I was talking about CPU core voltage lol.
My SOC vcore is sitting at the default 1.1 or so. (Mobo says 1.05 so that’s somewhere in the 1.1-1.15 range).

its gonna take a really good chip, motherboard and praying to the right gods to achieve that XD

Switched it off of normal to +0 CPU core offset and +0 Gfx core offset and now the volts are only at 1.38-1.4 for the CPU core and the SOC didn’t change. Ok then? Now to see if that actually helped and if its stable enough to run cinebench now lol. Because it was temperature crashing before.

stupid ass default settings.
now that it only hits 1.42 volts under load the CPU maxed at 72 C and settled around 70C under full load. GPU is still fine as far as i can tell.

still stayed at 3.9 ghz as well.
may try to undervolt a bit more on the CPU but will see.

yeah even professional overclocks would struggle with that, you’d have to pray to the lords of silicone for a chip worthy enough of such an achievement.

yep.

is a fair few people
NOTE: Cpu does not need to be 100% stable so thats good XD

wow 131 people have achieved it, was more than I was expecting. With the right hardware this could be totally doable.

is mostly from AMD chips XD

yeah totally not surprised that they’d be using FX chips for that, those clock high anyway XD

FX chips are easy to oc I can get mine to 5GHz with no effort

yep would be fun to have an FX chip to play around with. it took blood sweat and tears to get my 4690k to even hit 4.7GHz.

Should have got one right after Ryzen came out you could have got a 8370 and good mobo for $150-170 or what ever that is in pounds.

not bad at all, I kinda got Ryzen when it came out though which actually is almost exactly a year ago now.

I got my fx-8320e and a asrock killer 990fx board for $130 in spring 2016. I’m looking forward to getting Ryzen/2 this summer for my next upgrade

nice thats not bad for $130, Ryzen2 should be quite a nice bump over that 8320e when you upgrade.

My VMs will be happy with the extra cores

True that, Ryzen is an epic machine for virtualization, whole reason I got my 1700 was to run all the VMs plus vfio is amazing on it once you get it working and brings so many possibilities to your virtual machines.

This 2400g is starting to annoy me. After reducing the volts to reasonable amounts for Ryzen … Its no longer stable. This thing is annoying. I’m going to leave it for now. The fact that I can’t easily control the GPU volts without frying the CPU as a side effect of increasing them is incredibly annoying because the GPU can easily sustain 25-40% overclocks if it werent for being strapped to the CPU

I sat down on my couch and this happened

I mostly use my VMs for installing software I just need for class so it’s not on my main install or fucking around in Linux. But I think I might also try pass-through on either it or my fx system at some point
