good infos guys.
now i am not to concerned anymore that something is wrong with my brothers mainboard (my main concern).
again, the thing that puzzled us was that before we needed 1.3x volt (as shown by CPU-Z, hwinfo) to get the 1700 stable at around 3775 mhz.
now with the same voltage offset...
you dont see idle.jpg and load. jpg attachement?
i guess then something must be wrong with the forum software.
because i see them.
thx that´s some useful info.
as i said we are both no overclocking experts. the values are at default with the old BIOS and the new one.
so "checking" them would be difficult.
the only thing my brother and me usually touch when overclocking is the multiplier, offset and when needed LLC.
when i assume that the voltage...
more or less the same voltage. see screenshots.
yes of course that could be possible but still isn´t the voltage to low for ryzen 1700?
i have two ryzen systems and have seen a lot of systems from friends. none had such low voltgages.
but why the different numbers with the exact same BIOS settings?
i am no overclocking expert.
i normaly just set the multiplier and push the voltage offset until the system is prime stable.
but i never noticed such a difference in voltages when doing a BIOS update.
that´s why i am asking if...
the thing is.... whenever you read about overclocking hwinfo or cpu-z is mentioned to check voltages.
i have a multimeter but i am usually to lazy to open the case and measure it myself. my brother won´t do it at all (and he lives a few hundred km away so i can´t test).
im not sure what value...
so my brother has an asus crosshair hero 6 board with a ryzen 1700.
he overclocked it a bit (all cores @3775 mhz).
now we both wonder that after a bios update (6101 to 6903 if it matters) the core voltage took a huge drop.
before he had around 1.32v when running cinebench (as shown by hwinfo...
well i have asus boards since 2002 and i never had big problems with them (knock on wood).
the problem with error reports on the internet is that EVERYONE can write on the internet by now. it´s not like the 90s. every 14 year old kid is in these forums today.
you read all kind of...
problem is you guys come up with numbers (20% RMA) that you have absolutly no proof of.
so it´s just the usual forum blahblah.....
fact is often there is one guy a member in 5 or 10 forums and if something broke he will write in all these forums.... but it´s just one drive not...
why don´t you store the SSD in your locker?
that way it will not wear out. :)
honest i see reasons to keep some things from the SSD.
huge cache files for example. photoshop cache files for example.
i did not notice a performance gain when i had the 1GB-2GB cache file on the SSD...
hello and excuse my english.... i try to make it clear what im after. ;)
anandtech wrote that a typical desktop pc has around 7GB writes a day.
and that a SSD buyer has not to worry about the only 3000-5000 writes cycles a 25nm flash SSD is good for.
but imho this 7GB a day is more true...
