any good 5950x BIOS setting
Computer Type: Desktop
GPU: Zotac 5070
CPU: RYZEN 9 5950X
Motherboard: ASUS TUF PRO GAMING
BIOS Version: 4631
RAM: 16GB ADATA DDR4 3200MHZ CL16
PSU: Antec NeoEco Gold 550W
Case: Antec case
Operating System & Version: WINDOWS 10 PRO 19045
GPU Drivers: GEFORCE GAME READY DRIVER - WHQL Driver Version: 596.36
Chipset Drivers: AMD B550 CHIPSET DRIVERS VERSION 8.02.18.557
Background Applications: DISCORD, FIREFOX
Description of Original Problem: Good BIOS setting to make the idle power to ~30W
Troubleshooting: I found this CPU is quite hot comparing with my old CPU 3600
After several week of usage, i end up with this bios setting, my aim is to keep cpu run fast while keeping the power consumption low.
Power Plan: Balanced
PBO
thermal throttle limit: 85C
PPT: 105W (Very critical)
TDC: 80A
EDC: 105A
Boost Override CPU: -250Mhz (Very critical)
PBO Scalar: Auto / 1
AMD CBS
Global C-state Control: Enable (Very critical)
Power Supply Idle Control: Low Current Idle (Very critical)
This way if the PC is really idle (closing all program), ryzen master show CPU power ~ 18W
But this cannot be achieved normally, just some background program it would use around 40-50W
default PBO is too aggressive boosting the clock / waking up the core, this is both good and bad at the same time
What is your setting? Other cpu setting are welcome. How to tell PBO more lazy ? 🤣
