ASUS Rog Strix x870e-e gaming WIFI / 9800X3d low cinebench scores

[SlayingElliott]

As the title suggests I’m seeing low cinebench scores from my 9800X3d. Seems from the reviews the standard scores on R24 are high 1300s and I’m about 200 points off of that. 

I cannot figure out why, the scores I’m showing here are even with a +200mhz overclock , PBO enabled , curve optimizer -15 and motherboard limits enabled.

BIOS is most up to date , temperatures seem normal.

Can anyone tell what’s going on? 

provided pictures of HWID and score. Hopefully someone smarter than me can figure this out.

Appreciated. Temps while running the test are around 73C.

Did you also overclock your RAM? That would also give you more points? Unfortunately, it wasn't visible in your pictures.

Yea I did ? EXPO 1 but I think I figured it out. I set the priority to Cinebench to high and started seeing scores of 1400 which means something in the background is ruining my score.

Im pretty sure it’s the Lian Li L-Connect software for my fans which is a total resource hog. In hindsight I’d never buy their fans again.

That's why most testers do it on a freshly installed Windows without any additional programs. Which of course doesn't show the standard points because some program is always stealing performance.
