Not sure about the YouTube 4k preset but Puget systems recently did a round up and Intel seems to be ahead still if you're using h.264 or h.265 thanks to QuickSync acceleration.
Ryzen 3000 vs Intel 9000 Premiere Pro Roundup
According to this chart my 3900x P95 stable at 4.35 is in the top 5% of bins which I find to be relatively surprising because I don't see very good single core boosts on my sample...
Can confirm that small pea TIM method doesn't work too well with 3900x. I had to re-apply mine with an X and then I spread it out evenly using the spatula that Thermal Grizzly includes with their TIM. Mine sits at mid-low 30's and max load 80-85 with Prime95 mixed test at 4.35 all core on a...
Voted for small issues I can live with. 3900x on Crosshair VIII Wifi and Gskill Royal 3600 CL 16 RAM, system is 100% rock solid after tweaking per CCX overclocks and running Ryzen RAM calculator. My only gripe is that I haven't been able to play Apex Legends since I changed from my 4790k to the...
I've been finding that the stock algorithms are very loose and don't really seem to make a lot of sense when it comes to boosting the 3900x. Run a few ST benches and find your best clocking CCX/Cores and use the per CCX OC tool to set a manual OC, you should at the very least be able to get your...
@DisEnchantment I would just get a new mini ITX case to be honest. There's not a whole lot of room in there to breathe, there are quite a few on the market that can easily handle a 240mm radiator without any complications.
Also be sure to check your background applications and make sure you aren't running more than one form of HW monitor (iCue and CAM also count if you're using them for RGB). If you run 2 monitoring apps they will continuously probe the CPU to wake up and cause the 1.4v pinned at idle issue. Kill...
After 2 days of tinkering I gave up on the stock behavior of the chip for the last time. The new CCX OC tool is out with VID control so I've just OC'ed my golden CCX to 4.5 and pin my ST heavy apps with process lasso to that set of threads and set ccx2 to 4.4, and ccx 3-4 to 4.35. Scores are...
I'll be trying 3566 with CL 14 tonight and compare that to my previous scores to see how it stacks up. As much as I loved the all core speed at 4.4 manual, seeing the voltage go down to sub .9v at desktop made me a lot happier.
Ninja edit: As an amendment to my previous post about boost clocks...
Solid news everyone, in the final minutes of my night last night, after 2 weeks of tinkering I finally got my x570 Crosshair VIII Hero to boost to the correct clocks under stock settings.
After a lot of poking around on reddit there was a theory going around that on some x570 boards that were...
In a sample size of 3 (my own and 2 friends, all pre-ordered together) all 3 show that 1 chiplet is "elite" bin and the second is either a "good" bin or a "meh" bin. My coworkers does 4.5 all core turbo but gets a little too hot for a daily driver at around 92C on a Dark Rock Pro 4 so his is a...
On x570 Crosshair VIII Hero the DRAM calculator worked perfectly for me. If you scroll up a bit you can see my results at 3600 14-14-14-28 with DRAM calculator optimized sub timings. Granted this was 3600 CL16 binned B-Die RAM and not 3200 CL14 bin, so that may be why I'm not having any troubles...
If you have stability issues still with manual fclck some people were reporting that uclck needs to be manually set to 1/2 the fclck speed to guarantee stability in 1:1 for some BIOS that don’t auto adjust.
That’s a good call, the ASUS boards appear to be particularly bad at attempting to overvolt the CPU with no tangible gain. As of last night I started having device hung crashes on Apex and dxdevice lost on Overwatch about 15 minutes into playing. So my advice is to steer clear of ASUS until they...
For anyone else in my boat having terrible luck with clocks on an ASUS x570 board Thestilt got in contact with ASUS and has received a fixed BIOS that will be public release shortly.
I'm beginning to believe there's a correlation that a lot of the people not getting 4.6 in any way shape or form are all running ASUS boards (myself included).
I tried every possible combination of power plans, PBO settings, voltage offsets, and performance enhancer to no avail. Max turbo clock...
You're honestly not alone, my x570 Croshair VIII Hero is doing an absolutely terrible job of boosting and managing voltage at full stock settings with latest AGESA and AMD Chipset Driver. No single core boosts over 4.2 and ACT is 4.1 regardless of PBO settings. Currently running manual OC to 4.3...
These are trying times and I'm glad we're here together for emotional support. All jokes aside I've waited 5 years to replace my trusty 4790k, two more day's won't kill me.
Mark said it a little better than I did. Depending on motherboard vendor certain UEFI's were over volting the chips a tad higher than necessary and there were quite a few users reporting better temps with similar boost clocks with a small negative voltage offset.
Newegg didn't get my mobo out by cut off time so now my parts won't be here on my day off to complete my build on Thursday. I'm filled with indescribable first world sadness now. Please send pics of your builds to get me through the day.
@VirtualLarry does your motherboard support negative...

Have you looked at the Dark Rock TF cooler? We just installed one for a client at the shop last week and had a great experience with it, temperatures were excellent for CPU and VRMS.

This is true but it is a bit silly that they're going to sell the CPU's without reviews or motherboards a week before you can get information on them. If they don't want Intel to price cut before hard launch they could just skip pre-orders all together and just hard launch. They have my business...
I'm really not a fan of pre-orders going up before reviews are available. I feel like if they're going to be taking money from customers, at the very least some early performance benches and partial reviews should be available. Here's to two more weeks of pre-release anxiety :beercheers:
The specs on that Aorus Master board look really good but I'm weary of Aorus UEFI support for overclocking. If its the CH8H vs Aorus Master even with better phase and VRM set up, ASUS UEFI support pushes me over towards the RoG side.
I sell custom PC's for a living and anytime we special order...
You might be able to use the virtual processing from an on board audio chipset or sound card while passing through the signal to a better amp or DAC using TOSLINK S/PDIF (I used to do this before switching to a USB DAC) to keep the surround emulation but with better fidelity. That kind of combo...
Go for it on the panel. I've never regretted getting my Acer Predator X27 IPS since the day I bought it, it always catches ooh's and aaaah's at LAN's when I take it with me due to how sharp the colors look for a 144Hz.
I need some advice from the forum, in the weeks leading up this launch I...
The demand is definitely there, I personally know around a dozen people that will pre-order Zen 2 and x570 at launch. The reason I haven't owned AMD hardware since Phenom II was because of their value position in the market. They have always had a good product that checked most of my boxes but...
It's not an odd argument at all. The terms affordable and expensive are relative terms and are not absolute. A board that is $59 here is probably equivalent to $125-150 in some countries (Mexico for example where I have family). We get caught up in the enthusiast bubble sometimes and forget that...
You're forgetting the biggest reason that this would be true. Aggressive binning and product segmentation. AMD isn't going to be giving top tier SC performance away for a fraction of the top end SKU, they want to push ASP's and margins into Intel territory and this is how you achieve that. I...
