Yes.

1. Disable Second CCD.
2. Disable SMT.
3. Clean OS, minimal background apps running.
4. 360 AIO +Liquid Metal +100% fan speed.
5.Latest Chipset drivers, game mode enabled in windows and Game bar updated and enabled
6. Tuned CPU, using curve optimiser -28 all core. PBO enabled, max power limit scalar x10.
7. Tuned memory, 6200MhzC28 64GB dual rank, with FCLK at 2167mhz.
8. BIOS memory options, Disable memory power down.
-28 all core seems impossible, Ryzon Master says -25 is ok but as soon as it’s loaded it crashed. I ended up trying 25,20,15,10, 8 and 5. -10 was very close but now I just don’t bother with it as I use ECO, I can do a -8 which bumps performance up a bit but not enough to be worth it. My chip must suck, CCX 0 sp = 121-123, CCX 1 sp = 112-116, Average sp = 116. Do the 3D chips have 2 high sp CCX’s?
 
sadly this is AMD for you. make everything more hassle than it needs to. its baffling they still cant work this out. every product the same. just make it work without the extra messing about. its why most just pick intel nvida cause you plug in it works!

What is this fanboy style post.

You plug in a Nvidia gpu without any driver and it just works?

You need to install drivers for this CPU. End of the world though!

no fanboy ive had more amd stuff that intel and nvidia for many years. look above what you need to do to just get the best out of it. a load of hurdles.just plug intel in works. plug nvidia in works with driver. amd no..lets just do this that . then they wonder why they lose market all the time and dont do better.

It doesn't matter what you've had, this is fanboy style posting not even trying to offer value.

Hugely exaggerated claims which fall over instantly. This is the AMD cpu thread and you're saying AMD is wondering why they're losing market?

Well, I have to say that my impression of Intel's Hybrid chips is that they require a lot of fiddling. Still never figured out why my new AlderLake work laptop is so painfully slow at SQL that a 2P + 8E (10C/12T) CPU is over twice as slow as the old Haswell (2C/4T) CPU. The added insult is that, the new Intel 1235U chip throttles with a 65W while the old Haswell 35W CPU never did. No idea what Intel mean by U these days.

I think you misunderstood my post if that is your conclusion from it, dg. You do similar things on Intel if you want the best benchmarking scores in various games.

You do not need to do any of that, its still faster than the 13900K overall in games. Just by doing that you can extend the lead further in certain games, if you so desire.
 
I use y cruncher 1-7-0 to test cpu stability and 25 runs of TM5 1usmusv3 and 5 runs of Anta777extreme profiles to check stability.
1Usmus and Ycruncher are great.

How have you managed to do all this within a few days. Holy ******* ****. Do you even sleep, or have you fine tuned your body to the point that it’s unnecessary?

Lol it's a fair point. I'm close to getting my overclocks fully dialled in now, just trimming voltages as much as possible. Then I can reinstall Windows one last time (for now at least :D) to make sure there are no OS corruptions from overclocking escapades. Then I can start uploading videos to YT again.

Happy to help you with some suggested memory timings when you are up and running.

Thanks, I’ll take any help I can get. Hopefully It’s not going to be too much different, maybe even a little easier than Intel I’m hoping.
 
@LtMatt Is there a particular benchmark you recommend for quick and nasty testing?
I cannot carry on doing Cinebench tests and stay sane for CPU tweaks.
 
I remember the good old days when all you really had to do was increase the base clock thingy on CPU.

I remember the good old days when an CPU would only last you 6 to 10 months before Intel release a new one and you had to upgrade because the extra 100mhz would make a difference. :eek:

(Those days weren't actually very good)

Cinebench is a terrible tool for testing stability.

Using y cruncher (option 1-7-0) for testing curve optimiser settings and FCLK (although it won't test idle stability) and TM5 for testing memory frequency/timings/FCLK.

Y cruncher creates a lot of heat, so you'll want 100% fan speed, but it should sniff out instability in a few hours+ if there is any in the system. The best thing about it, is that it tells you which core failed, so you know which core to adjust (add voltage) using curve optimiser.

It was the dry period when Intel kept saying they would release 10nm chips/proccess and didnt that I moved to the otherside, now it would take a lot to drag me back.

@Noxia For quick good testing CPU-Z

Finally got around to some gaming. I wanted to check everything was up and running properly with the 3D cached cores. Which CPU numbers should be active for the 3D cached cores?
