Hey, so I posted a similar thread on Tom's hardware, and a couple of folks there had some very deep and insightful comments. I would suggest having a look. Looks like 1.2V are not necessarily safe on the 39xx chips. See the thread. Also, looks like the eco mode stock is doing exactly what I...

Yeah, that is my thinking too. I am getting 10-15C lower (!) for a very affordable 5-8% performance hit. And yup, same here actually. Transient single core boosts serve almost no purpose for me.. Am just curious about the nature of this beast.

Alright so I think I am good with just sticking to something like 4.05GHz at 1.2V --> 72C. Actually somehow when I run MATLAB the actual temps the CPU gets to are always 4 - 8 C lower than the Cinebench benchmarking temps. My standard workflow is running a full 16CPU ("worker", in MATLAB...

Hello AnandTheMan, Thanks for the response, good to know that this is running hot and that I need to check this. I am usinga 360 mm Radiator, 120mm Fans x 3. So yes, a liquid cooler that I think is CLC / AIO. I guess I could try to talk to the manufacturer and ask them if they can check the...

Hi all, I am new to the overclocking world, and tried to document the CPU temperatures and Cinebench 20 scores as a function of different combinations of clock frequency caps and Vcore caps. The results are summarized in the attached images (that I am still in the process of filling in, but...
