Overclocking Z390

huh....


nope no silver. now that i think of it, that would be mixing metals

Interesting thing I noticed. After I took this thing all apart and and put in a new power supply, my LLC settings seemed to change. On the old PSU, with an LLC level of 6, CPU was at 1.252 under load and 1.261 normally. Now after I changed the PSU, I noticed that Max voltage is still 1.261 but LLC dropped the voltage to 1.217 under load.

I cleared the CMOS and reset my settings and still the same thing. So I had to increase LLC to level 7 and reduce voltage a bit to get 1.243 under load and 1.261 max. Temps seem to be better. It's also hella hot bow in my room that they turned the heat on. ��

Hi,
Not sure @doorules noticed you're using an all aluminum ek kit and posted about the silver coil
What does ek say about it besides use cryocrap lol ?

Everything written on the boxes in all caps says don't mix metals.

Hi,
Yep
Did the kit come with ek concentrate or was that what gunked up the pump ?

Here's good example of why I said stay away from cryocrap it will clog a block quick lol

Yup! This is exactly what was in my loop!

I tore this loop apart 3-4 times flushing this shit out! I thought it was all residue from the rads and tubes.

The last time I cleaned it out it was free of this junk, but I guess the damage was already done.
