gigabyte "AMD 16.50.2601 chipset driver" is 1.26GB and contains none of their motherboard bloat, the MSI one (also 16.50.2601) is 1013MB and the ASUS one for the Crosshair is again 1.26GB (and listed as V9.0.000.8).

Add to make thing stranger, I had forgotten this but when I installed the Gigabyte ones, the Radeon installer thought it was installing a graphics card lol (the setting up/ready to use messages were for a gfx card not a mobo).

The first ASUS ones were like that for me, the newer ones installed just like I'd expect.
 
I've created a monster :D

Now I get what they mean with this sleep bug :eek::D
 
No NVME here, just the same SSDs as with my 5960x.

Got 4.150Ghz stable @ voltage of 1.526v under 100% load. Removing LLC has definitely given me extra headroom. Think I'm close to the limit now, 4.2Ghz may be just out of reach, but perhaps i can get 4.175Ghz at 1.56v or under.

Elmor just posted this about LLC
The dangerous part is high voltage with high current. High voltage at low load is ok, to a certain point of course. Some load-line is recommended for prolonged use, there's a reason it's part of the official specification from CPU manufacturers.
