Just updated to bios 1603 and wanted to try out the new CPUs. Ordered a 9800X from SL @ 4.9. I have a hefty Uncore offset for my current memory. I question if this is needed with the new chip. Any ideas?
Is that by XMP?
I dont worry much about the ram. Ive always got good sticks that can take 1.5V no worries and run them at the 1.35
Hows that chip doing? Im in the middle of installing everything in a new case with a new 9940X. Ran it on a box top for a few days getting it all configured and got 4.6 very easy and ran a few rounds of real bench at 4.7 before shutting it down to get it in the case with some decent cooling.

4.8 on a 7900x was a golden chip. Less than 10% could obtain that. I paid for mine to get to 5GHz on water at 1.225 but it runs too hot.*
Any particular reason you stayed with the same chip albeit a little more cache? Could be you lost the lottery. Ive not spent much time with my new 9940X, just in a box top with a 280 rad and it went to 4.6 on all cores with ease. Pretty much just set it to sync all cores, XMP and adaptive to 1.2V then unlimited power and LLC to 3. Ran realbemch on a loop for about an hour no issues. I’d be happy with 14 cores at 4.5 but think I’m going to get at least 4.7 if not 4.8. When I’m done with the refresh rebuild I’ll have 2x 480 rads, a 280 rad and a 360 rad for cooling. I don’t think I can do much better without going past that with a chiller or even more extreme. *
