    Everything sorted out as mentioned by you. I got to the splash screen, I agree, but then nothing is happening. But I'm fine with it until CTR functions well ;)

    Extreme will keep all VRM chips ON, more heat, but better electric signal...

    What about "Standard", like if "Optimized" is an equal option to it or people should go for one of the value under "Manual"..?

    I have a R5 3600 Bronze sample. The very best OC I can do in CTR is 4075 / 4000 in CCX1/2. The very best I can achieve with just Ryzen Master is 4175 / 4150. So eh-meh.

    (FIXED by enabling SMT in BIOS) - Bug Report for CTR v1.0 Beta 3:

    Installed on:

    MSI X370 Krait Gaming Mobo Firmware: 1JR - AMD AGESA Combo-AM4 1.0.0.4
    Ryzen 5 3600

    Nature of bug
    Application fails to run.

    I'm very excited to try this program out. Thanks for the hard work into its design guys.
    And shout for any more information needed for above beta bug, always happy to help :D

    Edit#1: Other posts seem to mention same problem #269, #159, #54, #22, 31, 7


    Edit#2: I double checked bios settings and realized that I had disabled both SVM and SMT. But disabling SMT also disables S3. Anyways, enabling SMT fixed my problem.

    It starts without the GUI ; as part of the inner workings of the clocktuner after the start "button" is pressed along with P95 and CB R20.

    Holy cat, how low does the ctr diagnostic undervolt the cpu? Im at 862mv right now!

    Hmmmm....running b3? I turn off the option, reboot, the program does not run and all my settings return to how I had set them previously before CTR. If I run the program again, turn the option back on and reboot, the program runs automatically minimized (the systray icon is hard to see) and my original profile is enforced. That should be happening for you, I'm sure.

    I changed my profile--increasing CCX 1 & 2 by 100Mhz and CCX 3& 4 by 50Mhz, and increased power to 1400mV--runs pretty much everything faster than stock while using less voltage than stock--which often hits 1500mV at stock. Getting scores like 7668 in Cinebench 20--> 300 points higher than Cinebench 20 runs at my normal stock CPU settings of PBO scaler x4 while consuming 1500mv.

    If I edit my profile and then hit apply, the change is not applied to my CPU until I reboot, I assume--as that the profile is loaded at boot with the OS if that option is turned on.

    I did some reboots, and maybe I was just a little bit impatient. Once the system tray icon appears you still have to wait a bit for the profile to load, but then it happens.

    Regarding the change apply - if you restart CTR it will load the settings of the modified profile without rebooting. At least for me it does :)

    Be sure to double check if you do not suffer any performance lost while undervolting that much.

    hi
    with ctr its expected to loose single core speed?

    The program works great! Got my 3700x running less voltage than my original OC with slightly higher clocks. The two things I would suggest is 1) being able to start minimized in a way that the program isn't in my task bar. When I boot my system it is in my tray (i get the notification that its minimized) but it is also in my task bar and I have to click on it and minimize it so its not in the way. 2) the program disables the tuning if the pc goes to sleep, so after the system wakes up it reverts to the ryzen auto clocks and voltages that the motherboard instructs. Once these minor things are fixed I would be totally satisfied with the program. Great program still tho! I applied the overclock to my system (CCX0 4.25GHz and CCX1 4.2GHz @ 1.25V) in bios and used OCCT to test for errors and stability. So far everything is stable, runs cooler than stock, and CR20 MT are way higher (ST is only a few points down, negligible in games maybe a 1-2 FPS drop). Thank you 1usmus!

    That depends on the quality of the processor you got there.
    It can happen that you manage to overclock all cores to more than your processors rated boost clock - then you could also got an increase in single threaded performance.
    Other than that, multithreaded performance raise is not the only gain, lower constant voltage could realize a much more stable system and performance in gaming - according to my experience.

    STRIX 2080 TI OC WH
    After completing all stress tests CTR attempts to run Cinebench but I get a "TDC limit reached! 118A OC terminated!"
    Why does CTR auto set my TDC limit to only 115A but in Ryzen Master the limit is upwards of 500A. Can I safely increase the limit on CTR?
    Thanks.

    This cant be functioning correctly, right? It undervolts even further then eventually CTR crashes and I lose the results...
