Beast indeed
Very impressive cinebench, my workstation PC is only 4773 and it takes 5hours to do an OPN . The power consumption seems higher than Dave's 3900X though but maybe different clock speeds/config or more likely I'm not remembering his watts right.

Nice looking numbers unsmurf. My 3900X is running at stock settings. I've not tweaked anything, although I like the idea of dropping the voltages if I can. My Cinebench figures are 7053 / 510, and my CPU-Z figures are 8128 / 532, so I'm definitely getting better single-core numbers than you are.

Thanks for the voltage info. I might have a go at some point, although the last time I tried tweaking something (the SNR margin on my broadband line) I was delighted (for about 3 weeks), having carefully pushed it from 64mbps up to 74mbps, right until the point where DLM turned on interleaving it dropped to 55mbps and doubled the latency! I had to fess up to my ISP (Zen, fortunately) to request a line reset from OpenReach.

Worth noting that my multi-threaded benchmark scores are virtually identical to yours, and the only thing I've done is installed the AMD power plan for Windows 10. I personally reckon (with no evidence to back this up) that these Ryzen processors do a pretty good job of optimising themselves

Thanks for the info, you are right the scores are almost the same only real difference i can see is the cpu temp, mine is 70 vs 82 for yours (both are well inside the acceptable temps) and could be down to a number of things anyway.
Yeah i agree they are pretty well optimised by default as long as your using the latest chipset drivers, they did have a few glitches with some of the early drivers but they seem to be fixed now. I do like to tinker thou
I've got the AMD power plans and am using the AMD high performance one, i might do a bit more research in to them to see what changes between them.

About 9 years back, i had a friend that was an openreach engineer and gave me access to the engineers portal (before they locked it down to there devices only and monitored who did what ) and i could change profiles, reset lines and run fault tests at will which came in very handy when i was doing home customer jobs, you'd be surprised how many people try and tweak there internet and break it or say they never touched it, it just broke but when you look its had been changed. now its almost impossible to adjust on the client side without the system detecting it and auto adjusting down.

Excellent Thargor, I'll have my car warmed up and ready to race whenever you feel up to trying it.

Have you decided what software to use?

Here is my take on the best sim software.

If you want to be a pro sim racer, get Assetto Corsa Competizione and the international GT3 extension. There will be a British GT extension released soon which will include all the circuits and cars from the British GT Calendar, including Oulton Park.

If you just want to race with friends and try out european cars/race cars, get Assetto Corsa Ultimate. British cars are poorly represented though.

If you want to try many circuits and older classic cars and classic racing cars, get Project Cars 2, with a view of upgrading to Project cars 3 in a year or so.

There are online sims such as iRacing.com which have monthly subscriptions instead of buying the software outright, but it can get expensive.

Nothing stopping you from buying all the software or combination if you wish.
I've got Projects cars 2 which I mainly drive for the classic cars, and both the Assetto Corsa's.
