Hello! I have a ASUS PRIME X570-P and Ryzen 3600 but i don't see on levels the LLC and they have names Auto, Regular, Medium, High and Extreme. Which one is? Greetings

It's a nice and useful application and it works well so far. Thank you very much for sharing it with us. Manual oc resulted in 5401 points in CB20 so far. With the ctr application: stoc ~4900, optimized 5166 points, which is good considering that it doesn't run that hot like with manual oc (translates into +6,25% performance gain and -13,3 Watts). The 3800X cpu was diagnosed as a 'Gold Sample', which is also quite nice, it reminds me of those Gainward GS GLH gpus, so yesterday I named the cpu ''golden sample - goes like hell'', for fun. 😀 😎 Enjoy the app.

i was under the impression that CTR is supposed to overclock and undervolt. but the default settings for my 3700x just overclocked VERY SLIGHTLY and just raised the volts. so standard overclock as far as i can see. also it doesnt give me the option to change the testing mode for some reason, but that might be me not understanding how it works. if anyone knows im interested and wanna learn 🙂
If you want to overclock set a positive voltage offset in BIOS instead of Auto. Compensate for too high voltage under load setting a lower LLC. With Auto voltage my LLC is reported too low, -2/3%. even at Extreme. My 3800x is really bad and with an all core 4400 MHz in BIOS doesn't even boot in Windows. Never been able to run the 2nd CCX at 4400 MHz before. Max per-CCX with 1st CCX at 4400 MHz was 4300 MHz. With CTR seems stable, didn't test much so far, requires 50 mV less and generates much less heat. https://i.imgur.com/8QJJUiD.jpg https://i.imgur.com/pzAFJaX.png

No matter what I set my LLC to I still get message "There is a need to reduce LLC" (tried 1-5). I'm running a Asus x570 TUF Gaming-Plus with 3900x. Anyone found a way to adjust settings for this BIOS or CTR?
Load line calibration and voltage drop is part of the known issue isn't it? https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/j223zk/1usimus_clocktuner_for_ryzen_released/
From 1usmus Twitter At the moment there are 2 problems in CTR. The system recommends using the 6000MHz+ frequency after diagnostic mode. You should wait for the hotfix. Vdroop info - just IGNORE it. It does not affect the result. — Yuri Bubliy (@1usmus) https://twitter.com/1usmus/status/1310992125828501507
EDIT: This seems useful too.
BSOD during diagnostics means that the recommended voltage is too low for your sample processor. It also means that you lost in the silicon lottery. Tomorrow I will provide a hotfix, which will have a slight impact. Also note that the CTR is also affected by the motherboard (VRM). - 1usmus

It is pretty useless to be honest CB20 doesnt even pass on the first try without hitting the 80c limit when ran in CTR @ 4025mhz Running CB20 normally that speed would hit about 70c max it finally set speeds of 4175/4150 for my 2 ccx's when i can get 4300 all core with less voltage and heat manually this causes game perf to drop as normally 1 or 2 cores do hit 4400 or 4375 ect so im losing ~200mhz of perf during gaming

Excellent, thank you! https://i.imgur.com/zh1dS4W.png By using VDDCR CPU Power Phase Control = Extreme we may get better results, in Extreme mode all phases stay ON. For the Asus TUF setting the VDDCR CPU Switching Frequency to 350 may be also beneficial.

Cool, I am taking back my words then. Guess I am just unlucky. Besides, After completing all steps, it gives me 4175 MHz clock on both CCX. but when i run Prime95 manually ( Smally FFT ) it instantly crashes. I then increased temp limit to 90c and run test again, then it crashed like after 2-3 seconds. So what could be wrong here? Should I use start over again with tool?

@fersnake more than a year old, use the amd balanced plan that comes with the driver package from amd.

J0eri:

Stupid question maybe but ... he recommends LLC3. Lowering would be like going to LLC2 or rather LLC4?
I think on ASUS lower LLC is going down with the number, so LLC2. You can check by yourself cause CTR is reporting the vDroop percentage delta. Let's say, keeping the same voltage, tells you +1% and with LLC2 +2% then it's lowering LLC, more Vdroop. If with LLC4 the percentage changes to -1% then it's higher LLC, less Vdroop.

I take it 3950x no "additional tweaks" means no diagnostic mode ? I also had a weird issue I think from running 2 CTRS at once by accident. It set all cores to 4050mhz including CCX5-8 which I dont have. When I try to delete them the program crashes. https://i.imgur.com/T62ZIsD.png

If you care to read the article you would see your cpu is not supported

Setup : Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro (F30 BIOS) , AMD Ryzen 9 3900X , TEAMGROUP-UD4-3600 CL14 8GB (x2) , Corsair 850W PSU, Win10 Pro x64. What ever I try my PC trips power and hard resets during the 'Start' phase of the process. Diagnostics runs ok, CD20 runs ok at the start of step two but always restarts the PC at some point in the testing after that. Tried loads of different BIOS settings, manual mem, XMP mem, 3200Mhz mem with auto timings, different LLC etc etc. Diagnostic results: Energy efficient: 3.86 AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor - Gold sample Recomended values for Overclocking: Reference frequency: 4375 MHz Reference voltage: 1250 mV Recomended values for Undervoolt: Reference frequency: 4200 MHz Reference voltage: 1150 mV :(

Phew, nearly bricked my computer in the most stupid way. So I look at the requirements and turns out I need to update the BIOS. I get the new BIOS, prepare a USB stick and just as I restart the computer to flash, power runs out. Now I'm panicked to flash, what if it runs out again in the middle of it? Encourage me please 🙂)
Wait until power appears to be stable. If its a regular problem get an UPS.
