I typically just let everything run stock with a custom fan curve in BIOS.

Ryzen 7 7800X3D, ASUS ROG STRIX B650E-F GAMING WIFI, G.SKILL TRIDENT Z NEO 2x16GB DDR5 DRAM 6000MT/s CL30, AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX, LIAN LI EDGE 1300, Corsair MP600 PRO NH 4TB

Enabled PBO and set all core boost to auto, didnt bother with a custom fan curve as my EK 360 AIO seems to handle everything fine.

Its not just for gaming performance, i'm into tuning for several reasons such as temperatures and i like a quiet computer.

 

As of right now, because I'm always changing things.

7950X on a RoG X670E A Board

 

Curve Optimizer at -10 (was -5)
vCore Negative OFFSET at -0.08v
vSoC at 1.18v
vDDIO 1.18v
vDD&vDDQ back to stock (was 1.3v)
EXPO but changed to CL 30 and tRAS to 56
PBO to enhanced (more aggresive according to ASUS BIOS with Scalar 8X and +200mhz) However max boost clock is about 5850'ish
Custom PPT (Was ECOmode before because i have a 240AIO)
Memory Context Restore to Disabled, so it trains everytime i boot.
Fan profile set in Armoury crate but usually 400-600rpm (140mm Noctua fans)
Pump at 50-80%, well in the winter I can actually go much less like 30-60%

Idle temps at 30-40 (depends, if winter or summer)

Load Temps at 75-85 (depends, if winter or summer)
Gaming temps 65ish

 

STABLE! No crashes for a year. Hope it stays that way.

Wait.. if i start tinkering it will crash obviously, I mean stable with the last known good configs.


Thats it.
