@CWP I think i have it working ill update if it doesn't. Cheers!

When a cpu/gpu fails to obtain a new work unit it ends up waiting a set amount of time. Each consecutive failure to obtain a new unit causes the time to increase. However this time increases at ridiculous rate by the 12th failed attempt it is waiting a couple hours.This leaves the client idle in some cases for multiple hours. A quick trick to get the attempts back down to a reasonable time is to pause then fold again. This resets the timer and counter and if it fails it will wait 2 minutes then some amount more ect. Manually this isn't a problem as noticing if the gpu is not running at full tilt is easy, just listen to the fans spin. The problem lies in when you go to sleep and it might end up idling for some hours because it was unable to get a work unit for 20 minutes. I was wondering if someone has made a macro/(compiled code with better timer) to pause and fold if there have been say X amount of failed attempts.

ITS OVER @Cysero IM GAINING ON YOU (it gets hot at night with my pc amiright or what?)

Hey i also might be interested in joining i just got byoc tickets.

Do you need a BYOC ticket to participate in the tournaments that are going to be hosted? Just wondering so i can choose to buy a BYOC ticket from people on the forum or just the 2 day pass.

yikes if there's a life time warranty the sticks or any warrently i would take it. The stick with the worst timing and frequency would be the best you could achieve, so if you got a 3000 stick you wouldn't be able to run them at 3000 because of your current stick unless you made the timings higher for all them.

You dont nessarly need to get the same kit, The only problem is that you might not be able to reach the same timings if you buy another 3000MHz kit (unless they are the same timmings). Im not sure how the xmp will handle different and you might have to set trimmings and speed manually.

will you ever be able to obtain more money in the future? because currently getting more money and then using it to get a better solution since you should be able to re use your ram, power supply case. The problem is that you have 2 components that are kinda balanced and they are very cheap. Cheap enough that upgrading one part or the other wont make to much of a difference. If you upgrade your GPU it might be better at higher resolutions but then you will still have bad fps in actual fights or game play. If you upgrade your CPU you will get better more stable fps but only enough to the bottleneck your gpu and you will remain at lower resolutions. @star_pilot475 response is probably the best option. If you can get more money later on it would probably benefit you to upgrade your gpu first and rx 580 is a good pick.

Thats for intel and AMD just hasen't been relevant for 10 years until ryzen.

oh no uhhh uhhhh uhhhhhhh you only real option unless you have ram, case, graphics card, or more laying around your going to only be able to squeek by with like either a athlon or a 2200g/2400g <= better than athlon.

Which video editing software? It depends.

2600k it can overclock probably just as well as 2700k. Not worth the extra 10 for 2700k.

For the B450 board you might have too update the bios on it for the 3600 which will require having a AM4 socket chip e.g. (1000 series 2000 series ryzen based athlons) . Alternatively when you buy the chip you can fill out the AMD form for them to send you a CPU (that you have to send back) to update your bios. If you go the ryzen 2700 route you wont need to update your bios.

hey i own a t3600 and there a clear cmos pins right next to the 24 pin power connector idk know if that will work but try that and if you didnt already know that dell uses a proprietary 24 pin for the board so normal powersupplys dont work unless you rewire the psu or have a adapter. When i first got the t3600 to launch it took like 3 minutes i think so keep that in mind.

If he has a dell board similar to mine(T3600) that doesn't work since the power button pin(s) don't work that way and you need a proprietary device like this. i did however find out if you want to turn it on in a super jank way just hotswap a pcie device in and it will turn on.

Okay thank for the info i think im going to go with a MAX6675 arduino thermocouple to SPI and then just use serial to PC and log the data. I did not know there was a box to tell people that the post was edited thanks for telling me. Also any recommendations for current clamps? Ive always wanted one but i didn't want to spend $100 to $200 on one. you can just PM i don't think we need to send messages anymore on this post and me even making this post on this page is contradictory to what i just said.

Used gtx 1060(120$), 1070 (230$),1070 ti (290$), 1080(~370$) are good bang for your buck and will do 1080p all games no problems. New the Rx 580(180$-200$) or 590(210-220$) should easily hit 60fps 1080 max settings in all titles except maybe gta 5 as its heavy nvidia biased so you would have overclock it a bit. personally a Used 1070 or ti would be my choice you will always have above 60 fps at 1080p. Used Vega 56 come around 240$ but are kinda hot cards but are good overclockers with cooling.

AVX instruction set offset? That could do it.

which slots on the motherboard are you place it on? This image demonstrates the correct locations.

check your hdd usage in task manager and see if its at 100% in the city, this is just a hunch but you never know.

its a 4 core if your wondering and from what i can tell i haven't burned my finger, it does feel hot but its not boiling water hot.

@brob in your link it states that turbo boost technology 2.0 only has 2 states pl1 and pl2, but in the article you quoted " Intel has had this in place for a number of generations of processors, and most of it didn’t actually matter, as the power draw for the full chip was often well below the PL1 value even at full load. "The E5-1620 has base of 3.6 GHz with turbo 1/1/2/2 basically in non stressful aplications eg only 2 cores loaded the xeon is always at 3.8 GHz when the xeon is loaded to 3 or 4 cores it only has a 100MHz boost so its 3.7GHz. Now lets take for instance the i7-2600k as 1620 is really only a slighty higher cache (2MB) version with same max turbo. using this article we can see that the load on cinebench R11.5 measured through the ATX12V connector is 86W . Now lets look at how the 1620 performs with that same benchmark. HMMMMMMM oddly accurate only few watts less power than whenaida64 is stressing which is mostly due to not being as fully stressful or maybe the cache is being stressed harder or perhaps its not reading the wattage past a certain point, who know i need to buy a current clamp to test my self. @Jurrunio can also test this if he remove all overclocking and sees what he should get as he has a 2600k. Its clear that overclocking messes with the power draw reading for CPUID as its not using normal states anymore. Have you ever held your finger directly to a VRM? You can tell the difference between a decent number of temperatures its a built in functions humans have if you didn't know. If There was a VRM temperature measuring device embedded on the board most likely if it was over heating it would throttle the clocks, if there isn't then it could have the potential to get ridiculously hot and thus detectable by my finger. So either way its going to be detected by one or the other. Also if you want me too i will buy a thermal probe give me some good recommendations so i can test it more scientifically. And if your wondering why i posted 3 posts in a row its the simple fact that when i edit a post you people don't even seem to read the edit like how @brob responded because when i edit a minute after and then 2 minutes after they respond having the old edit not seeing the correction. @valdyrgramr and @Norwegiantweaker i hope this clear this up for you. The reason for all this is the fact that an extra heat sink vrm is not worth the money for a 2200g that is only doing office work. The reason that the B450 is being used is to squeeze little bit more performance out of the RAM as A320 is locked to 2666. Here a article about the power usage of the 2200g the write states that this is the power usage of the entire system. Here is Toms hardware that has power for as well but it doesn't include the entire system around 54W avg to 65.5W max. Seeing as the the original poster stated that the work that is going to be done is CPU heavy, no IGPU tasks. The ryzen 2200g voltage at load is 1.36v which would mean 48.16 Amps draw through the Vcore VRM. 4 phases 12.04‬ Amps per phase. Looking at a B450 3+3 phase from buildzoid we can see that a beefy 3 phase vrm at 75A outputs 10.3W. taking this over estimate (since the vrm become more inefficient the more current you push through it) of the power used at 75 and scaling it down to 48 Amps we get 6.6 Watts total heat on vrm. Now spread over 4 phases its 1.65W per phase which in honesty doesn't require a heatsink with some small amount of air flow(coming from cpu cooler).

and if you didn't get the good estimate this is referring to 100% load as i hope you already understand this.

now let me show you something very interesting. My xeon will only go to 87 Watts even though its a 130w part. But how could this be? Simple the e5-1660 the 6 core variant is actually 130w and the 4 core variant is a cut-down with 2 cores disabled. (130/6)*4 = 86.666 Watts proof of TDPs intels own website E5-1660 E5-1620 so in this case the TDP does lie, but its not for the reason that you might belive as the TDP is very accurate for these types of cpus. There was a time not to far ago that TDP was actually relevant.
