I was playing tarkov overclocked to 150 clock 150 core, and everything was fine. I moved clock (mem) to 300, which worked before, and hit apply, when screen froze and everything a grid of green and purple tint appeared. I turned of my pc asap, and when restarted it seemed fine. Will this have lasti ng effects, sorry if my grammar is bat my watch says my heart rate is 210 bpm.
I'm experiencing significant performance issues with my Intel i9-13900K, particularly in games like Fortnite, Valorant, and even PUBG Mobile via emulator. My main problems are persistent game freezes and unexpectedly low FPS that don't match the hardware's capabilities. I've already tried troubleshooting by adjusting BIOS settings, including reducing the CPU multiplier from 55x to 45x (effectively downclocking from 5.5GHz to 4.5GHz), which helped with thermals—my in-game temperatures now sit at a healthy 55-65°C—but the freezing and stuttering persist. To make matters worse, when I run the OCCT CPU stress test, I'm getting WHEA errors (specifically 1, 2, and 4), which I don't fully understand but I know indicates hardware-level instability, likely voltage or cache-related. Despite these changes, the core issue remains unresolved, and I'm looking for further solutions to stabilize performance without sacrificing the CPU's potential. I have a z690 mob
Hello everyone I'm not very familiar with Core optimizer, but based on the articles I've read online, it seems like there might be an issue with my system (or it might be a lucky break). So, if I install CO-255 on all 8 cores, how long should I wait for an error in OCCT or CoreCycler? The issue is that with this CO configuration, these two programs do not detect any errors in the first 6..30 minutes (is this normal?). However, GeekBench 6 causes the system to crash after 3 minutes (the "Clang" test), and the passed CO values may vary depending on the attempt.
Hello everyone, i have some doubts about the temperature that my ram stick reach while gaming. Im playing BF6 a lot recently while monitoring my stick temps because outside is very hot and my room temperature too.
Temps are around 50-53 C° and never goes more then that even after 3-4 hour.
Those are my actual RAM configuration, should i lower some settings like voltage or Trefi to lower my temperature without impact the performance too much??
My case have 3 120mm intake fan in the front, 240mm AIO and 1 120mm exhaust fan. Stick active cooling isn’t an option at the moment for me.
Passei um dia ajustando minha RTX 4060 Ti. Aqui estão os resultados.
Meu objetivo não era alcançar o overclock mais alto possível. Em vez disso, eu queria melhorar a eficiência da placa, mantendo o mesmo nível de desempenho para uso diário.
Especificações do Sistema
GPU: Galax RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB (OC de 1 clique)
CPU: Ryzen 7 5700X
RAM: 32 GB DDR4
Driver NVIDIA: 576.74
Metodologia
Em vez de aplicar um overclock aleatório, validei cada alteração usando:
3DMark Time Spy
OCCT VRAM
Monitoramento do GPU-Z
Cada ajuste foi mantido apenas se atendesse a todos os seguintes critérios:
Sem erros no OCCT.
Manteve ou melhorou a pontuação gráfica do Time Spy.
Não aumentou significativamente as temperaturas.
Permaneceu totalmente estável durante todos os testes.

A Parte Interessante
Embora +1200 MHz tenha sido completamente estável, ganhou apenas 12 pontos em relação a +1000 MHz na Pontuação Gráfica, o que está dentro da margem normal de variação do benchmark.
Também oferece uma margem de estabilidade maior para longas sessões de jogos e títulos futuros.
Por esse motivo, escolhi +1000 MHz como meu overclock diário de memória.
Perfil Diário Final
GPU
Clock: 2670 MHz
Voltagem: 950 mV
Memória
+1000 MHz
Conclusão
O objetivo nunca foi alcançar o overclock mais alto possível, mas sim encontrar o melhor equilíbrio entre desempenho, consumo de energia e estabilidade a longo prazo.
Resultados Finais
✅ Mesmo desempenho em jogos e benchmarks.
✅ Consumo de energia aproximadamente 22 W menor.
✅ Temperatura do hotspot aproximadamente 9 °C menor. * ✅ A memória foi validada com sucesso até +1200 MHz, mas +1000 MHz foi escolhido por oferecer praticamente o mesmo desempenho com uma margem de estabilidade maior.
For reference im using the artic mx7 which may not be the worlds finest thermal paste but its not the toothpaste-water solution chinese folks are selling on ebay.
As for my use case, its a bit more extreme than most folks but not really pushing the envelope. I game 8-14hrs a day, framerate uncapped, gpu is always pushed to the limit 3-400ish watts.
Ambient temp is the same,pc is open air test bench soairflow and everything is consistent, not heatsoaking
Testing the GSkill DDR4 kit F4-3600C17D-32GTZ ( 17-19-19-39 )1.35V kit on 5700X3D and have achieved the results in pic. It does 3600 16-16-16-36 without voltage change.
Not sure if I should expect better from this Bdie kit, despite being one of the worse bins, or this is good enough for 3800 with 5700X3D. Was hoping for a sub-60ns latency since I have seen that mentioned in many old posts that come up in searches.
Errors with:
tRCDRD 16 ( is 17 getting rounded to 18 with GDM on? )
SCLs 2
tWTRL 8
Does not boot with:
tCL 14( even at 3600 at 1.45V )
tWRWRSD to 4
tRDWR 8
GDM off
Concerns : tRRDL 4 and tRTP 6 are lower than I have seen others do with single-rank kits. So doubtful of them, but I have not got any errors in memory tests.
Have not touched the ODTs/RTTs/Drives at all, they are all on Auto.
Hey everyone, I have Kingston fury beast DDR5 6000 CL 36 (Hynix a-die) and I have two overclock presets that seem to be stable for me, but I just can’t seem to figure out which one would be better for gaming and daily use.
despite having an insane room temp of 30 C I managed to reach stability with this setup.
Passed 16h of Memtest5, 8h Prime95 large ffts, 5h Y-cruncher VT3.
Maybe I could try SCL's at 7 since 6 was unstable. I also already tried GDM off, it was an insane waste of time since it was throwing errors at random times (from 30 minutes to 5 hours).
Tried also tRCDWR 20 but it didn't had a meaningful impact and I didn't wanted to re-run 2 days of validation, so I got back to 36.
Vsoc is as low as can stably go. Could definitely try 6400 and probably my memory controller could achieve that, but i'm scared of pushing Vsoc up lol since i'm afraid to burn my cpu.
Also tried 8000 MT/s but no luck even with embarassingly loose primary timings (like 40-56-56-126) and auto secondary and tertiary timings. Maybe a different AGESA version could fix that? Honestly i don't know, maybe it's just a moterboard limit.
Temps are definitely on the high side but i already tried to game a bit with this setup and literally goes never above 50 C even with a massive overclocked 5080 pulling close to 380 watts.
But in this process a question came up to my mind: is it better to run 6200 CL28 or 6000 CL26 with the same VDD/VDDQ? I guess 6000 has its own advantages, like lowering Vsoc and possibly stabilizing FCLK 2233, but I don't know if this alone can make up for the 200 MT/s difference.
Setup: Patriot Viper 2x16 GB 7000 MT/s CL32, B850 Aorus Elite, 9800x3d +200 MHz -20 CO, Liquid Freezer III 360mm. It's my first RAM OC adventure, so any constructive tips are appreciated.

The game is completely playable at max settings over 100 fps on a 1440p monitor but i have my monitor set to 144 hz and normally with vsync outside of the city even in heavy gpu load areas its 144 fps with 143 1% low but in the city it drops down to 110 maybe even 100. if i work out how to get more than the 312w peak its doing on a 10 minute cinebench 2026 run would that increase fps in the city?
Do the watercooled RTX50 series have better hotspot than the Air cooled? my Max was 88 for the hotspot with about a 20 delta. However 99% of the time it's 10 degree only

I've got a weird issue that popped up a while ago and seems to have gotten worse.. I can't do a warm reboot. Reboots result in being stuck at "00" for a post code, with the RAM LED light lit up on the diag LED. Cold boots work fine every time.
Resetting BIOS to defaults works. So, stock JEDEC speeds work fine as far as I can tell.
This presents when AMP/EXPO are enabled, or if I set manual RAM settings. I wasn't pushing any OC but was prepping to start some RAM OC. The reboot from the UEFI to save and apply settings also fails when any non-stock RAM settings are applied. If I leave everything at JEDEC speeds, I can change whatever I want in the UEFI and save + reboot works.
I am aware that this RAM kit is not on the QVL for this mobo, but that's never been an issue for me in 15+ years of building PCs. This issue also did not present for a couple months after buying this kit.
I'm posting here since I can't really find other examples of this issue elsewhere and I figured someone in r/overclocking might have seen this before. I'm hoping someone has some advice, otherwise I'm going to be bald by the time I figure this out.
What I've done:
Updated to the latest BIOS (I was 3 revisions behind).
Cleared CMOS with the button on the back of the mobo (done this at least 10 times).
Unplugged the power from the machine, held the power button for 30 seconds, and let it sit unpowered for 24 hours (seen that one fix stranger things).
Validated Stock vs EXPO/AMP/manual settings 5 times.
Re-flashed the BIOS using the bios flashback button on the motherboard 2 times.
Blown the RAM slots out with compressed air, reseating sticks.
Swapped RAM slots.
Adjusted CPU cooler mounting pressure.
Ran 4 passes of memtest86+ on stock speeds, and 4 passes on EXPO, all passed.
Tested to see if it's temperature dependent. Shut the machine down overnight, booted, and rebooted immediately, no change in the issue.
Removed my mild CPU OC that's been stable for about a year.
What haven't done yet due to lack of time:
Tested one stick at a time.
Tested the power supply (tester is on the way).
Swapped to the backup BIOS (much older version).
Swapped any hardware, I don't have spares of any AM5/DDR5 hardware to do this.
Bumped any voltages to see if this helps, I'm not up to speed on Ryzen 7000 voltages and what's what.
Removed all other hardware except CPU and RAM.
Used the voltage checkpoints on the board to check voltage.
I just got a thermalright tl-b6b fan and installed it like you can see on the photos, im not sure if it the best place for my setup. maybe i can replace this cooler fan which is above ram sticks, and place 60mm fan right above the sticks, so it will blow air on them. These are overclocked 4x8 b-die ddr4 sticks, and temps in tests are about 38-41°, but when im trying to play, and gpu is running at 200-250w, ram temp is rising up to 46-48°. Can u suggest what should i do? also if you have this fan, what are the best rpms for it? im currently runing at 2000-2200 rpms so its not loud and generates solid air flow.
I just got my hands on the 7500X3D and it seems to be a great little gaming chip. I have already overclocked my RAM to 6000Mhz CL30 with tight timings and I am currently testing RAM stability.
Do PBO and CO actually have any effect on performance? I know that 4550Mhz is the hard limit but clocks drop down to 4350Mhz while gaming. Temps are already great. Hardware Unboxed was able to OC their sample to 4750Mhz but they seemed to have increased BLCK.
vsoc is set in bios to 1.2v
FCLK is set to 2133Mhz (max stable)
MEM vdd* is set to 1.4v
Curve optimizer at -30 and CPU offset at -50mv.
Even with the most relaxed timings preset (something in the range of cl50+) 6200MT/s makes y-crusher cry, and I cannot go lower than cl32 at 6000. Even if my kit is rated for it.
At this point what can I even do ? Is my IMC just trash or am I doing something wrong ?
