I followed this guide to a tee this afternoon with my own Ryzen 9 7950X3D and DDR5 7200MT/s RAM using my AIO. Literal exact same results as you. Maximum CPU temperature of 82.5C, average core clock of 4,732Mhz, with the non-X3D core spiking to 5.775Ghz and the X3D core hitting 5.350Ghz and I have barely done any core optimizing. I just did -30mv for X3D core and -20mv for non-X3D core as the Per CCD core optimizer. Also all of my fans are set to 50% max speed, lol. Good results. Thanks for you help.

[@user-fg6mq3dg3d]

You are bottlenecking your CPU with that stupid ram speed. The Infinity Fabric is capped at 6000Mhz for 1:1 ratio and you probably have horrendous latency on that ram 38 or higher I would imagine just lower it to 6000 MHZ CL28 or 30 whatever you can achieve it will be better

[@FunWithBits]

Thanks for the video on this. I hope to get this CPU in the coming weeks. I also watched your "AMD Precision Boost Overdrive 2 & Curve Optimizer Explored" on how to find the values for the individual cores. So I will start with the values in this video first and go from there.

[@Kestrelms]

Start with -20mV for each core, PBO on newer bioses with Zen4 chips works only on Asus ROG boards that lift c-state limiter.

I have the Ryzen 9 7950x3d stock with no overclocks and I manually put my rated ram speed which is 5600mhz XMP ram and it boots to safe mode after how do I fix this?

[@Evenaardez]

You're great! Are you able to make a video discussing the fastest way to figure out the correct CO magnitudes when doing the ECLK tuning (So the 3d vcache ccd can boost higher)? Is there a button on the motherboard that quickly takes you back to bios when it fails to boot?

[@Kestrelms]

The fastest way is to check stability in AIDA SHA3, but you still have to find correct value each core.

[@Evenaardez]

@@Kestrelms How do I find the correct value then?

[@dullahangaming5107]

I would also like to know this. With as long as this computer takes to reboot having to calibrate ram (takes over a minute and is not stable to disable), it could take days to stability test each core without something that gives you an idea first.

[@JerseyJohnnysElectronicsGaming]

Yes there is a button that you can set to take you directly to the bios. It's located near the bottom right side of the motherboard if your looking at it mounted normally. (Not the button near the motherboard led error screen). It's directly below that button. You can actually change the button im talking about, in the bios, to do several things . One of them, is to boot directly to the bios. Which is what I've chosen which helped me be able to finally dial in my settings. Now my c0 runs at 3235mhz and c1 runs at 5725mhz.

Thanks for the video! Question: are these curve optimizer offsets the same for every core on every 7950x3D cpu or could it be there is some trial and error involved too?

How did you end up figuring out your curve optimizer per core? I've tried app and it was terrible. I'm using x670e tuf - should I use EXPO II or EXPO I and try secondary, tertiary timings set by mobo/suggested by AHO? The system takes ages to post, so my guess is I will probably try finding per core values, when new bios arrives.

[@Kestrelms]

Use buildzoid secondary timings and try tightening main by yourself below what expo suggests for example 30-36-36-36(well if you have hynix mdie/adie)

Thanks for the tests, I punched in your numbers out of curiosity, Cinebench and Aida64 is stable with all tests. I'm on a Gigabyte Aorus Master x670e I got a custom watercooling loop (2x480 + 2x240 radiators) CPU cooler is the older Cuplex Kryos Cinebench single score is 1850 Cinebench multi score is 36466 Singlecore in cinebench: 5.878ghz Multicore in cinebench: Core 0 to 7 maxed out at 5.215ghz Core 8 to 15 maxed out at 5.863ghz It's faster now than stock but should I crank up to 200mhz instead of leaving 150mhz + on in bios? Temperature max goes to 79°C

[@SkatterBencher]

You can try! I stuck with +150 MHz because that was the limit of my CPU.

[@SkatterBencher]

I already made a video with the 7900X on this motherboard kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZCkfquMmLhleq8. The process for 7950X will be very similar.

[@Beatssample]

Sorry i have to ask because i find NOTHING of any good answer for that. WHAT is the actual Maximum Voltage for the 7950x3d? Because i cant get mine under 1v and spike up to 1.37v in some workloads. Im afraid to damage my chip. TIA Ps: i mean the vcache ccd by the way. As i hear 1.2 volts are normal and 1.4 for the non cached. But my Board/Chips pushes an all core 1.375 v max!

[@metalmeltdown31]

I copied your settings and the system is unstable with random shutdown resets. What should I start scaling back first to test and see if stability is improved, while still pushing an overclock?

[@SkatterBencher]

I would suggest checking out the longer SkatterBencher guide to get a better understanding of why I'm using the settings that I'm using (rather than just copy). Then you can find ways to maybe try lower frequencies first and see if that's stable kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3Paf6dshalgZpI

[@davenguyen6351]

How did you arrive at these negative values per core? I copied your values and it works but seems like core 4 and 5 spikes to 95c but I never see it ever stay there. Is it okay for it to spikes to those temps?

[@SkatterBencher]

I went through a manual testing process to find those values. I (briefly) detail my process in the full length SkatterBencher guide: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3Paf6dshalgZpI. 95C is a common temperature for Ryzen CPUs and it's fine to spike to those temperatures. AMD's warrants such high temperatures via their TjMax specification.

Define "keep at 5.75ghz" ... on these CPUs, 5700+ can only be reached when one core is running a light load (as I show in my longer guide here kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3Paf6dshalgZpI).

Your negative settings for PBO are unique to your CPU. Is there anyway for me to find specific negative offsets for my 7950x 3D, assuming mine will be unique and differ from yours?

[@SkatterBencher]

Some people have suggested using the Ryzen Master auto tune tool for a base line. I always do it manually, starting at Curve Optimizer = 0, then reducing all cores by 5 (so -5 CO) and run a heavy workload like Prime95 for a couple of minutes. If no cores are unstable, next step is -10, rinse and repeat.

[@zoeydee7168]

@@SkatterBencher 10-4. Sounds very iterative as some of your values are 0 and others range to -35 or more. Seems like the number of perturbations is quite high, ie, a lot of time figuring out which core is unstable at what nagatve setting after a crash?

[@SkatterBencher]

I can become very convoluted indeed. But with experience you can apply some shortcuts that work most of the time. Essentially, you have to catch two major sources of instability: 1) frequency under high load and high temperature, and 2) frequency under light load an low temperature. 1) you can tune with Prime95 all core and all core curve optimizer as long as you're not being throttled due to CPU temperature. If that's the case, you can always test in batches of 8, 4, or 2 cores. 2) you can tune for with per-core superpi. For most CPUs this process will get you to a tuned chip relatively quickly. However, some chips are fickle and require more extensive testing

Why are ppl telling, that the 7950X3D isn't able to run DDR5 6.400?! - That's not the truth thou. However I'm interested on the different offsets - how do you find them? I tried to max them out, by simply running benchmarks and testing systemstability by some different applications. Try-and-Error let's say. But ... in sight of DDR5 with a speed of 6400MHz, the maximum offsets are way lower than running the RAM at 6000MHz and I guess, that's because you need higher voltage on the cores, to support this higher clock-speed.

[@SkatterBencher]

People are saying Ryzen 7000 can't run 6400 because a lot of CPUs are unable to run stably at that frequency. Personally, I think I've only seen 1 CPU out of all the Ryzen 7000s I've tested that could run 6400 stably.

@@pixelhouse18 PBO won't you do a thing, both power draw and multiplier are hard limited on 3DCache chiplets. Only option to overclock is to use gigabyte masters boards, taichi boards or X670E-F or higher that has asynchronus bclk mode that can do more than 102+ only on core chiplets to use it you need to find new curve optimizers setting for each core with plenty having positive value to make it stable. PBO is not BCLK OC those are two different things

5 minute video for 7800X3D is scheduled for May 10. Still have a backlog of other videos to publish :)

@@SkatterBencher that’s perfectly fine, thanks alot man!

[@FunWithBits]

It looks like "ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E" has the Hero($660) and the Extreme($999). I wanted to pair this with a 7950x3d. Could anyone tell me if the Hero will give me the same per-core curve-optimizer settings?

[@Kestrelms]

It will give the same optimizing and overlocking capabilities, just like Strix X670E-F.

[@WoodyTheArmadillo]

EXPO2 should be used instead of EXPO1 - EXPO1 only loads profile base timings while EXPO2 loads complete profile timings. If EXPO2 works it's better than EXPO1

Tried this settings didnt work lol

, I honestly hate this processor. I know every new adopter is going to experience growing pains but my cpu just stays constantly running all 32threads at 4.9ghz sometimes barely even hitting 5ghz. I did a negative 20 offset but to every core. For example in cinebench single thread most people score around 2200 where as I got 1800. In 3d mark my system runs all 32threads and others with my exact setup i compare my scores to and it shows they were using same drivers etc exactly the same . Except their highest speed was 5.7ghz and mine was 5.02ghz, then it showed logical/physical cores and mine was 1/32 and there is 1/16. Meaning their cpu is switching to the higher clock speed cores while mine is using the slower but more cores. I cant figure out why I cant get my system to go past 5.02ghz and use the higher speed cores? I dont know great video as always I'm just frustrated and sick of this cpu. What makes it even worse is my system runs atleast 10 degrees cooler then other systems . During all benchmarking the cpu temperatures never passed around 55 degrees. Where most people running a aio cooler are getting around 65 degrees and higher. That just makes me more frustrated knowing I have all that head room .

[@StillUp2Date]

have you already figured it out how to set the cores above 5.0 GHZ?

[@JerseyJohnnysElectronicsGaming]

@StillUp2Date , having only worked with intels for over 20 years, my frustrations were more with upgrading to a new generation of motherboard, pcie5, on top of learning all of the amd jargon to know what does what etc. Once I stopped being angry, and remembered every intel chip I upgraded early to (pentium lol) and the growing pains , this was actually way easier once I learned how to undervolt amd cpus etc. Now it's running insane. Lol 😆 atleast I'm being honest. We have all been there whenever we decided to upgrade early, new ram generation, new motherboard, new cpu lol its part of the fun.

[@JHEntertainment98]

I originally had a 7950x but it died so I got this one. Had no idea it had a locked multiplier, which makes this chip a pain to overclocok

I really think is a shame that X3D cant be overclocked :( only the cores without.

[@MustafaGT]

Looks like this does absolutely nothing for gaming?

[@ripleyhrgiger4669]

All I've done is enabled EXPO 1 on my ASUS X670E - E using GSkill DDR5 6000mhz and my 7950x3d boost to 6500mhz. I'm not seeing anyone else experiencing this...

[@DeltaRandomGuy]

lol i hope i get the same results, the only thing difference from yours specs is the asus X670E Gene, and gaming? Did change a lot? I wonder if i buy a 7950x and overclock if wold be better then the x3d

[@Dozeball]

I'm sorry, I can not believe that, because OOB without tweaking, the 7950x3d will not operate at any frequency above 5.2GHz on the frequency cores and 4.8GHz on the X3D cores. To get 6.5GHz you need to have an AMD selected platinum binned GPU, on a test bench, using a custom pot and LN2 to cool it, and even then, there's no guarantee of even reaching 6GHz. From some random KZbin commenter? Not likely.

[@GoldenEagle0007]

AMD really needs to send you a 4090 to actually see the difference in games and a 4k camera too 😂

[@NoClipMode]

Is their a benefit to enabling EXPO I instead of EXPO II? Does the motherboard do a better job with tuning the remaining timings?

[@SkatterBencher]

Sometimes the motherboard auto-rules do a better job with stability with certain ICs, but it's very much a matter of testing on your system
