https://www.techpowerup.com/review/1usmus-custom-power-plan-for-ryzen-3000-zen-2-processors/2.html Got me a lot closer to 144 fps at 1480p in Borderlands 3 Standing still I get the max my monitor can do (frame capped on gsync) and during action only dips 20fps or so. It's boosted it ~30-40fps for me. I dunno if the motherboard settings helped or the power plan.. I wasn't able to find 2 of the settings.

I still gain a few percent gain on his power plan, it doesn't idle as low though. I may reinstall park control and use his plan for a system load and the new windows ryzen plan for idle. Also Directx 12 doesn't seem utterly broken on borderlands anymore and nets me much FPS on my new modern system.

Ironically though, CSGO is one of the games where it's a wash between AMD and Intel for some reason.

I run a surprising amount of single core stuff, but the 3700x was neat and a good price so I went with it. A lot of games only use like 20-30% cpu with the gpu maxed anyway. Would it be higher utilization if the games were programmed better multi core? Or is the way it works "you are fine unless your CPU is at 100%"

I've got the 3700X but these newfangled zens would only be 5-15% better on paper and negligible for 4k right? And be hotter and use more power? Is the allure they are much better on single threaded stuff? I have a few games that are like that, but meh.

At least one other goon had the same setup and said it was fine, it does kinda suck a little heat off the CPU though the GPU, but that just ends up leaving them the same temps.

I actually play quite a few cpu limited games, but most need specifically single core performance so I just live with it on my 3700x instead of going intel. One or two apparently greatly benefit from running off the GPU ram, I think Kenshi is one. I won't be getting a 3090 though, 3080 founders is plenty for me for now. E: I wonder if going from 65w to 105w default tdp would cause my GPU to run hotter/worse since the founders kinda pulls from my cpu area slightly.

The temps on my 5800x3d were pretty high, It turns out I didn't tighten my cooler all the way. Repasted and re-seated my cooler and it was still hitting like 81-86, so I tried undervolting my 3080 founders edition for the first time and that seems to have helped. Founders edition exhausts at my cpu (mostly under it) which wasn't a problem with my 3700x. I followed this guide https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/tw8j6r/there_are_two_methods_people_follow_when/ Also for some reason my gpu is no longer 100% usage in "ugly" indie game Ragnorium mdxi posted:Every major hardware site and several minor ones put out reviews of it over the past two weeks. Googling the part number returns a page full of youtube and written review links.

Yeah I'm fine leaving it all default auto. I was just kinda curious. I may try the undervolt someday, but I got the temps down to below 75° C so it should be nailing it's boosts. I did read an article that ram speed may also be less relevant for the 5800x3d, someone was only getting 1% improvements in several games from 3200 to 3800. The theory being that the v cache is smoothing that bottleneck as well. I've never even come close to a ram overclock and at this point I'm not repeating the frustration of trying, beyond hitting xmp/docp for what the ram says it can hit.

Undervolting my video card finally brought my 5800x3d temps to more comfortable levels. My 3080 founders is kinda close to my d-15 and blows towards it somewhat. I mean it was fine before, but I'm pretty sure I can hit max boosts now.

The very newest bios is the ones that finally fix that issue actually (the last few bios that came out were supposed to help), I never did experience any tpm issues on window 10 or 11 when I switched. You will need an ~April or newer bios to fully use your 5800x3d. I have one too.
