Current rig:
Cooler master TD500 mesh ( with included 3x front 120 fans)
Ryzen 7 5800x
RTX 3070
32gb DDR4 3200mhz
Noctua NH-U12S cpu cooler
Be-quiet silent wings x2 exhaust
1000w Corsair PSU
Monitor: Dell S3222DGM 1440p 165hz SDR
Finally broke down and overclocked my 3070 to see if it could keep up with modern titles. +1000mhz memory and +115mhz core was stable. Ran Cyberpunk (mostly high settings) at ~110 fps (no ray tracing) and ~50-60 fps (with ray tracing). Bumped mem to 1100 and core to 120 and saw about an 11.5% increase in fps but it wasn’t quite stable. 1000 mem at 120 core seemed to be fine but had stutter every now and then so I dropped it down 5 mhz. Pretty stable now. Every now and then I have issues like when I enter or exit a vehicle or exit certain buildings. It’ll drop down to 17-30fps for a few seconds before jumping back to 95-105. Although I have a feeling that has more to do with my mods than the gpu/cpu.
Temps for the gpu sit around 63-64c and haven’t gone higher than 65c. My cpu sits around 83c pretty consistently. Max temp I’ve seen is 90. Might throw an aio in to see if I can get it lower. I’d love to hear your thoughts on how I can get better performance out of what I have. Planning an AM5 build perhaps later this year but for now I’m running what I built 6ish years ago.
