    As someone who owns the 5800x3D and undervolted it, you've limited the PPT TDC EDC a little too much with 100 70 100. Try 122, 82 and 124 while keeping the -30 on all cores, you should see better results while keeping the temps down simultaneously.

    You will loose Cinebench (and Gaming) score if you limit PPT, EDC and TDC to these common values . Just undervolt to -30 (or how deep you can go stable) and you get a massiv boost in games and CB. The CPU will stay cool and saving. Disable CPPC Preferred Cores (but keep CPPC enabled), since it can make problems in games and lower the FPS and is not needed. And if you check Ryzen Master under stress testing conditions than you will see that the 58X3D never reaches 142, 95, 140 stock limits. Max under workload is ca 115, 70, 115. So limiting is not needed at all. Just go for the Curve Optimizer. Classic UV & OC is not possible on a 3D (for good reasons). Easy going with the 58X3D: CO to -25 or -30 and Preferred Cores Disabled. That's all you need to do :)

That said, I might try lower just out of curiosity even though at minus 30, I get 100% speed from all cores 100% of the time (if the applications demand it of course).

      I only just got mine yesterday and have been too busy installing Windows, games and other apps to do any proper undervolt testing yet. But after 4 hours of up time after the initial Windows install, I reduced the curve to minus 10 and after another 4 hours of perfection in game testing took it down to minus 20. Although it is perfectly happy there as well I'm not going lower without proper testing rather than just testing the game installations.

    I am late to the "party" but I run PPT=120, TDC=85, EDC=120. This is a slightly modified 122/82/124 that many people recommend for gaming, both work well, it just seems like my system like that 120/85/120 SLIGHTLY better, its almost within variance, I am pretty much min/maxing at this point. This is all with NO LLC, and my phase control on EXTREME for a full 16 phase power delivery, and a -30 voltage offset.
    I may start playing around with manual undervolting, I did that with my 3800X where I slightly overclocked while undervolting, I got my 3800X to run 4.5Ghz all core at 1.25v, so its possible but silicon lottery plays a significant factor in capability and my 3800X seems to be a 1% binned chip.
    But right now with no LLC, extreme power phase profile, a -30 offset, and a 120/85/120 I am very happy with the results. My 5800X3D idles at 42C, and with Cyberpunk 2077 on max settings at 1440P (yes I know its not 1080 so its less CPU intensive) it sits at 55C-58C. Prime95 Small FFT 30 minute testing saw a temperature of 77C vs stock where it hit 90C, that's a 13C difference under extreme testing!

      i always use llc at the second highest setting at the most.. you find the best setting when you lock your vcore and see in which setting it changes the least when idle to 100% usage.. less the better. / the more stable the vcore the better.

    I do own a 5800X3D with a 4080 and gaming in 1440p and after many many tests my best results came with CO -25 all cores (-30 was not stable for me) and PBO limits on stock (disabled on my mobo). I played with these a lot but in the end stock values seemed to do the trick on most scenarios and it seemed snappier overall. And also something else that helped a bit was turning CPPC preferred cores option to Disabled. All the cores for this CPU can hit 4.45 GHz no swet so there is no need for having preferred cores enabled. Some people who play mostly competitive like to turn off C-states as well to improve 1% lows but that didn't have any impact for my case.

      Preferred cores should be disabled since it makes problems in some games and lowers FPS. I got freezes at -28 and than i enabled Global C State and CPPC and disabled Pref. Cores. After that -30 is rockstable for me. But every system and CPU is different... PPT, EDC and TDC will lower your workstation performance in cinebench etc. Best compromise is just to leave it stock. PBO is disabled with the 58X3D. That's right light that. No OC on a 3D for reasons...

    Install AMD Ryzen Master and run the cuve optimizer auto offset, choose per core and the let the app tell you how much values each core can handle. This will make your undervolting much easier. One or more cores might be experiencing instability at higher clocks with the offset you used and have to be clocked down, thus, the performance hit.

    • @dkindig
      @dkindig 10 місяців тому +3

      Yes, I used this and it worked well. I had some instability but I fixed that over time by going in and raising the lowest voltage by 1 mv each time I got bounced and running my normal routine again for a while. Gradually my system completely stabilized. Not very scientific, I know, but it worked. Running a 5800X and under the heaviest loads I can't make it hit thermal throttling (85*) and it runs at a constant 4.6-4.8 GHz (Fuma Scythe 2 air cooler in 23* ambient room).

    • @jonathanparle8429
      @jonathanparle8429 5 місяців тому

      But this does not help the instability at lower voltages which is - at least in my experience - where the pitfalls exist with the curve optimiser. You can easily select offsets and very simply test for stability at full load but there is no reliable and 100% repeatable test for stability at the lower voltages on the curve when the CPU might have next to nothing or little to do. And in those situations the relative undervolting is much higher than at the top of the voltage curve. You can really only test that using the computer "normally", as in using it with the applications you would normally use and over a period of some weeks. I wish we had the equivalent of the ASUS GPUTweak OC Scanner, but for the CPU. It would mean a stable voltage frequency curve at all voltage points rather than just at flat out.

    Interesting results David. I have two Ryzen 7's, An earlier build with a 5800x and one with the 5800X3D. My original 5800X I needed to under volt with PBO + Curve. (-20 offset, Wasn't stable any higher of an offset) This Setup performs excellent with Cool temps and higher sustained clock speeds. (CineBench R23: 16000/1600 Multi/Single scores) (32 gigs of Ripjaws 3600mhz CL 16. two sticks) As for the Ryzen 7 5800X3D.. I didn't bother to touch the under volting, Only because of the needed power for the extra cache supply. I'm just using a brute force air build with an incorporated Noctua D15 and Lian Li Lan Cool 216 case. Also my 3D chip has the RTX 4080. No heat issues to worry about. I did weigh in the idea of under volting but realized it ran so smooth and cool the way it was setup. Thanks for the enlightening video. Cheers!

    What i did next was used the scalar x10 added 200mhz on to clock speed and used -26 on all cores, i ran into some instability when the cpu was doing very little work, so i futher tuned and realised that the prefered cores, the gold star and the silver dot and cores that worked with these on low workloads needed less negative on them, so my cores now look like this core 1= minus 24, core 2= minus 18, core3= minus 26, core 4= minus 26, core 5= minus 24, core 6= minus 24, core 7= minus 18, core 8= minus 26.
    on my cpu core 2 , core 7 , core 1 , core 5 , core 6 all have lower negative numbers as these cores are the most used for general useage the rest of the cores only come into use under heavy workloads and so have a higher negative number. when the popular most used cores are in full useage it doesnt really matter how much negative you put on the least used cores as most of the cpu is powered up by the time these cores are used, if you put too much negative on the most used cores these cores work on there own and so therefore need more voltage to handle smaller more used tasks.

    You dont need to power limit (PPT/EDC), you can use your voltagelimit to do that if you want it to actually run cooler, more on that later. Because in reality, PBO tuning is technically not an undervolt. The voltage is determined by the power draw, temperatures and other factors, and the CPU will then pick the corresponding frequency associated with that voltage via its internal curve. PBO tuning or curve optimizing, shifts the frequencies associated by the voltage. So, at the given voltage based on power draw yada yada, it picks a higher frequency. Therefor, any claims of lowered temps and power draw is untrue, since it still uses the same voltage and package power, it just clocks higher.
    At -20 you already hit 4450 all-core in gaming workloads, so going from -20 to -30 does nothing. But, you can still utilize the extra range in another way. What you can do, is combine a NEGATIVE OFFSET on your vcore with PBO. Something like -50 to -100mvtt. That will drop the voltage, but also the frequency. You can use the additional range from -20 to -30 to curve optimize as far as you can go, to not have clocks drop below your target.
    I ended up with something like -75mvtt negative offset, and -25 on PBO tuner, to hit 4450 in gaming workloads. It still goes to 4425 in blender or cinebench, but i dont care, i dont do professional workloads with the CPU. That will, unlike only PBO tuning, drop the temperatures and power draw. Also, using the voltage limit like this means it'll not bounce off the power target and drop clocks. Which you're not verifying on-screen. You need to actually hit 4450, otherwise you're just throttling it. No wonder its worse.

      PBO can't be used with a 3D and is therefore always disabled. No OC with a 3D for reaons! PPT, TDC EDC is not needed since the 3D goes only to 115, 70, 115 und stress testing (Ryzen Master). It never comes close to AMD stock limits of 142, 95, 140. So no tuning needed. Only Curve Optimizer to -25 or -30. 3D is not like a regular Zen 3. You can't do classic UV and OC. So just CO to -30 and CPPC preffered Cores off. That's all what's meaningful...

    For my 5700X3D I didn't really see the point of undervolting. Sure, in Cinebench it clocked from the 3.9 - 3.95GHz range at the standard voltage up to 4.05GHz constant after undervolting. However, when gaming it would clock up to it's max 4.05GHz anyway at standard voltage. Because it's not as heavy CPU load as stuff like Cinebench. And I don't use my PC to run Cinebench all the time :P I use it for regular browsing, youtube, email and gaming. So basically my cooler is good enough to keep it at max boost at default voltage when gaming. It may make a bit more sense with the 5800X3D if you don't get it's full boost when gaming with it's default voltage. Like if it clocks down to 4.25 - 4.35GHz when gaming. Undervolting it will make it run it's full 4.45GHz boost when gaming.

    @hasnihossainsami8375 10 місяців тому +2

    As nice as undervolting the 5800X3D in a typical desktop scenario is, where it really shines is in SFF builds. The 5800X3D is an absolute beach to cool in SFF, not just because of the incredibly inefficient heat transfer from the CCD to the IHS due to the V-cache chip in-between, but also because you're limited by your cooling capacity.
    My case is a 7.5L i100 Pro/Hummingbird, so I don''t even have the luxury of an AIO - 60mm low-profile is the best I could get. So I got an ID-Cooling IS55, one of the best in the business, and put on some Conductonaut liquid metal to give me the best possible results. CPU fan speed was set to max at all times, though it is damn near silent. All that for 60+ on idle and a constant 91 degrees on load with inconsistent clocks. Just turning the PC on and loading into Windows caused the CPU to exceed 80 degrees.
    It would hit 4.55GHz, but rarely as spikes and mostly hover around 4.3GHz and often as low as 3.7GHz momentarily. All core clocks in Cinebench 2024 would settle at around 4.0GHz after 10 minutes, also fixed at 91 degrees. At any rate, the fact that I could still boost in this situation meant that my cooling was just barely not enough, especially because I noticed the clocks being a little more consistent just by having the A/C running.
    So I went into the BIOS (Asus X570i) and set a basic -0.2v offset, and left the previously set performance enhancer to "level 3 (OC)" as it was. Temps on load are now on average around mid 70s, with occasional peaks at 85-ish. Idle temps now sit below 50, sometimes below 40 with the A/C running. That alone would've been a great result already, but due to the massive improvements in temperature the clocks greatly improved too. Cinebench all core load now sits at 4.3GHz constant at 86 degrees max, and when gaming it hits 4.55GHz quite often, usually 4.45GHz and rarely dropping below 4.3GHz.
    I could probably do better with some more in-depth tuning, but I don't really need it. Most of my concern was regarding the high temperatures, so any performance improvement I got out of it was a bonus. I don't even have a sufficiently fast enough GPU to hit a CPU bottleneck, even though I play at 1080p on a RX 6800, so this'll do for now.

Because the curve optimizer in bios won't have same result as the pbo optimizer which has slightly better cooler temperatures and and clock high 4450mhz! You just need to set task scheduler that the pbo tuner will set with every reboot.

    If you do like a 102-103 bclk overclock, it'll probably still work at stock voltage without breaking PCI-E or IO ports or the ram, that'd be probably a better choice than undervolting with a typical large tower cooler as these single ccd ryzen cpu's don't really pull much power therefore they're easy to cool. Also I think your cyberpunk experience is worse because of ryzen cpu's clock stretch a lot, I have a ryzen 7600, I got it overclocked at 5.45 ghz stable at stock voltage, however when I increase the clock speed to 5.5, y cruncher doesn't crash, it just prompts a lower score, the reason why is that when ryzen cpu's don't have enough voltage by like a tiny bit like probably 0.01 mv or something, it'll drop the frequency or do something to drop the benchmark score. It runs 2 hours stress test with Linpack with no memory errors, but it also drops the tflop numbers which I see in the linpack. So this cpu at this voltage is not stable at 5.5 ghz, It'll probably go away if I give it like 10-20 mv or something. So even if your Ryzen cpu doesn't crash, it can drop the clock speed down the base frequency for like 0.00001 sec quite frequently and your monitoring application may not even register it.

  • @bluetech2809

    If you're getting more or less the same performance for significantly less power then I'd call that a win, no? Also as you say, the 0.1% lows were much better in a lot of your tests, which is arguably more important than getting an extra 10-20fps (especially when you're already well over 100fps!). That translates to fewer "stutters" and thus a smoother gameplay experience overall.

      1. Manually setting DRAM voltage in bios @1.35V (like my XMP profile) and then in windows I opened Ryzen Master application, and manually put the timings of my XMP profile (you can skip this if your PC gets to Windows without crashing with your XMP/DOCP profile selected in BIOS)
      2. In Windows Ryzen Master - Increase VDDCR SOC from 1.0 to 1.1V (+0.1)
      3. In Windows Ryzen Master - Increase CLDO VDDP, CLDO VDDG CCD, CLDO VDDG IOD from 0.9V to 0.95V (+0.05)
      4. Save and then apply profile

    I like tests like this which improve gaming but I don't think you need to undervolt, especially since the cpu is great out of the box or unexperienced. If you cap frames, your cpu will work less and never get hot. Im running my 5800X3D at stock settings so it can decide itself how much power to use or not. The hottest ive seen it get is 65 degrees in games. In Cinebench it was around 77 maximum. Air cooled with Dark Rock 4

I think it was the TDC. When i tried it again with just a negative offset of -30 my benchmark scores went up and the chip stays locked at 4450mhz all core and about 10c cooler. I'm sure reducing the power limits is just another method of trying to do what the undervolt is already doing so doing both together maybe overdoing it depending on the chip/motherboard. Some people seem to get away with doing both. Another thing i thought about is maybe it's a BIOS issue? If there is a newer version of the BIOS maybe it will work better.

    Honestly, all your results are likely just a test to test variance.
    Reasons being:
    5800X3D is a locked down chip with temperature limits. (not factor in your case)
    PPT, EDC, TDC on this chip are an issue because they can't be increased, lowering them just means you're creating even tighter power limit and reducing the max performance even more.
    In your case the limits you've set are not a factor because this CPU does not even reach the limits you've set in gaming loads.
    You would need to run something like CBR23 that maxes the CPU power to see the difference.
    For your testing the only benefits there are the lower temps from CO being at -30.
    That said CO of -30 is rarely fully stable especially with default LLC settings and while you may have not encountered crashes, it may have resulted into clock stretching and thus even higher test to test variance.

I have a Ryzen 7 5800X3D and @stock frequencies with PBO enabled and Turboing over all cores enabled and this CPU physically cannot get over 111 Watts of total power consumption as a socketed CPU alone !!!! Why is there any need to lower the power consumption since this is a VERY VERY LOW POWER CONSUMPTION for a 8c/16t 2.nd fastest gaming CPU on the planet ?!?!?!?!
    The temps also physically cannot get over 80°C in my usage when I have 150+ tabs opened in my browser + playing RDR 2 + decompressing 90 GB large pack of files at the same time. Or don't go over 84°C when stressing it for hours in Prime95 or FurMarks CPU burner test.

    Why stick with a 5800X3D when you can easily sell it for $250, the board for $100 and the ram for $50. That's what you can get a 7600x/7700x/b650/32gb CL30 6000MT ram for. The value still in these old parts can still pay for much of the upgrade. I don't know why people would hold onto them when it's dirt cheap to get basically the same performance sometimes more sometimes less with the 7600x/7700x. I had a used 5800X3D for a month that I paid $263 for. It was certainly better than my 5900X which I sold for $260. Then a few weeks later I realized the 7600X on AM5 was on average 3% faster. Well I sold the 5800X3D & Asus TUF X570 for $380 and the 64gb ram for about $100. I went to a new 7600X for $200, open box X670 Aorus for $130, $110 new Trident CL30 6000MT. Then that trickled down to every AM4 system inside the house. When below retail AM5 deals, boards and ram appear I would part out AM4 parts for usually not much more than what I sold the parts for. I have two 5800X, 1 X570S Tomahawk and 96gb of DDR4 left to sell off. AM4 selling is slowing down, 3 months ago this stuff sold fast. Now it's much slower.
