No matter what I do I can't get completely stable at anything above 4.1ghz on all cores. puts me at a 2700 passmark score.
Any tips for navigating the crappy asus bios?
currently on stock voltages at 4.1ghz 1.133 volts I can actually play cs:go and render with out blue screening.
Anything else I get an instant blue screen while playing cs:go with out introducing huge volts or my maya renders overheat and crash...
Temps are all fine and I can pass prime 95 heavy burn in test with a 74 degree max on 2.2... just no cs:go I don't get it.
I can play pubg all day at like 4.7 (x6) and 4.4 (x6) with like 1.2xxx volts but the seccond I play cs:go instant blue screen or my renders will just die eventually.
maybe I should just stick with 4.1 and try to be happy
...
sadly I was looking for at least 4.4 across all cores but doesn't seem like that will be possible.
I think that would be too much heat for my AIO during renders...
is that an asus prime-a motherboard or delux?
I have my power delivery set on extreme/mode 1 ----140%
I think the problem might be at 4.3 ghz + I'm dipping into the 145% + overclock
are you able to run cs:go for over 5 minutes with obs running in the background stuff like that.
I'm sure I could boot and mess arround on those settings but I don't think I'd be "fully" stable.
I want to stay below 80 even upper 75 if possiable and even at 4.2 with high voltages it seems
Like I can more or less get pretty stable at those speeds with some access heat the problem is I do maya 3d rendering... maybe I should make 2 profiles or something instead... it's just tricky though because around 4.6-4.7 is where supposedly you start to get vrm throttling
The 7900x is a very different beast than the 7920x completely different die.
Hi,
Too much heat ?
The flaw in the x series chips is turbo over zaps the system
Using manual and limiting to 1.240v calms the system down otherwise it hits well over.
I'd also tone down your ram to 3200
I'm on a x299 tuf mark 2 as my system spec's shows 2 systems
Which you should also use the system builder and add all your info/ images to it.
Some chips just don't pick up their skirts much.
That being said have you tried for 4.0 or 3.9 stable?
Run your RAM in auto after you set multiplier.
Turn off any power saving features in BIOS/AHCI.
I had 4.1 pretty stable yesterday now today it crashed instantly.... seems like any clock change I do crashes... pretty lame... I could probably underclock this thing and it would crash...
****ty asus bios probably should have gone for a better company mobo.
Hi,
Possibly you should take it back to where you bought it
Swap for a z370 and i7-8700k
ASUS has nice bios
These x series chips have known thermal issues
But guess what so does the 8700k
The fact I can't get anything stable is concerning... should I try a gpu voltage rail for the off cpu pin? who the hell wants to run on stock settings on a $1400 cpu.....
Hi,
Could be a defect it happens all the time
Could more likely be the board
But you got probably the highest ram you could muster too
The chip it's self only really supports 2666
Board supports a lot of different speeds but if the chip can't handle it welcome to bsod.....
Like I said the thermal/ heating issues are well know it is cause or reason enough to return the chip/.... for a refund or store credit for another platform entirely.
Heck I almost did myself
yeah... maybe it's the nvidia drivers lets give it a try before I rip this 3 month old computer appart and start dealing with manufacturer warranty... I assume there is no money back anymore...
maya crashing at stock settings is a big issue...
didn't think anything of it when my mouse started to not register at boot up or the asus lighting utility crashing and using one of my entire cores up. but crashing at stock settings = no good.
So at stock settings (reset to factory defaults) you can't hit the advertised turbo speeds (4.3/4.4ghz)?
Maybe someone owned the chip before you and put it through its paces. Otherwise if stock settings gives you the advertised performance sounds like you just have some settings wrong.
OK! so i figured out the cs:go problem... I think...
CS:go can only use 16 unique threads so with turbo boost 3.0 enable it was cycleing through more than 16 unique threads automatically... I disabled it.
I now have the asus auto tune enabled it gave me a 51% overclock from there I tested for 20 minutes in cs:go with launch commands "-threads 16" and turbo boost off.... seemed stable no crashing to desktop no blue screen.... "yet"
from there I now have all cores at 43x10 except 44x2 at around 1.199 volts - 1.299 volts. soooo I ran
Ram defaulted to 3200 for overclock
from there I was still crashing in maya under a 3 minute heavy render so I adjusted the cpu fan speed aggressiveness to keep temps down I managed to get through one with a 79 degree temp max and less rev up and rev down more ballanced....
so cs:go was a non issue... I think... hasn't blue screened yet sooo
will keep messing arround with maya and cpu aio fan curve.
hopefully it holds up... most people probably wouldn't have this issue but do some intense rendering sometimes...
at this point I'm not going to custom water cool to get 100-200 more mhz on the cpu
That being said I still have a unique issue where I can't assign cpu affinity with out using a 3rd party program like cpu lasso...
It would be nice if I could so I could stream OBS while doing maya work with out huge chopping...
If anyone has any sugestions on how to keep maya rendering from using all cpus that would be nice as traditional affinity configuration doesnt work... and cpu lasso has some issues with selecting windows with priority/admin kinda buggy so I don't want to use it.
Hi,
Might be best to return you're obviously having too many issues :/
I took back a Corsair H115i cpu cooler because it just did not cool the 7900x to use the turbo's 4500.00 which is all core x45 fairly basic oc I thought
Which you can also change your thermal paste
See if you can pick up some thermal grizzly or some Noctua NT-H1 if the return process doesn't work out.
You can "at last resort" disconnect the 4 pin cpu power cable the manual says it will work on just the 8 pin connector
Might limit the power spikes causing the high temperatures
As far as your program is concerned you'll have to review it's settings to see if it's similar to photo shop's and lower the cores it uses
Also all core is not the only setting
The is also by core usage/ specific core/ and auto in addition to all core.
Have you tried to uncheck multicore enhancement that too will cut down of temperatures a little.
so I sent my asus rog 1080 ti oc back because it was crashing my maya and causing weird screen bugs, so I have my 1060 back in my computer but I'm still getting blue screens in cs:go. maya now works flawlessly.
I uploaded my log files to microsoft and intel to see if they can see what is causing the blue screen can't be my cpu as it's passing everything with flying colours.
