Easy 7800X3D Tuning and PBO2 Undervolting Guide

[@MarcoGPUtuber]

I undervolted and now I can hit the notification for Tech YES City videos faster than ever!

[@gangaindenial]

without hitting 89C

[@Atilolzz]

I think its very important to always double check if the undervolting worked by using cinebench. Because undervolting slightly too much wont make you immediately blue screen, but you get so called Clock Stretching, meaning it looks/"acts" like you get the desired clock speeds, but in an absolute test (like cinebench) you get a lower score.

[@xchirpimabirdx8816]

I agree. I always use hw info and look at the effective clock while doing an all core workload. Whichever cores are not reaching the boost clock is not good on the negative offset. I have -30 on all but 2 cores at -25 due to this effective clock seen on hw info.

[@mircomputers]

Are you sure curve offset does this? Afaik, this only happens with voltage offset.

[@dallas88b]

Excellent Bryan, Thank you mate. I previously followed your advice on undervolting an older Intel CPU I had and it worked a treat. Now I have a AMD 7800X3D and again your advice is most appreciated. Living north of Brisbane with no Air Conditioning I am happy to reduce the heat output and living in Albo's Australia with his power charges I am happy to reduce power consumption too !

[@GT1GT]

Thx for the video. Got -30 stable running Cinebench for 10 minutes. Went from a score of 17611 to 18175, now will see how stable all my games run. If any crashes I will make sure to down the -30 to -20. Package 81.5C, Cores(Max) 79.1C So good to go, all under 80C Clocks 5 MHz across the board. Using a 360 AIO. Cheers.

[@roB3rnd]

Long time overclocker with experience. Cinebench stable with these chips using curve optimiser is easy. However, they can seem stable but will crash infrequently if there is no load at all or dropping from high to low load. You can test with CoreCycler, but it's much more time consuming than with Zen 3 non X3D. TL;DR plenty of these are cinebench stable at -40 but will crash under no load until you dial them back to around -30.

[@kiam9941]

for instance i had two very slow cores that needed -20 even

[@B3tterEv3ryDay]

I was so happy when i used -30 offset on my ryzen 5900x , only to have it error it immediately when testing with singlecore and bluescreened me. In the end after a lot of testing , not 1-2h on all core ,which its pointless, 2+3 h on each core, i could say that -10 offset was stable on all cores, regardless of load.

[@123TheCloop]

thank you, CO results NEED to be tested in idle conditions because ryzen cores down volt which is why they can crash when you offset (drop the voltage curve) so in idle situations the core literally isnt getting enough power (think it like a GPU crashing when down volting) its a little complex than that but im annoyed he thinks just -30 and cinebench are "how you test curve optimizer"

[@CarnivoryHODL]

@@roB3rnd -30’s been great for me. So you’re saying -40 would be bad if going from gaming to browsing, for example?

[@roB3rnd]

@@CarnivoryHODL or just less load in games can also randomly crash. Just anything from high boost clocks to less clock on any given core.

[@dillon4813]

Nice video. Thank you. Its crazy mobos and amd have defaulted so high. Just -30 and you get smoother and consistently higher fps with lower temps. Thats an insane gain so easily done.

[@alemanmx1980]

I rarely post but there are some misconceptions in this video (not blaming Tech, you're doing what you can and the content is relevant and entertaining!). I have binned 5+ 7800X3D and while it seems initially that all of them can do -20 all core CO, they rarely pass real stress tests. Only 1 out of 7 can do -30 throughout the cores, and in some instances, some individual cores barely can do -5. PLEASE TEST YOUR CPUS PROPERLY. Having said that, I dont think CO is too relevant for 7000s, especially how YES also noted, you dont necessarily save on temp, it just boosts higher/longer. Therefore I suggest getting a very good cooler coupled with CO and dont worry if your CPU doesnt CO too much. ANOTHER thing Ive noticed is that some CPUs are just binned higher (better VID), where they run at 4890MHz out of the box (CB23) while others barely break 4850MHz with -20 CO. Finally, there is no correllation between CO and Max FCLK or MAX Bootable RAM Frequency. I much rather have a CPU that can do 6600MHz 1:1 at 2200MHz than one that can do -40 CO All Core. My best 7800X3D can do avg -25 CO (some cores -35, others -10), does 6400MHz 1:1 C28, FCLK 2133MHz with 100MHz or -5 CO All Core @ 105MHz (eCLK). EDIT: Also read about CLOCK STRETCHING.

[@mircomputers]

yeah, curve optimizer stability is much harder than intel offset or lite load undervolt to test in my experience. I also cant seem to get Core Cycler to ever error on me with zen5, might be missing something. It did work for zen4 and actual curves were in the range of 5 to 30 on most CPUs... pretty wild actually and that -5 core would cause maybe 1 crash every other month.

[@ferdi6346]

I totally agree, thats what we call Sillicon lottery. For me personally every core has different values that i found out by running Prime95 with every new offset for atleast 2hrs, once a core crashed i just set it to the next stage. Startingpoint was -40 ended somewhere between -21 to -29 for different cores. Did the same for my friend he had complete different results. One core could manage to run -38 while core 2 always crashed over -10. Ofc after running prime95 successful you should also try other things to somehow stress the cpu.

[@123TheCloop]

yeah I pointed this out in his 5700X3D and in this video. you rarely stress test CO results. as most of the cores primarirly crash at idle states and he also ignored the most glaring issue that in lot of cases can net you less performance and thats clock stretching. so while maybe -30 looks stable and doesnt crash, it doesnt also mean its the best result as you could be clock stretching to a point your losing performance. overall its a bad video imo, 2 crucial pieces of information were just left out, which is using Corecycler or ycruncher to test cores individually over several days of continious testing and clock stretching NEEDS to be observed when setting CO offsets

[@mircomputers]

@@123TheCloop does corecycler work for you to test core stability on Zen 5 ?

[@connostyper]

@@123TheCloop there is nothing wrong with the video. It shows the test improvements and how to test. With any instability you dial back. There is no way you will face clock stretching if you do it as the video. He also mentioned that is best to start with -10 probably a setting that most cpus will be fine. You set and test. He never said set it to -30 and forget about it, test it.

[@Targetlockon]

[@BrolicPineapple]

Went from 17268 pts to 18015 pts pretty significant increase by putting it at -30 thanks bro

[@B3tterEv3ryDay]

Stop testing all cores workloads, it s pointless, you can test on a processor -30 offset and will not get an error for days, the moment you test each core individually it will error in seconds/minutes. Use tests like OCCT single core test or Prime95 with core cycling.

While in the CS2 Benchmark I got around the same fps (730fps +-2fps) but the P1 value is dropping from 300fps to around 277fps.

Higher SoC voltage is needed for higher RAM frequency, while lower SoC voltage is better for higher FCLK speeds like 2200MHz. I have set SoC at 1.26v and run stable 6400cl30-38-30-44 with all other timings manually tuned. It's in 1:1 ratio with FCLK at 2133MHz.

Should be interesting to see what we can tweak with the 9800X3D with the changes they said they are making to it

[@pwn3426]

very very minimal

[@ErraticPT]

​@pwn3426 We'll have to wait and see, as zen 5 now has a new "curve shaper" function that allows much finer control of voltages according to cpu (or individual core) load/temperature and "recent history", ie is the core speed/load/temperature ramping up or down compared from a few (fractions of) seconds ago. This could be a game changer as crashes often occur when voltages over/under-shoot with big changes in load.

@@ConnorH2111 doesnt matter what your using, -30 offset is not stable if your getting WHEA errors, (these are core crashing errors) should be Event ID 19 if its a core crash. His video is to be frank just poorly informed, any offset value YOU NEED to test under idle conditions (this is usually when core crashing occurs) which he just misses completely (either intentional or ignorance) If your getting WHEA errors and its not an Event ID 19 error (something else) then its more than likely not the CPU but a bios issue, it happened a few times on Ryzen 5000 with some bios revisions causing WHEA errors. But please, dont use OCCT/cinebench or pimre95 to "test offset values" download corecycler (which does use prime95 ironically) but its on a per core basis and does random work loads at varying usage levels per core. you need to run this for a good 3+ days when testing offset values and see if any cores are flagged as "crashing" or failing in the program. Then you need to use something like cinebench to watch for what is known as "clock stretching" which is basically the difference between your effective clocks and "core clocks" value in HWInfo, any difference greater than 15mhz means your CPU is reporting an incorrect clock speed mometarirly due to not enough voltage to the core/thread so as a result misreports the clock by throttling down to match the given voltage supplied. (again something he grossly doesnt mention) So while that -30 could be stable even after corecycler testing, it might actually be yielding worse performance than lets say a -25 offset due to clock stretching

[@icandrive4]

@@tibi.t I'am using Curve Optimizier for my 7800X3D -30 and combine it with curve shaper. But you need to test the values especially for the curve shaper independantly for your specific cpu, because silicon quality may varie and your cpu may need some higher voltages then mine to work on the corresponding frequencys etc. In my Case I am using my 7800X3D on a ASUS ROG Strix B650-A Gaming with the newest UEFI Version, which I believe also introduced the curve shaper. In terms of Curve shaper you need to know, that the feature was introduced by AMD with the Ryzen 9000 Seriec CPU's and may not work as intended like in the presentations tho.

what’s the max ppt for the 7800x3d ? Tdc & edc are motherboard related. it has to do with vrm’s voltage

[@bigcreoman]

On 9:41 I see lower AVERAGE fps, 1c temperature win. what a undervolt OMG

[@bigcreoman]

WIN IN CS, that goes on ryzen 3600x? f#ck it.... why 7800x3d is limited by 90w

[@bigcreoman]

it has TDP120w, WHERE IT IS? WHERE 120w and more

[@light3267]

Watch for the effective clock speeds in HWINFO64, not the regular ones to see if the clocks are stretching.

[@dorian1003]

I set pbo scalar x10. I noticed that having scalar x10 gives me best performance in games and cinebench23r. Also I set bclk on 101 and max cpu boost clock override to +200 and now my cpu is 5100 GHz stable in games, curve optimizer -26. Is it save or is gonna kill my chip?🤔

[@gimbleguy]

Brian can you please use Aida64 > Benchmark > Sha3 test for your cpu to see if your Overclock is stable??

[@mbardos]

I'm curious how many chips set to - 30 fail the prime95 small tests... Mine fails in a few minutes at - 20. Only managed to get it stable with - 15

[@DieselX99]

7800x3d (Curve Opt. is at -39, -40 was too low) with D15 Cooler, ambient temp. 26-27 Celsius, x670P-Wifi MB, 6000MHz DDR5 CL30, Taichi 7900XTX and I'm averaging 18200-18500 points in Cinebench (10 minutes), CPU temp was around 85-88 Celsius, Throttling is set to 92. 😅 Should I fine tune it more, or is it good? It's stable while I play, or stream as well (CPU Encoding x264 with OBS, 3440x1440, but stream is FHD). Edit: Changed to -30 and Throttle temp to 80, avg. 17300 points in Cinebench. Goes back to -39 and 92. Still looking for advices. Thank you!

[@Berkelll]

buy AIO cooler.

[@DieselX99]

Bought an AIO, tested the cores with Prime95. SoC 1.150V, Curve Optimizer: 1-5 Core -39, Core 6: -35, Core 7: -38, Core 8: -37. Prime95 Test duration (Blend all of the above): 6 Hours, 500 Tests, 0 errors. Cinebench: 18531 pts @4.85Ghz with peak temp. 78 Celsius. I can maybe fine tune it more, but wanted to test it with games + streaming. 65% CPU usage (x264 encoding), 60 Celsius, and because of the AIO, I have better airflow in the Case, this means that my GPU temps are also lower on 100% usage, it sits now at 65 Celsius (80 Celsius Hot-Spot).

​@@DieselX99dudeeee i got AIO but idle at 47-50c and 84-88c full loaddd Im so badd so dumbbdk how to dooo 😭😭😭😭

[@DieselX99]

@@RoyZennet Optimize your AIO fans and pump and case fans. I mostly use only a "line", that means that I have the case fans on the following: 1 Celsius @ 30%, 78 Celsius @ 100%, Sys Fan step-up and step-down time (CPU Temp) 0.3 sec. on all fans (That means that your fans won't change the RPM so suddenly and fast). Try a "lower" number for the Curve Optimizer, start at negative 10 or 15 (Same branded CPUs are different), Thermal Throttling limit to 80 or 85, run a Cinebench (put HWInfo in the background for Temps), and then use Prime95 (at least 6 hour constant testing), and learn how to optimize your CPU Curve per Core. It's not complicated, but takes some time.

[@RoyZennet]

@@DieselX99 the problem is, the CPU itself already sitting at 48c on BIOS

[@MiniDevilDF]

We need a better and faster way to quickly tell us the highest curve optimizer setting per core. It takes a fair amount of time, at least a few hours, to do it all manually to maximize per core settings.

[@Rock44Digi]

I'm running -20 all cores, and my 7800X3D is usually at 5.04ghz while gaming. At -0 all cores, it was the same. Thoughts??

[@Antihero82]

Do I need to undervolt my 7800X3D? I'm using it's IGPU because I'm still saving money and will try to buy GPU maybe next month.

I was able to oc the 7800x3d up to 5150mhz. Busclock from 100 to 101mhz was the key. Im not sure how safe it is, but atm it is stable.

[@normalguylmao]

bus clock modifies everything, not just CPU itself

[@normalguylmao]

Everything that runs on that bus (mhz) will increase by that 1 change

@@normalguylmao that is true, but my sys is still stable.

[@MiniDevilDF]

@@hansmaker1236 How long has it been running like that? Doing that is "usually" okay, but you're still going to run into crashes. Even if it's just once a month. You'll also get all sorts of other random errors from anything else running on the bus.

[@IBaknam]

mine hits 87c in a R23 multicore run when my room is pretty hot with a 240 AIO from arctic. When I play super cpu heavy games like warzone i max out at 74c so 86 is def. too hot

Just set max to 80.

[@talon1706]

My monitor allows 120hz. I get 120 fps now. No need to adjust settings. How many more fps is needed?

[@starlightHT]

It's not true, we can do Oc at 7800x3d even without access to the multiplier. The old way is to gain 150 to 200mhz easily, move the memory back, FCLK and increase the bus speed... Technically it's not worth the time.

[@Hjominbonrun]

watercooling? I have an AM3 air cooler on mine and it is great.

[@yukselarda]

I would adding corecycler and linpack extreme to makle sure the cpu is stable. I can get cinebench to run at -30 all core but during linpack stress test, i did get random resets until i got it down to -20 and -15 on my worst core.

i got my core CO all the way to -50 is that beneficial or no idk if too much will produce anything

I had 17100 score with default setting and 17850 with -30. Is it okay? Idk if i did something wrong, but my CPU going to like 83-84 degree on the full stress test over few minutes.

[@kentuckye_3008]

Please help, I am using 7800X3D and 7900XTX Sapphire nitro+ but in CS2 my GPU usage isn't that good like the footage in this video. I enable PBO like this video, XMP, 4G Decoding, OC GPU, common window optimized. It turns out my FPS average is a lot lower. Like the Machine gun footage that your 7900xtx used 80%ish load but mine is 50-60% result in 100-200 FPS lower.

[@45eno]

I usually just do a light CO of negative-20 or -10 all core as -30 seems to create more stability issues.
