So I been running my 10850K at 5200Mhz for weeks,Am I going to degrade CPU

[Coolasmoo]

Those aren't the correct vcore though. My 10900k is 5.2 @1.38v.

What it reports

What the VRM controller which is the true vcore reports at idle

What the same controller reports under load R20. High LLC

I see, Here is my 9900K after running R20

 

[pc-guy]

No idea what's going on but loled anyway.

it was a great comment! the thread properly should have stopped at that point "Strange times, strange people"

 

[turbot1984]

Dialed my 10850 back to 5.1 and 1.30v... good speed/temp compromise.
I got higher scores on Neon Noir benchmark @ 5.2 though....

 

[Grim5]

Yea you will, any overclock will the only thing you can do is set your voltage at a level where the degradation doesn't happen quickly.

for intel that's 1.3v, don't go any higher

If 5.4GHz gives you the same FPS as 4.8GHz, you're doing something terribly wrong.

I love people like you.You do not read a thread and have some pre conceived conclusion ,I am not running Intel pussy resolutions. You have got no clue how this crap works. So I made a video just for you. 4800Mhz vs 5200Mhz and guess what the 5400Mhz would be. I have an answer because I know and tested.

Video is call Intel 4800Mhz vs 5200Mhz left out 5400Mhz and wait for the smart people guess on FPS like sedy25

I'm really happy for you. But why Troll ? no one cares what cpu you bought. If you haven't noticed this is a enthusiasts forum, not the Amd fanboy forum. The fact is any of the High end Cpu's from Either Amd or intel are just perfect for a High end gaming PC. Outside retarded forced bottle neck benchmarks both will give you EXACTLY the same experience.

The same conclusion I came to. By the time it matters everyone will have moved on to newer hardware. I'm more interested in a cool, smooth experience these days. I don't care about power but I do care about the heat it turns into and I want plenty of resources so I can run whatever I want without any background processes impacting things.

That was interesting to watch. It looks like when at 5200MHz the cores aren't working all that hard so plenty of headroom. When at 4800MHz it looks to me like more of that free headroom is being used by all the cores but it's still not maxing out. Would this explain why there's no fps difference as neither settings are maxing out CPU?

 

[Shac]

GPU is maxed so extra cpu core speed is not gonna help.

Well at least as long as you don't run at potato resolutions.

Whats the monitoring program you use for the cores etc?

 

[ver01@]

Afterburner can do this

 

[m4rmite]

Afterburner can do this

With the fancy circle graphics?

I'm aware of its normal osd monitoring but the sexy circles intrigue me.

 

[Tinkers2004]

1.6v maximum is a very high and i am sure that wont do your chip any good long term, you , have you set it at 1.38v but left adaptive on so it can push more voltage when required?

 

[montymint]

So I been running my 10850K at 5200Mhz for weeks,Am I going to degrade CPU .I have run at 5400Mhz but I was afraid it was too high .

What if I lost 20 points in Cinebench after a year I would be devastated. Anyway 4800Mhz gives the same FPS as 5200Mhz and 5400Mhz what would you run at .I like the big numbers though.

Depends what you use your pc for. Since your GPU is maxing out (on those games in your videos) the extra speed on the CPU isn't going to matter, so you might as well run at the slower clocks, even if it's just to keep any extra power usage (and heat) down.

If you do more productivty work that benefits from the extra oomf in the CPU, then you know it's worth keeping the higher overclock.

It is MSI/RTSS I post several times on this and overlays but it is the internet. Here is my Cyberpunk 2077 on nexus with read me,you can use your own animations/graphics/font/color etc.

[LeMson]

No point in Intel chips unless you are b00sting the balls off em kf

 

[gerardfraser]

Well I owned Intel/AMD chips. AMD is far more fun to play with but Intel is fine also just boring as ****.
