im tending towards the mount, i could do 8000 stable before with this exact cpu :) i only switched out case, fans, cpu aio and updated bios. no changes to the actual hardware. so with bios out of the way that leaves the mount, lets see how it goes.

did you go all out on the vcore of did u do some curve flattening. im wondering if most user reports over on overclock.net with the xoc being super inefficient is cuz they just flash and go full throttle and run into thermal limits right away. i was thinking to fully let the PL loose at 1200W but then manually flatten the V/F curve via AB and check mutliple vcore limits. im sure one can get better results that way. @Mr. Fox any new insights from ur side with XOC vs. Matrix vbios? this. even better if ure still able to snag the older TX-1600 version with 2x 8 pin connectors on the psu end for the two included 12VHPWR cables 😁 although its been going in and out of stock with prices nowhere near its original MSRP. seems to be in high demand, i wonder why.... 😋 @Mr. Fox so i updated my mobo bios to the latest version, this time once through ezflash and second time via bios flashback just to be on the safe side. still cant reach 8000 stable but looks like at 7600 i can go tighter on the timings than before. at this point im suspecting im having a suboptimal mount of the cpu, i remembered that i had some issues installing the arctic freezer III pro onto the cpu, since it only sports two(!) screw points instead of the previous LF II with four. since ill be opening up the case anyways once the wireview pro II gets here, i might as well do another cpu mount and also delid it while at it. maybe using the TG High perf. IHS might help with the mounting, since it sports a larger area and lower overall z height. so much tuning to do, so little time! but still tons fun 😁 and heck yeah, nvidia and amd take ur sweet time with new gpu gens, let the 5090 reign supreme for another 2-3 years, we dont mind 😄

niiice what card is that? 32GB HBM2 sounds sweeeeeet, wanna take off the cooler and show us some silicon pr0n? 😄

well dayum, looks like ill have two vbioses to play around with once my wireview pro II comes in 😄 so if i understand it correctly, the asus XOC vbios forces 1.15V at all times on the core? is there an option to lower it and have some control? otherwise id have to try and reign in the temps via power limiting but id prefer voltage tbh. in any case, nice to FINALLY have more options 🙂 is it just me or does it somehow feel like running the 5090 at 1kW+ is more dangerous than the 4090 at 1000W? with my previous 4090 suprim i just ran the 1000W XOC vbios as a daily without issues. and that was without any monitoring tool like the wireview i will have available now. sweet, ill save it up for future reference 🙂 want to get my DDR5 issues sorted first before i start properly tuning the CPU. but now with the Matrix and XOC vBioses out ill have to go back to GPU tuning too 😄 so much to do, so little time, argh! enjoy the bit of freetime u have now between jobs, im sure ull be in over ur head once the new position starts 🙂 keeping my fingers crossed for you on that btw!

the timing of your post is hilarious, ive been going nuts these past weeks since i cant get my kit stable at 8000 anymore, had to back down to 7600 ugh. the same exact setup hardware wise, only two differences being the new case / cpu cooling / fans and ofc i updated to the newest bios. imagine that i currently cannot even get 6000 stable anymore in synchronous mode, like wtf.... and even at 7600 with tightened timings the bandwidth and latency results are absolute garbage. theres definitely something funky going on here, and as of yet i have no idea what it is....

from what ive seen so far im expecting it to work on the Suprim, albeit likely not with all 3 fans functional (ive tried the Astral vBios before and it was only able to address two of the three fans), so id have to check and see if cooling would still be up to snuff for the increased wattage. @electrosoftwhats that "XoC debacle" ure mentioning? just the fact that it still aint available or was there smth else?

daaaamn nice! thx for the headsup and tag bud, much appreciated 🙂 now i know what ill do once i get my hands on the wireview pro II 😄

nifty, but my main gripe is still that in many instances i need to manually come up with new profiles whenever i update the bios version. cmon now, how hard can it be to make bios profiles compatible with all new bios versions?!

so far no too shabby tbh with regards to 5090 availability and pricing. total of 41 models on offer, out of which 33 are in stock and ready for shipping. another 3 skus need a bit of a wait time and only 5 are currently out of stock. currently cheapest model, the Inno3D X3 goes for 2399€, thus far only a "medium" increase over its all time low price point at 2076€. the Suprim SOC had its lowest price back in Sep until mid-Oct at 2640€, has since slightly increased to 2840€. The Astrai had a low at 2740€ back in Aug and has now increased to 2880€, so its been more stable than other models, price curve still pretty flat but at a much higher price level than other models. the upcreep is slight thus far but one can discern a slow upward trend. still time to snatch a model at a comparably decent price tho. from what i can discern, the cheapest ever available 5090 model was the Ventus back in June at 1999€.

im in the same position here, will likely need to replace my 90° Seasonic cable, probably going back to the straight Seasonic one that came stock with my 1600W PSU, thus switching back from current top routing to bottom. should be fine 🙂

pre-ordered one for some additional peace of mind. expected shipping in mid-Dec 🙂

yep thats the shortcoming on those cables, they are incredibly hard to find LOL what i did was to take the serial number of the cable i wanted and just do a google wide search for it. maybe u can find some US or Europe based shops that offer them this way 🙂

they offer both. they got different kinds of 12V-2x6 ccables, i got the 2x8-pin to 12V-2x6 connector sku.

you could try and give the Seasonic cable a shot that ive been using. Not sure if the pinout would be compatible, but Seasonic is definitely up there with Noctua and others in terms of reliability and product quality. Havent heard of any cases of these cables melting (yet, at least 😛 ) https://seasonic.com/12v-2x6-cable-90-degrees/

awesome i will look into this some more before ordering 🙂 thanks for the input!
