I have a used GTX 1660 TI which is about 2.5-3years old, i had to buy it because i was on a budget, and in some games (mostly Ark: Survival Evolved) i can't reach 60 FPS on medium graphics (going down to low is too much of a downgrade) so i tried overclocking. I used MSI afterburner and have increased the core clock by 130 MHz and memory clock by 70 MHz. This has increased my average fps from about 50ish to 60ish, but I have run into some stability issues with overclocking, random textures going all gliched and some game crashes(though ark is known to be extremly buggy so crashes are common), although i haven't experienced one single straight up computer crash . I have had similar issues before but the texture glitches are happening more frequently. Am i supposed to turn down my core clocks even more, and is that even safe? Is my gpu just dying? Am i doing something wrong? Or am i simply asking too much from a 170 euro gpu?

Hello Guys, for the first time i want to undervolt my CPU. I got a Ryzen 5600 and a Gigabyte b450m ds3hv2. To make it simple i want to use 1usmus CTR but when i open it i get following error: System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Der Objektverweis wurde nicht auf eine Objektinstanz festgelegt. [Translation: The referral of the object isn't tied to an object instant] at A.c7ef8ec682dd21d60b7ea8e49e2ff83f2.c5c2452607c2665392a3543b056d8caa4() at A.c7ef8ec682dd21d60b7ea8e49e2ff83f2.c851a92f7e153dde284accde57e5e21c4() at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Execute() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.ThrowIfExceptional(Boolean includeTaskCanceledExceptions) at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Wait(Int32 millisecondsTimeout, CancellationToken cancellationToken) at A.c7ef8ec682dd21d60b7ea8e49e2ff83f2..ctor() ---> (Inner Exception #0) System.NullReferenceException: Der Objektverweis wurde nicht auf eine Objektinstanz festgelegt. at A.c7ef8ec682dd21d60b7ea8e49e2ff83f2.c5c2452607c2665392a3543b056d8caa4() at A.c7ef8ec682dd21d60b7ea8e49e2ff83f2.c851a92f7e153dde284accde57e5e21c4() at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Execute()<--- If someone tells me how to change the errormassage to be completly in english i would be happy aswell. Can anyone help me? Maybe it's because i didn't set a load line calibration level as mentioned in Linus video (https://youtu.be/W872lQcy65I?t=163). I cannot find it anywhere in the Bios. I'm running the latest Bios "F63" with "AMD AGESA V2 1.2.0.7". I haven't touched any bios settings aswell. I only enabled XMP and everything cpu regarding is on auto (frequenzy, voltage and so on). I'm just realising that it might be because the non x Version of the Ryzen 5600 isn't supported? CTR doesn't specifically mention support for non x just for the x version. Before someone starts to questioning my reasons to undervolt. There are 2 reasons for it. 1. I don't need any performance at all this CPU is overkill for my Setup anyways (rtx 3050, 4k Display 60hz, no "esport Games") 2. energy cost is very high at my location. Don't ask me why i chose this configuration it totally made sense in my case. Ps: I'm running Windows 11 in case that matters. Thanks for any advice.

Hi all Planning on upgrading my rig, I currently have a rtx 3070ti fe gpu. would my 750 watt Seasonic psu be enough to power my i5 13600kf and a rtx 4080 fe? I have a nvme and sata ssd, as well as liquid aio and 5 lian li uni fans. I play triple A games on my 4k tv and would like to do a little a bit of over locking as well. Cheers guys

Hi all! While waiting for more fittings to arrive to finish the water cooling loop, I wanted to make the backplate on my EVGA 3080 12G FTW3 active. It's not running that hot but it just bothers me that the backplate could be doing something instead of nothing. Just wondering if anyone has the same or similar card to get input on thermal pad thickness, and their placement. I was just going to place thermal pads on the backside of the memory solder points but is there anywhere else on the back that would like some more thermal mass? Also looking for recommendations on brands and types of thermal pads. Thanks in advance! For those who don't want to buy different kinds of thermal pads and read two people bicker over terminology, 3mm did the trick. Though a softer pad is ideal. If using harder pads 2.5mm may be just right.

hello guys i built my pc with 8x2gb or corsair vengeance 3200mhz ram (hynix die) 3 years ago and recently i was running out of ram at 90%+ peak usage so i brought the same set of ram to fill up the remainding 2 ram slots but this time it came with samsung die. The best speed i could set all the ram running at is 2666mhz cl16 and i was think should i bother with overclocking the ram to get extra speed? since my current cpu is zen+ where ram speed affects performance. i tried 2993 mhz before and it sometimes boot up but revert itself back to 2133mhz after a few times my pc specs: ryzen 7 2700 b450 mortar gtx 1660 super 550w psu i do plan to build a new pc 5 years later as my country have conscription(2 year) after i finished my tertiary education 2.5 years later and my pc would be just collecting dust when i am in the armed forces so i plan to built one after that

Hi, I have a problem with my i7 9700k (full specs below). I can set it to overclock to 5Ghz on all cores and it's running, but once there is an actual load on it, all clocks fall down to 4,2Ghz flat. I've looked at HWinfo and it's reaching 70C max on some of the cores (not all), which I don't believe should be a cause for thermal throtteling yet, right? Does anyone have any suggestions? Maybe I've not enabled some limiter or something? Please help if you can community. ^^ CPU: i7 9700k MB: Gigabyte Z370P 3D RAM: 2x8GB DDR4 3200MHz G.Skill GPU: RTX 3070 Gigabyte PS: SPC Supremo FM2 750W (80+ gold)

Summary According to Buildzoid, AMD's new RX 7000 series of GPUs no longer support power play table modification as a way to offer fine grained control over the GPU's power and frequency settings. A thread on the AMD subreddit raised a similar concern and an AMD engineer responded that RDNA3 changed how PPT works and they intended to look into it at some point. Quotes My thoughts Personally, I never touch those dials anyway so it doesn't really affect me.

Started from this thread: I'm using C# and WPF to create the interface, and NvAPIWrapper to interact with NVIDIA APIs: https://github.com/tylercamp/ezgpuctl I've managed a basic MVP which can display GPU info and apply OCs with core offset, memory offset, and power target. Mostly using this thread to share info about this project, though it's still not entirely functional yet (recent commit removes OC GUI as I reorganize UI). Putting this thread up early in case someone wants to try their hand at adding support for AMD GPUs. Anyone interested can comment here, and should try getting readings and applying an OC using a local C# project before bringing anything into this. (I don't have abstractions yet to easily swap out the underlying GPU interface.) A C++ implementation works too, I can just write a C# wrapper for it. Not looking for this to become an in-depth OC tool (ie, no frequency curves), and GPU monitoring is essentially just for the user to verify the current GPU state, so don't need to get in-depth with reporting/OC capabilities. This is partly to constrain design scope, partly because NvAPIWrapper doesn't seem to have all of the NVIDIA APIs needed for more advanced stuff. For reference on what data to fetch, these are the current classes I have for managing GPU data: https://github.com/tylercamp/ezgpuctl/tree/main/GPUControl.Lib/GPU Screenshots:

Okay I hate that I have to come here to ask this but it seems that my gpu isnt allowing me to OC it. Using both Precision X1 and MSI AB its not letting OC my new MSI - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ventus 3X 12G OC, you'd think with OC in the name it wouldn't be giving me this many issues. I can change the values in both but it doesn't seem to change anything, even when pushing the system with Kombustor, I cannot change the Power % to higher than 100, and I don't think my fans are letting me change them either, I know this is probably some dumb mistake on my part LOLOLOL, but any advice and answers are appreciated. Thanks!

Well i am a little confused. Some recommend prime other linpack others swear on occt but almost nobody i look up exactly writes with setting they use. so i want to know which of these test are the heaviest and best for what reason and how long should i run one of these test for stability. something like a overview. i mainly looking at these test : prime95 small fft ( extremly hard on everything so i quit it ) xtu cpu stress test (all xtu test doesnt seam as hard as the other options) xtu cpu stress test with avx or avx2 - occt "cpu index tab" small auto or avx/avx2 mode normal ( also extremly hard on thermals and power draw so i also quit it beforhand ) occt "cpu index tab" big auto or avx/avx2 mode normal (harder then some other options but much more easly then occt small and/or prime ) occt "linpack index tab" 2019 or 2021 (are this good test. these seams hard but not unmanagably like other options) linpack extreme ( not tryed jet ) occt mode extreme (is this the same as linpack extreme? - also not tried jet ) cinebench r23 (from what i can tell okish for thermal testing but for stability are better options elsewhere) so i was thinking on going with occt linpack 2019 because of all the options that i run and read about it seams to be a hard enough test right. i currently want to undervolt my cpu 10gen because of powersaving any insight from experienced overclocker/ undervolter would be great.

MSI Bazooka B450M AM4 Ryzen 7 2700 Be Quiet! Air Cooler 3 Case Fans GTX 970 500W PSU My max overclocking ability- 3.85GHz @ 1.295V I definitely feel like I can push this chip farther. It only gets up to about 70C under the stress test. However, in AIDA64 my motherboard temps climb steadily until failure at anything about my current overclock. Even at my current, the MB sits at around 85C. I am not to sure what can get hot on a motherboard and how I could go about fixing it. Any help is appreciated! -Noah

Im bad with titles, so let me explain: A few days ago, I ordered a 3070 TI. After i ordered it, I looke dat my system and decided I had to Overclock my CPU (i7-7900k) so i can use my 3600 mhz Ram at 3600 mhz and not on 2666 mhz with XMP. I did that, my cpu is at 4.3 GHZ (my cooler cant handle more without getting in the 95 Degree Celsius Space. So 4.3 GHZ, thermals are fine, i stress tested for like 90 minutes with prime95. ) Errors, no problems at all, (cpu and ram was on 97-100% usage the whole 90 minutes). I stress tested with my old 1660 super. Now I have the 3070 ti, and my pc ran into 2 "Error occurred, system needs to restart" stuff. That only happened when i opened an app (RGB Fusion and Minecraft Launcher) and after the restart i could open the app normally. In addition, when i opened chrome, whatsapp and my settings, some text didnt show up, or there where random black rectangles all around the screen and stuff. Now im realy confused bcs even though I weas able to get a stable overclock and have a nice pc, I m a newbie and not a pro in this field. (Im not english so sorry for any Spelling mistakes and stuff) My Pc specs are: i7-7900k @3.6 GHz --> overclocked to around 4.3 GHz 16 GB DDr 4 RAM with XMP enabled 3600 MHz Gigabyte RTX 3070 TI 750 Watt Power supply (corsair) ASROCK Z390 PRO4 Thermals are fine btw i never got over 50 C while the errors happened, it was under low load I really appreciate every answer that helps in any ways Tanks in advance

I'm trying to OC my 13700k and it seems to be stable after a 30 mins cinebench stress test @ 5.7Ghz 1.55v (P Cores) with max temp of 91 C I know overvolting decreases the lifespan of the CPU, especially with an OV this high. I'm wondering by how much if I keep it running at 1.55v for around 7-8 hours a day, 7 days a week. Dunno if I lost the silicon lottery, but I can't seem to be running it stable with any voltage below that. Should I keep the OC for the little bit of extra performance or revert back to stock turbo settings for the sake of longer lifespan? (5.4Ghz, 1.38v) Your opinions?

I was planning on buying a budget prebuilt gaming pc from the manufacturer named IPASON. This PC has a motherboard by the name of the PRO A520M-C - Micro-ATX AMD A520 Business Motherboard. (link at the bottom) As far as I know, this motherboard cannot be overclocked, and has a basic, non-customizable BIOS. It will be fitted with an unlocked Ryzen 5 5600G. However, it cannot be overclocked with this BIOS. Is it possible to flash a BIOS from the likes of gaming brands and then be able to overclock at that point? Oh, and is this motherboard capable of being fitted into a different case, (proprietary/ non proprietary) if repairs are necessary? Thanks Link: https://www.amazon.com/PRO-A520M-C-Motherboard-Reliability-Manageability/dp/B08GZX4PV4

I recently upgraded from a I5-8400 to a Ryzen 7 7700x and have undervolted and over clocked it. The default speed that I got with precision Precision Boost Overdrive was around 5.2 - 5.3 Ghz at 1.385V and at 95c. Did a little experimenting and got this under volt and a little over clock working. The temp after running a test for an hour never went over 83c. Other then some minor driver issues I'm happy with my setup. What about you guys?

It's my old 13-year-old rig, running on an Asus Sabertooth X58 Motherboard. I'm trying to learn the basics of overclocking on this before I try anything newer. I can't get above the base speed of 3.06 GHz for my CPU and 1333 for my RAM. Any suggestions?

Hello i am looking for advice on AMD PBO in Bios System AMD 5600x, Asus B550-f (latest bios), 32gb Corsair 3200 c16 4x8, Windows 11 Home I have had my 5600x a couple of months after upgrading from FX8350 so the bios is very different but i have been messing about in bios since i got the system just to get some understanding, I heard that with an undervolt you can make massive gains with pbo2 so give that a try why not? I applied -5 per core in curve optimiser all the way up to -30 and i noticed that power consumption was actually going up which was not what i was expecting or looking for with the current price of electricity in the UK. Performance also was better Stock+Asus Performance Enhancement+DOCP 105w Package 77w Cores 66c +125mhz+-30 per core PBO2+ DOCP 109w Package 85w Cores 78c +200mhz +-30 (4cores)-25(2cores)+docp and 0.2150v negative vcore offset 74w Package 50w Cores 50c The above the highest score i achived in CB23 with -30 per core +125mhz+docp although this was unstable WHEA showed thread 0, 4 and 5 had caused a random crashes so i have backed off of core 2 and core 0 to -25 cpu power consumption was 108w Package 84w Core(s) temps were hitting 80c which is good/fine but not what i wanted. I kept the pbo settings as is and applied a negative offset to the vcore of 0.2150v which is the maximum before the pc would crash before loading windows i applied a level 4 llc and some other vrm settings to extreme now power consumption is 74w on the package and 50w on the cores with temps at 50c under load and my cinebench score is 10400 which im happy with single core performance and gaming performance is up from stock. My question is have i more or less got things right with these settings (included pics all bios settings) or am i missing something? Why does Asus have two PBO2 settings menus one in AI Tweaker and one in Advanced? I found asus performance enhancement to be only useful when running "stock" still not sure what that is doing really I will continue to stress test i dont think im gna keep the rest of the cores at -30 i have Ryzen Master but i would prefer to use the bios for settings sorry for pic spam any information is appriciated.

Hi, I’ve changed from a 3080 FE to MSI gaming x trio 6950 XT, I’m new to AMD cards completely, I’m having trouble gaining any performance when upping clock speeds and memory, even seperately. Benchmarks such as Heaven and Firestrike run when clocks are set high but doesn’t set higher scores. Does anybody have any ideas why? I can’t seem to find perfcap reason in GPU-Z I’ve tried more clock tool with no luck, And with minimal and full driver versions Temp max 73 degrees core clock max 2807 (set to 2850) power max 360 (pwr limit 112% max) TIA

Hi all, as title says, planning a new watercooled build. Currently have a 3800XT and a 3080 12GB (FTW3 Ultra to be overclocked) cooled by a single 30mm thick 360 rad. Definitely not buying another GPU for a while, may upgrade CPU in 6 months to a year. Planning to use the Hyte Y60 for this, with the following rad config: Side intake (60mm thick 240 rad or 45mm thick 280 rad) top exhaust (currently used 360 rad) rear 120mm intake/exhaust. My main question is to do with the side intake. Is it worth it to use a 60mm thick 240mm rad instead of the 45mm thick 280? Not sure if the extra thickness at this point would be worth the extra space. Would push & pull fans make the thicker rad more effective? Dealing with ambient temps around 25C max. Curious to hear thoughts on whether this kind of rad config would be enough for the GPU overclocked and PBO on the CPU. Thanks in advance!

So my GPU doesn't seem like its performing as well as it usually does. I used to be able to overclock it in msi afterburner (+200 core clock, +75 memory clock, power limit 123%, and temp limit 90C) and it would run perfectly fine, until recently when my games kept crashing so I had to revert it to +175 and +50. Its not a thermal issue because it runs at 50C-58C constantly, and it gets pretty cool air, with 2 fans as intake, and 2 as outtake. I just don't know why this could even happen.

Hello I have recently purchased parts to build my own PC. After a couple of weeks, the D.O.C.P started to crash my PC. Now everytime I disable and enable it, I get a F9 error on my motherboard and enters safe boot mode. I have an ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII HERO WI-FI, AMD RYZEN 9 5900x and 64GBs of Corsair Vengeance PRO RGB 3600MHz, CL18. P.S: I have reinstalled the BIOS a couple of times already, didn't help.

Currently in the very early stages of planning a new-ish build. This build will most likely initially contain my current motherboard, CPU, and GPU combo. GPU will stay the same if I eventually go with a new platform when we get through these upcoming launches. Machine will mostly be used for gaming, and some 3D modelling - MasterCAM and SolidWorks. Current Specs: RTX 3080 12GB (EVGA FTW3 HydroCopper) with plans to overclock. Ryzen 3800XT - mild PBO enhancements PSU: second-hand EVGA GQ 1000W Gold unit. Going to wait until the dust settles after upcoming launches, but I may not go with a newer platform. Still unsure, but may upgrade to a better mobo with a 5900x. Also considering Intel but that's a topic for a different post. MasterCAM will greatly benefit from better IPC and core count for some toolpaths, so I'm preparing for at most a 200W CPU draw in this scenario. Last time I encountered this type of workload I was using 12 out of 16 threads and CPU was drawing 110+W for a few hours working through it. GPU was not affected very much in this situation IIRC. I'm open to re-using my current PSU if anyone could enlighten me on where to find it's production date to at least get some more info on it. I don't know what kind of life it's had but I'd rather prepare for the worst while hoping for the best. It's done me well so far, though it would be nice having something a wee bit smaller and fully modular instead of a permanent 24-pin cable. Recently started getting some coil whine when gaming as well, though I suspect that may be because I'm using a daisy chain cable for one of the 8-pin connectors on the GPU. I've decreased the card's power and temp limit for now since I don't have enough radiator in the loop for both CPU and GPU at the time. MAIN QUESTIONS Considering overclocking and transient behaviour, I'm looking at 1000W units again, and have my eye on an EVGA P2 -1000W Platinum [linked below] for what I'm guessing is a decent price right now ($225 CAD). Also considering options from Seasonic and Corsair. https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=33_1938&item_id=079155 Should I bother spending more on a Platinum rated power supply vs gold rated (of same wattage rating)? After overclocking CPU and GPU, is 1000W fine? Higher? Lower? Planning to build in the Hyte Y60 case, if anyone has any insight to PSU clearance and cable management room in it. Spec sheet says up to 235mm but I don't know how much room that will leave for cable management with the 220mm EVGA P2. Other recommendations are welcome. Thanks in advance!
