Delta59R Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) Actually** LOL I decided to try something, in my bios I can not only down clock but also turn cores off. Out of curiosity I down clocked my 8700k to 4.4ghz, turned off Hyper threading and disabled 2 cores, affectively making it a 4core/4 thread 4.4ghz cpu. Very similar to the specs of the modest 7600k. The results were interesting, I was mostly holding 45fps flying through downtown Dubi with the HP Reverb. CPU usage was hovering around 50% and gpu usage was around 85% If anyone would like me to try something else out let me know. :) Edited November 3, 2019 by Delta59R Meshify C w Noctua Fans, MSI Carbon Z790, 13900KS, 64gb 7200 Gskill, MSI 4090, MSI 240, Sam 1tb m2, Sam 512 m2, Seasonic 1000w, MSFF2 Stick + X56 Throttle, HP Reverb G2, Sony 83in A90J OLED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delta59R Posted November 3, 2019 Author Share Posted November 3, 2019 Wow . Very interesting . Thanks . Yeah! I believe with A bios update you could upgrade all the way to a 7700K with your MOBO.

Svsmokey Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Yeah! I believe with A bios update you could upgrade all the way to a 7700K with your MOBO. Absolutely correct . The board has been satisfactory in every way , but only supports memory to 2400 . And a 7700k costs as much as a 9700k . Between those considerations and no overclocking potential , the plan is to bite the bitter bullet , and get a new motherboard . Don't think i haven't thought about though !

That is defiantly a consideration, I'm going to look into it but for some reason I want to say the memory speed is cpu dependent and not necessarily what the board originally was speced for but I could be miss remembering.

Delta59R Posted November 3, 2019 Author Share Posted November 3, 2019 2 core test and 3 core test @ 4.4ghz 2 cores ~ =30fps 95% cpu and 65% gpu 3 cores ~ =45fps 65% cpu and 90% gpu 4 cores ~ =45fps 45% cpu and 90% gpu This makes me think DCS can only efficiently leverage 3 cores. I wonder if it can only utilize 2 for rendering and 1 for loading environment? I have really have no idea just speculating.

Svsmokey Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Funny , both the website and the manual specify 2133 or 2400 , depending on version , but both say it also supports xmp 2.0 .

Strong05 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 You can actually drop cores real time with the windows affinity settings. Performance gets real bad when you drop to one core. 5800X3d, 32GB DDR4@3400, 6800 xt, Reverb G2, Gunfighter/TMWH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitMaster Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Intel limited the chipset to 2133MHz RAM speed. You can buy any RAM but they will only run at 2133MHz. ehhh, did I say that chipset sucks ? You can still keep the cpu-mobo-ram for a HomeTheatre PC or sell it, but it wont get you far if you try to upgrade it. Best would be to hop to a AMD Ryzen 3600X/3700X and a B450 board + RAM, that could be the cheapest ticket you can buy to more power Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Asus 1080ti EK-waterblock - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus PG278Q 27" QHD Gsync 144Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demon_ Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 You should try 4 cores at 4.8Ghz. And show the max, min. The average varies over time. Attache ta tuque avec d'la broche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
