how do you manage to get 5.2 all core with strix? Your ITX case can handle the heat?

Running full custom loop with dual 280 GTS rad :) Intel isn't hard to cool unlike AMD lol. Tested and seems my max input is around 1.52v, which is about 330w. Only then do the cores start going up to the 90s. If not they're in the low 80s max if at 1.4v, low 70s if at 1.3v.

Intel OC really more rewarding
Amd by time hits >80c will start auto losing clocks speed and performance :o

Idk I'm still with windows 10 haha. Didn't want to complicate things with w11 yet.
May I know if you see any obvious improvement in gaming compare previous already fast amd zen 3 cpu?

Haven't tested games yet. Settling my fun having OC first heh.

Got it up to sub 60ns on ddr5.

Your limitation for rams would be temps.
Watercool them and you can drive down timings tighter and push frequencies maybe abit higher. Probably more if it's Hynix. Notice below screenshot in Gear 2 runs at 1T.

But honestly I don't see many people going this far. PMIC runs very hot that's the problem once you cross 1.4V VDIMM. And past 1.6V, it trips the FIVR circuit on the CPU apparently creates all sorts of instabilities. So window to push is 1.1V-1.59V VDIMM.

hahaha make sense. i only have 1 x 280 GTS/XR5 rad to cool my both CPU and GPU

Wah. Not hot?

I settling my cpu oc slowly. Going to try for a good daily tbh now.

5.5ghz- 2 core load - 1.5v
5.3ghz - 4 core load - 1.4v
5.2ghz - 8 core load - 1.3v

Ram hopefully can get to stable 6400c34 at 1.42v or something.

Try 1T if you can but depends on your RAMs and your CPU IMC.
