I'm not big on hardware YouTubers personally because they go in and out of style. Like back in the day we had Linus, then Steve from Gamer's Nexus got huge, jayztwocents was around too, der8auer was popular for a while and now it's this Buildzoid guy (His voice is obnoxious to me.) I'll try to listen as its only 20 minutes long but his voice is very annoying. I used to use YouTube a lot and follow all those guys as well as others related to retro gaming, but in the last 3 years since we moved, YouTube has gotten terrible with two 5 second ads you can skip before each video or straight up unskippable 15 second ads. I generally cast videos to a Roku or Chromecast and that's how I used to use YouTube so I have to deal with the ads, but now it just sucks so much I don't even bother. Sorry for the rant.

Can you please give a timestamp for the parts about PBO and X3D?

Any answer about T-Topology vs Daisy Chain that I asked about?
-
If you want help with a logo and provide me some AI generated anime girls, I can put something together for you if you want.

I love my board except for the boosting issue, as well as being unable to do 8000MHz stable on RAM (Which could actually be the IMC or the DIMMs and not the board). I've bought nothing but ROG/Asus boards since 2012 or so. The Crosshair VIII Hero was pretty rocky on launch in 2019 when I first got it and was an early adopter. Boot times of a minute and a half. No color coding for voltages depending on severity (yellow for slight voltage increase, purple for highish voltage, and red for LN2 level voltages). Eventually they implemented that and fixed the boot time. I agree their support is terrible and they force you to use the MyAsus app now, Armoury Crate sucks and is necessary for Aura Creator (RGB software) to work, and so forth. I actually contacted them through the MyAsus app about half a year ago and explained the 2nd CCD on my board won't go over 5200MHz in any benchmark where previously I had it at 5650, they basically had me downgrade my bios from a beta one to the next oldest version, that didn't fix it. Then they had me clear CMOS and that didn't work either and they told me they didn't know what to do to fix it. Problem with getting a new mobo is I'll take a loss selling the old one and my fiance won't agree to it atm as she'd be the one putting it in. I have asked for too much pc stuff recently already, and I have multiple severe pain conditions that prevent me from putting it together myself meaning she would have to do it and there's no way she'd be willing atm. She just wants me to wait for a bios update to fix it.

Hey @J7SC_Orion Is the Gigabyte board you have T-Topology or Daisy Chain? What specific board is it? I highly consider replacing my motherboard because of the 2nd CCD not boosting issue. I think it may also be Daisy Chain Topology, I know for a fact that the Crosshair VIII Hero in my partners rig is, so I'm guessing that's what my Strix X670E-E is. I wonder if T-Topology works better for these 2x24 SR DIMMs.

Also found out that with the exact same settings, I'm getting less performance from my RAM and higher latency. Compared to that, today I was only getting 96GB/sec Read and Write and the latency was 63.7.

So, I did try to overclock my RAM on AGESA 1.0.0.8 again. Was trying for 8000MHz again with looser timings and more voltage. I even tried raising CAS from 36 to 38 and then 40, and memtestCL would still throw errors right away. I was using these suggested settings from kaliz: I left tRDRDSD, tRDRDDD, etc alone and at the values shown by ZenTimings, as opposed to setting those all to 1. Otherwise, I used the looser suggested timings. I also left tRFCs higher instead of kaliz suggestion of 600 for each. I don't know if it's the kit, my IMC, my CPU or what but I cannot get stable at 8000MHz. Just figured I'd share. Don't get your hopes up too high for when 1.0.0.8 drops for your guys' Gigabyte boards.

@ENTERPRISE Any possible way we could get alternative desk mats and have the logo a little smaller in the top left or top right of them, so the logos are visible with a keyboard (104 key) in the middle of the mat? Also, do the current ones have a rubber non slip backing?

How big are these?

The black one looks fantastic and it looks to me like you used the version I made with a red to dark red gradient on the icons. The white one is using the flat dark red icons. Nice job. They both look great, E. I would get one but unfortunately my keyboard would probably cover the logo. I wonder if it might be a good idea to move the logo to the top left or something. Personally I have an RGB desk mat but I may pick up the black one anyway.

Agreed.

Sorry for double posting. I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else in this thread, or on the site. Thought I'd clue you guys in to something you may not be familiar with. 1usmus has made two different Power Plans for use with Ryzen that may offer higher boost clocks and performance compared to the stock Windows high performance or Ultimate performance power plans and this is true for older platforms as well (which he made them for). GitHub - neon-dev/Ryzen-Optimized-Power-Plan: Further optimized version of 1usmus' great power plan (https://www.techpowerup.com/review/1usmus-power-plan-for-amd-ryzen-new-developments/) GITHUB.COM Further optimized version of 1usmus' great power plan... That is an older one. The most current version, you can grab here from TPU as well as read his documentation: 1usmus Power Plan for AMD Ryzen - New Developments WWW.TECHPOWERUP.COM Two weeks ago, we released the 1usmus Power Plan for AMD Ryzen processors, which received a ton of attention. Both Microsoft and... When my 7900X3D was actually boosting on the second CCD and not being limited to 5100mhz under any actual workload (waiting for bios fix Asus!!!) , I noticed significantly higher boost speeds using the "Ryzen Optimized Balanced" power plan, which I think is the first link. I was only able to hit around 5300-5400 boosts in 3dmark11 and 3dm Vantage with the Windows high performance power plan and +200 PBO, with the Optimized Balanced power plan I was seeing 5650 on two cores in the 2nd CCD and 5525MHz on the rest. It bounced around a bit but never really went lower than 5400MHz. Anyway, just thought I'd share. Hope this helps.

FYI hurricane, the X3D chips are voltage and ratio locked. We literally have no voltage or cpu core ratio options in our bios. Only way to control it/overclock is through PBO or CO curves.

Well, hope you don't end up losing money if its an auction...
-
What did it cost to build?
-
Right on. Hope it sells. Lots of bids or no?
-
So sorry this happened Ultra. Maybe you need to do it on eBay, or perhaps use social media (FB) to set up a local avenue for doung more volume.

Start with an all-core CO of -20. That's what's recommended anyway. Hydra is a little overwhelming and confusing at first, so here's how to use it: open it, you will probably see the first tab with a ton of sliders for CO. Go to the "diagnosis" tab and then click "diagnosis" or "run diagnosis" in the bottom right. Then wait for like an hour probably more because you have a 16 core chip. It will test with Cinebench single core CO offsets in the background, I think it also uses Prime95. When it's done it'll have found your CO values and they should all have been automatically added to the first tab, and you can apply them. That's how it was when I used it anyway but as I said, it didn't work for me using the values it found. I'd bsod pretty quickly after applying the CO values.

E, I would suggest just running 6600MHz/2100fclk as you said it was stable. Higher fclk will be nice and fclk DOES affect memory bandwidth speed (when I tested 2033 vs 2100 I got 3GB/sec faster read bandwidth at 2100) but honestly being at 6600 will make more of a difference in bandwidth than raising your fclk will. If you found settings that are stable and pass everything at 6600, I would kindly suggest sticking with those and printing off your ZenTimings blown up big to use to reenter your settings on BIOS update (I lose my saved profiles every time I update to a new bios and use the printoff to reenter all the settings, dunno if your AORUS board keeps them or not or if you can save bios settings to a profile) The push for more is nice and you've earned my respect, but I learned the hard way with my B-Die DDR5 that it just would not do anything over 6200MHz stably. My current kit will not do anything over 7600MHz stably but I can bench at 8000MHz, wouldn't want to run it anyway because of risk of data/file corruption. So if you've found a sweet spot with 6600MHz I would stick with that.
