Caporegime
Thanks for all the help.
I finally found the USB lead for my brothers AIO, but I'm completely out of thermal paste, so I've ordered myself some Grizzly which I should get next week.
I've got the case back together and the CPU at idle is bouncing between 35°C and 45°C
Now with curve optimising, do I wanna follow the guide I posted up at the top?
Precision Boost Overdrive --> Advanced
PBO Limits --> Disabled
Curve Optimizer --> All Cores
All Core Curve Optimizer Sign --> Negative
All Core Curve Optimize --> 20
Yes, the only think that i'm slightly confused about is "PBO Limits --> Disabled" you would think "Disabling" PBO limits would allow the CPU to draw too much power, tho i'm probably over thinking it and that's not at all what this means, i'll have a look at the video again later when i have the time, right now i'm going off line for a couple of hours.
For now try it. it looks about right
