![]() ![]() However, the default value of 360 s works fine and I did not have to change it. ![]() This is especially true for large air coolers or water coolers that take a long time to reach their maximum temperature. Basically, the longer the cycle time, the more accurate the result. Cylce time (s): specifies how long the stress tests should run in total at each clock/voltage step.Other modes are still under development, but we can already perform these tests manually if needed. Currently there is only “AVX Light” available, which should be sufficient for most users and usecases. Testing mode: is the type of stress test used to check the CPU for errors during tuning.So let’s take a quick look at all the settings before we start the actual tuning.Īlready known from the previous release may be the first 12 settings, which define the basic parameters for the operation of the CTR and the CPU: Speaking of settings, here are in addition to the known from the previous version some added. From here on, “voltage” refers to the CPU VID (V), unless explicitly described otherwise.Īt the beginning we switch from Settings mode “Default” to “Advanced” – if not already done – to get all settings displayed and to use the full potential of the tool. The difference between these two values is called voltage drop, or Vdroop for short, which we try to keep as minimal as possible with the LLC setting mentioned above. “CPU TEL (V)” and “CPU VID (V)” are both values for voltage, the latter being the voltage that the CPU requests from the VRM, and the former being the voltage that the CPU measures as incoming to itself. The boxes below the CCXs contain telemetry data for the entire CPU. Theoretically, the cores with the highest number in the CPPC tag should be able to achieve the highest clock speeds at a given voltage. The latter is an artificial quality indicator that is measured and stored by AMD during production. Below are the 4 cores per CCX segment, divided into lines, each from left to right with their ID, their currently applied clock, and the CPPC tag. For each CCX, its data is grouped in a box with a light grey top edge, where we can see the CCX ID as the heading and the currently measured temperature to the right. The monitoring segment above is again divided into data of the individual CCXs, above, and data of the entire CPU, below. The breakdown of energy efficiency from old versions has been dropped due to lack of usability. Below that we find the settings and buttons for operating the CTR on the left and a log output on the right. In the upper area we find again the monitoring section, which shows us the current state of our CPU. ![]() The most important tab we will spend most of our time with is “Tuner”, which was still called “Main” from previous versions and which we will switch to in a moment. If you have any doubts or panic now, you can relax and read on first, without doing anything, and ask questions in the forum if necessary. This is normal and the usual canon with any form of overclocking, but for various reasons CTR must always display this warning once at startup. We are always greeted here with the obligatory disclaimer that overclocking the CPU is no longer part of the manufacturer’s specification and thus any damage is not covered by the warranty.
