Just logged my MSI Afterburner graphs to a file if anyone wants to take a peek. This was just after about 10 mins of Warzone. Please let me know if anything else should be included in these readings. MSI.hml file

Happy Easter guys I appreciate your responses! Good thinking, I uninstalled Glorious Core which is the software I use for my keyboard. Since I have a Zowie mouse my peripheral software thankfully stops at my keyboard. Unfortunately no change with just those two plugged in and software...

Hey! I actually did not consider this upon updating my bios. Gave it a shot but unfortunately am still getting the same performance. I really appreciate your suggestion though. Was bored and tried Windows 11, same performance but hey at least I get to learn this new OS ;-;

Hello everyone! Recently I've been concerned with the performance of my 4070 TI in some games. Take for instance Warzone II, the GPU doesn't seem to want to operate at full tilt. Instead, it seems to fluctuate between 70-97% usage all throughout gameplay. Now and then while I play this...

I appreciate it, the only two TVB settings I've noticed are frequency clipping TVB and Voltage reduction initiated TVB. Would those be the same? So far I turned everything back that you advised, upped my voltage to 1.33v and everything's seeming stable so far, the heat is getting a little too...

I might've misinterpreted what you meant a while ago about the C-states. I thought they might've been the source of the problem since I've had all of them on Auto, got the crashing, then disabled them to continue experiencing it. With CPU OC's aren't they the first thing you should look for when...

Under that C-sates control, if you just hit disable is turns off all of these: CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) C3 State C6/C7 State C8 State C10 State Package C State Limit

Hmm right, I do have all those C-states disabled which is odd. If you were to monitor your vcore when under load does it jump up say +0.5v over what you had it set in the bios? Would there be any way I can up the vcore when idling so it doesn't drop so much?

That's what I was figuring, only thing is my clock seem very static, even under really low load it will float around 4.75-4.8Ghz. So even if the core voltage is set to 1.305v in the bios it won't try to consistently stay around it?

Quick update: I was watching my Vcore on intel XTU while stress testing and noticed how it behaved. In my bios I have LLC set to turbo and my voltage at 1.305v. When idling my voltage can drop as low to 1.244v and while underload it can jump to 1.389v. Is this amount of voltage fluctuation...

That's what I was thinking. Is it fairly common for higher quality PSU's to have that 4-pin? I know I don't necessarily need it but might as well look into spending the money for something good.

I'd hope they aren't corrupt. This only started happening after the CPU overclock so it's probably just a power thing. Would the overclock on my GPU pose anything too?

Definitely shouldn't have cheaped out on the PSU, probably going to upgrade it soon regardless. For now I might just keep on tacking .05V and hope my temps don't get too out of hand. It's probably just adding more fuel to the fire at this point though lol. Do you have any experience with reading...

True, might be caught lackin in the PSU department. Figured to get whatever PSU 2 years ago at microcenter. Yet I'm just confused how it would let me crank CPU benchmarks with no problem but cause power issues when idling?

Right, should've specified. It's been so long since I took a look at the thing I actually have a 700watt Thermaltake Smart. It is only 80+ certified so it's nothing special which leads me to believe it's pretty . Also I would like to note my motherboard has an extra 4-pin ATX power connector...
