Also here's the bios I'm using for z790 apex encore, just to make sure it is shared, but there is nothing special about it. It is just 9905 with the ucode from 9933 so that I don't have to disable intel default and enable MCE every time, as well as cpu fan set to always ignore and armoury crate disabled. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6lzydh3a64mzwdz/z790ae9905uc129andbclkandstuffalreadyset.CAP?st=gyr6acjz&dl=0 (needs usb flashback)

What can i say. After so many years (in this hobby) , i thought i've seen it all. But ... i was wrong. Congrats for this awesome combo (board and cpu) and score !! Die temp ?

1.78v here. Cpu is happy with 1.6v @3.55ghz and voltage curve goes to sky after that. I also wasn't able to validate this cpu above 3.65ghz this time - no matter voltage. I'm going to check some other things later this month (vdda and ldt voltages).

Woah! Thats a proper record! Shows the possibilities with these new tools that have been appearing last couple years for older platforms. Keep pushing!

Nothing special required, just volts and multiplier. If you're having issues on a newer bios, AMD may have done something with the agesa, so use bios flashback to a 2.xx bios instead

Here you go, X04 and X08 inside

Up for sale some more CPUs. 1. Monster water OC G7400. Very close to 5.7GHz Y-Cruncher 1B on water cooling. No reliable LN2 end result with this one. Has AVX-512. SOLD 2. Intel Core i3 12300 My best Core i3 12300. Very easy to bench and rock solid. You can look at my profile for all of the results. Has AVX-512. Price: 240€ + shipping. 3. 6.5GHz Intel Core i7 980X Decent 980X that did 6.5GHz in 6C/6T mode on a very quick test. IMC max is not tested. CPU for someone who wants to learn X58 OC. Price: 70€ + shipping.

It would be very interesting to see something different this time (i mean other than the usual Athlon and Turion Mobile cores).

Remember, keep it fun. 🙂 That's what it's all about.

see you beat your own score and now all them juicy comments are gone ;)

How many you have, at this point :D?

Samsung D 2gbit.

Yes. One of those.

Strong one 💪

Thanks for the good vibes amigos. Alby i'm getting too old for this shit but the ocing bug keeps biting me

Damn good job! Was this one of the ones from me?

Angelo still has it

Good work my friend 👏 keep pushing it 💪

Hey all, You may know me from the prodigious amount of PSC DDR3 that I binned and sold over the years, maybe some strong air results, but not so much from actual BOT submissions or scores. Although I subbed frequently when I first joined the bot, and went cold a couple of times, most of my time in OC became focused on binning for the sake of better understanding and measuring the limits of what hardware can achieve, not climbing the leaderboards. Basically, I tended to be more research-oriented about OC than competitive. Anyway, my single biggest project was binning PSC, and I always had this idea of creating "The PSC Report," a gigantic summary of all my findings. It took me a long time to actually put it together, but recently I finished it! I published it elsewhere, but I didn't want these findings to only be behind a paywall, so I've put it up for free here: [Public] DDR3 Elpida_PSC 1Gbit Rev.D Overclocking Test Report.pdf This report details the results of research conducted into the DDR3 memory IC PSC/Elpida 1Gb Rev.D (A.K.A. "PSC" or "BDDG") in the context of competitive overclocking and binning modeling. This includes a brief history, competitive context, and demystification of nomenclature and identification. This is followed by a detailed overclocking test report, containing statistical models gathered at various points across the IC voltage-frequency curve, percentile binning targets, and analysis of the tested memory modules and the effect of characteristics such as PCB model and speed rating on their performance. We hope that these findings will inspire further research into constructing behavioral models of overclocked computer hardware with statistical and scientific rigor. The scientist in me must acknowledge the report is limited and imperfect, (years late to the party ,) and just barely scratching the surface of the world of PSC overclocking. There's so much ground I could not cover, in particular systematically testing subzero results and investigating whether any robust relationship could be measured between ambient and cold. I'm not the first to conduct a mass binning, but to my knowledge, no single, cohesive work like this has ever been attempted in the history of OC. Even if you're not interested in this area of legacy hardware, I hope my work at least demonstrates that as messy as it can be, it is possible to systematically understand overclocking, and you can learn a lot by doing so! For the "screens or it didn't happen" folks, you can find all of my screens, for PSC and otherwise, archived here. Thanks to the Memelords (you know who you are) for their support, as well as all the other overclockers I've interacted with over the years. Now that The PSC Report is done, I can officially retire Thanks HWBOT for the space.

Inside slut best slut here

As you get older, you tend to get a little slower 😅

Nice card looking good at first page !!!

Mem is slow, with proper mem could do ~6:14 easy at those clocks

Nice score

Can someone help me understand why - for example the Port Royal requirements of showing two separate tabs of GPU-Z - one with initial information and the other tab showing all the hardware sensors - there are so many entries that still only show one tab? I always thought that the required information had a red box around it and anything with a green box was a suggestion (or maybe it is the other way around) and if there were no red or green boxes than everything is mandatory. So how is a submission valid without both tabs? I'm not trying to start trouble - in fact I'm thinking that I'm totally misunderstanding the requirements myself wouldn't mind knowing so I don't state something that isn't true. Thanks in advance! Marco

You are correct. What is in red is required. What is in green is optional. The Port Royal rules example screenshot does not have the red and green boxes and it includes an extra CPU-Z and an extra GPU-Z that are not necessary, so you have to rely on what is written in the table above. I know many people post a second instance of GPU-Z showing the sensors for max core and memory clocks. The rules can vary a little bit between benchmarks so it is always good to check before posting. The Port Royal rules validation requires a valid URL to correspond with the screenshot. CPU-Z CPU tab, CPU-Z memory tab, GPU-Z tab for GPU. All benchmarks as far as I know now require a full desktop screenshot including the Windows taskbar. No clipped, snipped or cropped desktop shots.

Not bad for an old man

Rauf benching AMD, has hell frozen over?

Yep, though on the apex it is the third one up (trace is connected to 6th pin up on the nuvoton chip)

@Papusan I checked, and there’s no such option in the NVIDIA Control Panel.:)

Nice to see results. As the nVIDIA RTX4090 cards must use ECC enabled. @qjak Do you see if this settings can be enabled in nvidia app for 5090? Would be nice to get some answers if this would be needed for 5000 series cards. Better clarirfy this in good time before the results start coming. @Leeghoofd Have you clarified this or is it too early? Thanks

Thanks wait this year computex 😀

A decision has been made for the new Y-cruncher 0.8.6 and future versions: We will only allow the 0.8.6 to be used for 5B, 10B and 25B competitive rankings. The main goal is that we don't want to affect current ranking on benchmarks that have over 20K submissions. Secondly most of the 5B and higher are mainly ambient cooled submissions, with far lesser popularity thus current efforts get rewarded with a low amount of HW points for the top spots (6-15 pts maximum). This versus the 1B ranking where several CPUs get 50 HW points for top spot. Via the numerous PMs it is clear that not all users want to rebench "once" more. This stand versus the ones chasing the globals ofc which obviously don't mind the improved performance as they can to grab 'easy' points. We have debated it internally and took the path that HWBot wants to keep the 1B and 2.5B ranking as is and lock it at maximum Y-Cruncher 0.8.5 version. This taking into account the warning of the developers of both Y-Cruncher and BenchMate about the loss of 'optimal' support with newer hardware or Operating Systems. This decision will have pros and ofc haters, but internal testing showed that the performance gain with the newer version would once more obliterate the current rankings with not only the latest and greatest hardware, but will also have an impact on older CPU gens. So what will happen with future releases of Y-cruncher? Since the 5B and higher presets require a massive amount of memory, we will keep that ranking open for new unlocked performance releases, so rebenching to keep eg top spot and idem ditto points is a must with each new software release. Globals will be added to the 5B preset so people will be motivated to bench it. So this decision is a bit of both worlds, the most fair choice to make from our point of view. Secure the current and open up for a new ranking.

I’ve been testing 2 vs 4 dimm on the Z170/Z270 for some time now and would like to share my experience so far in Geekbench 3. The Gigabyte Z270X Gaming SOC has been the easiest motherboard in my case to push 4 dimm and also the board used here. The testing shown below was done using a i7 7700k processor from Siliconlottery.com and a i3 7350k. Here are two pictures showing 2 vs 4 dimm with everything in the bios at stock: 2dimm: 4dimm: The bios layout of the Gigabyte Z270 gaming SOC is very straight forward. An excellent guide has been published for LN2 usage GIGABYTE Z270 Extreme Overclocking Guide - Overclocking.Guide which I will refer to in my LN2 experience section in this thread (coming soon). -Here are some very useful tools posted by Dino Gigabyte Z270 TOOLS -when pushing memory OC It is possible that the motherboard will fail memory training on the first boot but eventually train after a few failed attempts. If this is the case be sure to check memory tweak in the operating system and verify that RTL/IOL are not loose such as 58/60/13/14 and that your memory frequency has not dropped multipliers. -it seems that setting memory boot mode to disable fast boot helps to avoid the above training issues. -when getting the cpu below -20C it helped me avoid these issues altogether and push memory OC from 3866 to above 4000 MHz cl12-12-12-28 2T using 4 dimm. -I prefer to set memory timing mode to manual as it allows you to change the timings of Channel A but channel B will automatically be changed as well. -setting the cpu to 5ghz and cache to 5ghz was easy and is shown below. When leaving cache clocks to 4.5ghz, the core clocks of 5ghz only needed about 1.25 vcore but to stabilize cache clocks to 5ghz I needed to increase vcore to around 1.55v for my processor on water. -Leaving most voltages and timings to auto worked really well when pushing 4 dimm memory OC. -Anything above 3333MHz I had difficulty pushing 1T for 4 dimm but 2 dimm could boot 1T 3866 pretty easily. At ambient temperatures of around 20C I could sometimes boot 4000MHz but often the RTL/IOL and 3rd timings were loosen but this was solved when getting the cpu below -20C. 4dimm at 3866MHz CL12-12-12-28 2T timings in bios Dram training voltage was very useful when pushing 4 dimm above 3600MHz with tight timings. Here is a comparison of 2 vs 4 dimm at 3866MHz which both were easy to boot on water at +20C. 2dimm 3866MHZ CL12-12-12-28 1T   4 dimm at 3866MHz CL12-12-12-28 2T Bios settings for 5/5ghz and memory 4dimm at 4000MHz cl12-12-12-28 2T Pushing 4000MHz up to 4080MHz with 102 BLCK (Crashed before taking screenshot with cpu on +20C water). Tested 4 dimm at 4000MHz cl12-12-12-28 2T on a i3 7350k using venom cpu pot/KPC inferno. Going below to -20C on the cpu helped tightening RTL/IOL and I was able to push 102 BCLK for 4080 MHz. XTU using 4 dimm at 4000MHz cl12-12-12-28 2T was also no problem on the i3 7350k.   There is a lot of potential for 4dimm OC in benchmarking efficiency vs 2 dimm. I tried 6 different 4 dimm motherboards since the release of Z170/Z270 and the gigabyte Z270 gaming SOC was the easiest to achieve high memory clocks with tight timings in my case. In the next few weeks I will update this thread with 4 dimm memory OC but this time with the i7 7700k and i3 7350k on LN2 for full out scores at full pot. A HUGE thanks to gigabyte (especially Sofos for all your help), siliconlottery.com and Kingpin cooling! I hope others share their experience with this motherboard and 2 vs 4 dimm in this thread.

It's completely unimportant, you will not experience any problems with the new RAID module... The one that you take from Asus it is very outdated. Asus always uses out-of-date modules. The firm is such, all through the ass do. Only: E98D33CD-1AEB-46B1-A4B6-0BB4CC655C26 -Replace body PE Image! BC327DBD-B982-4F55-9F79-056AD7E987C5 -Replace body PE Image! 611F7FDD-C7C6-4CFE-8072-2155D7B25A80 -Replace raw section Also I recommend to completely remove GUID 63F23E9D-5FDA-415E-9C2A-64C4E2A6ECE8 it contains a newer version of ME FW Region 11.8x and an auto-update mechanism that can make the system startup impossible. because in newer versions of Intel blocked the launch CFL on z270/z170/H/B...

Sorry, my bad. Only Matrix can be unlocked. You can try this for up to 1.35V on the GPU s980ti_tool_v01b

Found a 980TI Strix at a gamer and ofc snagged it for the name of overclocking after he told he had 84.9% ASIC Quick test on water can do 1560/2160 stock vgpu/stock vram with ln2 bios.It is v2 with ASP controller and Samsung Ram,pretty much a Matrix without Gpu Tweak voltage control

@Rauf use VGA - DSUB adapter, you will have better CB/CBB regarding Matrix, all cards have similar CBB - around -125*C after restart, after shutdown (power off), around -110*C
