Hello all, please help!
I'm rocking 7950x, Asus X670E E-Gaming, 64gb 5600 cl40, 4090.
Case: NZXT H7 FLOW with 3 intake fans at the front
Cooling: NZXT X73
PSU Be Quite Dark Power Pro 12, 1300w
I'm using my pc for work, 3d modeling and rendering, and sometimes playing CS2 with friends. A few days ago, I decided to update the BIOS and chipset driver because I hadn't done that in the last 3 years. My previous BIOS was, I think, 2007. With the stock setting, I would get a 39000 score in CB23, but I haven't been comfortable with 90+c temps, so I used the PBO Enhancement 80c preset, EXPO Tweaked, and curve optimizer all core -10. With these settings, I was pulling 38500-38900 in CB23.
After the BIOS 3205 update, I can't pass the 34900 score with CB23, it's more in the high 33k and low 34k range. Also I notice that CS2 1% lows, but also avg fps is a lot lower. 1% dropping to 90fps with 1280x960 res and low settings, before it was never below 250 on competitive 5v5.
I tried all possible settings in bios, everything at stock, tried pbo all presets, curve optimizer. Nothing seems to help. And with HWInfo, I notice that my cores are not working at the same speeds as before, 1core boost now is 5.5-5.6GHz, before was constantly 5.7-5.75ghz, all core speed while running cb23 has been 5.2-5.25ghz, now half cores are at 4.8GHz, and half are at 4.6GHz.
I'm willing to send anything if needed.
