  1. Will have a look at that, not a big benchmarking guy myself, but will try in the morning and report back.
  2. Thanks WereCat! 1. Thanks, I'll keep digging. I seem to vaguely remember an issue with comma and dot in the past for decimal symbol, I did change that. I might restore original values. 2. Cinebench 20. It's more that the difference between memorry on 2133 and 3200 was so weird, constently a few percent faster on 2133. I don't care too much about the values themselves. 3. Thanks, if you have a good guide for me to start understand how to do that safely I'd be much obliged!
  3. Yeah, I figured the same, but it's hard to get good clear info on it. I would like to know if I'm bottlenecking my CPU somehow. I'm looking to run heavy simulations on it and would like to use the full potential of the cpu. If it's a few percent less with 3200, I'm ok with that, but if it get to 10 or 15% slower performance I'm probably changing out the memory. If I'm sure about it.
  4. Oh I didn't see or remember that, I've seen some other channels that do it, and not in a big way, but just a bit get a few more percentage out of it. But I'm definitely not looking to make the livespan of this CPU shorter. The Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 came out on top of most watercooling solutions I've red about. Thanks for chiming in!
  5. Here's the timings, they look as advertised, I think 1600Mhz is half of 3200Mhz and this is correct right? I've read that the most ideal is 3600Mhz to connect with the infinity fabric, but I'm fuzzy on the details..
  6. Hi all, I've build my TR 3960x over a week ago and I've taken it in production since a week now. Few things I have noticed and hopefully I can gain some insights in why I have a few small issues. Build: CPU: TR 3960x + Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 Mobo: TRX40 Aorus Master PWR: CORSAIR HX Series HX1000 Mem: Corsair Vengeance LPX (128GB, 3200Mhz, CL16 (16-18-18-36)) SSD: Gigabyte Aorus NVMe Gen4 SSD 1TB And I reused my gtx1070 and 980ti, runs on Win10, freshly installed all the latest drivers and bios etc. Questions: 1. After PC goes to sleep (or hibernation) and comes back, I have 1 logical processor sitting at 80% always. See screenshot (resource monitor shows the same values). The active processes show not a single process that is consuming that much cpu usage. I've painstakingly eliminated one by one as many processes as I could and until the system was crippled, but nothing made even a slight impact on the cpu usage. I'm left wondering what causes this. I tried 2 different bios versions, but made no difference either. Anyone with a clue, I'd be happy to hear it! After a complete reboot the CPU is normal, but when out of sleep the problem returns. And it's always this core. Temps look fine when not under load: low to mid 40's (celsius). 2. I run the memory with XMP enabled at 3200Mhz. When I run cinebench with (3200Mhz) and without (2133Mhz) XMP enabled, my cinebench score is 3% faster on 2133Mhz than on 3200Mhz. This is a big surprise obviously and I have yet to understand why this happens. 3. In light of question 2, am I better of with 3600Mhz kit perhaps? Does TR work faster with a 3600Mhz kit and if so by what margin? 4. Are there any good overclocking guides of video's on this particular CPU, I feel I'm leaving some performance on the table, while I could still have a stable workhorse. Thanks in advance for any pointers! -Johan
