General overclocking

Basics: ASUS Z390-A MOBO i5-9700 uP CLK 3.4 Water cooled with avg temps around 60C Problem: On boot up I was getting a consistent 42% OC notice then last week is just dropped down to 27% on boot up. bazoo cam Any idea what would cause this drop - out of the blue? omegletv Thanks Michel

Kingmax FLKE85F-B8KJAA feis 2200mhz ram is elpida hyper? CL9 can be elpida hyper?

I've been trying to flash to flash the 1.2v firmware to my epowers but i can't seem to get it to work the included app never detects that its connected, dfu-tool in linux sees it but can't get it out of application mode and into dfu mode, i've also tried messing with what usb drivers the devices are using with zadig but no luck there. Has anyone got this to work?

hello everyone I've got a clevo p751dm2-g and i heard about prema mod bios who unlock overclocking settings do you know where i can get it or if you have another mod bios that unlock oc settings thanks

Hello all! So I have been trying to get hold of a 3090 Kingpin card in the UK now since launch. However, like most I have had no such luck?!! One of the main reasons I have been sticking to the Kingpin is because the classy tool is very much available to everyone and the card is kitted for overclocking without the need for shunt modding etc. I do intend on using Ln2 in the future so feel this is a relevant factor. I have been looking into the GALAX HOF cards and would love to pull the trigger on one, especially as they come up for sale way more often in the UK however I am apprehensive to do so as I have read up about their NVVDD Tool and it appears it is not ju…

Hi, i've just upgraded my ram from a DDR4 F4-3200C16D-16GTZB to F4-3600C14D-32GTZNA, everything seems to work fine, the DRAM i have won't go into Command Rate of 1N, if i try it, it will NOT POST. Should i try what someone suggested in the HardwareCanucks forum recommended someone else and raise the voltage to make Command Rate 1N possible and by how much? These pair of RAM are not on the QVL as well on EVGA's site. Any suggestions?

I'm sure this topic has probably been exhausted but please bare with me. I use a modified air conditioner to cool my loop which never normally gets close to sub zero temps, However due to this recent nice and cold UK wintery weather yesterday the coolant in my res turned to slush! big panic my side as you may imagine! So my question is, is it ok to use Antifreeze in my loop? Its not something I wanna gamble with if it has the potential to eat away the seals over time in my water block etc. If anyone has any advice or experience with this it will be greatly appreciated. ? I'm using Ek supremacy block (acetal) D5 Pump Soft tubing EK Res

I have a 5900x cpu with a 6800xt. My motherboard is a ASRock 570 phantom gaming 4. I recently upgraded my ram to patriot viper steel 4000mhz ... No matter what speeds I put in the bios the settings will not stick.. my PC will boot but the settings do not change in the bios. Can anyone out there help thanks. https://9apps.ooo/

I have 4x8 of G.Skill Ripjaw V rated at 3600mhz, but when I try to load the XMP profile of the RAM it causes massive instability. My cpu is an i9-11900kf and motherboard is an ASRock Z590-C/ac. Computer is perfectly stable without using RAM XMP profile. I have tried increasing the RAM voltage as high as 1.45v and no dice. Anything else I should try?

I am running a 5800X with a 3080 and got some Patriot Viper 4400 ram (4x 8gb). However, it cost me $300 USD here in Canada. With my Noctua NH-D15 blocking airflow over the ram, I am struggling to keep the ram under 50C, especially with the ram on the CPU side. Otherwise, the cpu cooler is perfectly fine. Would I get more perf VidMate ormance out of buying better ram or by getting an AIO for the CPU so I can get more air onto the ram to cool it? The ram is currently running at 3800 CL17. And if it's better ram, what would you suggest? Mobdro

We all know that P45 has memory div 3:5 bug, but I still wonder: 1. Does this bug exist in all P45 boards? For exmaple, is in all DDR2 and DDR3 board? is in all chipset rev. A2 and A3? 2. If not all P45 board have this bug, how can we confirm that when we use 3:5 ?

Let's spill some beans. Here is all I know about geekbench3 feel free to join in. 1. The best scoring versions for intel CPU's with 16 cores or less is 3.1.5 get it here https://www.dropbox.com/s/4q0xuvioq8opx30/Geekbench-3.1.5-WindowsSetup.exe?dl= (New version 3.4.3B3 here has potential. Need more testing. https://geekbench.s3.amazonaws.com/Geekbench-3.4.3b3-WindowsSetup.exe ) 2. Best scores are with no microcode bios on z490. You will see e-penis scores with microcode because its boosts the mem sub-score but the total score is around 300 points less at 5.3ghz on 10900k. 53600 with MC, 53900 without MC. 10k mem score doesn't matter when you are losing so much …

I accidently chose the wrong benchmark for this submission. how to delete it? There is no 'delete icon' anymore... https://hwbot.org/submission/4593439_tonytony_3dmark___fire_strike_ultra_geforce_rtx_3070_10_marks

How is this possible, it works surprisingly well with minimal ghosting. Did I happen to get a golden sample or is this possibly a reject 240hz panel from Samsung? I could go as high as 270's before I had issues.https://omegle.onl/ vshare

No, I'm not using a laptop, so cooling isn't an issue. I read in a couple places that maxing out the core clock is totally fine, but idk where to start with the memory clock, which is probably the thing that causes crashes if OCed too high. I've never overclocked anything personally, but I've seen quite a bit of it watching tech channels on youtube. I'm also using MSI afterburner.https://9apps.ooo/

Hi, I tried to use Inspectre but it doesn't seem to work. Trying to get 5000 score in Cinebench R15 so I'm trying to get extra performance. People on HWBot managed that with my settings but I still can't quite get there. Any help will be appreciated! I'd love to get that 5000 CB run. Any help would be ultra ultra appreciated. So far I got the score to 4888 in CR15 with 5.0Ghz rock solid stable with temps between 71 and 83. RAM is set to 4000Mhz CL15 or CL14 with 1.55V on RAM. I'm using XOC BIOS for X299 Dark without any mitigations here: https://xdevs.com/guide/e299ocg/#biost I just want to be sure it works I might install 1709 Win…

anyone got any tips for overclocking Conroe cups, like how high these cpus can clock the fsb, and what a good conroe cpu should do core wise in benchmarks like wprime 32m, superpi 32m, and pifast. And knowing the cold bug and cold boot bug of these cpus

Over the next few months, I hope to set up several benching systems. How do people get around using Windows 7 on a large number of PCs, with only 3 or 4 running at a time (if I'm going to run CPU benchmarks that take hours, I may as well run a few at the same time). Is it legal to only have 4 licenses if I am only using it on 4 PCs at any one time? Am I at risk of prosecution if I don't have separate licenses for each system in my collection? Would I have a problem if I only had one license? Is there any type of license that allows Windows 7 to be installed and activated on multiple systems? Finally, if I install without a code, and don't activate it, would that affect be…

Hello,i tired...i tried everything,alot of profiles,alot of guides,the guide from msi also.....in the end i stabilize my system at 5.0gz 1,315v..but my tempetures are high not sure...at Cinebech i get 94c and on Intel Extreme Tuning Bechmark 93c,in Prime95 no avx no errors and around 85c after 30min.in game 2 hours (Blade and Soul full grafics)i get max 60c ,i tried the turbo boost only(4,8zh) and on Cibech and Intel Exrteme Tuning Bechmark test i get 66c how is this possible....and i have custom loop watercooling EK-KIT X360(- Radiator: EK-CoolStream XE 360 (Triple)- Radiator size: 400 x 130 x 60mm (L x W x H) from the best in market...why i get so high temp 94c on Cineb…

Hey guys! I tried the copy-waza tweak with SuperPi today for the first time, as GtiJason explained in this: https://community.hwbot.org/topic/167622-spi32m-help-needed/ thread. However I couldn't get the benchmark to finish with the tweak, because it always says "Not Convergent in SQR05". I first assumed it demands very high stability, so I lowered the bclk from 195 to 173, and the issue isn't solved, but it finishes without waza at 206 bclk. Have anybody experienced this before? If so, what was the solution?
