You can play with the tightness of the screws and see if it makes a difference. But usually the manufacturer makes it simple and you just go until they stop.

Thank you I wish it is not a DOA CPU. I just remembered only thing might be my fault is i didnt turn the offset screws too tight and fan screws too.. Does it cause that much difference ?
Click to expand...
the offset just by hand, not super tight, but firmly.
the other thing is the pump head, until the screw stops. not more not less...
if that is not tightened all the way, it maybe could be the reason ( depends also on the thermalpaste, amount and type )

this is the reasson i asked this:

how does the thermal paste imprint look like?

btw, just now building a system for a friend and had a mainboard infront of me where every, absolutely every bolt was loose, and i mean every...
the retention mechanism i could unscrew with a bit and two finger....

It must be a joke. Customer Support says;
Have you checked the airflow inside the case? Have you completed routine case filter and fan cleaning? The values you specified can be considered normal for the processor you specified, considering seasonal conditions. ***! WwWTF!

Have you considered moving from Earth to Neptune?

at least, with the more distance to the sun, this would result in better temperatures...
maybe you have to fight coldbug then... :unsure:

Binned 12x 9950x3d
11x sp120
1x Sp119

Only one can Boot 8800 and do 8400/2100 stable.
8500 is stable aswell but Not in sync.

Some couldnt even Boot 8200, some couldnt even stablize 8000.

Zero can do fclk 2233.

Now i know why sugi needed to bin 76 cpu's 😂😂😂

Gonna keep that one and Run 8400/2100 c32.
Under 60ns With 9950x3d in aida seems nice?

Binning a 9950X3D that can do all of these was difficult:
– Passing Cinebench R23 with manual OC (CCD0 at 5.6 GHz / CCD1 at 5.7 GHz) at 1.20V-
– Stable FCLK at 2233
– Stable IMC at 8600+

Anyway, my current CPU was binned by friends, since I’ve always had bad luck with binning 😅

I'm considering whether to buy such a specially selected 9950X3D – with manual overclocking all CCDs at 5.7GHz at 1.2v, FCLK at 2200, and memory at 8400+ (My mobo is the Godlike X870E; achieving 8600+ is likely limited by the motherboard rather than the IMC). In my region, such a CPU is priced at around 1500 US dollars.

I'm not sure if this makes sense. It feels like using a cheat code in a game, as if I've lost sight of the original purpose of overclocking. Am I just doing this for higher performance scores, or for the joy of pushing my own hardware to its maximum performance

sync is kindof useless in my tests on 1:2, 2200 fclk is more viable then the 100mhz loss and that small latency boost you get. Trust me the only viable sync you want is 6600:2200 or 8800:2200. 8400:2100 is defo not worth if your cpu does 2200 fully stable

I highly suggest you to run as high fclk as possible and highest.

are you running legacy or level 2? Level 2 has higher latency on some test, but better overall performance in gaming

with a godlike 4 dimmer your not gonna run 8400 for sure. Static overclock is not worth for gaming, pbo/eclk/co is better for sure, you can squeeze far more out of it dynamically.

also i highly suggest people to wait for zen6, imo the zen5 has been a bit of a disapointment, even running 8600 1:2 and so on, is not much better then running a simple 6600:2200cl26, differences are small. More viable to get decent cores and call it a day. For example I got a 9800x3d that has nice cores and 6600:2200 stable, it pretty much beaten all my 9950x3d's in gaming..or was on par. And i binned quite some.

If you're chasing numbers, it may be worth it. Personally, my main reason for overclocking is to get the best possible daily gaming experience. So frankly, I don't need this kind of highly binned chip — but at least it gives me peace of mind that my gaming performance is solid 😅

ParaGts said:
Agreed. But sellers of specially selected CPUs only provide static overclocking data. At least this data could show me the min voltage required for the worst core to run at 5.7GHz.
Click to expand...
yes but the problem of the vf curve, if a core does certain mhz at 1.18v or 1.2v it doesn't say anything what it will do at per say 1.34v or 1.4v. Ideally you want a scale at lowest voltage. Had cpus that did great on 1.2v but didn't scale high and were walled.

also differences are pretty small if you ask me, like if your cpu does 5450mhz or 5500mhz on cache ccd on 1.2v, is so small diff for gaming, you wont care. And ccd1 you won't use for gaming at all, you will want it parked, so whatever it does there, won't matter. You can get some small profit if it does a nice eclk overclock and holds those effectives, but again with todays games, gpu heavy and cpu usage at ~10% no point wasting your money if your not competetive bencher. Even less differences with the memory in todays gaming. In my findings games like higher uclk rather then 1:2. Some rare titles do profit from 1:2. Not trying to put you off or anything, just giving you some persopective, it depends what you are after like sugi said.

Legacy only for aida Screenshots, Rest Level 2.

I try 8500/2200 Later, thanks for the Suggestion With fclk.

The only game I play now is Hearthstone Battlegrounds . I've successfully pushed it to over 2000 fps~

A2/B2
View attachment 2721525

Would be better to be able to buy, not look at 😅
Click to expand...
Was hoping it was a nothingburger, guess not. Most likely there will be a workaround? Not really understanding the significance of a2 b2 over a1 b1 with a 2 dimmer...

With two IMCs, defaulting to a2/b2 with only 2 sticks, surely can just reidentify the ID in the bios??
