I've improved performance significantly after applying the tips shared by others. Before: https://valid.x86.fr/sgeywb Updated: https://valid.x86.fr/iwgszz Now it runs much faster and is more stable. I made several changes: tightened BIOS timings, increased voltage to 1.35W, raised CPU frequency from 2666MHz to 3000MHz, adjusted voltage from 1.395V to 1.44V. Extensive bench testing confirmed the results. Feel free to review my current specs for reference. Let me know if you need further tweaks.
That's a really nice sample. At 1.42 volts it's stable, but I'm not sure about 4.25. Let's check the limits.
Many 1600 and 1600X CPUs perform better at significantly lower frequencies, suggesting your higher clock speed may stem from insufficient memory. This observation is also visible in the CPUz screenshot you shared. Running slower timings or clocks on your memory can allow you to push higher frequencies for your cores. Ultimately, faster CPU speeds are irrelevant if the processor can't maintain adequate processing cycles. Whether a CPU runs at 4.2 GHz or 3.9 GHz delivering the same performance is essentially the same.
Increased memory speed to 3000mhz resulted in a slightly improved CB score. However, the actual impact wasn't noticeable, especially for single-core performance, which saw a significant boost.
You can execute single-core tests via the menu and benchmarks section. I'm curious about your performance at 4.2+ GHz.
