I don't know why people blindly trust that extension. IT's always been like this with all items. And niche ones are even worse. That extension is useful for a rough ideas as to whether a trade is worthwhile or not but aside from that, you should not be trusting that alone. Even so, if you use multiple marketplaces, their prices can vary pretty widely
@@Xantiem It’s usually exactly 1:1 with BUFF/CSfloat pricing.
Some people will always say 'you should have done your research' when it comes to mistakes like these, but the responsibility to provide accurate pricing data is on the extension developer too
@@ivolong It goes both ways, yes. From my perspective, I guess I just didn’t think it was that serious because I only needed like $60 of adds from him.
i really don't see how this has anything to do with the developer. The pricing data IS accurate, the developer is taking the prices directly from priceempire's API. There is nothing they can do from there - the extension user chose that pricing method themselves.
@@tommy5965 Many users select BUFF.163 for their pricing info. There isn’t really any good reason that the extension should be accepting outdated data (if it is). BUFF no longer allowing the sale of those items isn’t something at the forefront of anyone’s mind and it’s very easy for anyone trading for those sorts of items to be mislead. If the extension isn’t going to display accurate pricing data then there’s no point for it to exist. The prices seem to be pretty outdated, so the developer has had quite a long time to rectify it. Edit: I just checked Pricempire, and the pricing for all of the Stockholm 2021 capsule types displays as exactly $0.00 for BUFF.163. The capsules shouldn’t have displayed any sort of value if the extension was updated correctly.

The voltage variance between chips is insane,sadly there's just no way to copy settings. 8200 c36(gskill7600a-die) with 1.365 tx and 1.2 sa(lowering it to 1.2 was the golden ticket) changing other voltages had little to no effect on stability. 7 hours of karhu and 1 hour of vt3 for stability testing. Guess I have a good IMC bin which I never knew about since I was on a 4 dimm earlier struggling with 7600-800 for months. I've run it like for a couple of weeks now and no retraining issues so far.unlike my 4 dimm which one day runs 10+hours karhu next coldboot it's crashing all over the place. Now my bad core bin doesn't bother me as much(1.47vid for 6 ghz).
Just set the thermal limit to 88c. Loading shaders yes all cores will boost the CPU to 100% and pass 250 watts. I wouldn't let the cpu go past 88c.
do you need to use the sync cable for the rgb to turn on at all?
@@buffbacon9663 no
I'm disappointed with the 0x12B microcode. I can't use AC_LL with CEP enabled anymore. I used to run AC 0.1, DC 1.1 & LLC 3 on my ASUS motherboard. First thing I noticed is that my RAM OC is now unstable and I had to lower my command rate from 1T to 2T which makes me upset as I spent a week testing it for stability. Also, applying a -100mV adaptive SVID seems to do nothing at all. Both idle and load voltage are now higher and my Cinebench score dropped by ~8%. It's a lose-lose situation. My CPU had not degraded in 2 years of using it.
I saw another test for this motherboard and to get the 8600xmp profile rates was a must to use 2 x 24g 7200 ram sticks. He said using the 2x16g sticks wouldn't work for that....he used this motherboard so that is what he says it's not got some features, but it's great on performance if you are looking for a budget build and don't need those other features.
TVB voltage optimizations decreases voltage depending on temperature. That's why your idle voltages are lower.
@@TheMongolHordes I get that, but that’s not what the feature claims to do haha. I’m just not sure why they don’t give us a proper description of how it functions.
👍
intel chips are a literal clown fiesta these days, i lucked out with my first 14900kf which ran 8200 c38 with maxed out trefi 2x24gb sticks 9hours karhu stable and then the idiotic AI tuner from asus degraded the chip in 8 months down to the point where it only could do 5,5 allcore, then i bought another one for discount and this chip is impossible to get stable at any speed. i just ordered 9950x and a taichi board now i'm done fiddling with this literal garbage any longer
what about the setting enhanced c-states is it forced on like on ASUS mobo with 0X12B microcode? for me on the apex encore it forced on and ruins the performance so badly also the latency much bad now! the meaning for C1E state for the cpu
@@YGadgETech Unfortunately 0x12B does force it. It shouldn’t matter much for gaming and heavier apps though. It forces the CPU to downclock during light loads.
@ but it seems only for ASUS it’s happening for Msi and gigabyte you can still tweak the setting and disable it for what I see
@ I don’t think there’s any real benefit in disabling it for practical use. If you need to keep it disabled, the older BIOS should still be fine enough to use.
@ but can I roll back with new Intel ME version ?
@ which mobo vendor do you have btw?
Just lock the p Cores at 5.7 e cores at 4.5 with a v droop from 3.5 V to 2.7 and no core degradation. If you Have a not so good chip up the voltage a tenth or so Ez Peezy
Is there way u can go in the bios in a different video?
@@Mikey-lx9xs I can’t record BIOS as I don’t have a dual PC setup with a capture card, unfortunately. The BIOSs are all so different that there isn’t really much that my ASRock BIOS will convey that’ll be of any help to ASUS, EVGA, Gigabyte and MSI users.
I have a 14900ks and been running it just like your steps.. best case scenario, 0.01 LL, 6ghz all core, ht off, only 8 e-cores. Getting atound 28k cinebench score. I have had a offset applied but soon went with no offset. There seems to be more instability. LL undervolt works better for me too. Direct die cooled
@@louishoffmann4459 Funnily enough, Best Case and AC LL 0.01 are the same setting. I believe the AC LL values overrides the SVID profile.
Oh right, I wouldn't know but just want to say this method has been working very vrey well.
what's the formula for optimal trfcpb?
@@jameyt1 I don’t believe such a thing exists. The rules that have been proposed online are not followed by certain JEDEC regulations and my BIOS at auto breaks said rules when loading default settings. I personally just have a set target depending on the IC type and scale the tRFC that way. For my H16A I use 120ns for tRFC2 and 100ns for tRFCpb. For old H16M I used to stick to 100ns for tRFC2 and 90ns for tRFCpb. For H24M, I’d probably use 160ns for tRFC2 and 120ns for tRFCpb.
@@dainluke appreciate it
My board actually follows the rule (at auto) trfc value divided by 1.23 to get the trfcpb value. So i am following that rule on my board since then and it works aight.

i have a i7-14700F with a gigabyte b760m ds3h motherboard. i installed F18d bios update that included 0x129 microcode and undervolted -0.100 leaving everything on auto/default. a month and a half later, i never had any problem, crashing, BSoD,etc. everything ran below 1.3v or just a tiny bit above 1.3v under load(not that heavy, just gaming). last night i found that gigabyte released F19 bios update. Man, what a shitshow it was, Core VIDs, vcore, and vr-vout all increased those values, even higher than 1.4v reaching 1.45v idle (just loading windows). i undervolted -0.100v and then -0.125v but still got higher numbers in idle than gaming with F18d version so i decided to go back to that. thankfully i had that version saved because gigabyte deleted it from their website after releasing the F19 version last september. i don't know what is going on, but there's my 2 cents of personal experience with this crap intel problem.
I’m having difficulty understanding what you mean by AC_LL targets: Crap CPU 0.5 decent CPU .25 etc. I’m new to all this. I found this setting by changing the CPU lite load control to advanced and now shows the CPU AC Load Line. It’s set to auto and shows 110 as the current setting
@@frankmjr6571 With MSI it’s multiplied by 100 when you go to advanced. You can also adjust the mode (downwards) to decrease it.
I havent encountered that hwinfo would mess up bitrate, i guess it could if you have very frequent polling period like sub 500ms then maybe it can have some impact. But YC by default runs at "bellow normal" priority and windows can drop it into background task and that I know for a fact it lowers bitrate to levels you had in the last video. setting YC priority:0 or priority:1 which translates into "normal" or "above normal" priority - though "above normal" priority can mess hwinfo values i.e ram temp at 3999c etc, which can be mitigated by running hwinfo at higher priority. Id drop all PLL stuff and only mess with them as last resort, most important are SA and TX to and then RTTs - in that order. I saw you ran fairly strong RTTs which most likely gave you hard time. You also might get lower VDD2 with weaker RONs. Keep up the fight dawg, Its clear that you can make this 8200Mhz dailyable when you figure out these boundaries.
I enjoyed the video and all the points you're making. In my systems, I prefer to have CEP enable, so I m using a hybrid method of AC_LL and offset for my under-volt with good results. I also agree with the idea of you, making an under-volt tutorial because it would help so many people out there. Thanks!

Hello, good coverage. I should ask you, is it bad that my pc has been running 1.4-1.5V idle voltages for 4 months? I got this 14700k in June with an MSI z790 TOMAHAWK WIFI. Since the news I’ve just been installing some of the microcodes and left int default settings. I don’t think I’ve had my cpu crash but still worried these idle voltages are unhealthy and have degraded my cpu. Under stress test my cpu would go down to 1.2-1.3. I have disabled Enhanced Turbo which hasn’t done anything noticeable to idle volts/temps. Would appreciate any advice.
@@88prince I’d say so. I’d highly recommend trying to reduce MSI Lite Load’s mode as close to 1 as possible. Lite load controls AC_LL. You might need to disable CEP to prevent performance reduction.
@@dainluke Thanks for the advice, I’ve been looking at other comments you’ve made. I went down to Mode 5 and disabled IA/GT CEP which significantly lowered temps and voltages for both idle and stress in cinebench 2024 test (which even had a slightly higher score by 50pts). Idle is floating above 1.3V which i assume is safe and will no longer cause degradation. 1.4-1.5V is a difference. I just hope my cpu hasn’t degraded already. Also I tried mode 1 but my PC just crashed upon running a stress test and idle volts still were close 1.3 V most of the time. I’d rather keep it at 5 as the difference seems small. Also for anyone that may be interested, my PL1 and PL2 are on auto (253W) which I believe are intel default settings and the microcode is x012B of course.
@@88prince Mode 5 is an awesome result
You forget vintage computing. In 15 years its value should bottom out. In 30 to 40 years working it should be going for similar price to what it was brand new. A lack of surviving CPUs for vintage computing in the future is a potential problem. Assuming windows 10 gaming becomes a thing like dos and Windows xp gaming is today.
I have noticed a slight drop on single threaded but not change to multithreaded. Also do we have any idea what this microcode actuallt changes? Its difficult to observe difference in voltage spikes at light loads.
There is a known flaw in the ringbus that causes oxidation under high voltage - NOT electromigration. That's why they clamped it.
Lol what degradation mechanism causes in silicon oxidation under load? Anyone claiming that there is a "ring bus flaw" is just parroting clueless MLID comments, someone who is notorious for having a poor technical understanding.

DDR5 settings unfortunately cannot be copied because of how much electrical variance exists between different combinations of hardware. To my knowledge, however, you should have 0 issue running XMP with the latest BIOSs. If for some reason XMP is acting up, definitely switch the sticks around and see if they begin behaving better.

Imagine not understanding a topic and vapidly arguing against it without even offering a counter-argument. You're frying your ICC/Ringbus with 2 p-core boosting and I'm comfy knowing that 1) you didn't even know about the issue and 2) you're so butthurt about being told about the issue that you deny it is an issue without having any knowledge of the issue You're so silly.
@@jabronilifestyle When have I ever contested you on whether the ringbus is more sensitive than the IA cores themselves? When have I ever contested you on that sufficient voltages under sufficient conditions will cause degradation? The reason I am not concerned about 2-core boosts or the ringbus is because so long as the core/cache rail is kept in check, most decent chip samples will be just fine. Aside from my own CPU samples, I’ve tested others too. Two cases where individuals came to me with faulty CPUs, their BIOSs were old and they’d been using uncapped limits for months on end. It could be that high voltage from 2-core boosts degraded their ring silicon, or it could be that they’d been running at 300W with 1.25-1.3V at load. The 5.7P all-core target was always too high and if you look at the Intel spec page, they never intended the 14900K to be a 5.7P part. The same thing goes for the 13900K - it was never meant to target 5.5P at load.
Don't you thing AC_LL at Intel value of 1.1mOhms and matching VRM loadline doesnt cause 13gen and 14gen CPU's to degrade? Of course your's doesn't have noticeable degradation as it has sensible AC_LL together with matching VRM loadline and CEP on.
@@volodumurkalunyak4651 AC_LL 1.1 mOhm was not the default setting until they began using it as the default setting in April because of CPUs not being able to run AC_LL at values of say 0.5, which were the standard on Z690/Z790 boards up until Intel began telling vendors they need to use 1.1. After AC_LL 1.1 mOhm was enforced, Intel realised that 14th Gen chips were probably going to be screwed because board vendors were targeting 5.7P, and they enforced necessary voltage caps on the new microcode. AC_LL 1.1 mOhm could not have been the cause of degradation initially, because literally no one was using 1.1 mOhm AC_LL until the degradation issue came to light. Flash any ASUS BIOS from 2022-2023 and tell me what the “Trained” SVID selects as an AC_LL. It’s definitely not Fail Safe.
@@dainluke AC_LL is only half of the picture. VRM load line is the outher half. If VRM load line is significantly higher then AC_LL then CPU wont be stable from not having enought voltage at high load. If BOTH of those are very low and match, then CEP (clock streching) is required for stability. If AC_LL is too high then CPU will aks for too much voltage.
@@dainluke of course initial AC_LL wasn't the dafault. Moutherboard manufacturers were silently undervolting the CPU's. Then CPU got unstable so Intel forced them into way worse: permanently degrading the CPU's. Having CEP on, very low VRM load line and very low (matching to VRM load line) AC_LL - Intel still refuses to recommend. They STILL want their AC_LL 1.1mOhm fantasyland.
@@volodumurkalunyak4651 CEP wasn’t a factor on older BIOSs, which is why app errors and crashes would occur prior to any clock stretching. Every BIOS prior to March had uncapped limits which also disabled CEP. The chips were crashing because uncapped current/power combined with lack of CEP and shallow AC_LL meant that 14900K/13900K samples targeting their 5.7P/5.5P VID targets would inevitably lose stability at high temperatures running heavy loads. Intel didn’t spec the 13900K for 5.5 and they didn’t spec the 14900K for 5.7. Don’t take my word for it though - have a look at the product page. Falkentyne on OCN also brought this to our attention many times, including December of 2022 when Ichirou degraded ten of his 13900K test samples. It was then that we learnt that the 5.5P 13900K VID point, and consequently the 5.7P 14900K VID point, are actually not at all safe for daily use especially when the current and power limits are maxed. All vendors used reasonable LLC settings. ASUS auto used to be mode 3 at stock, and Gigabyte and other vendors used similar conservative automatic VRM LLC values. On older BIOSs, AC_LL was always shallow. Again, don’t take my word for it. In BZ’s video from a few months ago, he investigated Gigabyte AC_LL. Hardware Unboxed initially reported that some boards were not capable of sustaining their 14900K sample’s 5.7P target, and that was because some of their test boards had AC_LLs that were far too low.
@@volodumurkalunyak4651 I agree with you that 1.1 mOhm is a problem. Intel tried to fix the initial crashing by forcing vendors to use 1.1 (with capped power limits), but then began to realise that their 14th Gen samples - and some 13th Gen samples in some scenarios - would draw too much voltage and then began addressing that with future patches. Everyone should definitely update to 0x12B, especially on 14th Gen and especially if they are not planning to manually undervolt. That’s something I’m not arguing against at all.
It's widely known that Intel is recently regularly running out of 13900K/KS/KF and 14900K/KS/KF, even the 14700K for RMAs. The chips are degrading even on safe settings due to idle voltage hiking, which is why companies that use them in server environments are having them fail in the thousands since they are powered up and idling a lot of the time. Which they are addressing/addressed with recent microcode update of 0x12b.
@@XenonG They are offering refunds as well, even to the biggest dickheads imaginable, so I’m sure that anyone who communicates with respect will be given a refund. A large batch of 14th Gen silicon and the later batches of 13th Gen silicon, according to Intel, exhibits a stronger tolerance to voltage. The early release BIOSs of ASUS boards and those of other vendors used shallow AC_LL values which is why 14900K chips often crashed under load (insufficient load voltage). Although some chips probably do have issues degrading due to idle voltages under the right circumstances, every case of electromigration that I’ve come across stems from the individual using a load voltage that was too high alongside a high current draw load. An individual in the comments was kind enough to admit that he’d been running Blender and UE5 renders on his chip without making any adjustments to the then-stock BIOS settings (with MCE enabled).
@@dainlukeno. Shallow AC_LL is fine. It just needs matching VRM load line (like level "turbo") and should get matching DC_LL (the same value) and CEP on. People shouldn't adjust everything to make Intel 13gen or 14gen CPU stop killing themselves. It is an Intel fault that those unsafe defaults are the defaults.
@@dainluke >without making any adjustments to the then-stock BIOS settings (with MCE enabled). I stated the exact opposite and you're just a liar - I've caught you lying about me multiple times now. That's so fucking cringe and pathetic. You make videos lying to people then when people correct you, you make comments calling them liars. That's manchild shit and you're a proven liar JUST to white knight for Intel. That's so pathetic it's hard to fathom.
@@volodumurkalunyak4651 The reason I’m mentioning the shallow stock AC_LLs is because that condition counters the current theory that suggests that high idle/low load voltages are solely responsible for degrading Intel chips. I’m not saying that shallow AC_LL isn’t fine and I’m not even referring to the DC_LL/LLC thing regarding accurate sensors - I know. What I’m trying to say is that the fact that there were very shallow AC_LLs makes me question the current rhetoric of how people believe 13th Gen chips degraded.
I just built a new pc with i7 14700k, after getting to windows I immediately downloaded latest microcode update, I have a msi z790 mag Tomahawk max wifi, I updated bios, however when running hwinfo64 I see that volts go up to 1.48 for brief moments, how can I deal with that? Can I help by undervolting?
@@Takeito_ Head to the section in “Advanced CPU” labelled MSI Lite Load. Select “Advanced” and check what the AC_LL is. You’re likely going to see 110 (1.1 mOhm). You’re going to want to either change the Lite Load Mode to reduce that value, or simply type in a less value of maybe 50 or 60 (as opposed to 110).
I just went into that and CPU lite load control was in "normal" when I changed it to advance it indeed showed me 110 but there are two load lines "AC" and "DC" should I put 60 on both and could you explain again what will that do in terms of volts/temps/performance? Shouldn't I try with a less aggressive decreased value and monitor?
I have 23 different modes in lite load, 16 is chosen by default (auto) maybe I can try and choose 14 or 15 and start monitoring to see how it does in terms of volts/temps?
@@Takeito_ I’m going to give you one response that’s more concise. Setting DC_LL without matching it to the corresponding motherboard VRM LLC setting (you need to know the VRM values off hand) will compromise accuracy of the package power sensor. You don’t have to do manual AC_LL values, but I’d definitely drop down to Mode 10 at the bear minimum. I think you’re going to be fine as low as Mode 5. Mode 10 equates to 0.6 mOhm of AC_LL. 0.6 is still a substantial amount of voltage. Average quality chips operate totally fine in the 0.2-0.4 mOhm range, but I’d say go ahead and testing Mode 10 and reduce from there to see how low you can get your voltages.
Thanks! I will change to mode 10 and test with hWinfo software monitoring.
even if there was a percent or 2 of performance, a choice between "burn out your $600 cpu in a year or 2, or have a minor performance decrease" should be easy for most people ...

This video aged like a vintage Rolex Daytona.
The engineers at Intel had a CEO problem. The CEO would not invest a competitive fab process. To get Intel’s fab process to work at higher frequencies for their performance cores, they would allow a short time boost and a thermal velocity boost. These “boosts” frequencies were limited by a 100 C temperature limit. However there is a delay in sensing the temperature. Repeated exposure these delays leads to thermal damage (migration). There was a significant boost in performance between the 12 and 13 gen high end Intel CPUs because of a more aggressive implementation of this strategy. Gamers would be likely to use thermal velocity boost more often and with great benefit because of the interment loading during game play. The thermal velocity boost can kill the CPU. Almost everyone uses the extreme memory profile (XMP) and Intel don’t have to give out new CPUs to those that do. I can report my experience, with a sample size of two, 13900k CPUs systems that I built for an AI programmer to be used to test code for both AI learning and inference. The code was initially tested using the CPU, while the test using large data bases used 4090 GPUs. Both systems used 2 sticks of 32GB 6400 MHz ram running at 6000 MHz. Two computers were used for reliability so that a failure of one would only cause a delay of a few hours. The thermal solution was tested using Cinebench R23 for the CPU while Furmark ran on the GPU. The goal was to get the highest Cinebench score while maintaining a CPU temperature in the low 80s C. This would allow higher ambient temperatures and dust accumulation. The Cinebench R23 multi score just over 38,000. Then short time and thermal velocity boosts were disabled. Again frequencies were adjusted to maximize Cinebench scores. These result were guarded by current and power maximums. The CPU’s package temperature was 82 C with a Cinebench R23 multi score just over 40,000. Why could I get higher Cinebench scores with velocity boost disabled? I do not know. I suspect that Intel uses thread swapping to a cooler core when the thread has a given temperature difference with a cooler core. This would relieve the stress that would happen if the thread was not swapped and magnificent heat only came from one part of the CPU. I think that velocity boost increases thread swapping. Thread swapping takes time away from useful Cinebench operations. You sample size of one and my sample size of two are both significantly meaningless.
@@dyson9422 While using TVB, did you notice higher-than-usual voltages and higher clocks due to the chip attempting to boost further? The 13900K does experience two-cores boosts, but they don’t seem to operate during all-core workloads. The 13900K has an all-core target of 5.5. In your testing did you ever observe it attempting higher due to TVB? I’ve tested around 25 Intel 10nm chips. 2X13900Ks 1X13700K 5X12900K/KFs were my own, and the other numerous chips belonged to friends and other individuals whose PCs I was able to conduct testing on. I’m just mentioning this so you know it’s not just a single chip I’ve based my deductions on.
could also simply caused by thermal buffer eaten faster with a very high short power limit, by running at lower power and thus thermal resistance it actually perform better in the longer run
@@dyson9422 higher scores with TVB disabled - that is very simple. Disabling TVB is actually botched. It should disallow highest frequencies at any temperature not at t>70°C, but instead it allows highest frequencies at all temperatures.
@@volodumurkalunyak4651 TVB’s options don’t reflect on every board, but on ASUS TVB has modes that allow extending turbo at the same voltage or targeting an all-core (boost until target). As far as I have observed and understand, TVB does not affect the all-core of the CPU at stock. It just causes that 2-core max boost thing that we all see.
@@dainluke > It just causes that 2-core max boost thing that we all see You mean the 2 core boost to p-cores that the Intel designers warned against going back to 12th gen because it was too much for the ICC and Ringbus to handle? That one? Fucking amateur bro. I called you a midwit before. I take that back. You can't even touch triple digits, 100%.
