Ppl hate gigabyte mbs so u are a bit alone.
Im looking for information to do same, did u see asus mb guide from roberto? U can tune your cpu by using llc. The problem is gigabyte bios xD

 

Hi guys,

I hope you are doing great!
Please help me with settings for lower temperatures with my 13600K.
It's in a Gigabyte Z790 Gaming X AX mb with 2x32GB Kingston 5200 cl40 DDR5.
I like silence so it's in a Fractal Design Define XL house and the CPU cooler is a BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4.
There are 3 case vent in the case (2 front, 1 rear - BeQuiet Silent Wing 3 on the lowest settings).
It is silent of course but even after proper delid and with Thermaltake cpu frame the cpu temp is 87C at cpu stress test.

I got some help from somebody but he use an ASUS ROG mb, so I can't find these options (probably the naming is different).
He said:
set "Actual VRM Core voltage" to Manual
and in "CPU Core Voltage Override" start to lower voltage in -0.01V decrements (and stop at the last stable after stress tests)
set "Load Line Calibration" to Level 4

All in all, I want to lower voltage (and everything else what I need to change additionally) to the last stable position to keep the stock clock rate
but on lower temperatures.

Can anybody help me?

You Can try "Turbo Power Limits" -> "Intel POR", this is Intel default. GIGABYTE default is all unlimited.

The high temperature is suitable because there is no Power limit, but other MB have set power limit, so the performance will be relatively poor.

Thanks a lot! 👍

Does it means that all Gigabyte mb has some disadvantage and I can't reach proper undervolted, powerlimited scenario with this 13600K?

 

So if I set Intel POR I can stay on stock frequency but with limited power... lower temperatures, right?

 

Yes.
But clip frequency, Power over Intel POR power limit


INTEL POR for 13600K
PL1 = PL2 =181 W
PL1Time = 56s

INTEL POR Enhance for all CPU
PL1 = 253W
PL1Time = 96s
PL2 = unlimited

FYI

Great, thanks a lot and Merry Christmas! 🎄

 

I hope it is useful to you.
Merry Christmas!

Wanted to say thanks this worked for me as well. From 85 to 45°c on battlefield 2042 max settings

 

Yes. But clip frequency, Power over Intel POR power limit INTEL POR for 13600K PL1 = PL2 =181 W PL1Time = 56s INTEL POR Enhance for all CPU PL1 = 253W PL1Time = 96s PL2 = unlimited FYI

Wasn't working for me, I put this to intel POR, but I had the same 102° within the first 2 minutes of cinebench execution, so I left it to its default value because it means that the problem is elsewhere. I also tried to enable frequency clipping (Frequency TVB) to Sync, but without significative advantages (102° to 98°). A bad thermal paste (anyway I used a thermal paste for overclocking) or not so correct apply don't justify a so high temperature. Really begin to think in: 1) processor problem 2) motherboard problem (or maybe a faulty temp sensor) The liquid cooler seems to be working correctly because the RPM values are ok (5500+ RPM the pump and 1550+ RPM for the 2 fans of the radiator) and from the radiator in th eupper part of the case is outcoming a hot air flow, sign that the warm is correctly transported from the processor to the radiator.

 

Gigabyte BIOS how to change or set CPU power draw limit. I am using a 13700K with a Gigabyte z790 gaming X AX motherboard. I am familiar with the BIOS entry advanced settings where you can change the Voltage; those are self-explanatory in most instances when needing to (under volt most likely).

Can someone please explain in baby steps HOW i can set a POWER draw limit in the Gigabyte (z790 gaming x - in my case) motherboard BIOS? The power rating on my 13700k is 125w but the motherboard let's it draw up to 170-175W when I run the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool. I simply don't want this.

I want to set it to 125W max. I know it can be set in the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and the Gigabyte Control Centre but they never seem to last or be remembered at the next boot up. Am i wrong here?

It's fairly easy to see all the Voltage settings you can change in advanced menu in the BIOS but NO CLEAR option to set a power/wattage draw maximum for the CPU. Under what menu/feature or settings can this be adjusted? Please if anyone can be kind enough to give some permanent solution thanks.

Hello,

Please follow this step:

1. Save your current settings into a profile so you can return to them later if you want.
2. Reset your BIOS to default settings.
3. Disable multicore enhancement
4. Enable XMP(if your RAM supports it).
5. Go to advance CPU settings
6. Go to Turbo power limits -> enable it
7. Set Package Power Limit 1 = 253 <- change it to 125
8. Set Package Power Limit 2 = 253
9. Set Core Current Limit = 307Amps
10. If you want to undervolt, disable under protection

 

thanks for the info on this thread. I also ran into this problem with this motherboard and a i9-12900 and using a high end water cooler. I would run higher end games and the CPU would overheat and throttle. and the Mobo or front panel speaker would produce this ear splitting tone warning me. I tested with prime 95 and after a few minutes it would hit 100C and throttle and warn me. It is way too high. base power is 65w, but this setting goes way higher than that at steady state. back to intel POR and all 16 cores are hovering at 40s C in prime95.

This is where the dude is doing it more normally, but I would also disable SEP
