Is putting a 2200g battery with 1.4v and 3850mhz in a normal box okay?
Is putting a 2200g battery with 1.4v and 3850mhz in a normal box okay?
I am using an Asus Tuf Gaming B450-Plus motherboard because I had problems with CPU-heavy games. So, my Asus Optimal setup uses 1.4 v and runs at 3850 mhz. Is this safe? My idle temps are only 30-40 degrees when the game is running, but my prime95 scores drop to 50-60. Sometimes the computer crashes in prime95 or weighted games, even though the temps look good. I don't know what's wrong because it happens very rarely.
Hey, actually, you might not be using the right tool to check how well your CPU works with Prime95. You should probably run smaller FFTs instead. This helps show the hottest temperature you get at a specific voltage. Usually, pushing the CPU hard makes it hit around 80 degrees Celsius or even higher when you use voltages like 1.4 volts. That suggests you're running a different type of Prime test than what I described before. That's why your system crashes when you run heavy loads. Your overclock might not be stable enough for that. AMD says running at 1.4 volts is okay over time, but in my opinion, your voltage should actually be lower than what your VID tells you. For example, my 1600X has a VID of 1.375 volts. I set my voltage to 1.3 volts and it stays stable for three hours on Prime95's small FFTs during testing (that is how I check things myself).
Hey, it looks like you aren't using the right test for Prime95. You should be running little FFTs instead. This gives you the max temp at a specific voltage. Usually when you stress a CPU, you're hitting 80 degrees Celsius or even higher with 1.4 volts. That tells me you might be doing a different type of test. That's why it crashes under load. Your overclock is probably unstable. AMD says running at 1.4 volts is fine for long-term OCs. But on my opinion, your vcore should actually be lower than your VID (Voltage ID). For example, my 1600X has a VID of 1.375. I set my vcore to 1.3v. It stays stable at 3.9 on Prime95 small FFTs for 8 hours (that's how I test myself).
I made a mistake. I ran Prime 95 with 4 threads for 30 minutes. Here is the link to my work: https://imgur.com/a/HFvtf8q Check this out on the other link: https://imgur.com/a/HFvtf8q
I turned up the clock speed just because I couldn't afford a new CPU. I'm using an Asus Optima 300 series chip so I know how it works since I'm not an expert at overclocking. If the voltage stays safe, that's a good thing for me. I don't want my computer parts to break down later on.
Temps seem okay, roughly where they should be. You should run Prime for at least an hour. For the first hour, there is a bit of voltage 'creep'. It slowly ticks up, but after an hour you should have your max temp. Here's a guide to OC your CPU: https://forums. The auto Asus feature is not the best way. If you read this guide, you will be able to manually OC your system, and get better results.
