    Question CPU draws 65 watts power at idle ?

    I don't even know what that is, but i will check. Does C state only affect idle power draw or at load as well?

    Question CPU draws 65 watts power at idle ?

    Hello. I have an i9 11900k set to 4.7 Ghz all core and 1.17V. The Cpu is stable with these settings, and at full load temps are good, better than stock settings. My only problem is that even at idle the CPU draws 60-65W of power, at 0% ussage. I tried ussing stock settings and i have the same...

    Question CPU stress testing

    I've noticed that, even though i have it set at 1.4V in the BIOS, when in full load it doesn't go above 1.23V, and idle is at 1.37. So i should be safe, heck, i could go even higher😅

    Question CPU-Z vs Hwmonitor

    I know this question was probably asked many times before, but please have mercy on me😊 i don't know which program shows the most acurate reading of the core voltage. I have the core voltage set to 1.4 in Bios, however Hwmonitor shows 1.225-1.235 when in full load and 1.36-1.37 when in idle...

    Question CPU stress testing

    When you say "cause errors" what would that mean? A crash or a quick drop in performance?

    Question CPU stress testing

    I have an 11900k paired with an Asus z590 Maximus extreme and i've been trying to overclock my CPU a bit, just for fun....the SP rating of my CPU is 49, which is bad...but i could get it to 5ghz all core and 0 AVX offset to be stable at 1.4 V, which is a bit high probably. Temps at full load...

    [SOLVED] Overclocking TridentZ Royal Elite 3600mhz cl14

    I just bought a 4×8 Gb ddr4 kit, it's Tridentz royal elite at 3600mhz cl14. I will pair it with an 11900k and an Asus z590 Maximus hero extreme motherboard. Do you think i could overclock it to 4400 mhz at cl19 or 18? And how do i do it? I know ram speed won't really make a difference but i want...

    [SOLVED] Quad channel RAM

    I want to purchase new ram for my PC. I'm looking at the Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 3600mhz and i want 4×8 Gb. Do i need to get a quad channel kit or can i get 2×dual channel kits? My reasoning is, if they are the same, two separate dual channel kits shouldn't be a problem, but i wouldn't...

    [SOLVED] Noctua case fans

    I understand what you say...but if you really wanted fans down there, what would you pick? Static pressure or airflow?

    [SOLVED] Noctua case fans

    So you're saying no fans is better than having extra fans to bring more air to the GPU and inside the case? 🤔
