[@pyurologie]

Thanks, I'm glad it was helpful!

[@JamboneMan]

Agreed, I have the 870E Aorus Elite, this was helpful. Unfortunately, the memory tune locked my system up at POST. I had to flash the CMOS and try again. I have Corsair 6400 CL36 memory that came with the board from Newegg. The memory tune was the problem, I think. I'm not liking this memory but not sure if it's worth changing it. I'll have to do some research on how to best set it up to work with this CPU. My GPU is the 4080 Super not the 4090, we'll see how this tune works soon.

[@AlecitoPR]

[@randomanon523]

​@AlecitoPR The board becomes Unstable if RAM is ran hire than 5800mhz. It will brick your shit. I'm stupid because I had the same RAM as Jambo in the previous replies and didn't research and set my shit to 6400mhz I smelt smoke lol DONT TRY IT

[@pyurologie]

yeah i actually wasnt expecting that much of a boost.. its got a good amount of headroom

[@ToysForTheGods]

You are the first KZbin channel I have seen that has broken this down in detail. I tend to spend days fine tuning new builds mainly focusing on getting as steady as possible frame time graph, trying to keep my 1pct and .1pct lows as consistent as possible. It is hard to explain how important this is, and how much tuning actually effects 1440p and 4k, everyone want to argue online about how unimportant high res gaming is in CPU benchmarks. But there is a huge performance difference at high res with up scaling that no one take into account. some Processor do up scaling way better than others, and tuning makes a big difference. I think it has taken Stalker 2 to really make people see how important CPU performance is with up scaling.

[@pyurologie]

thanks for recognizing some of the hard work i put into my content, I really appreciate it. It seems like the large majority of people just parrot what they see in 1 or 2 videos they skim for a few minutes and then act like an expert lol.

[@Darkswordz]

Noice! I have mine set at 5.4Ghz using PBO maximums, but definitely feel like there's more the CPU can give. I have a feeling that this will be a Legendary CPU.

[@monkeywizzi2025]

Did you make OC ?? Is there big difference ??

[@Darkswordz]

@@monkeywizzi2025 I can run 5.4Ghz using +200Mhz that PBO allows. If I try to increase it to 5.5Ghz by increasing the BUS speed the CPU starts using a lot of voltage (1.32v) and temps jump to near 90C. Whereas, at 5.4Ghz I run at about 1.28v under load and temps are at 86C. The performance difference was none, I think because the CPU was running too hot at 5.5Ghz. I'm using -25 Curve Optimizer. My CPU lotter doesn't seem to be as good as some other overclockers, but I'm satisfied with 5.4Ghz stable. At this point, all I care about is stability.

[@monkeywizzi2025]

[@csabauri351]

Nice turorial ! However -40 allcore CO is most likely not stable at all in heavy loads (not gaming). My 9800x3d is only stable at -15 in heavy benchmarks (Prime95 LFFT / Y-Cruncher / OCCT etc) . In games I can do -35 ,but i dont risk the potentional BSOD and corrupted windows/ save files ,so i stick with -15. Tip : you SOC is waaay too high for only 6000 RAM /2000FCLK , you can lower it to 1,15 - 1,2Vfor sure .

[@pyurologie]

that SOC setting only sets high limit. in practice, it only hits around 1.2. I dont usually do synthetic benchmarks as I use these rigs for gaming/editing so they will never see that level of stress its not useful for me personally but thats good to know. Others I spoke to have been running -40 with no issue as well

[@palmz4060]

I run -40 and zero issues, only for gaming. Don’t even bother with synthetic benchmarks.

[@csabauri351]

@@palmz4060 I understand your point of view and i respect it. To me stabe means stable in every scenario . Some games are just as demanding as a synthetic benchmark, for example shader compilation in Stalker2 or The Last of Us . I want my system rock stable all the time and not worry about BSOD. I stresstest my new rigs in the first few days /week ,setting stable OC; and after that forget it and keep playing.

[@pyurologie]

what RAM are you running if you copied the RAM settings?

[@randomanon523]

Im running x2 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6400mhz. I tried setting RAM to 6400mhz and it shit down my PC. It's now running at 4800ish. Is this normal? I've been getting a 08 code which I found out is actually D8. I was told it's related to RAM speed. X870E Aorus Elite WiFi7 9800x3d XFX Magnetic Air 790xtx 24gb x2 32GB Corsair Vengeance ddr5 6400mhz

[@Strixful]

would definitely like to see this done for rust

[@likeaboss5177]

I see that your timings are 32-48-48-32. Does that matter in relation to the RAM timings? For example, would your timings stay the same for these two ram options? (Both DDR5 2x16GB) 30-36-36-76 (CAS latency 30) 36-36-36-96 (CAS latency 36)

[@tankman66]

So I am wondering, and hope you can clarify this, If I understand correctly the x3d turbo mode turns off smt mode automatically when enabled. My only concern is that it may cause microstutters in titles that utilize mutithreading. Since the 9800x3d has a single ccd the mode is not that useful so would it be more ideal to turn x3d turbo off and keep smt on? (I am also aware it may do something with memory as well but not certain) Let me know your thoughts/experiences, thank you.

[@XxstanxX58]

Need to know too

[@pyurologie]

yeah manually shutting off SMT with X3D turbo mode is kind of redundant because turbo mode already does it, but I just do it anyways. It will be dependent on the specific titles. Most games will benefit from SMT disabled. There are some titles where it may not show benefit, but you'll have to see that on a game to game basis. All the titles I play benefit from maxing out each core to full capacity instead of spreading it across multiple cores.

[@Peterthemeter22]

@@pyurologie but dont you technically end up with 8 threads instead of 16, reducing the CPU's capability by half? Many many games use more than 8 threads these days.

Question though, I have trident Z5 Neo 6000 CL30 - 38 - 38 - 96 1.35V Should I copy your provided timings exactly even if that means increasing some of my secondary timings higher than what my kit can do with it's EXPO profile ?

[@pyurologie]

sorry for the late reply, I'd try with your expo timings and try these tertiary timings

Do you have a 7800X3D tuning video? I have one on the way and it'll be paired with an ASUS PRIME B650M-A mobo and id like to optimize it for Tarkov specifically.

here's an undervolt video for Ryzen 7000, same settings I use for my 7800X3D: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3WVmIOkbpqdiZo

[@BlockZapper]

One more thing I would like to add that not many people are actually aware of is turning HPET (High precision event timer) off. While by itself it's only a like 1-2% FPS boost, it makes the game feel quite a bit smoother, even though the actual FPS number is the same, and also seemingly more responsive. It worked wonders for when I wanted to run streets on my old 7700K and actually made it playable, and now on my 7800X3D it still is a noticeable difference.

[@astralpurpose1344]

[@pyurologie]

fine tuning memory is not really necessary and can vary with memory sets, just showing what i did with mine. you can just use your XMP/EXPO profile and be good. tuning secondary and tertiary is like squeezing the last bits out of it, but it won't be substantially different than XMP/EXPO. the PBO settings and turbo mode will make the most difference.

I just got a x870 gigabyte aorus elite board and the 9800x3d and 6000mhz ddr5 cl30 ram, the temps under full load hit 95c in cinebench, im curious if these curve optimizer settings can help reduce the max temps. gaming is fine, i see anywhere from 45-65c in games depending on the title.

[@ipmur]

yes they can because with the negative 40 the voltage is reduced and that reduces the tenperatur.

[@monkeywizzi2025]

I have a PC with ryzen 7 9800x3d and rtx 4090. Should I do something to give it more power ? Looking at your videos on the streets map I don't have so many FPS.

[@lukefloyd9760]

I think I have D-die ram... is there different RAM timings I should use? or just not bother with it and just do eveything else in the video?

will all these settings work for my ryzen 7800x3d. i have that same ram too.

Very new to actually tweaking BIOS settings, is there any risk for the cpu with doing all of these steps?

[@Darkswordz]

Do you know if the Scalar has any negative impact on CPU longevity? I have mine set to 10X, and it seems stable. Does a higher scalar increase power draw, or provide a more consistent voltage to the CPU? I can't really find good information on this. Thanks!

[@pyurologie]

it basically allows the CPU to push harder in terms of voltage, which technically increases heat. Since the 9800X3D runs so cool anyways, I'm personally not very worried about it decreasing overall life of the CPU. It's just allowing it to reach whatever voltage it needs to stay boosted longer. On top of that, boost clocks are capped by PBO, so it's not like it's pushing the CPU indefinitely. In cases where the temp would go to an unhealthy level, then I'd be worried about longevity. But, even on 10X scalar for me, my chip stays extremely cool in the 50s. Hope that explanation helps. If you're extremely cautious, then remove the scalar setting, but overall I'm not worried one bit about longevity using it after seeing the temps and voltages on these settings.

[@Darkswordz]

@@pyurologie Great, thanks! I'll keep an eye on it, and try some other lower settings to see if it changes voltages much. I get about 83C when running Cinebench R24 with 150w power draw. In gaming, it only pulls about 75W and stays around 55-60C with a 360mm AIO.

[@dkindig]

I'm running 10X with a Scythe Fuma 3 air cooler with 3 fans, max temps 87* in Cinebench R23 with 165W draw. Gaming temps are in the low to mid 60's at around the same power draw (75W). Looks like there's a consistent 5* differential between our cooling methods.

[@Darkswordz]

@@dkindig Cinebench R23 this my CPU harder than R24 does. In R24 I get about 83C, but in R24 I get 87C, with a 7X scalar currently. My wattage is lower than yours though, at about 155w in R23. I tried a manual overclock to 5.4Ghz @ 1.240v and temps and power draw were about the same, but it crashed in R23. Interestingly, I can run PBO + 200 offset to reach 5.4Ghz and it passes R23. Maybe I just need more voltage in the manual overclock, but I was already pushing high 87C as it was and didn't feel like trying higher core voltage. Anyways, I'll be happy where it is for now. It's still a huge boost in performance from my old 10900K. :)

it can be dependent on your silicon. Maybe try lowering to 150 and test stability

yes, completely safe to undervolt. there's no way to damage hardware with undervolting because you're actually feeding it less voltage to try and maximize efficiency.

I currently have a Ryzen 7 5800x …is it pointless to switch to a ryzen 7 5700x3d for tarkov?

[@suredude9068]

You would actually benefit from a boost greatly, I switched from a 5800x to a 5800x3d when it was on a big sale, and in labs I can hit like 200 to 300ish frames. On maps like woods I average around 150 to 250 etc. The only map I struggled with was streets but, that is the most demanding map. You can check out his other videos but, this game is geniuenly really cpu/ram dependent. Especially on the vcache. That would be a massive upgrade for you in tarkov and many other vcache heavy games like farcry 6 or Baulders gate 3 too if you are thinking of doing a small upgrade for now.

[@gideonc8077]

@ I watched his 5700x3d vs 5800x3d comparison and will probably upgrade to the 5700x3d simply because I can’t find any 5800x3d’s. And it’s basically the same performance for cheaper …more or less.
