Hey all, just to start with (and sorry for the long post)…please go easy on me here as I’m by no means good at overclocking but definitely trying to expand my knowledge 😬 Have been perusing this sub for a while and various other forums, Bullzoid et al videos and all the rest of it, so I understand the basics but that’s about it hah!
Ok so:
I’ve basically gone deep down the ram/cpu overclocking rabbit hole after only ever using expo 1 and a tuned CPU using one of those fairly decent YouTubers settings (who’s name is alluding me now). It’s served me well but..I want more.
I’ve fiddled SO much with my ram timings and various voltages etc using trial and error and other posts I’ve found online that I’ve kind of got myself lost and not sure what to do next, if anything. Using the settings you can see on zentimings I’m unable to increase to 6200, nor the fclk whatsoever without instability/unable to boot. I’ve tried going back to TCL 30 and increasing to 6200 but that also doesn’t work.Could anybody offer any suggestions on whether I can improve the scores you see in Aida (I know it’s not everyone’s favourite tool but it works for me), especially latency? I’m aware it’s high cap memory and dual rank so I might have reached the limits already.
For context, I predominantly use this setup for gaming (and mostly msfs2024) and heavy video/photo editing:
– Tuf Gaming 5090
– Corsair 96GB 6000mhz CL30 (M-die, dual rank)
– 9950x3d
– have a good case with great airflow + 2 NOCTUA fans pointing at the ram so temps are no issue
Cheers!
