  1. For that config I'd get 1600W LEADEX Titan and be done worrying. Edit: nvm they out of stock Try: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/v7PzK8/evga-supernova-1600-t2-1600-w-80-titanium-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-220-t2-1600-x1 or https://pcpartpicker.com/product/VC6p99/super-flower-leadex-platinum-1600-w-80-platinum-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-sf-1600f14hp If folding 24/7 then Titanium is going to be worth it though.
  2. The hardest part for PBO tuning is idle and light load testing. There's plenty of heavy load stress testing available but that doesn't help if your rig is crashing at idle The curve optimizer is the right idea but it's just not anywhere near capable of certifying that you won't crash under light loads or idle. I miss the old Phenom MSR Tweaker. It was extremely easy to test all P-states with that software.
  3. Those are fun and look great under a proper lamp shade. Good to see you Minotaur and been missing you folding with us.
  4. That is great news. So that means that the rest of the EVGA prizes should be hitting everyone else on that side of the ocean very soon.
  5. Yeah not every processor will be able to do PBO +200 or any at all if there isn't headroom, so no worries if that doesn't work. Some will have trouble with even 101-102 base clock. Yeah if it's 100 that's the one you want. Keep in mind it will throw all of your voltages on your notepad out the window as it shifts everything. I had a notebook full too lol.
  6. Your mileage will vary on the benefits of raising base clock a few percent, so you'll have to just test it and see. I noticed on the hexacore ryzens that it helped as they were easier to stay in the power envelope. You should find it on the advanced OC menu somewhere. It would normally be auto or 100MHz. It may be near a setting called spread spectrum. The advantage of using a base clock increase is of course to force boost clocks (and all power state clocks) a little higher. It affects all clocks though, so back off your memory and fabric multipliers accordingly for stability. On AM4 it also affects PCI bus, so generally you have to stay at 104 or below or drop back a gen for stability. It's something worth experimenting with to wring our the last few MHz. Example: 104 bclk +200MHz PBO on Ryzen 5 5500: https://valid.x86.fr/wtl521
  7. Try a sprinkle of base clock, like 103-104
  8. Julio made my day saving me like $150

  10. Understood. This is why we cut back to 48-hour challenges until December. That last 96-hour was brutal
  11. Careful. There might be a legitimate duty fee. If there is, then pay it and send me an image of the receipt and a picture of your kb and I'll get you reimbursed.
  12. You're going to need those for building a separate folding rig with that bench I sent you. Since it is really a good idea not to fold 24/7 on your prized card, maybe one of those MI25's we talked about. I see them going on ebay for $65-70. Might be fun.
  13. I'm curious about these mouse cases that they included. Do they normally ship with these or were they extra goodies that EVGA threw in? Do tell us about it. Are they nice?
  14. That's our extreme league that we have which is separate from our monthly foldathons. In the ETF league you fold 24/7 on one piece of hardware and you are on a team of 3 people. ETF has a handicap points rule so that theoretically all cards are equal and the only way to really gain advantage is overclocking. You can take a look at our stats for that here: Extreme Team Folding TEAMCOMP.AXIHUB.CA If that seems like something fun, there's some empty slots on some teams or you could even captain your own team.
  15. I have a few of these prism coolers. They are pretty good and they do look cool when you play around with the Cooler Master software. Make sure you pack those heat pipe gaps on the base with extra thermal compound. Also keep in mind that there is a switch between quiet and performance modes. It's better to use the performance mode and fine tune the fan curve in the BIOS. Try ECO mode in the PBO settings. It may run much cooler without losing much performance at all.
  16. I think I originally bought the bronze subscription just for the dark theme. It was cheap and I was happy to help the site out. Keep in mind that this site is still new and things are evolving fast.
  17. There just isn't a huge knowledge base for those 3D AM5 CPUs yet. I really have no idea. Michele has the 5800X3D but that thing is locked down hard on her board.
  18. Some welcome news is that we are now a top 50 team. Folding Teams Overall Rankings - Folding@Home Stats - EXTREME Overclocking FOLDING.EXTREMEOVERCLOCKING.COM F@H stats folding teams overall rankings. Help Folding at Home fight Coronavirus, further medical research... Looks like we took 49th over the last 24 hours.
  19. I haven't played around with AM5. The help you seek is probably @ir_cow as he has tested quite a bit of AM5
