Is this normal for a 14900K? It says its not thermal throttling but the number seems low compared to other 2023 numbers.

      that's a desktop-only chip that's supposed to be competing with xeons and threadrippers.

      Its an arctic II 420, it shouldnt be shit so what is going on, does it matter I don't have a GPU inserted as it hasn't arrived yet

    it's not even close to throttling at that temp, you have another 10 degrees to work with.

    turn off the limits and use the asus vroom vroom nuclear reactor option if you want big dick numbers

    How much performance loss / heat increase does only using integrated graphics cause?

      negligible
      igpu only matters when it comes to overclocking ram speed

        thanks anon. Does the asus SP / Cooler points matter?

        I have SP 94 and 189 cooler points

        Sorry as its first time I've spent a large amount of money on a computer so I want to get ti right

          those numbers are mostly placebo based on special asus bullshit.
          the best thing I can recommend is that you go read some stuff on overclocking forums:
          https://www.overclock.net/forums/
          https://old.reddit.com/r/overclocking/
          and the watercooling subreddit
          https://old.reddit.com/r/watercooling/
          and if you don't have one yet, although your max numbers seem fine in hwinfo especially since 3 p-cores turboed to 6ghz, you could look into getting a thermalright or thermal grizzly contact frame.
          the thermalright one is more idiot proof:

          it will limit the cpu bending over time from the heating and cooling process which will keep your cooler's cold plate in optimal contact with the ihs.
          other than that just run the gamut of overclocking/stress testing software until you get the numbers you're happy with.
          only potential issue with the arctic liquid freezer is that the pump may not run fast enough if you juice the cpu too much.

            I have a thermal grizzly contact frame installed, but maybe I should have bought the thermalright one, as I couldn't get it to place nice with the instructions from gamersnexus.

            I think? Its installed properly or would have assumed my temps would be way off and / or it would thermal throttle even on intels power limits / or it wouldn't boot at all

              okay then yeah I wouldn't fiddle with it as my understanding with thermal grizzly's is if you tighten it too tight it will interfere with memory and cause boot issues.

              all you really have left is to figure out how much time you want to spend tuning your system and whether or not you should upgrade to a custom loop over using an aio.

              also go re-enable the remove all limits option for asus multi-core enhancement and see if your aio can handle it

                Thanks for your help anon, I removed the limit option and it throttled both on the 90c limit, and the no limits at all, is the cpu itself whats killing me? As when I'm not doing anything my idle temps are around 28 which ""seems"" very healthy to me (Assumably I didn't fuck the grizzly frame)

                I've downloaded and am running R23 too I'll post the results in a moment

                Your chip is below average but it should score around 2200 in CB R24 and 40000 in CB R23 if you lift all power/current limits

                the aio is probably the limit then and to improve the score is gonna require getting a better aio or building a custom loop.
                the arctics are better for amd than they are for intel.

                Core SP rating is good shit for binning
                Its the MC SP rating that is pseud useless crap

                you're right, got those confused since I only saw the sp phrasing and thought that's what they meant

    Comparing this to other screenshots online mine looks really bad, it didnt thermal throttle throughout either [limit re enabled, I'll turn it off once more, but it throttles when its off]

    Also I'm kind of praying that not using a graphics card has a heavy tax on the thing which causes it to perform worse, but I'm not that optimistic on that

    what's your ambient temp? and your pc case?

    Ran again with all limits off, it throttled a lot and this is where it ended up. Assumably it seems I got bin raped as well
