elmor Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 Cheers guys, small update to the OC guide. Mostly a few error corrections but also added info on timer skewing and HPET. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rne Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Nice one! Finally there is some bus speed adjustment back, giving more headroom for perf. tweaking. nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex@ro Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Jon,can you put some info about cpu binning like what do good cpu's do and what bad do,is scaling linear like best on air = best on cold,are there any hard-walls ? Also CPU-NB appears to be linked to DRAM Clocks from what i see in screenshot,is it possible to adjust it independtly? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks LOL 3.9 bad 4.1 good. you want to spend $329.00 USD at min to bin for a water/air chip to gain 100-200? $500 chip binning for ln2 will get expensive quick.

Also CPU-NB appears to be linked to DRAM Clocks from what i see in screenshot,is it possible to adjust it independtly? Thanks No strong correlation so far, all depends on scaling with temp/voltage as usual. Good air chip with good scaling is what's needed for a good LN2 chip. Fabric, IMC and DRAM all run at the same frequency and is not adjustable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Thanks Jon, I made a good choice to get the Crosshair board again, but they wouldn't sell me a CPU before NDA lifts. Now it's national holidays and I have to wait until monday, but don't know which chip to get. It seems they all clock the same +/- 200MHz, but you probably have 4 - 4.1 pretty much guaranteed with 1800X. Anyone tested 1700 and 1700X under LN2? I know AMD wants to promote their flagship CPU, but not convinced it is worth it atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flanker Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I read a lot of review and seems, Ryzen scaling with RAMs clock in games also solid I will try test to Superpi 32M vs RAM at locked 4 GHz CPU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5erveD Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Wasn't amd allways good in scaling with ram in coralation to perf. At least that was my understanding Verstuurd vanaf mijn MotoG3 met Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
