What are the CCC days from now on?

OriginalGriff22-Dec-21 23:06

22-Dec-21 23:06

I think probably there will be one tomorrow, then shut down until the new year (Monday 3rd)?

Any strenuous objections?

I think there may be copious objections. Poke tongue | ;-P

But nobody wants to strain themselves at this time of year! Laugh | :laugh:

If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

AMD Ryzen and heat

honey the codewitch22-Dec-21 19:25

22-Dec-21 19:25

How many of you run a modern(ish) Ryzen?

They seem to run a little hot. 65C while stress testing, but I read somewhere these chips are good for up to 90 degrees or so.

I know nothing about AMD. Am I totally off base here thinking my chip is actually running pretty cool for this series of chips?

65 C while under stress is very good... The 9-line is graded up the close to 100 C, the 7-line is around 85 C...
Probably with age you will see some higher temperatures... In case it comes you can bring in some serious cooling system... or switch the CPU...
However for now the 65 C is more than perfect...

It would be, except I have a problem which might be related.

My CPU is performing very poorly on userbenchmark compared to other people's Ryzen 7 4750Gs on the CPU benchmark. It's not anything obvious like slow RAM or throttling by Windows power settings.

So it almost makes me wonder if my BIOS is undervolting my chip or something?

Except the benchmark problem - do you see an actual problem while working on the computer?
Do you know the site 'tom's hardware'? It is a very good place to ask questions about hardware...

Tom's hardware? I didn't think that site was legitimate. I got malware from there once I think, but it was years ago.

I don't see a problem per se, but the numbers are so out of whack it makes me wonder if there *is* one, you know?

I don't like the idea of hardware anomalies on my system. Smells like trouble to me.

Kornfeld Eliyahu Peter22-Dec-21 22:24

22-Dec-21 22:24

I got no malware from that site, but some good answers...

As for hardware anomalies... Benchmark is not exactly rocket science and if beside it your experience is good I would not bother myself over it... Run your most demanding game and see how it behaves - that is a more solid test than any benchmark software...

Well, my single core performance *could be better* but that's more about shortening compile times.

With the monster video card I have in it, it eats games.

Do you use -m (or any other definition of parallel compiling)? It may help not to use a single core for all the compilations...
