Some questions from my side, just to help... - You removed the plastic protector from the heatsink base? - The fans on the heatsink are in push pull configuration, not blowing against each other? - Can you share a picture of your case internals? - What thermal paste are you using? - If above...

It just means MSI is slightly underreporting the power under full load, so your 3950x will be allowed to draw a bit more power than stock... Since this is just ~5% you should not worry, there are other cases where up to 50% of underreporting is happening...

Honestly, a custom loop is a complete waste of money for a 3600! Why ??? Just for looks ??? And it has more failure points than a good air cooler or an AIO... I would just go for something like a be quiet! Dark Rock 4 or even cheaper and save your money for other upgrades like a good gaming...

That is indeed your problem... Best thing to do is to upgrade that cooler asap! That is a AMD Wraith Stealth I believe??? Noctua has some great coolers, and myself I'm a big 'fan' of the Bequiet Dark Rock coolers, but even a stock AMD Wraith Prism would do much better. (Depending your budget...

Looks ok... The number is only relevant during a full load like cinebench R20, so there you have ~102% which is perfectly fine... You do however have very high load temperatures for a 3600 at 86°C and your idle temps are ~50°C... For a 3600 I would expect around 70-75°C max for a Cinebench...

Ok, now I understand what you were trying to say... But you cannot change the way the motherboard misreport the power by playing with the offset voltage... The Power Reporting Deviation value needs to be measure at full stock settings, so no manual voltage, no offset voltage, no fixed...

Is this at stock core voltage settings or did you undervolt?

OK, and how did you determine the negative offset voltage 0,0125 V is the lowest you can get? It crashes? Or doesn't boot? Seem a quite low offset voltage... Normally on Ryzen 3000 about 0.05V should be easily feasible. And thats where you get the headroom with PBO...

And now during you see a current value to 100% reported... So perfectly fine... It's about the current value under load, not the minimum, maximum or average values.

LOL... Screenshot is again not valid... As this is taken after the test and not during... Actual figures should represent the system under load, so during the test and not just after it...

Hi Martin, any view on my question I also asked on the Power Reporting Deviation figure while undervolting? Can this affect the Power Reporting Deviation ??? My previous post on this:

Yes, full load figures only...

Is this screenshot taken at full load with a tool like Cinebench R15 or R20??? It states only 40W powerdraw while your max is 60W?

Key is to not manually set the core speed, but let PBO do it's work... Next to that, I would suggest to not use a fixed voltage, but a negative offset voltage, that still lets the motherboard control the voltage, but you just lower it with the offset... Then if you found the sweetspot you can...

That you motherboard reports pulling much more power than it normally would in a full load case... Honestly, your overclock is pushing way too much voltage in an all core load for a 3700x on 7nm... A better way to overclock is to actually undervolt the CPU with a negative offset and then let...

Hi, My Asus Crosshair VII Hero Wifi (running latest bios 3004) with a 3950x is reporting ~75% of Power Reporting Deviation under full load (Cinebench R20), but I also undervolted my 3950x with a negative offset of ~0.825V (undervolt optimized checking with cinebench runs and assuring to still...
