Zebarjadi.raouf: Hey, that was a good one. Wait, what's going on? Likely the CPU is adjusting its clocks to suit whatever it needs. AVX these days is mainly for pro and overclocking. The only games I'm aware of that use it are console emulators. What FPS are you seeing? I'm running 150+? Just because it's clocked at 4.5GHz (or 4.3GHz) doesn't mean it's hitting the CPU's full speed. My GPU is an EVGA GTX 1060 SC, and usually I get about 120-144 FPS. In busy situations I'm around 100 FPS. I looked into the CPU usage in the game and it stayed under 90%. It hovered between about 50% to 80%. Check this out for a reference from someone else facing the same problem:

When upgrading next time, make sure to maximize your GPU performance. It might be limiting the CPU's speed during games.
If you're not reaching 100%, don't stress too much about minor drops.
Perhaps the developers have finally released an updated version. That would be great to know.
If AVX causes obsessive behavior, you can turn off the offset, raise the voltage slightly, and try playing for a few days to get stable results instead of OCCT.
Alternatively, you might want to opt for a delidded unit with liquid metal. This allows for higher operating currents at lower voltages.

Zebarjadi.raouf shares his thoughts on upcoming upgrades and performance tips. He suggests maximizing GPU power during the next upgrade, as it might be limiting CPU performance in games. If you're not achieving full performance, he advises patience and mentions possible code updates from developers. He also discusses adjusting offset settings, increasing voltage slightly, and considering liquid metal or delidded options for better stability. He notes that some games run well without offset and shares his current progress with OCCT testing, which has passed initial data sets but is still facing challenges with larger ones.

*UPDATE*
Ok, so i did the Realbench for an hour and got no errors. I am now going to do IBT with 20 passes and do an AIDA 64 test for 1hr aswell. It seems as though that the only software failing is OCCT ??

It seems OCCT is being particular. They handle tough math challenges and will throw an error if the result doesn’t match what’s stored.
If you’re satisfied with your setup, just leave it alone. I’m obsessed with tests being flawless, so I always crank up the voltage to keep everything steady.

Zebarjadi.raouf thinks OCCT is being strict. They believe OCCT handles tough math and throws an error if the result doesn't match what's stored. They suggest sticking with your current setup since you're content, and question the need for AVX if you're just playing games.
