Yes. Sorry - I have one System with the i3 8350K and one with the 9900K. I use best case scenario on both.
I understand that it is based on the CPUs quality. Not the quality of the cooler (I use a 240mm AIO) . Am I right?
So, a best case scenario SVID leads to lower temps.
The same with the:
IA DC Loadline : 0.01
IA AC Loadline : 0.01
These are Voltages. =0.01 V will be added to the manual Voltage you set to your CPU Core. In order to stay as close to what I typed in there (1.3V) I use these settings.
I can only achieve stable 4.8 in Mac OS, Prime 95 though. In Windows it can to 5.0 with OCCT & OCCT Linpack & Cinebench.
Yes, it seems to be completely broken! Dangerous stuff... 1.52 is not just a bit high, it is the maximum that is possible without removing the overvoltage jumper on the mainboard.
Prime95 26.6 doesn't use AVX (you use this version)
All newer versions do. (29.4b7)
I can not confirm this. HWmonitor shows me the same frequencies as windows. I believe the AVX Offset works in Mac OS now.. Can someone please confirm this with a non-AVX (Prime95 26.6 attached) and one AVX workload. (Prime95 29.4b7 attached)
Okay, golden, thanks! I did not use these settings so far. Will add them for longer turbo boosts if cooling suffices.
why?
Through SVID, the CPU can dynamically control the output voltage (you disabled this anyway), slew rates, power states, as well as monitor the device for telemetry purposes. (we want this, don't we?)
"For power saving with an overclock, enable it. This will let c states lower the multi and VID to lower your clocks when not under full load."
"SVID is a 3-wire digital communication protocol between the CPU and the PWM, it allows for the CPU to change its VID on the fly to fit the frequency selected. That is why you can increase the base frequency +/- 6-7 multipliers and the CPU remains stable, because SVID is increasing the VID without you knowing. Now this doesn’t stop unless you manually set the voltage (we did), so when users use SVID offset, they should be aware that their stock VID really isn’t constant. SVID potentially can increase voltage to 1.52v on its own, but that has never really been seen. The CPUs have this 1.52v max for SVID."
Aaaah- maybe thats why I saw 1.52V using adaptive mode ???
Why? If your frequency throttles in idle, your Cache will be way higher than the CPU frequency. I thought this yould lead to instability? Or is it only a problem when the CPU Frequency is way higher than cache? We'll need a CPU wizard to help me out with his wisdom for a sec...
