ROG Benchmarking Tweaks & Tips

[Asryan]

Hey would like some advices.

I ran this bench on my rig but only got 88k

Got an i7 4790k, delid and oc to 4.8 and a 1080 ti.

Use the realtime fix, killed explorer, ran in max performance... Don't know why it's so low.

Is it because i left the native resolution of 3440x1440 ?

When i see that some score are aroud 250k...

I got :
1190marks on xtu
923 on cinebench

thanks

I have followed some of these tips and observed I get my highest scores by leaving everything as is, example: load windows , hwinfo and realbench and leave everything else alone, score 277,676
Same again but stop unnecessary tasks, set rb to realtime and close explorer.exe, score 254,446
So I get lower scores by closing other processes?
I need to figure out what’s happening here, I agree it should boost my score, any ideas?*

Did you monitor temperatures and clock rates during the lower score run? All CPUs have temperature throttling and power limits, and the high core count i9s are especially sensitive. Removing extra load and setting realtime priority might get the CPU working hard enough to be that last straw. If you see high temperatures -- 80 - 100C -- that's likely the cause of throttling. An unexplained drop in clock rate and core voltage may be due to a power limit.

Thanks for that Jab383, will do runs again and observe, I do remember temps were in the 80s but not anywhere near 100.

thnks in advance fa tha help...

ive had tha same comp for like 6 - 7 years & been upgrading my stuff for years but now it comes down to processor chip & ram(allrdy upgraded ram but is maxed out @ 4gb 4slots of one & is 400-600mhz.....??) ive got 2.6ghz dual core & would like ta upgrade ta 3.2ghz quad core..... & i was really hopeing if i upgrade my chip i could upgrade my ram or is that a fix to be had with tha mother board.....?? but i upgraded my graphics card & is sluggish probly cause the ram is too slow.....

What would cause large variations in the Encoding score? On a few runs I've had 250-260K for Encoding but today's was 176K.
