*Official Benchmark Thread* - Post it here or it didn't happen :D

[Mr. Fox]

OK, I got it to boot and validate 9200 in Gear 4 without overclocking the CPU, NGU and Ring, so I will see what happens if I start tweaking those. Will first see if it will boot in Gear 2. If not, then maybe no point in experimenting further except for memory frequency submission on HWBOT.

Edit: Nope on G2 above 8800. Back to G2 at 8800 for now.

 

These sticks are not on water yet, so I can't run this too long due to thermals. It doesn't take long for the sticks to hit 50+ °C running Karhu on air. (About 3 minutes.)

No boot gear 2 9200.

I think I'm pretty similar. I'll have to check when I'm home again. I still run 8667 CL38 on my 270K.

I think this is going to be good enough for now.

Wow, nice result! That seems to be a very cherry 270K+ LOL. 

 

I might need to borrow your .cmo file lol. 

[Mr. Fox]

Thanks. Happy to share it. Let me know when you get home and are ready to use it. I've got an 8600 and and 8800 CMO I can send.

 

Edit: Here is a zip of the folder (BIOS, CMO and Settings TXT files). @Talon

Man, I’m shocked on 5090 power…. I popped in the 5080 Astral to check things on the 9950X3D2 and grab some rendering video of it, since it’s being sold. 
 

Playing Crimson desert 4K leverages the 5090 to a new level completely…
 

 

CRIMSON DESERT 4K, Cinematic graphics, DLSS Quality, Ray Reconstruction ON. 

 

RTX 5080 Astral fully MAX stable OC: 83-84 fps W/ 2X Frame Gen. 

 

RTX 5090 Astral fully MAX stable OC: 80-81 fps W/ 0X Frame Gen. (Frame Gen is off) 

 

💀💀💀

PS: GPU Tweak III has a cool GPU hour counter that I actually use. Probably the coolest thing in the app. 

 

 

 

[Mr. Fox]

Definitely not a daily driver like this, but worth a few giggles...

So, did a little bit of digging for elusive information online and found a solution that works with my TeamGroup CUDIMM kit. Forcing the clock driver to work for manual tuning without using an XMP profile allows me to keep the NGU, Ring and D2D values the same and still boot at 9000+ (example in above post). It will not work with my G.SKILL 8400 kit (non-CUDIMM).

 

With the CUDIMMs installed after POST there is a new menu under the Skew Control menu in memory configuration. CKD Configuration and manually set Single PLL mode forces the CUDIMM clock driver to take over and do the heavy lifting on manual tuning. If you have not booted at least once with a CUDIMM kit installed or have normal DIMM installed the CKD Configuration menu does not exist.

That is damn good for a D2D driver IMHO. I'm going to have to dive back in for some comparison work. Where did you download Memory Foundry Pro?

lol, you forgot the power of the 5090! 🤣 Especially now that you're running a real AIB card and not the 5090 FE adds that nice bit of "oomph" on top. I said it before and I'll say it again, if price was no object I would have stuck with the Astral. I liked EVERYTHING about it and I do mean EVERYTHING except the price. Aesthetics were great, cooling lights out for an air cooled card, good build quality, tons of QOL touches. Basically zero coil whine. I know it wasn't a deal breaker, but I know you have to be loving not having that screeching of the 5090 FE in pockets.

I knew you would dive in head first and have a blast @Mr. Fox!  Give it another month or so then you'll be able to see who rises to the top: AM5 or AL......

The developer has a thread at overclock.net and you can download it from the opening post (or his web site).

 

It is a great program. You can export your memory settings as an XML from HWiNFO64 and import it, click the analyze button, and it will tell you want timings are non-compliant with JEDEC. If you run the stability test if it can determine what setting is off it will identify it for you. Unless the price is crazy, I plan to buy it when the free beta access expires.

 

[BETA] Memory Foundry Pro – RAM Stability Tester & Benchmark | Free Beta Access

 

Now all we need is a clone of ZenTimings that works for Intel. The ASUS MemTweakIt and ASROCK Timing Configurator crapware tools are buggy junk. The ASUS tool is missing too much stuff and the AROCK tool misreports some values.

welp FML, the WVP II alarms have returned while playing BMW, back with a vengeance! still current imbalance issues. so i swapped out the cable i had been using on my 4090 before and now on the 5090, installed the WVPII and the backup cable anew, and guess what?! THE BACKUP CABLE IS EVEN WORSE! installed it twice and pushed in so hard i thought id break through the case back panel lol.

 

so now the plan is to go all out and order like 5 cables and bin them.....this connector is SO trash, unbelieveable. but yeah, the WVPII has already paid for itself! both cable connectors and gpu power socket are still in mint condition btw, so all is well.

 

u guys got any recommendations other than seasonic stock cables and cablemod?
