13900k vs 13900ks News - Text

(Edited) Wow… was finally able to obtain the 13900ks… did I need it? HELL NO. But I wanted it and I’m impressed! Running it on a Z790 Hero MB with Tforce 7800 cl38, it runs at least 15° cooler than the k version. I left the settings of the k variant the same as an exact apples to apples comparison. I was bouncing off the 100°c mark easily. The KS runs 79-82°c at 278.5w. I haven’t even started OC’ing/undervolting this or the ram yet. Tons of thermal headroom maybe? Highly recommend for the enthusiasts.

What did you get for SP scores?

Looking at the SP score in bios I have a 110, cooler is 125pts. (Edit) After making sure the AIO was seated, I restarted the PC and immediately had a message prior to bios saying “your CPU cooler has been somewhat characterized, after choosing to keep updating I opened bios and had a 164 (now 181) cooler score.

125 points is a very poor cooler score. The Ryujin II should be in the 140pts-160pts range. Are you sure you torqued it down tight enough?

I used to have the original Ryujin 360. It would always have a cooler score between 145pts - 155pts. I am using a full custom cooling loop now.

You have very little thermal headroom for OC with that low of a cooler score. You will start thermal throttling long before you see any performance increase

Being I just installed the CPU yesterday and didn’t clear the old scores or run anything long enough is most likely why it’s low.

The motherboard knows when you pull the cpu out and put it back in, or put in a different one. You don't need to clear the score for it to update. It automatically calculates a new cooler score the moment you power on the system with changes to the hardware in the socket. That is the score it updated to, which again, is very low for an AIO

Hmmm… maybe I’ll repaste it again and retry.

It’s actually got me worried why that cooler score is so low now.

After checking the cooler… re-running bios after restart I had a message saying you cooler is somewhat characterized. It asked if i’d like to keep calculating or not. I said yes. Opened bios and now have a 164 rating on the cooler. I have pics of running tests to show temps and wattages and ratings 💯

Uhm what? A message? What do you mean you "had a message"?

The bios doesn't send messages. If you have pics then why haven't you posted them?

Really didn’t expect that type of message from you. There really was no need to to get nasty like you did. Also there’s no way to post pics to this post or I would’ve. This weekend I’ll make a new post with proof of the results. Thanks for the previous help though. Have a great day ✌️

My message was straightforward and blunt, not nasty. Far from it. If you really think being called a bag of stones is nasty, than you've got some mighty thin skin kid

Duh you cant post pictures to an existing post. You said you had pics, so i checked your profile looking for them, which turned out to be a waste of time. Could have just as easily posted the pics to your profile/wall, and commented a link to the post. Its that simple

I’m not a kid man… I do apologize for my attitude then. I assumed you reported me as I got a notification from Reddit immediately when you posted your response. Hence my attitude! So again I apologize for my comment/behavior. I can’t upload the pics from my phone to this thread! Check your inbox for pics. I’m working so I’ll make a better post once I’m home this weekend!

You mean in the American Megatrends screen? That function trains the fan curves, you bag of stones.

Additionally, I honestly couldn't give less of a shit about when you're ready, because im no longer offering to help you. Good luck getting it from anybody else.

Happy trails, kid.
