    Intel Readies Xeon W3500 and W2500 "Sapphire Rapids Refresh" Series HEDT Processors

    Wow, if this really is just a rebadge and 100Mhz increase over the current lineup then this is going to be the most DoA launch, SPR is already a tough sell and for us who already have it, if its not EMR there is basically zero reason to look at these

    Finding out what program keeps changing Minimum processor state to 100%

    Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for, I have it set up as you instructed and will follow up with what program caused the problem when it happens again, for now I'll try messing around with all the peripheral/driver software programs first. It caught the two times I manually changed...

    Finding out what program keeps changing Minimum processor state to 100%

    My apologies. no bittorrent, qbitorrent is present but is not allowed to auto start Yeah all plans were reset back to normal, I'm going to try deleting all the vendor stuff like alienware display command, ASUS armoury crate and icue etc Its a pain to try finding it as I have no idea when it...

    Finding out what program keeps changing Minimum processor state to 100%

    Yeah Xeon system on Win11, normally i wouldn't be bothered about it but its a near 90w power increase when its not able to go idle its not any monitoring tool polling that does it, I'm aware of such programs like crappy RGB software that spikes CPU usage, this is not that, I mean in the actual...

    Finding out what program keeps changing Minimum processor state to 100%

    To be brief, something, most likely a program, keeps changing the "minimum processor state" from 5% to 100% and I have no idea which one, Is there any way to find out what keeps doing it in something like event viewer or any other tool? tried google searching but got brain dead...

    Intel "Emerald Rapids" Die Configuration Leaks, More Details Appear

    They usually say Emerald is the best one, lets hope that its the case here too.

    SilverStone Alta F2

    I was looking at this case as it does look rather nice, also being one of the few that support SSI-EEB, but that price is well over twice what its worth imo..

    V-COLOR Achieves DDR5-8000 RDIMM Overclocking on TRX50 AERO D

    This is cool and all but.. for RDIMMs V-Color are outrageously expensive, my kingston 6000 kit absolutely sucks at overclocking and the gskill kits seems to be a paperlaunch as they dont exist anywhere. hopefully there are more options when TR launches properly

    Intel "Additional Turbo voltage" setting?

    I'm tweaking my Xeon w5 and one thing I have issues with is getting the voltage perfect With the current overclock I have right now, its only working because I set the individual core voltage to 1.200v, +0.187v "additional turbo mode voltage" which has been working fine BUT if I try to do...

    Share your CPUZ Benchmarks!

    New bios for the W790 SAGE now lets tile Xeons go above 5.2GHz without BCLK adjustments, running 5.4GHz 2 core, 5.3GHz on 2 and 5.2GHz on the other 12

    Possible to unlock hidden options in an AMI BIOS?

    Hi, So I have this Ryzen build and the motherboards BIOS has no real way of setting the VCCIO voltage, my ram kit is rated for 1.4v and the VCCIO uses that + about 50mv, the only option for it I can find is in one of those AMD overclocking menus and unsurprisingly it doesn't actually work as...

    Most efficient CPU to pair with an RTX 4060?

    I totally agree with you on most fronts, of course this isn't my daily driver PC as thats in my signature, this one is just for fun, I did look at older Ryzens but for me at least the cost of a chip, board and DDR4 ram is rather close to what I can get a cheap B650 + R5 7500F as I already have...

    Most efficient CPU to pair with an RTX 4060?

    I know the 4060 sucks but its now debating whether to just get a R5 7500F and tune it or splash out on a 7800X3D if it makes any significant difference with the 4060, it is for gaming primarily but nothing fancy given what this beige PC is, don't really want to go Intel at this point as its so...

    Most efficient CPU to pair with an RTX 4060?

    Fits a standard mATX motherboard, power supply is good, Silverstone TX500 500w TFX and has all the connectors. Was looking at the 7800X3D and possibly run it in eco mode if it supports it? pair it with a Dynatron A24 and blow the hot air out the vented side and should be good But wouldn't a...

    Most efficient CPU to pair with an RTX 4060?

    Good evening, I am planning to upgrade my beige computer and was wondering what you guys think is the most power efficient CPU that also pairs well with a RTX 4060, the case has less than ideal airflow and I would prefer not to modify the chassis just yet so whichever chip could generate the...
