Iām a little bit confused with your benchmark results.
I see that you have āall GPUsā for your benchmark results but the way I understand things now, 5.3+, does not support multi-GPUs on standard licenses or are these results from the so-called TVAi Pro version? Thank you for your time.
my 13900K is limited both in performance to avoid Intels stability issues and in cooling with the Noctua NH-D15 air cooler which I run with only 25 % of its max rpm to keep it silent.
What are your thermals under that air-cooled at full load?
Also, Iām sure you may know, though, the issue you could be experience is oxidation.
Did you upgrade your BIOS to microcode 0x129 yet?
Just a heads-up, if you are having issues, Intel has deployed a massive RMA for defected 13- 14-gen CPUs and Intel has extended users warranties an extra 2 or 3-years (I forget which) to DIY or pre-build systemās owners.
This is with the new 0x129 microcode BIOS. My Noctua D15S cooler has never been able to handle the 13900K at full tilt and the new BIOS didnāt change that. However, Asus has improved memory compatibility compared to my ~year-old BIOS and Iām now able to run the Asus ātweakedā setting for this kit. (This is an extra one-click option, with some tuned sub-timings, that Asus offers for some memory kits) This is a 2-stick G-Skill 48GB kit running at 7200MT 36-46-46-115
After trying a few different settings, I ended up using the Intel āExtremeā Default settings, but with a 1.4V VID limit to keep temps under control. Iām also running a 90C temp limit, but the benchmark doesnāt get anywhere near it.
Yes, thatās true, as I have some unexpectedly poor results.
I want to do cross-platform testing and follow Topazās recommendations with GPU generations.
Iām also testing all parts separately to determine any bottlenecks, but for now the 9950X is performing very well outside of TVAI, eating 210W, peaking 6 GHz single core, 5.4GHz on all cores, but now have to dissipate all that heat. The AM5ās IHS is so tinyā¦ what a stupid choice
It is significantly ahead my previous 7950X, but also heats much more.
Iāll be back (soon?) with something like 2x RTX 4090 or 5x RTX 3070, depending on the time I spend coding
This is X3D, that is known to butkick because of its embeded cache.
I do want to massively o/c it so I canāt go to a X3D else I will fry the cache instanly.
Also device is positionned to 0 which means āautoā, I do also have better result using āautoā than āall GPUā, that is not normal : The load on GPU should be full and CPU only sending jobs to them. On āAutoā itās working much !
EDIT : Sorry I missread, please put your bench under quotes, itās unreadable and forget all those things out of 1920x1080, we canāt compare else
This is indedd very low with a dual RTX 4090, absolutely not normal.
Give mobo, RAM details please
/!\ Preliminary results - All GPU /!\ (not fully convinced of my settings)
I think CEP should be enabled as well as TVB clipping. The 25% fan speed limit on the CPU cooler sounds pretty low, but I guess that depends on how quiet you want things. The 307 current limit probably wonāt effect the benchmark, but could hurt performance when you run multiple renders at once. (25% fan speed will hurt in that scenario as well)
Other than that, the biggest limiting factor I see is your RAM. 6000 C32 vs 7200 C36 (and Asus ātweakedā timings)
Also, are the āN/Aā results tests that did not complete?
I think N/A means ānot availableā because the model does not support this. Rhea for example will always render at 4x and Aion is the only model that supports a 16x slow-motion. Enable TVB none enhanced clipping and/or CEP will ruin the CPU performance though. my RAM supports up to 6800 Mhz CL36-42-42 but this will increase the voltage to 1.4 V.
