Just wanted to update my gaming build since I made some upgrades. Swapped the mobo from a Gigabyte Aorus Ultra Gaming to the Auros Gaming 7 Wifi, from Vengeance LPX to G.Skill Flare X cas14 3200 2x8 memory. Running all noctua 3000rpm industrial fans (3x120mm, 5x140mm) with the Noctua NH-D15 CPU Cooler. I also dialed my overclocks in better on the new mobo and got some better scores.
I've run the CPU at and have a profile set up for 4.3ghz all core at 1.41875v and I've churned out some pretty crazy benchmarking scores, but I usually just use XFR enhancement+PBO and a negative voltage offset for daily/gaming use. The CPU never gets above 55C while gaming and that's a temporary spike from a steady 48C even in the most demanding titles.
Overclocking the Red Devil Vega 64 has been the fun part and I've pretty well settled on 1600mhz actual base clock, 1100mhz memory clock, and undervolted to 1040mv. The actual Wattman settings are P6 1567mhz 1020mv, P7 1662mhz 1040mv, Memory clock at 1100mhz and 1000mv(floor voltage). Fans are set to 2500min 2900max and turn off at 40C. I'm on the OC bios for the triple bios switch. I've run Witcher 3 at 1440p maxed settings and hover between 59-62C GPU and HBM temps with 80-85C hotspot temps. Runs pretty solid at 90-120 fps respectively.
Anyways, this is my first build ever and it's been a whole lot of fun learning about everything as I go. I run 1440p 144hz for RPG/graphics oriented games and 1080p 240hz for competitive play. Black Ops 4, COD WWII, Fortnite, Witcher 3 and Skyrim are among some of the titles that I like to play.
