I bought some Corsair stuff direct and then got impatient and ordered the same elsewhere. I've ended up with 2 sets so I was torn between returning or trying 64gb
 
i have a 7950x3d up until now core parking has been working apart from windows updates and changes the power profile. however i have got indiana jones and noticed all 32 threads are being used i have tried the xbox game bar and set it "remember this is a game" core parking is then working in the menus but it the game itself all 32 threads are being used.

Yup same, all 32 threads are being used in that game, except strangely enough the cut scenes seem to drop back to 3D cores only, core parking also isnt working with Windows balanced, you can be sat at the desktop and simply open microsoft edge and watch the 3d cores being instantly used for that, its not worked for a long time, the only one I know that works is Manix V5 Zen 4 2CCD 3D Cache profile.

Been running my 7950x3d negative -20 offset.
and Soc been using 2 volts. Will this be safe doing both to the cpu. Thanks in response.

If you're running 2v SOC voltage you can kiss goodbye to your CPU any day now, 1.3v is the absolute max.
 
Sorry my bad its was on 1.2 volts not 2v lol

LOL, now you're safe

Just out of chance, next time you do anything with your PC where you can remove 1 stick of ram, could you have a look at the sticker on it and see if one of the sets of numbers end with 20A or 20M please, its not on the box unfortunatly, only on the ram sticks.

maybe the game just needs all 32 cores? I loaded it up evertything on ultra just for giggles, my 4080 was at 100% and 9950x was at 88% usage

Mine started off just using the 3D cores, but once I got through the 2nd mission in the museum, it start to use all cores, ive noticed just theres an update for the game already, ive just installed it, but a bit late now for me to start playing it so i'll try it tomorrow and see if it fixes it.


Doesnt the 9950X also use the 3D driver though and meant to just use 1 CCD when gaming ?

Yup it does, halfway down: The Return of The PPM Provisioning Driver: But There's No 3D V-Cache, So Why?

Had a look it ends with 21A

yep doubled checked the recommended specs. they suggest a 7900x for max settings so a 12 core 24 thread chip. Im that used to seeing just the vcache ccx doing the work on most of the path traced games.
 
Thanks, dual rank Hynix A Die, interesting because the kit ive got has got 20M - Hynix M Die, and a friend has 20A Hyinx A Die single rank, they seem to put anything Hynix based in the 6000 CL30 kits.
Got my memory on auto and its running 32gb 6000MT at 1.1volts. don't know how. Says 1.35v on the sticks.
 
Are the CPU cores parked for the game only or are they still used for background services allowing the X3D CCD do it's stuff without interruption?
the cores are parked usually in games that use 8 cores/16 threads. i have it setup correct due to every other game i have tried only uses the vcache ccx wukong cyberpunk project borealis name a few. on background tasks the other ccx gets cracking. if i try cinebench it uses all 32 threads.
