    Question Maddening noises - any help appreciated.

    It sounds to me like coil whine, it’s not coming from a fan. I tried undervolting to help remove the sound of the whine and reduce it, I do everything via bios so it does stick. Idk how it’s overclocked when I reduced voltage and TPD/PPT/EDC and set a -30 curve.

    Question Maddening noises - any help appreciated.

    Hi. I recently posted here after I built an upgrade to my PC, I thought all was well but it has been issue after issue honestly. A lot of undervolting experimentation (to reduce coil whine and loud buzzing noises from the fans), and other issues surrounding noise and performance and stuttering...

    Question New gpu/cpu far below average on 3Dmark tests. Advice appreciated SOLVED! :D

    Definitely go for it! As people say there’s no damage risk with undervolt as compared to overclocking. The worst thing is maybe crashing until you lessen the amount a bit through trial and error. Good luck with your card!

    Question New gpu/cpu far below average on 3Dmark tests. Advice appreciated SOLVED! :D

    when researching undervolt I saw constantly that it wont affect performance at all, for a standard UV anyway. And I’m sure it’s doable, that’s just how I got my score back up to an average/normal % which I wanted so I can feel relieved my card is ok and working properly. Probably down the line I...

    Thanks for all your help! I think what it was, was my undervolt was too aggressive, it lowered my score from 20k which is the average to only 17k. I’m just not using an UV now, until I need it or can justify the performance loss. Maybe I did it wrong or too much though.

    Question New gpu/cpu far below average on 3Dmark tests. Advice appreciated SOLVED! :D

    Hi, I did all of what you said as well as undoing all my undervolts for everything and resetting the bios (and re-enabling xmp), I got a much more average/decent score 20361 when the average is 20831. I’m far happier with this, I know it’s working as intended and I don’t have a faulty or waste...

    Question New gpu/cpu far below average on 3Dmark tests. Advice appreciated SOLVED! :D

    I see, that’s great! Some people thought I’d have to return the card, but it sounds like the card is working well just low scores.. I hope together we can find out why! Yes my ram is running at designed speed. My bios is that version I believe, and I’ll try disabling those options in 3Dmark...

    Question New gpu/cpu far below average on 3Dmark tests. Advice appreciated SOLVED! :D

    I see, alright I’ll try that! Thanks! It’s not a long term fix hopefully, I do use both hdds for games but I might try to transfer some of them to the new ssd if it helps my gpu perform better. As for the ram, I only just got new ram a while ago so I probably won’t upgrade for a while. Hopefully...

    Hi! Thanks for answering! Sorry, I’m new here and not the most technologically minded. I put some of my specs in the og post. Hopefully it helps! The bios version is the latest possible I could get, released in 2021. The ram, I turned xmp on, storage I have a 4TB HDD, and a 2TB HDD, a 2TB...

    Hi, it’s more so the gpu I believe is underperforming. I’ve updated my original post with my specs. I also have the monitor graphs of the score test maybe it could help you see it better, if I manage to post them here somehow.

    Hi all, Been helped a few times on this site and I’m really hoping this can be another. I’m at my wits end really, I’ve just recently upgraded my pc, everything except the motherboard almost, and my timespy and Firestrike scores are well below average for my 4070 super ti and 5800x3D. I’ve...

    Alright thank you. I did look at the page but I struggle to interpret it a bit, (I’m not super tech minded). I’ll just try the other ports.

    Question Pc wont recognise HDDs - new upgrade

    I do have it in the m.2 slot! This could be it and I had no idea it does that! So the solution may be just to keep trying new drives I guess. Technically I now have 2 m.2 ssds so i should try find the sata ports that still work. If I have both m.2 slots filled, do you know which of my sata...
