did a bios update which always makes me nervous in case of a power loss/brown out

but all good and very impressed with the outcome

hopefully things will get even better next bios update

 

when I first built this PC in October 2019 I ran a couple of benchmarks and was happy with the results cos it beat my old Intel® Core™ i7-3930K  by 1 ½  times faster

my Cinebench R20 score was 1572

After reading a lot of recommendations concerning the X570 motherboard platform, everyone was saying to get the latest bios update from the motherboards website, so I did

 

here are my new results:

 

Cinebench R20 all cores:

Cinebench R20 single core:

here are some reference scores from December 2019:

I'm impressed with the improvement, and looks like there is still room for more

my CPU smashes the single core bench, but looks a bit lacking in multi-threaded test

My Dad used to race formula fords there then went onto support & pit for Damon Hill as a youngster. Marshalled and was also in a big crash that broke both wrists and two ribs, made the papers and then featured in old “Havoc” doccos 

 

Fair old history with that race track back home

doing a refurb on my boss's old PC

when I opened it up...........

(a)   I immediately thought of @Rab and his PC that has cobwebs on the cobwebs with dust on top of the cobwebs that are on top of the cobwebs :crazy:

(b)   an IT professional built this machine (wot a fu@ken mess)

Recently upgraded my PC late last year. Waiting for the next gen of nvidia cards to upgrade my aging 1080.

my 1080 is still pumping

I did notice that it has overclocked itself.........................

I'm so old now I really cant remember overclocking it manually, maybe I did, maybe I didn't, dunno

 

 

standard clock is 1633 MHz and boost is 1722 MHz,      but seen here running Metro Exodus, boost is 1936 MHz!!!!!!
