so here's how I was thwarted in the setup video it says 79 80 XE right so that's what I that's what I assumed was in there so that's what I used this says 18 on it though 18 minutes that's number I shoulda looked at there it is I think this should help the enter max liquid tech tr4 - all in one liquid CPU cooler has a massive contact plate made just for thread Ripper and is rated for 500 watts of heat dissipation high pressure pwm fans mount two rubber channels on the radiator to absorb vibration and the sexy logo and edge lighting on the block is addressable for syncing with your motherboard it comes with an RGB control box - so click the spots are linked in the description for more what's up guys how's it going welcome back to Pauls hardware today's video is gonna be my attempts to continue my overclocking experiments with the RT x 20 ATT is in sli or envy link I should say and be linked to way and I'm trying to upgrade this course system if you watch the video where I set it up you might have noticed that I accidentally installed my 10 cores 7900 X instead of my 18 cores 79-80 XE I have swapped in the 79 80 X Y right now and what I was trying to do is just get some baselines some baselines for comparison but it's not going very well I need to deal in my 79 80 XE and I will be doing that very shortly I've got the der Bower at the leading tool for LGA 20 66 CPUs right here but I want to be able to say here's the before and the after for that so I have a 4.7 gigahertz overclock going right now on all the cores on my 79 ATX see the voltage is at one point two seven five I haven't done too much tweaking aside from that and I'm overheating and throttling I've had 100 and over a hundred degrees Celsius on all of the cores such as can constantly dialing back that 4.7 gigahertz overclock and making it pretty ineffective so that said rather than mess around too much with tweaking with voltages and stuff to get myself stable as is I'm gonna start upgrading when a delayed which should reduce my temperature significantly I'm gonna upgrade this ek waterblock which is an older one that actually might be a little bit corroded and not efficiently cooling inside I'll be swapping the item with an ek monoblock and have several other components that are supposed to like be arriving literally today so as I proceed I will hopefully be adding things to this test bed running tests in between and hopefully I'll be somewhere in the ballpark of where Steve and Jay are by the end of the day with their spy extreme world records overclocking attempts I should also point out that your Bower is also involved now and he's using ln2 but that's cheating so I don't care I'm mainly trying to compete with Steven J for now so I am becoming very suspect of my cpu block a little bit but also really hoping that the D lid will help me out some so here was my score from the initial tests I was running with the 7900 X 11 to 21 and here's the score just submitted twelve thousand thirty five so that's a decent jump although the cpu score only jumped by like around a thousand points graphics score jumped up by about two hundred points so really all I wanted to get was a baseline here to give me something to compare against as I do the thermal upgrades and I want to point out even though I lowered the CPU frequency we're running at four point six gigahertz on all cores on the CPU we were still hitting above 100 degrees on single cores so we were still probably experiencing some throttling so so rather than mess with this current configuration any further I am going to deal it the CPU and I think that monoblock might be arriving any minute now that twelve thousand thirty five score did bring me up on the list though currently sitting at seven I think I was like 14 just just a few minutes ago this will be my second time deleting a skylight hex processor it is pretty foolproof with this tool but we're still doing a somewhat dangerous action on a very expensive processor so yes I'm a little nervous we're gonna line up the triangle though pretty thoughtful and to do it that way make it so how this does is apply a very firm pressure to the side of the IHS in a uniform manner and we're keeping a close eye on this little surface mount these little surface mount guys over here because as soon as the IHS shifts just ever so slightly it shouldn't indicate that the seal is broken I'll try to do it by hand but I might need to crank it in just sick that's do you see my pressure being applied now no there it went that was more of a pop than I seen in the past it's fine because it didn't actually knock off any of these surface-mount none of things over here and we just have to hope that none of the stuff that's inside the IHS suffered from that da da dee lid little nerve-wracking alright guys the deal it is successful thankfully I don't think anything has been destroyed I guess I shouldn't wait to say that until I've reinstalled it and tested it but packages arriving today as predicted very excited and I think this will allow us to make an even bigger improvement on our CPU temperatures and hopefully also scores and overclocking frequency by water cooling it better all right what do we have here first check it out that is a monoblock specifically for the rampage 6 extreme right ROG I succeed yes that will help us greatly because the block we've been using I really don't think is doing an appropriate job this is an ek supremacy Evo but it's like two and a half years old and I've mistreated it which means it got a little corroded inside other than that oh look we have GPU water blocks this is the ek vector RT X xx atti RGB the RGB is the least of my concerns because I just want things to be cooler and they did send me two of these and these will fit on the reference founders edition design motherboard and I've got two of those and two of these so it looks like I get to water cool my graphics cards I'm not even sure I'm going to get to this today because I think for starters I need to get that mono block installed and at least get some more tests going with the air-cooled setup but these are ready to go for next steps let's get back to the CPU though one more package has shown up and this I'm pretty sure is memory ha we got a new kit of g.skill credenzie memory the Trident II you've probably seen before it is a design that they've been using for quite some time no fancy RGB or anything going on here what the selling point is of this kit is the speed is a 4 by 8 gig kit made specifically for X 299 this will work for X 399 as well and it's a 38 66 speed out of the box cast latency 18 and I should be able to overclock this even further than creasing the voltage in doing other overclocking things so Thank You G skill this should also help officially the first run with the monoblock installed right now here it comes survey says oh my gosh it just jumped 1,500 points 1,500 points alright so let me be clear here as as to what's been changed CPU has been deleted and you guys might have noticed that I did not use look with metal I actually don't have any liquid metal here and Kyle as kind as he was to bring the deleting tool over because he had borrowed it from gamers Nexus he didn't bring any a liquid metal so I do have like a metal coming it should be here tomorrow so we'll see how things go and I might pull the block off and apply liquid metal between the 79 80 XE die and the heat spreader the only other things that have been changed are the D lid the addition of the mono block instead of the just a CPU block and then I increased the pump speed because the pump was connected to one of the headers on the motherboard and it just wasn't running very fast so I have it connected to an external Zalman unit that's running it closer to maximum speed all of that without changing any of the overclock settings or anything still running at 4.6 gigahertz on all cores in the CPU led to about a 1,500 points increase in my score and I want to say that yes a lot of that had to do with the CPU score increase it looks mike-mike graphics core is about the same CPU score is now up to ten thousand seven hundred and fourteen and it still thinks I have g-sync on let's compare our online results and see see what that brings us to oh look look I just took the five spot yeah I am literally there's only one person time arts between me and J granite I still need to make up about 1500 points but that would put me in very rare company I think right up here in the top if I can get up into the top three or four with nobody up there but me and herb our gamers Nexus and J I think I'll be pretty happy so I still got work to do alright guys here's a follow-up if you can maybe see the table behind me I have cleared off and after the last bit in this video I have actually spent about a day and a half not the entire time but a tough time probably good 12 hours speaking settings messing around and trying to get more higher scores from time spy unfortunately I haven't had that much luck but I decided this morning I was going to take drastic steps in order to try to get something a little bit higher than I had before it's my apologies cuz everything is just a huge mess out here I have really just set stuff up and things are chaotic but this is my only portable AC unit and it is kind of tied into the back of the garage there for its exhaust so I set up this cardboard tube completely hacked together with duct tape and everything in order to pipe my cold air over to the system here which has been set up with more fans on it other than that I also have a supplemental power supply additional power supply for one of the CPUs because I was getting very close to the 1200 watt Paris power limit of the power supply I have installed fortunately it has run I did finish test just now that had a better score and I'm trying to play around a little bit with settings that might help then since I do have colder overall temperatures with the cold air from the AC being piped in right here but this run is about to finish let's see what my score turns out to be temps are way better max temp on the GPU is 61 C 13 663 that is better but it's still not quite getting me where I need to be so here's the current layout of scores on 3dmark and as you can see I've fallen several people have jumped up we've got DJ Koon from Korea Brian Ford VPS customs history and he's got a couple EVGA cards I dropped down to ninth but 13,600 ish does get me up to 813 663 I will still be an 8 I need to jump up to over 13 800 if I want to start competing with the guys in five six and seventh range but I think this mainly became a time issue because I'm about to go on another trip these things just keep popping up and taking my time away from doing stuff like this but my options were to either try the AC trick apply the water blocks or try to figure out something else with my radiator solution I decided to do the AC thing because I don't really have all the stuff I need to go further advanced water pulling right now I'm actually really sure it on radiators so think I'm gonna have to leave it at this for now I'm sorry guys I tried to provide more competition from gamers Nexus but guys thank you so much for watching this video rip Paul I guess is the end story here maybe next time we have a no seating competition I will compete a little bit more strongly hold on I take it all back I take it all back I spent more time and I've made progress actual progress hold on yeah all right first things first there's my score 13 8 61 for the record here let me turn off the air conditioner and before anything else turning the Wi-Fi back on we could go ahead and validate and compare that online 13 8 61 1/2 a jump over here to our current Hall of Fame for two GPUs you notice that currently number 5 there is Brian bps customs and he did a great job with his setup and that's not gonna be there and number 5 for long I was at 13 806 there's my old fifth place 413 536 and I was pushed all the way down to eighth or ninth place but I would basically just kept raising in my base clock this was after trying a bunch of different various overclocking methods yesterday and I kept getting just a little bit higher a little bit higher I got to 13 7 713 732 13 738 32 759 and then finally I got to 13 803 which you didn't bring me up in the standings but tied me for eighth and then I got to 13 806 and that brought me up to seventh but really close to both Brian and WTO Mike here so if i refresh with my new score there we go I am back into fifth place with 13 860 and my wife you saw so there I am for now at least in fifth place for 13 8 61 I would have been in 4th place but a dude from Korea has jumped in there in between me and J and gamers Nexus but I think that's where I'm gonna be for now here's a quick look at the final setup the ghetto cardboard mod here for a tube of air to go over to the computer assembly I've also been adding some card around the side just to sort of direct the air this could be much more efficient this was supposed to be a very quick setup so I could just try to get stuff a little bit cooler in here and I got several fans doing some extra work pushing the air over the entire rig I got this one on top trying to pull some air off and of course I've got the dual power supplies to power everything the maximum wattage we pulled was 11 27 which is not too bad at all here's a look at my GPU overclock 1085 on the memory plus 150 on the GPU clock voltage max power sliders max and the fans were max - I gave me a boost clock of 1795 with the memory at 2021 and it looks like my max frequency was 20 85 as for the CPU I'm an interesting overclock going on that I'll show you in a second but basically I'm getting it just over 5 gigahertz on a single core and when it's running across all cores it's fitting at 4842 megahertz I hope you guys can see this ok but these are my overall results here target turbo mode frequency four point nine seven two gigahertz AVX offset is 100 megahertz below that and then my dear am is just below 4000 just below four gigahertz and then also my cache frequency also known as the mesh is at 32 11 megahertz and these numbers all wonky because I did some BC LK or base clock overclocking bump that up to 103 point six and that is what was working for me today the fact that my frequencies are this high is actually baffling to me because I was getting nowhere near this yesterday today was just that base clock overclocking and then of course the air conditioner that helped me get much much better frequencies I was doing by core overclocking which allowed me to set as specific turbo limit for each core which is at 48 47 46 respectively for 2 for 8 cores and 18 cores of course then that is multiplied by 103 point whatever my base clock 13.6 that gives you the frequency which is a little bit harder to figure out when you're not multiplying by 100 so there you go DRM frequency 39:36 I did not mess with advance timings I'm in 1819 1938 and then I did a few other things like little 9 calibrations it's seven hundred and forty percent and two hundred percent current capability for the power delivery and then also of course voltage is CPU core voltage at 1.35 cache voltage at 1.33 DRAM was at 1.45 input voltage of 1.95 and system agent at one point one so now I can say that's all for this video guys thank you for sticking with me I am really happy that this setup started to produce produce some results I got back into the top 5 even though I'm still just using air cooling for the GPUs a huge huge thank you to g.skill for sending that memory kit over ek for sending the monoblock and also the GPU blocks that I haven't even used yet and then of course gigabyte for providing the 2080 Ti and NVIDIA for providing the other 20 ATT I thank you guys all so so much for watching this video the thumbs up if you enjoyed it and I will have more videos coming at you very soon so subscribe to balls hardware if you're not already thank you for watching we'll see you next time you
