9800x3d how to UV?
9800x3d how to UV?
1. How can I UV this chip? I’ve found PBO Curve Optimizer works well, but is that the only option or are there better alternatives? I currently have a -20 setting in PBO curve and completed a 30-minute Cinebench stress test.
2. Are there additional stress tests you’d suggest beyond Cinebench? Or should I stick with what I have? Also, I noticed a sudden drop from -15 to -20—about 10 degrees, which surprised me. I was expecting a smaller change since it went from 0 to -15 at around -5°C. It’s strange, especially since you mentioned this is very basic and I’m new to AMD CPUs. P.S. My motherboard is the Gigabyte X870E Aorus Pro Ice 1.1. Does this affect results?

A 30-minute Cinebench run is enough; just use the system normally. If you hit any problems, lower CO to -15 again. I tried -25 on both my 7700x and my current 9800X3D.

02-24-2023, 12:48 PM #3I personally use -30 CO on my AMD chips but not sure any real difference between -20, -25, -30. As above, you can do a +200 PBO as well. Just confirming that isn't much more to it, outside of setting artificial temp limits if you choose.
, planning to play some games now with Space Marine 2 to check performance before trying -30. At first 94°C was a worry, but UV handled it well—80 is much better. Thanks for the help; I won’t need an AIO anymore, saved about $100. The thermals are good with the AK620 Digital at 70% fan speed (1400RPM). Let me know if anyone wants to see more details.

Yes, that's correct. You might succeed by setting lower values than -20; -30 or even lower could work. It's wise to verify stability over an extended period and consider scheduling a full 1+ hour Cinebench run soon. Alternatively, running a longer OCCT CPU test may provide better insights.

That's the one i got ddr5 before the price hikes and got 9800x3d on sale recently, board came from outlet too saved 50$ on that, overall upgrade will cost me like 250$ after selling my current components, which i deem as worthwile investment since the platform will be relevant for zen6 and hopefully 7 too
