I simply need to know if the voltages I'm seeing on the VID (Max) of WHMonitor are safe, and or what those safe tolerances really are I've searched for a few days and found nothing useful besides the usual "Vsoc Shouldn't go above 1.3" with zero input on the rest of that issue. I am worried for the longevity of the system based on this. I have the following system and the pictures posted below are what my current voltages and relevant details are. Windows 11 /64 Pro AMD Ryzen 9 7950x 4501 Mhz (1.250 VSoC) AsRock X670E Pro RS 2x 16G Trident 6000Mhz ram (1.300v) Samsung M.2 980 NZXT C1200w PSU 1.28 - AMD AGESA ComboAM5PI 1.0.0.7 ( 07/27/2023) Bear in mind this is the first top tier system I've had in near a decade so you may have to talk to me like I'm a dummy. that's okay I need to learn.

Alright, before I go and daily these settings, could anyone tell me if they're safe? PBO is configured with Auto Scalar & Default Limits Asus Core Performance Boost is enabled. Curve Optimiser set to -15 on almost all cores and -10 on two of them (this is what I found to be stable, -30 wouldn't even boot). Core, SOC Voltages are set to Auto, reading as 1.353V and 1.080V in CMOS respectively. In single-threaded workloads, VID reads between 1.2V and 1.26V Clocks range between 4.69Ghz (nice) and 4.95Ghz in single-threaded workloads, steady at 4.6Ghz all-core in Cinebench Max temperatures are around 87⁰C (it's a bit toasty but I think this is all my NH-D15 can do at over 210W all-core) DOCP at 3600Mhz, Auto Voltage reading at 1.352V System Specs: AMD Ryzen 5950X (PBO Enabled, Core Enhancements Enabled) Noctua NH-D15 chromax Corsair Vengence LPX 3600Mhz/C16 (DOCP Enabled) Asus Crosshair Dark Hero VIII X570 Samsung 980 Pro 1TB x2 LG Optical Drive Hotplug 2.5 inch SATA Bay Samsung 870 Evo 2TB Nvidia RTX 3090 Founders LSi 9211-8i HBA 5x Seagate IronWolf Pro 6TB Corsair HXi 1000W PSU

Hello I’m considering ghost spectre 11 on my old laptop with ssd and 8gb if ram and wanted to install a good lite windows 11 (because I heard it’s better in performance) but I’m considered that it may be an account spyware of some sort to steal accounts, is it safe? also is there other lite os better than it in performance for gaming but not too ugly? Thanks.

Hey guys not sure if this is the right part of the site to ask about this but I'll be moving soon for college across country and I'll be taking a plane and I need some help and advice with how I should transport my computer. Currently I plan to disassemble most of the parts leaving the chassis pretty much empty and hand carrying my HDD and SSDs with me along with my GPU and Motherboard but I do plan on leaving the CPU in the Motherboard socket but I don't know if that's safe? I didn't wanna bring the CPU box since it's really bulky but if I have to do so to make sure it's safe please do tell. Everything else besides that will be pretty much be put in their original box. Another concern I have right now is they don't have any anti-static bags big enough for my HDD and I was thinking of using paper bags to use as an alternative as that's what I've seen to do online, is that still viable advice or is that misinformation? I was going to order it online but it would take 2 weeks and my flight is in a week so that was poor planning on my part.

Hello wonderful ltt forum! I came today around, to ask you guys for some good combinations of voltages and clocks on my cpu. Pc config. : CPU: Ryzen 7 2700 GPU: Nvidia RTX 3060 ti RAM: 8x2 GB, 3000 MHz (crosair vengeance) Motherboard: Asus B450-plus w/ uefi Bios (ver. 1804) Storage: 1 ssd m.2 250gb, 1 ssd data 500gb, 1 hdd 2tb; I have a new thermalpaste comming, is the thermal grizzly kryonaut, and I want to make a spring clean on my pc, excluding windows. For now I managed to clock my cpu from 3.4-3.2 GHz (it was a prebuild ant it was capped at 3.4 GHz) at 3.9 and around 1.375 v, I haven't done anything else to voltages or clocks, I just managed to make a stress test at that of 1 min which the max power was 120w with constant 60c° I had a previous attempt at 4 GHz with 1.3v ant it failed miserably. So I closed the pc from button (ik it isn't ok) entered bios and lowered the clocks and increased the voltage, stress tested 1 min and it worked out fantastic. If I haven't mentioned, I have an Artic Esprtos duo 34 cooler which has a rated w cooling of 200 Ish W, the only real problem would be the power supply but il let that to you. (It's a seasonic S12ll-620Bronze )

Hello everyone. So I have Bitdefender Ultimate Security Plus... literally their biggie dickus mode software. But the software I'm desperate to use but unsure about is an alleged Minecraft World converter called: "Universal Minecraft Converter". For example, it claims to convert world save data to Poket edition, Java, etc to Windows and vice versa... I saw this youtube video... ... When I see the youtube comments it appears it works for people who have paid. When I google the software "Is Universal Minecraft Converter A Scam?" 2 websites pop up which use algorithms or something to san for trustworthiness. One was a .org and one was a .com. I think they're https://www.scamadviser.com/check-website/universalminecrafteditor.com and I can't for the life of me reproduce the google search that had the .org one. The .org one had apparently ran MacFee or whatever, Norton, and another software to detect for suspicious activity but passed those 3 software's tests. When I googled the Pryze Software LLC they seem to have a valid location and certification... Many other you tubers have featured the app since 2020. I've been waiting since my childhood to be able to convert my java worlds. But I'd hate to be a sucker. What are your opinions?

Pretty straightforward question. Can I remove the sticker from BeQuiet fans? I'm using a 120mm Pure wings 2 as the exhaust on the back and, especially when the system is cool and the RPM steps down, the white-orange on black spinning logo is very distracting and annoying to the eye. I'm only asking because I heard in some fans the sticker is functional/protective (?) So can I do it on this fan and any suggestions on the best way to do so? (the sticker I intend to remove is the one on the "intake" front side, shon in the image below) Update: I ended up removing it, It went pretty well: the sticker is fairly high quality, and by removing it slowly I managed to leave almost no residue, and the remaining, I removed super easily with alcohol. That being said, the sticker Itself ended up with the superficial layer (the one covering the logo stamp) all wrinkled, and the portion where I started the peeling got pretty destroyed. Overall, The sticker stuck But wasn't a sticky mess. (I'll follow up with some pictures of the removed sticker and the fan)

No matter what settings it boots into safe mode, so I have so far tried the following: * reset back to default (still safe mode) * re-install windows (can use it again now when manually booting into windows, despite jedec RAM speeds & resizable bar not working) * reset CMOS did nothing. * tried installing a older BIOS going from 1620 to 1605 which it allowed me to do but still no improvement. Did I fuck it up or is something else going on? Should I try to remove RAM sticks or other devices and see if the issue goes away? I suspect it might be TPM related.

Hey, I'm in the mists of buying the final two components for my computer and have found that due to multiple circumstances the memory kit I had intended to buy is out of stock everywhere except Newegg and MemoryC. Unfortunately there are no other kits, by another brand, in the UK that have the same specifications; not sure as to why, perhaps due to shortages etc or that the specs are popular with those who have adopted the Ryzen platform. But I digress, is memoryc.co.uk a legitimate website and has anybody had any experience with them before? Also, how does Newegg's warranty policy work for those shipping internationally? Newegg have given me very conflicting information and after searching around myself I have been unable to resolve at a conclusion. Thank you for the help in advance, Stay safe, Lex.

Hey all, So i need something to wipe off the thermal paste off my CPU and CPU cooler. I don't have much options but i found this https://www.hepsiburada.com/star-izopropil-alkol-c3h7oh-sprey-1-lt-p-HBV00000RG64Q?magaza=starkimya It says 99.9% Isopropyl Alcohol but please do take a look for yourself as well, don't rely on my word You guys can use Google translate, since even i don't understand much Turkish for now But please help me in deciding if this is safe for cleaning the thermal paste off the CPU ? I need urgent advice as i have to order today I will be grateful for your kind advice

I have a ryzen 5 1400 I am using now on my gaming rig (used to have 2600, but its in my work machine now... waiting for after scalpers go away to get something better.) I dont need bleeding edge performance, I just want the most stable experience, with least issues. Don't have time to play around with overclocking. What is a "basic" light overclock that i can throw on that will not screw me up, but not leave too much performance on the table?

Hello, So I would like to encrypt my PC drives. It's all well and good to have secure passwords but you can easily take out a drive and plug it into another PC, load up linux and see everything. I'm trying to avoid that scenario. What types of protection do you use for your drives?

Hey everyone, Tonights my first night trying to overclock my I7 6700K, the reason I'm overclocking is because of Microsofts flight sim, basically the airliners hurt the fps to the point 1 of them is unplayable and this has nothing to do with my graphics card which is a 1070, its all cpu so as a result i figured that I'd give overclocking a go. I started at 4.6 but that required at least 1.390 on the power which generated temps over 85c. I tried 4.5ghz, the lowest I could get that was 1.330 without it crashing and i was still hitting 80 on 100% load on a short test. I've now moved it down to 4.4ghz with 1.300 and left it running the sim all night and its averaging between 64-75C with the highest it ever reached being So my questions are: is there anything I could do to prevent 4.5ghz or 4.6ghz from getting past 80 smoothly? If my average temps are 60-75 in high cpu demanding games but i get spikes to 81 on a rare occasion, is that spike something i should be concerned about? I changed the memory settings to profile 1 which took it from 2133 to 2400 as part of tutorial on it, is this recommended?

cpu temperature Is 83c safe for CPU temperature?
Kozouki posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Hello, im using an i5-4460 @ 3.20Ghz cpu and the temperature goes up to 83c when I render some projects. Is it safe for my cpu or will it cause damage if I let it render for many hours? Ps: I don't know much about some of the specs of my computer has since this was only given to me and it is second hand.- 8 replies

I know there are products to ground yourself. But I don’t want to spend extra money on something I’m just going to use once. Are there any other ways I can be safe without needing to be grounded? (Good general practices, type of flooring?, clothing? Etc) thanks

Using Ryzen Master to OC my 3600X. Got to 4.4 All core at 1.375V. Before I start backing the voltage down seeing if I can maintain it at .35 or .325 what is the actual max safe for normal use on Zen 2? Would .385 or .395 be safe to see if I can push to 4.45 or 4.5?

Hello. I been looking for indoor security camera as i live in a very clouded area. I have been looking on Amazon for TP-link c200 and Wansview Q5. So my question is, what indoor security camera to go for? Let me know, what to go for, this is just what i been looking at the most! What i need is: Motion-sensor (so it sends me an notification on phone and record when being alerted) Night-vision. Full HD. Rotation (Not Necessary). and then i want the option to save it straight to SD Card aswell. It seems that most of the security webcams needs payed services, and that im NOT looking for. - Hope you can help me! Maybe other guys can use this thread! - Collapz

Hello everyone, I have a question about what would be the safe temperatures for the VRMs in my case. I have a Gigabyte Z370HD3P with a i7 8700 non-K so no OC at all in a Fractal R6 case with the fans left in their default position. I've set the fans to run at all times and slowly ramp up as temps get higher and I'm not sure how to set the rear fan because by default my motherboard assigned it to the vrm sensor and it get really loud really quickly. Those Fractal fans are not as silent as they say they are. I've noticed that the temps for the VRMs at least when running prime95 hits 85C and maybe if I let them it will go higher. The question is what are some safe temperatures for the VRMs to operate at? Because I've searched a bit today and even here on this forum granted posts from some time ago, people say contradictory things. Some say keep them under 80C at all times, some say 100C is normal for them, some 125C is still within spec and some say even 150C is ok for VRMs. From 80C to 150C that's a huge gap. So what is it? What would be some safe idle temps and load temps? Or does that depend from motherboard to motherboard? Should I be worried? Or since I'm using a locked processor it just doesn't matter? Oh and I've found this on a review of the board "The motherboard is in a 4+3 phase VRM, and it uses zero doubling. It uses the Intersil ISL95866 PWM controller in 4+3 mode. It adds multiple ISL6625A on the CPU and iGPU rails to enhance phase count. The CPU VCore VRMs use double the number of MOSFETs per phase, while the iGPU phases use the standard number. On Semiconductor NTMFS4C06N is the low-side MOSFET, and the NTMFS4C10N is the high-side MOSFET for each of the power stages. The memory VRM uses a Realtek RT8120D for a single phase PWM with driver and then three On Semiconductor NTMFS4C06N in a two-low one-high MOSFET configuration. More Realtek RT8120 controllers are used for the VCCSA and VCCIO rails." <This is something beyond my understanding. Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, not exactly sure if this is the correct section to post my question, but maybe it is due to my question. If the section is wrong, then I ask a moderator to move it to its right place. I have an i7 8700 cooled with an Arctic Freezer 34 Duo, Z370 motherboard (why a Z motherboard if I have a locked processor? Because the Z motherboard was cheaper and I wanted it) anyway, a Gtx 960 which will be replaced next year and a Samsung 970 evo plus nvme ssd. All in the Fractal Design R6 with the stock fans. My question is can I set the case fans to stop entirely when the system is either in idle or light work loads like browsing the internet, installing a game, etc. ? Basically my question is if my system does nothing demanding then do the case fans need to be running? Or can I just set them to turn on when the CPU is at x temperature? Like let's say the CPU temps hit 60C then the case fans start to spin at 50% as an example. Is that safe for the all hardware? Or the safe bet is have them running consistently but at a low rpm and link them to the CPU or GPU and as soon as the temps go up then have the case fans increase in rpm. Also to what should I link them to? To the CPU or GPU temps? I do play games.
