7700k Overclocking HELP
I looked at the CPU ID and noticed my memory was set to single-channel mode. I removed both 8GB RAM modules and put them back, which now shows dual-channel memory. Could this be causing the low FPS? It should be adjustable in the advanced settings, under tuning, by finding DRAM frequency, switching manual, or checking your stick ratings. Could you tell me what RAM sticks you have? There should be a label on each one with the model number and voltage setting. I can help identify compatibility and timing details if you share them. (Remember, the numbers after the dashes aren’t exact, just an estimate.)
After examining your mobo, you indeed have a 4-pin water pump that needs to be connected to ensure it operates at maximum speed continuously, and the fan mounted on the radiator should be connected to your CPU_Fan slot so it can adapt its cooling based on your CPU's temperature. It seems your H60 is likely a 3-pin device, which means it should bypass any PWM adjustments and always run at full capacity as long as it has a +12v connection. I mentioned earlier to place it in the CPU header and switch it to the water pump header if you haven't done so already.
I don’t understand the technical details right now. It seems like your H60 might only need a 3-pin connection, which would make PWM settings irrelevant and keep it running at full speed as long as it’s connected to +12v. I mentioned earlier to place it in the CPU header and switch it to the water pump header if needed. But I didn’t really grasp what all that meant, so I guess I’m still confused. Sorry about that.
The cooler isn't performing well since both the GPU and CPU aren't overclocked, and the CPU consistently stays at or above 80°C during games, which isn't ideal.
