AMD and a hot date to flirt at the horrorshow
(HexDump seldom-crashed messaged bits&pieces)
CoreTemp and SpeedFan freewares. (And a lot of disparities between the two and how AMD's implementing sensors. The "tester" may have a better sense than CoreTemp programmer's treatment, i.e. marginality for offsets somehow seem a debilitation.) Best to run both in notification for the upcoming summer. AMD may be trickier, but 130 F is more like 140 F to me, at least what I'm used to with AMD, from 350Mhz upwards. Almost spooky: 70C. ga-78lmt-usb3_v.6.0 BIOS is nuts with all the options, between the multiplier and AMD's Turbo Boost. ...ways to push at 4Ghz. Which is very modern. Turned off the MB's CPU Boost for some vague reason that momentarily eclipses me, few days, a week ago, and then turned it back on again today. I can't wait until the summer kicks in to cook. AMD FX-8300 Vishera 8-Core 3.3 GHz Socket AM3+ 95W FD8300WMHKBOX - AMD Engineer Obviously Not ....whatever you do don't go turbo core. I found out the hard way of how it works. After months of troubleshooting my fps drops in all games i came to the conclusion that it was turbo core. What turbo core does it gives it more power when it needs it, so in some situations in game you'll get these massive fps drops because of turbo core thinking you don't need alot of power, so it underclocks it self. ITE IT8620E21 °C 69.8 °F room temperature 30 °C 86.0 °F 37 °C 98.6 °F average body temperature 40 °C 104.0 °F 50 °C 122.0 °F 60 °C 140.0 °F 70 °C 158.0 °F 80 °C 176.0 °F - I have done testing on this board. TMPIN0 is the motherboard sensor located above the ITE chip, lower left corner of board. It measures a combination of ambient air and motherboard circuit temperature. Your max temp of 49c indicates you have low air flow moving through the case, or you live in a hot climate. TMPIN1 is not important. (I believe it's an intermediate step in CPU temp calculation and not meant to be registered for reading.) TMPIN2 is CPU package plus a constant 15c offset. This is to give illusion of normal temperatures since the CPU package temp is not accurate below 40c. CPU Package is the AMD cpu calculated thermal margin, shown as normal temperature reading. It is accurate and reliable under load and above 40c. You want this at or below 55c for long term use. Spikes to 60c is okay but not for long periods. Technically the chip is safe up to 70c. - SpeedFan 4.51 added support for 5 PWM controls on the ITE IT8620E. This chip is a custom one made by ITE for Gigabyte and no datasheet... |

Of all sensors, a lowest AMD "CPU Package", variously labeled for Core is at some offset, as well [unpublished by AMD] a discrepancy for listed at variances between 10-20C, an apparent average of 15 C being a matter of useful interpretation. When I loaded all cores, through software capable of stressing them over distributed encodes, I read a 119 F temperature. Presumably TMPIN2, or the higher, e.g. of Core, AKA (per tester CPU Package), Core being in the low 70's F (ambient TMPIN0). However significantly above AMD's accuracy threshold of 40 C, yet in no sense a precise reflection, for the sensor TMPIN2 then to appear of most practical significance for use as a warning or danger indication. And not Core. (TMPIN0 is effectively useless to me as I don't use a design intent of computer cases anymore. No different than a thermometer inside a clock on the wall, I haven't side-panels to my cases.) |

Well, not perfectly, or more or less vaguely, although with some increasing reliability, as CPU temperatures increase, due to. . . http://www.amd.com/en-us/markets/game/downloads AMD OverDrive (TM) is De TaDa Tool that does. Howso? By an offset from it's maximum temperature, Thermal Max or TCTL_MAX. Which is 70C for "lidded part" or 158F. (Lidded hasn't been yet translated, pictorially, from the included CHM file.) Hmmm... kinda low, 158F, but I'll take what I can get. Yeah, I should be able to do that, ran at something under food warming-plate temps. 82F/28C: readings viz CPUCore Tj Max appears to be set, written in for 176F by the author; 18F allowances for higher than AMD's 70C/158F upper rating. 109F/43C: readings viz Speefan selected, arbitrarily, highest temperature available from 4 readings: 3 off the Gigabyte sensor bus/chipset, one a K-15 CPU "Core" temp;- none particularly make much sense. AMD OverDrive (TM) reports 42C/107F for a Thermal Margin, or 70 - 42C is 28C;- that is what or is near enough to CPUCore. 42C. . . permissibly more, though, or so according to AMD? Would you run your clock higher, cores fuller, stressed to the max, in order to achieve that 42C/107F safety margin? It doesn't jibe. Wait a second. . . I see something, 82F/28C, is also what SpeedFan's K-15 Core reading is (haven't figured what the others, if anything, might mean - 3 sensors ranging from 109F to 91F). It's pretty, anyway - AMD OverDrive;- some virtual memory/CPU clock on-the-fly settings, logging, & etc, besides. Better yet, it's official, over anything else I have yet. I can see I must either have left on TurboBoost, (pretty sure, *thought* I turned it off from the BIOS), or this AMD program gets uppity, overriding it with a fair amount of 400Mhz boosting going on, over the clock baseline multiplier for 3.2Ghz. I just don't know. It's all not quite sinking through into my brainpan yet. It's like trying to do three things at once: walk, talk, and think. Except they're now to be done backwards - AMD style, at an offset. |

wrote: Dahmn Sam - Scratch everything. Basically, with the appropriate BIOS implementation for AMD PileDriver/BullDozer chips, within my FX-series' heat-throttling design, short of seriously going outside of default BIOS settings, it can be run effectively without consequence for heat. Once the CPU sensor exceeds a safety temperature threshold, the clock multiplier and frequency drops down next to nodding off. No hands needed, (proprietary AMD software is optional), it's fundamentally hardwired. Mine drops from 3.3to 1.4Ghz;- potentially drop that another 1.3Ghz and a 100Mhz core speed ought to do for a CPU without a fan. (The subsequent Ryzen build, past a same high-set temperature offset execution, apparently works with much the same technology.) Another scenario would be to set the core multipliers to an anomalous low. Instead of AMD "Cool & Quiet" technology shuffling out programming inactivity -- between unused cores assigned a baseline clock, used cores being a proviso for AMD's Turbo Boost -- would be to set the lowest minimal usage to the baseline core multiplier, simply then to assign to Turbo Boost the highest build-margin feasibly obtainable. Ramping from 800Mhz, lower, much, of course for old, non-gaming software, to and from a stock publicized 4.2Ghz, to 5Ghz, overclocked, as it were, across eight cores. At the speed of light, I suppose, there's little need to stutter. |

Intimate, here, with all them ... right through to the last Barton 2500 and the then first slotted Thunderbird beyond. Hmmm...somewhere along that particular scene, Intel came along swinging with its eyes on AMD. Celeron D for a cost effective shoot-out. My first non-AMD, since an Intel 386/SX. Overclocked like a rubber band, too. Never actually did the Athlon mobile route, although thanks for the reminder. I recall looking at them, among offerings, back then. 2-3Ghz is actually respectable. Unless of course cake and icing are on the menu. I'd updated CPUs for 4-generation of speed advances, both AMD and Intel on same-sockets, until maxed out, through Ebay used CPUs. Every year or so business pulls, updates afforded me. And never paid over $30 a used CPU. All quads for the last two, three generation updates I suspect it was The Golden Age of CPUs, at least pricewise for me. Then came a retail boxed Octal Core for post-Ryzen, $90 sellout pricing. That was my downfall. Two, three months ago I couldn't help myself and bought it. |

(Spread-core gain analysis over a directory of 26Gbytes of audio files;- it's very fast, no more than four, five minutes for returning appropriate gain reduction tables.) -6F meaning: 1) either I'm at 136F, or 2) Core Temp's author, by exceeding AMD's published 158F (18 degrees in addition to derive 176), gives me an additional 18 degrees lower. I'm not sure I'm misreading him, where he mentions AMD "won't publish the specs" for an exact FX-CPU temperature, other than for an allowance of "10-20F" uncertainty. That would place me at 120F, if I use the 18F and his mention for where he's coming up with a C_TH of 176F, when I maxed the CPU cores out. I did turn, as well, off the AMD processor Turbo Boost feature prior to, a day or so ago, loading the CPU down. A BIOS default for TB is 4.2GHz, I had, while running TB, lowered that to no higher than 3.6GHz;- I've never messed with the base clock of 3.2Ghz. I did, however, notice an immediate 10F lower operational temperature, from what it had been with the Turbo Boost enabled. If I'm supposed to not be sure, therefore, maybe it's running "hot" at 120F, which is nice, while not nearer to 140F. Speedfan also runs on the same temperature sensor bus, and will also derive the "offset" reading;- what Speedfan does do, that Core Temp doesn't, is as well provide three additional sensor readings. All temps are linked to the same Gigabyte sensor chipset -- one being ambient case temp, potentially, whereas the other two correlate closely until CPU temperatures rise, for one sensor to follow more closely a higher reading. A latter and higher reading, still, that I'd offhand say seldom exceeds 100F (I should have more closely watched for SpeedFan's upper limit when loading the CPU down today). Or, possibly, I'm not supposed to be exacting about trying to balance the two programs into cumulative certitude. - Cumulative Distribution Function (noun) Statistics - a function whose value is the probability that a corresponding continuous random variable has a value less than or equal to the argument of the function. |

Oh, hell yes, it does. Although a new CPU, say rated for 170F, officially or otherwise (AMD takes a circumlocutious approach to thermal monitoring, at least with this BullDozer/PileDrive), can widely vary. Very. And over chip iterations. I used to, back aways in some day, try and keep a CPU near my golden mean of 120F. Now it's anywhere up to 135F, at before I think to raise my eyebrows, with 125F being closer to a present norm. Yeah, I hear that. It's hot. My MB's onboard VideoChip, ATI/AMD, stock, recently kicked in a driver fault error window: something about an instability issue and that the drivers were being unloaded from the Operating System. Must be an intelligent little sucker to do all of that. I anyway reset the BIOS timing setting for the videochip frequency by a seventh lower and haven't seen hide nor hair of a similar or related instability. No - it's not because the heatwicking in the copper pipes isn't correctly engineered. Those things just don't happen, unless it's a pretty crappy CPU cooler in the first place, in which case you'd know or probably suspect as much. uDie fabrication, over time, where a Mobile Athlon certainly qualifies for related theoretics, will break down due to predominately heat from extended usage. All very involved, I'm sure. The conference rooms of NASA scientists are all abuzz with the implications of satellites nearing the peripherals of space, originally equipped with 486 chips. If it doesn't especially bother you, sure, lower the clock and see how it goes. I would. (Can't offhand say w/voltage - I tend favor stock, also tending to think of +voltage as more critical to a threshold of stability when overclocking. Which I don't although it's very formulaic especially for the gamers.) |
