Ryzen ClockTuner

Had a very quick mess around with this.

Got an extra 200 points in cinebench for increased voltage. Not really sure it's worth it for me with a bronze sample chip (3700x).

For my 3700x it finished with:
CCX1 at 4400 mhz
CCX2 at 4450 mhz
at 1275mV

CCX1 at 4450 mhz
CCX2 at 4450 mhz
at 1300mV

Interestingly Cinebench crashed before completing at 1275mV..., I stepped the voltage up to 1300mV and it ran fine, then ran the benchmark again which increased CCX1's frequency from 4400 to 4450 mhz.

My Cinebench scores:
PBO - 4810
CTR Default - 4582
CTR tuned at 1275mV - 5260
CTR tuned at 1300mV - 5300


i'll try going up and down in voltage a bit more another day.

Really cool tool and easy to use.

some really good results there too, nice!
 
My 3600 came back as a platinum sample which its clearly not as it needs a fair bit over 1.3v to do 4.2.

Also pretty disappointed that you can't enter a voltage of 1.375 or more.

Mine came back that too at first, then I realised in the box it was 6.somehing Ghz.

Adjusted to stock values manually then the benchmarks actually ran lol. Bronze last night before I got tired and went to bed. I have not set my RAM yet its on default was waiting for this release to start tinkering.
 
Setup - X570 Aorus Pro (F30 bios), 3900X, 2x8GB 3600mhz c14.

Was playing with this last night and didn't ever complete a run with out it rebooting the PC. :/

I happened at various points, tried a load of different things, mem at mem calc settings, then at XMP, then at manual 3200Mhz (down from XMP's 3600) with auto timings that booted super loose.
Different LLC's, manual Vs full auto BIOS settings etc etc.

Best I could get was it completing the diag part, then starting the next stage, could get it to run CB ok but it would always reboot the PC at some point in the next stage.
Sometimes straight away, sometimes it would run a little longer but never got it to finish. :(

The sample grade thing it gives seems to be a bit hit'n'miss as well as I've had it tell me mine is bronze, silver and gold on different runs depending on bios settings.
Log file seems to be useless after it has rebooted the PC but did grab one where is showed the grade...

Diagnostic results:
Energy efficient: 3.86
AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor - Gold sample
Recomended values for Overclocking:
Reference frequency: 4375 MHz
Reference voltage: 1250 mV
Recomended values for Undervoolt:
Reference frequency: 4200 MHz
Reference voltage: 1150 mV

So it looks like I should have a fairly decent chip, so no idea why the tool never completes for me with out it rebooting the PC. :(
 
okay, so I've reset the bios to default and followed the guide settings and it does 18 passes before I get to the end now. It's a silver sample, however I can run an all core OC of 4.3ghz at 1.28175v so I think I'll leave it as it is.
 
Downloaded R20 from the website rather than the Microsoft store. Works fine now.

Upgraded my BIOS next. I still can't see any LLC settings in my BIOS though for my Asrock board. I get max of 3% vdroop the tool tells me. A little disappointed in reading that Asrock sucks for LLC support/ability.

Side note: I also discovered that I was having perf issues and finally figured out that my CPU fan was set as standard rather than performance, so it looks to have been getting too hot. R20 run was up 100 points after changing it lol.

My sample is 3600 is 'bronze', whatever that means.

The tool fails really early on so far and I ended up with CCX 0: 4050 | CCX 1: 4100 @1.275v. (I normally run 4.2ghz all core. The weird thing is that volts don't help one bit, so something else is going on. I will try with the faster fan setting today.

EDIT: Additionally, my motherboard AT STOCK, puts 1.44v's through my 3600 (jaw drop). That is stock bios setting. 'Asrock killed the cpu star?'

Your spec is very similar to mine, and it ran just fine. Although my ram is 3600 cl16 and my 3900x is apparently 'silver'.

I wonder what the differences are with people who get it to run and people who don't.
