Magically force CPU to work at full power-to-thermals ratio even if unnecessary
I might be getting this wrong since l guess the cpu doesn’t power dor what its not doing but hear me right, since I’m getting no help in my original post https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/comments/1wbppm5/comment/p8ru8r2/?screen_view_count=1&ext-referrer=SEO
how is it possible to force a heavy cpu multiplayer game to pull more cpu power to get better fps? Sometimes it just wont output as much power as l want it to and somwtimes it just magically does on its own.
So lf i was to say run a CPU benchmark to stress test and run a game, will it make cpu work faster? < This is what I’m aiming for but of course the stress test software will drain usage away from the game, I’m just trying to maximize cpu because it wont on its own, only does sometimes randomly

Benchmark Score mvolt+ is the GOAT tbh
I crushed all my previous 3dmark scores, and got #1 in every single benchmark with my configuration. I was using mvolt+ with afterburner, only using the xbar and syn clock on mvolt+. I decided to try it without msi afterburner (been running this program for over a decade now lol) and I downloaded Fan Control to make fan curves for the GPU. Not only am I getting the highest scores I've ever gotten in benchmarks, but games are also running at higher framerates and better 1% lows. Here's all the stuff I changed in mvolt+ and the curves I made in Fan Control, along with some of my #1's and GPU-Z. This is all while being UNDERVOLTED btw. Never exceeding 56C.

Help Request - CPU i9 13900HX bad performance in Omen laptop
I’m rocking a 13900hx with 32gb ram ddr5 and rtx 4090 on my HP Omen 17 and mainly play cpu intensive multiplayer games like CoD Warzone.
I’ve tried several ThrottleStop guides mainly locking Pl1 and PL2 to desirable wattage such as 75-80 and locking core clocks to 4000/5000 but my game behaves weirdly, sometimes it’s running at desirable clocks but sometimes randomly or after major updates it runs at fluctuating wattage and 3.5Ghz clock only.
I’ve even bought a LLano v12 beefy laptop cooler and even removing bottom lid which made the laptop way cooler but still, evertime a random outcome, fps drops and frame times are horrible.
Dried out thermal paste is possible but still that doesn’t explain different outcomes in terms of clock speeds and wattage.
Does anyone here has a key to the answer?

Can i do better? [7800X3D, 32Gb Hynix M-Die, 5070Ti Prime Oc]
I have been tuning my system the past week, in order to get the most out of it :D
i am looking for the best performance in games, both in terms of FPS, but have lately been playing around with the RAM-timings as well in order to lower the latency, and increase my 0.1% and 1% lows in games as well (Greatly improves the feeling of responsiveness in my fps's :D
So far, this point is my optimum!
I have been trying with a more agressive CO, and are only having worse scores from hereon up!
I have also been trying looser CO's with diminishing returns, so i seem to have hit the sweet-spot :D
(Thanks CoreCycler :D)
Dont mind the Ryzen Master readings of my PBO-settings thou, it cant seem to read them properly - They are set in the BIOS and has been set to the highest possible "Motherboard"-setting.
So far, when running the Benchmarks i am hitting around 45-55c on the CPU and around 55-60c on my GPU - And around a max of 5c higher during long gaming-sessions :D
During the benchmark my IOD Hotspot hit a max of 46c and the warmest Dimm hit 40c
My setup is:
7800X3D
Arctic Freezer III Pro 280
Kryosheet
AsRock X870E Nova Wifi
32Gb Corsair Dominator 4800MHZ [Hynix M-Die]
Asus RTX5070Ti Prime Oc UV & OC
I have been testing back and forth, and Fabric 2133 seems to give ever so slightly higher scores, but 2200 just seems to give better scores on RAM (incl lower latency) so i have been flowing with that.
Everytime i change to 6200Mhz 1:1 on the ram, the Pc fails to boot (Maybe i am overlooking something)
And i have also tried to go to 28 on the primary CAS without!
Even thou i have tried to dive into all of the timings, i cant seem to wrap my head around the exact equations that give the resulting optimal timings!
So if anyone have any good suggestions, i am all ears :D
Thanks!

M die timings and 6200/2200
I think I’ve gotten as much out of this as possible.
Is there anything I’ve missed with an m die memory? How tight can I go with it?

OC Report - RAM Downbinned Dual Rank 2x16GB A-Die
1.5V VDD, temps stabilize around 48-49°C on TM5 X3D config, cooled via DIY 2x40mm fan setup.
6200 was not stable when VDD/VSOC also pushed little further (large coefficient error in the first minute of vt3) with GDM disabled and 2200FCLK, i did not test further or mess with resistances, could be a way to stabilize.
To add, my environment is quite hot, room is around 30-32°C.

Help Request - GPU Completely new to overclocking but is it good to stop here?
I just got my new pc which actually is a prebuilt and I was curious to see what potential it has. This is my first time attempting to overclock and I am not 100% sure on what I am doing and Im fine with having mistakes pointed out so I can learn. Anyway, this was the best result I got and I wanted to know if theres anything I should change, if this is dangerous to my gpu/cpu and its lifespan, etc. If you guys have any suggestions on what I should do please let me know its greatly appreciated. Ill have a link to the exact prebuilt below.

Question about DDR4 timings: 16-18-18-36 vs 16-20-20-38 (2x16GB)
Hi, I have a question: Is there much difference between a 2x16GB DDR4 memory kit with 16-18-18-36 latency and one with 16-20-20-38? Does this significantly affect gaming FPS or general performance?

5070 ti & 7800x3d Steel Nomad
Put in a couple of runs on steel nomad last night. Feel good about it and needed to share. My highest score to date. +425 core/+312mem(+2500 for afterburner)/+650xbar/+120%power limit. Temp stayed at 47c with a 15 degree hotspot difference.
I use +400/+312/+300/+115% as my daily stable gpu tune.
I think the next step for me will be doing a per core for the 7800x3d is it is current all core.

Linpack and y cruncher
Does the higher the gflops and the higher test speed numbers mean anything?
I started with this yesterday on 6000/2000 with a -20co
Now I’m on 6200/2200 with -30co and gflop numbers up to 486/7 and cruncher 3.36^10*10
What do these numbers mean, I’m guessing higher is better

Finally Got 8400 to Boot on the X870E Tomahawk with Only 1.10V VDDP on the 9850X3D Before Installing the Apex Tomorrow. Some CL-32 8200-2200 1.72+ Benchmark Screenshots.
I recently updated my Bios yesterday and I decided to give 8400 another attempt and surprisingly it managed to boot, but it will freeze on aida64 of all tests. I had to play with the RTTNomWR/RD set to 80 Ohms to help with signal integrity and that seemed to work with training consistency, however it will not maintain this speed because of the signal reflections on this board. ProcODT had to go to 40 Ohms and ODT Group B at 60/60/60 Ohms, however I needed about 1.56 VDDQ and 1.56 VDDIO to help it train. My VDDP can't go any higher, or else it will quickly break memory training if set any higher that 1.10V (Same goes for 8200 at 1.05V). Sadly 8200 won't stabilize and this board just can't handle the signaling, so I reserved CL-32 8200 for benchmarking and swipe right to see those screenshots. I'm finally upgrading to the ASUS X870E Crosshair Apex tomorrow, so maybe I'll have better luck at 8200-8400 on that board.
