btw this comment is now making me consider buying like 5-6 kits and just keeping the best one 😄 RAM is currently quite cheap, actually.

whats your ETA?

my 4090 feels offended by this....but is also quite impressed 😛 dude, i JUST finished my breakfast here! was planning to keep it down, mkay? 😄 oh cmoooon..... cant we just get ONE part theese days without the risk of it crapping out on us inside the first week/month/year? seriously...

yep thats what im counting on, it being the sticks. altho i was able to stabilize them at 7600 on my 7950X. i guess theres always an interdependency factor with the CPU IMC. in any case, for now im just gonna dial in the best i can with the current sticks and then focus on the 5090 first 🙂once i got some budget back from selling off parts ill reconsider getting new RAM. so much tuning / tinkering to do, so little time! 😄

shoot, unfortunately nothing new that i hadnt considered before setting-wise. couldnt stabilize 7600 for the life of me, so i abandoned that route for now and focussing on 1:1 settings. able to boot 6600 but not stable, so currently getting a 6400 baseline. if this works out, itll give me more of a perf. boost than going 2:1 at sub-7600. im also considering getting a new RAM kit to check my options there. either a regular G.Skill 8400 kit or G.Skill CKD 9600 (although the latter aint supported in CKD mode on AM5 and its double the price of the former 😄), maybe that could give me more of an edge with this CPU/board combo. you and me both @Suprim loving 😄 ill be starting back at work after my parental leave this tuesday and both my lady and lil princess are planning a trip to the grandparents for two weeks at the end of april / beg of may. means ill be home alone for TWO FULL WEEKS. as long as the Suprim reaches me in time before that, its gonna be gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood 😎 unhindered tuning / tinkering time for daddy 😄 as for the X870E Extreme....soooo Wifi7 and a new colorful display? welp im planning to upgrade my wifi module soon anyways, so COLOR me unimpressed (pun intended 😛) still gonna check out the reviews and detailed spec list once available. in any case, STILL gonna call you Hero folks PEASANTS mwahaha 😄

thx bud much appreciated! currently trying to get a stable baseline at 7600, from which i can extend my tuning again.

humtz no luck getting 7800/8000/8100 stable, at least not with voltages im comfortable with. bro @Mr. Fox what kinda voltages are u running? heres my list of max values, which i wouldnt like exceeding for 24/7: SOC 1.30V (bios limit) VDDIO 1.58 Misc 1.575 VDDP 1.199 RAM VDD/VDDQ 1.69 VDDG IOD/CCD both at 1.10 (FCLK stabilization, unrelated to RAM)

bro papu is getting familiar with his new toy 😁

yes ofc even with the right price itll leave a very bad aftertaste in your mouth..... urgh on a brighter note, can confirm that FCLK 2200 is stable on my sample 🙂

well technically that would qualify as a new tier between 5090 and 5080, say a 5080 Ti SuperDuper ROPless edition?! 😂 if its pricing is settled somewhere between 999 and 1999 then sure why not. in the end its all about pricing. so finally getting around to some tuning time with my 9950X3D. able to boot FCLK 2200, thats a good sign. havent checked for full stability yet, want to get a feel of the landscape firsr. at first i could only get 2133 to boot but was able to massage 2200 into booting via upping PLL and VDDG voltages. actually first time that upping VDDG did anything for me 😄 now doing quick n dirty boot tests for max DDR5 frequencies. see if im rather limited by the board, the sticks or the CPU IMC. lets see if i can finally get 8000 stable or maybe even 8200 to boot...fingers crossed boiz! oh and a quick update on my suprim 5090 order: shop got back to me and confirmed that next shipment from MSI should arrive at their shop beginning of april 🙂 that i can live with if its just +/- a week or so. just wanted to make sure its not several months or anything crazy like that.... edit: cool, just booted DDR5-8100 🙂 looks like they now have finer grained frequency steps starting with 8000. 8200 still no go, unfortunately. now lets see how far i can push FCLK 😄 edit 2: nope, topping out at 2200. now lets test for stability....

good input from bro @triturbo there might be smth going on with your power draw.

you can do that but i suspect that might either do nothing or brick the card @vbios editing 😄 whats the total system wattage ure pulling during load?

afaik the 50 series cards with LM preapplied actually source their stuff from Thermal Grizzly. Roman did an LM analysis and found that its basically identical to Conductonaut Extreme 😄 (im hoping they did indeed source the LM from TG and didnt just reproduce it by themselves 😛 wouldnt put it past them....) anyways, point being that u likely wont see much difference with a reapplication 🙂 ha, almost spot on same pricing after taxes as in my case 😄 starting to see a pattern here with @Papusan me and you 😛

welp furmark isnt reliable anymore since nvidia built in artificial downclocks whenever its run. but i get your point, seems like ure good to go. hm this is weird, difficult to pinpoint if this is hardware / firmware or software related.

do the usual checklist: - gpu temps all good? optimal coverage of SMDs with thermal pads, making goo contact? - try various different benchmarks / games to be sure that the gpu is being fully utilized. also make sure ure not hitting a CPU bottleneck, that might keep the GPU below its peak performance
