I understand the SP rating on Asus boards indicates CPU quality. With multiple Ryzen 7 7700 chips, determining the best one depends on your needs.
Right hand side under "Hardware Monitor" --> "Prediction" is the SP rating Its an ASUS exclusive feature tho, they do thier own math to calculate it
7700 should all be rather low tier silicon, not sure there's much difference between them Anyway, only way to know is to manually test max clock you can get stable in Ryzen Master, calculated ratings aren't worth much
The only real way to assess silicon quality is by trying to push the chip beyond its limits or lowering its voltage and observing the results. SP ratings and ASIC quality scores offer some clues, but they don’t provide a complete picture, and there’s no certainty involved.
It's the traditional, physical method that works best. You need to execute it.
