I can usually do it at factory voltage if the watercooler is in top shape.open wrote:Chief that's a pretty nice overclock on that processor isn't it? What voltage are you running to achieve that?
Honestly I´m not that sure that AMD Zen 2 can beat Intel offerings. I mean, price vs performance wise and multi threaded apps, for sure, it will beat them! But for apps/games that like higher clocks, I doubt it.open wrote:Very nice. I can do 5 ghz and 4.6 cache at 1.36v with -2 but I usually run 4.8 at 1.275v 4.5 cache -2. Its pretty average for a 9700k. I just always wanted to try a big air cooler and I got my wish the thing barely fits.
Later this year will be interesting for cpus with zen maybe catching up on single thread. But zen3 and beyond looks crazy with the chiplet stacking. Not sure what intel is cooking up but they cannot be counted out yet. I think we have a good next 2-3 years for cpu buyers.
If it can run 4.7 on their Air Stock it might do 5GHzNotty_PT wrote:If you noticed they used comparasions with intel CPUs on every possible benchmark, from cinebench to rendering etc, but in gaming comparasions they only used their previous Zen 2 2700xThat shows me that they know they still can´t beat Intel in games, because isn´t all about IPC. Intel reaches crazy high clocks and doesn´t suffer from CCX latencies like AMD plus game devs optimize their engines for Intel a lot of times, not so much for AMD.
But let´s wait and see. Those turbo boosts are all 1 core only anyway, not every core.
