What's the point of this shit? Why did AMD have to make this AI overclocker that keeps running temps hot? I have fancontroller (from razer) to control case fan speeds from software, and nothing I do seem to be able to tame the temps, putting the case fans to 80% or 20% bears very little difference. The paste has been changed like 2 or 3 times already in past few months, so I can't imagine it's the paste either. I can't imagine what could be going wrong for this thing to run so hot. Disabling the turbo decreased the CPU temp instantly from 73 to 53. And yes I'm undervolting this with that PBO2 tuner or some software, but it's still not enough to help tame these temps.

they run at the temperature they should. don't worry about your old preconceptions of what temps cpus should run at. these are made to run at these temps. Like you I was surprised when I switched to the 5800x but thats just how they are meant to work

This isn't hot at all. Modern computer hardware only starts thermally throttling around 95 degrees celsius, and shuts down around 100-105 to avoid reaching the temperatures where it can take real damage.

CPU temperature being around the 70s and 80s is no cause for alarm, panicking about that is not unlike 18th century retards panicking about the idea of being a car that moves faster than 50 miles an hour.

if you think 73-85 is too hot you're fucking retarded. they're designed to operate at these temps and dont start throttling themselves until they hit the mid 90s. Theres nothing wrong with these temps and if anything it sounds like you're using a shitty cooling solution as well.

These two issues are unrelated. Your CPU thermally throttling (it's not throttling by the way, 73 celsius is literally nothing to worry about) cannot make your GPU malfunction.

After looking at other anons tests. You should check to see if the cooler is properly mounted and the heatsink is not clogged with dust, after that check to see if the thermal paste is actually spread out properly.

I think it's possible my GPU (asus 7900xtx) is too big for the "small" define 6 case, since it's regular model define 6 and not the XL model, and it's possible that this large GPU is taking up air volume from the case (since running case coolers at high RPM doesn't seem to do any difference)

Most fan software these days target a pretty high running temperature under load (like 80 - 95) to minimise fan speed (thus noise). The chip manufacturers say that's basically fine.

You can ofc always tweak it yourself to get better temps. But most people tend to just leave it on default.

Temperature is a measurement of thermal energy in a given environment. Its all relative to what is considered normal as to whether something is 'hot' or 'cold'. Temperature includes heat. You wont be getting anymore (You)s from me, so its better to find greener pastures.

It's because of the much higher energy density of these modern chips. A Vermeer CCX is the size of a pinkie nail and receives ~100W of electrical energy which all gets converted to thermal energy. But TSMC and AMD say that it's totally fine running this silicon at 90C and you don't need to worry about it.
The last line limit for PBO2 is simply the temperature limit, if you don't want your chip reaching 90C then you need to set a lower limit. The algorithm will always try to quench out the tiniest bit of clock rates until it hits the thermal limit.
Personally, I set my 5800X to 100W/100A/75C with a CO of -15 and it werks just as well. The only time it hits these limits is when I compile shit and then it still runs at 4.6GHz.

That can't be stable. I started mine at -17 and now I'm at -12 because I keep finding workloads where the CPU fails and resets the system. Been at -12 for months now so I guess I've finally hit the perfect value.

Bro still living in 2003 thinking his CPU will die if it gets too hot.
These things are smarter than you; they know to throttle when they need to. If it doesn't throttle, temps are good.

bearing in mind that the open side of the fan is where the air comes in, these fans are mounted entirely incorrectly. they are facing the wrong direction and mounted in the wrong place as well. there are even arrows on the noctua fans that tell you exactly which direction the airflow moves.

>>714304702
Turbo mode is laptop cpus is what allow them to go up to their their max clock. Disabling it will force the processing to the base clock of usually 2.7-2.9Ghz. It's insanely good for keeping the temps low in gaming but woth some performance loss depending on games.

I feel like I'm not getting any of the benefits from those case coolers though, for some reason. I can notice increasing CPU cooler speed or GPU cooler speed that my temp will drop, but making changes to case cooler speeds make almost no difference at all. My define case originally came with 3x fractal 1000rpm fans (2 intake fans front, 1 exhaust fan behind), and adding a single noctua 1500 on top of the case seemed to have done more to my coolnig that changing front fans to 2000 + 1500 or changing exhaust from 1000 to 3000. I haven't had chance to test with 2 top intakes that are both adjustable, but I noticed if I had 1 top intake that was spinning fixed 1000 or 1500 (depending if I put some non-adjustable noctua 1500 or non-adjustable fractal taht came with case), the temps went "all off", meaning having a top rear fan (an intake fan very close to the CPU/rear exhaust fan) was not good, so that one was disabled/removed very quickly in my testings. But basically, only the top-front fan seemed to have made any difference for me, having a cool 2000rpm front top + 1500 front bot didn't seem to help, neither the 3000ppc exhaust fan.

I think I would try that, but removing the GPU on this mobo is risky. The release pin is very bad spot, and also I think you had to remove the CPU cooler to be able to remove the GPU. Basically it's ton of hassle. I'm thinking of driving my PC to some store and telling them to switch it into different a bigger case with more volume for air (will have to look up which case to go for). I honestly can't imagine it's anything other than case issue (which is a big issue though lol)

In practice, a modern AIO is going to last you 5-6 years. You shouldn't be using a tower cooler much longer than that anyway as it has the same problems (leak of internal liquid), and a wraith-style cooler just isn't sufficient for anything that's above 65W.

But if you're deadset on a no AIO - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/thermaltake-lcgs-view-i1497xs-350-gaming-desktop-intel-core-i7-14700f-32gb-memory-amd-radeon-rx-9070-xt-1tb-ssdnvme-m-2-snow/6625310.p?skuId=6625310

Thermaltake makes one with a standard tower cooler.

Smaller components means more components can fit in a die of the same size which will draw more power and generate more heat in order to work. And heat dissipation tech is barely keeping up.

I use the top 3 fans strictly to remove the heat that the GPU discharges upwards, I am also aware that the CPU coolers will be taking in GPU discharge air so I expect hotter CPU temps. Its not a problem for me since my GPU is the bottleneck for my gaming. I have tried with less fans up top, but it would create a heat pocket in the top right of the case and so I wanted that to be removed. Am I incorrect in this regard if GPU temps take priority?

re the CO shit: if you get WHEA/MCE errors or even outright crashes with just -15 then set "typical idle current" somewhere in EFI.
To run -30 you'll have to disable deep idle (C6 and I think C5 too). The crashes with -30 happen when it goes from deep idle to something like C1 or C0 immediately and this causes a voltage droop.

I had to limit my 7600 to the base 2300MHz speed because it kept trying to boost to 2600MHz for no fucking benefit in Expedition 33. I get practically the same performance/frame drops but at like 15C lower hotspot temps due to 50-60W less power usage. VRAM stays below 80C too due to the heat plate being able to soak up a bit more.
These small chips simply don't have enough cores to bounce around work while boosting, there's no chance for hotspot temps to drop in time for when boosting could actually do anything meaningful.

The name of the game when it comes to cooling a sealed box down that generates heat internally is air changes a hour. It does not matter the size of the box, what matter is how fast can you replace the air inside with cooler air. However, if the fans run into too much resistance due to, too small of an opening then getting a bigger space would help.

>re the CO shit: if you get WHEA/MCE errors or even outright crashes with just -15 then set "typical idle current" somewhere in EFI.
oh, so that's why i never had any idle crashes
yeah this is good advice

very nice. loveas many fast USBs as possible. it'd be nice to have another usb-0c especially if it were 20Gbps (I'm assuming the oone you have is 10 as is mine). Also you have a fan and a 2 digit led on there so i can tell this was a serious/expensive motherboard. good job anon

Technically a bigger case would help regardless since there is more air volume in said space to suck up the heat. But it would be a minor impact with how much heat GPU dump out underload. A cramped case however might not allow the air to travel where it needs to go without creating a bunch of eddies which reduce performance and higher static pressure, meaning more resistance against the fans trying to push air in. Really depends on having good airflow channels, so if your set up does not really even have enough room to get your fingers to the motherboard. It could very well be a case issue. Make sure your fans are configured correctly and are facing the intended directions.

I got the idea for adding top front fan (intake) from watching some gamersnexus video where they tested some weird case, and they added a top front intake for some good results. seeing as I went from 1000rpm to 3000rpm with my exhaust fan, and there's almost no difference in temps whatever speed the exhaust is, having more exhaust doesn't seem to help me (I actually don't know what would at this point)

It's only going to get worse. We've reached the cap on processor speeds with our current technology. We can only add more and more cores at this point to do more calculations in parallel giving the illusion of a speed increase, and that is exponentially increasing the amount of heat chips give off.

To add to this, the insane "stock" temperatures are because we're not getting faster instructions per cycle chips anymore, so to compensate these companies are basically overclocking their products from the factory. If you peel back the frequencies to say 99% max, it suddenly drops temperatures (and more importantly voltage) substantially. My 9950x3D can do 4.5Ghz all day with a peak temp of like 42C.

modern mobos are cooking the cpus. default bios values used to be conservative, but today its more like full burn away. you can often undervolt by 30-40%, massively reducing tamps and without any performance loss
there was bit of affair when few literally blew up, but it didnt generate enough ruckus

>Personally, I set my 5800X to 100W/100A/75C with a CO of -15 and it werks just as well. The only time it hits these limits is when I compile shit and then it still runs at 4.6GHz.
I'm not familiar with touching this stuff. I've only set temp limit (from bios) and run the negative offset to apply downvolt value for PBO. Are there risks with reducing PPT, TDC or EDC ? I think I'm not shy about shedding some of the performance off (by manipulating the AMD algoritm so it's less aggressive), if it means I can run CPU cooler.

Nope, I'm just stating the facts and not spewing this cope that amd/nvidia do. Efficiency used to be something to sought after, AMD used to get flak when their hardware ran poorer efficiency than Nvidia. We can't pretend it's not something worth seeking just because we've now hit a wall and keep pour more and more wattage to try raise benchmark numbers. Don't let corpos change your thinking like that, efficiency is everything.

Its not really an issue for me 95% of the time for most games. Its quite noticeable when I play some VR games like eaWRC 2024. Only other title I have had stuttering issues with not in VR is the recent oblivion remaster. Essentially any game with shitty CPU optimization. Luckily most games today are very GPU unoptimized.
