Hello, is there any way you can post how you set up the BIOS for the 5950x? Like what was changed from default settings?
I'm having issues hitting the scores you're hitting with the 5950x and x570 Godlike with DDR-4-4000MHz Ballistix (18CL).
I've tried everything I can think of but I still end up around 10% lower in performance compared to your same setup. I have tried the Support BIOS and the Beta BIOS and neither changed a thing for my performance.
I really hope this isn't just crappy retail chips versus hand-picked chips for reviewers, because 10% difference is enough for me to flip the chip on Ebay and return the new build components. Things were running much more stable on my 10700k and it isn't too late to just switch back and make some money on the 5950x...
Why no 4k benchmarks
For 10% ?
Why did you even bother switching from the 10700k which sounds like a recent build?
And are you using the same motherboard they are?
I take it back. I am now getting terrible multi-core scores in Cinebench as well..... (8700 mark). This is super disappointing.
Now it is down at 5k!!! This sucks.
Are you using the High performance power profile and not balanced?
Alas, yet another noob who doesn’t comprehend “CPU bound” vs “GPU bound”...The gaming benchmarks are less than worthless. Nobody buys the top of the line CPU and GPU and uses a 1080p monitor. Comprende? 1440p and 2160p please.
Was it actually running at 4000Mhz? Perhaps BIOS needs to be manually OC’d to get it to use that setting?Anyone else with the same issue: It is likely a memory issue. I swapped out my 4000 MHz ballistics and put in 3600Mhz ballistics and my cpu score jumped on Time Spy to 13529 without any PBO or OC on the CPU. Bummer. The memory was like $450 for two sticks. Back to the store it goes. I had two sets here and was going to run all four, but apparently the 5950x or x570 have issues with both sets (so likely just incompatible...).
Thankfully, I have two setups to switch stuff out like that, but it is a little ridiculous they advertised 4000Mhz as the sweet spot, but it is the sweet spot for bad performance in this case... lol

Ahhh... lousy BIOS... Hopefully AMD will address that shortly....It was running at 4000MHz tied to the fabric clock at 2000MHz. It didn't crash, but it definitely wasn't working correctly. I had some runs where the memory seemed to get worse and worse. I had 3DMark CPU scores going as low as 4.5k when playing around with it.
I am reading now that 3600MHz is recommended for now until mobo bios updates occur to fix 4000MHz issues, but even then not everyone will be able to hit the 2000MHz fabric clock speeds. To be safe, I ordered 3800MHz memory, assuming I likely did not win the lottery on the CPU I have here.
