what's going on everyone and welcome to the Rabid Mining YouTube channel and today we're going to be
checking out some hash rates on XMR with the ryzen 9 7950x now I haven't really done anything yet I
just threw in some quick all-core overclocks put the voltage down to about 97.97 or so and then I
want to see if it at least run or something and it has been we're rocking about 20.5 kilohash
which actually isn't too bad here we look down we can actually see power consumption is about 170
to 171 Watts that is complete system that's your CPU motherboard power supply SSD everything that
is running keyboard most everything that's plugged in total power draw is 170 watts and we're running
at about 50 to 51 degrees so you know mid 50s to the high 50s most likely through most of this but
yeah so far temperatures are looking good we're at 4.5 gigahertz at 0.974 volts so I'm going to
actually do some tweaking now I'm going to look for some high hash rates see what kind of numbers
we can get without getting too hot and lighting a fire and then we're going to look for some nice
efficient settings so stay tuned let's check it out I do want to point out one thing some of you
guys may ask the question if you haven't figured it out yet is how are you getting ryzen Master to
work with your 7950x or 7000 series in general so what you got to do is download the latest version
obviously but if you try to install it it will somehow tell you for some odd reason that you
already have a newer version when you don't so you actually have to uninstall the previous version
you have and then just install the latest version and it will detect your ryzen 7000 series CPUs
all right guys so I did up it a bit more we're at 64 degrees we're hashing at about 22 125 it
just went up I did a little bit of numbers here at 22 115 we're rocking one point one point one
on the voltage now I'm not doing any tweak and I'm just trying to go for some hash rates here
but as it sits right now at about 217 watts and 22 115 hashes that is about a hash to Watt ratio of
101.91 okay guys so I'm gonna use this for the high so for some quick settings here right off
the start I'm just going to minimize this so I'm sitting at 5.3 all core overclock at 1.25
volts we're at 90 degrees uh at the temperature as for power we're hanging out around the 295 to 296
range at the wall there for everything and then for our hash rates here we're hanging out at 22
613 for our Peak here I went with numbers when I was doing them it was 22 609 it looks like we just
got some new ones so that works out to be 76.64 to Watt ratio now I was up to 5.4 gigahertz at 1.26
volts it was using about 309 watts and I did hit 22 785 but it was becoming very unstable and as
I added a bit more voltage to like 1.261 and 1.265 it then wanted to start blue screen and everything
so I went down to this one 5.3 and I'm going to call this my high now I imagine we can still get
higher but it may take some bios upgrades it may take some more tweaking of the RAM and whatnot but
I'm just going to roll with this and then you know in a couple months time maybe things get tweaked
out and worked out we don't have official AMD chipset drivers or anything yet for these as well
so that may help out but initially right now early testing uh this is my P cash right here and we're
gonna settle in at I guess now 20 2671 at 296 to 97 Watts or so in that range roughly okay so
we're in the Bios now I have the exact same ryzen Master setting saved up in Windows so when we get
back there we'll try it again but I am going to remove the Expo one so overclock in your ramp
because usually in previous videos and with the 3000 Series 5000 series we do find that you get
a higher hash to Watt ratio not using this XMP or in this case Expo one profile you do gain hashes
but it uses more power than what it's worth so I usually always mine with this disabled but for
testing purposes we're going to be using both I'll also maybe try one stick as well some algorithms
do not matter if you have dual Channel or single channel one stick or two sticks type of operation
on them like Ghost Rider so but random Max does benefit from Dual Channel Ram so we're going to
be testing this out in this video but right now XMP profile or Expo in this case is now shut off
we're going to reboot back into Windows exact same settings and see if we increased our hash to Watt
Ratio or not and how much hash rate we actually lose okay so we are at the exact same settings
as previously except no Expo XMP profile and we're hanging out at about 20 486 hashes at around 265
Watts at the wall and this did increase our hash to Watt ratio of 77.3 up from 76.64 at the same
settings our temperature is 83 C so that is down from 90 degrees so we did see an efficiency in
temperature drop here in efficiency upwards so now I'm going to try and find a nice high hash to Watt
ratio setting here that we can utilize for XMR okay guys so I do have uh the Expo turned off when
we're sitting at 0.95 volts now I haven't really done tweaking for the most efficient overclocks
yet but I went back to an older previous video because I wanted to compare to see is this CPU
more efficient in reality compared to a 3900x and I found my old video of testing ramout on XMR and
I got about 110 Watts at the wall on a 3900x I was doing about 11 747 hashes for a hash to Watt ratio
of 106.79 so the number we do have to beat here is 106.79 so with these current settings right now
I'm going to bring up our hash rates here and it's looking like we're doing about uh 18 276
hashes at the high here the power is hanging out around 144 Watts or so again we're at 4.2 at 0.95
volts uh 48.1 degrees Celsius and this is actually a hash to Watt ratio of 126.91 so we are way above
efficiency levels of a 3900x with these current settings on XMR so this is a huge improvement over
a previous gen of the 3000 Series okay guys so I think I did find a pretty nice setting here for
efficiency on XMR and you can see I'm an all core overclock of 4.05 so four and a half I guess just
shy of 4.1 gigahertz here we're sitting at 0.9 volts and we're going to come into our hash rate
we're sitting 45 degrees Celsius nice and cool temperatures here and now we're hashing away at
about 19 165 hashes Expo one is turned on so after this I'm going to turn it off and we'll probably
see increased efficiency numbers but right now at 19 165 Watts or hashes at 149 Watts that is a
hash to Watt ratio of 128.62 the highest setting we have found yet and now I'm going to remove
Expo profile here and we're going to see if we increase that efficiency a little bit more all
right guys so here we are with some pretty high efficient numbers so we're sitting currently at
43 degrees on the CPU temperature again we're overclocked to 4.05 and our vaults is hanging
out at 0.9 as for the hash rates we're going to bring that up and we're hanging in at about 17
887 hashes 131 watts is being used at the wall right now uh and that is a hashed watt ratio of
136.54 wow this thing is destroying the 3900x in terms of efficiencies and hash to Watt ratios this
is amazing I don't believe I am at four gigahash and only 0.9 volts this thing is definitely
tweaked for efficiency and it's performing just as well this thing is an amazing CPU and
it's definitely a great upgrade especially once motherboard prices and stuff start coming down I
think it'll be a really good buy but that may take some time alright guys so to conclude this whole
video I put some charts together because some people like seeing charts instead of looking at
all the hash rates and everything I did but for the 7950x hashtawad efficiencies of XMR higher
is better in this case and we can see the higher you go up on your voltages and your clock speeds
you are using more power which means a lower hash to Watt ratio in this case it's almost 50 percent
less while cranking that up now if you have free Power you don't care as much about this but people
like myself I do care about running efficiently and we can see turning everything off as well
as XMP profiles or Expo in this case with AMD overclocking your RAM leads to less efficiencies
as well so in the same order here this is your hash rates and depending where you are higher is
better but lower is more efficient but at the high here we did hit 22 609 hashes and then without XMP
profile we did hit 20 486 with 5.3 gigahertz and 1.35 volts that seemed to be nice and stable and
then we have our efficient settings here 19165 with XM MP profile on at 4.05 gigahertz and 0.9
volts and then without XMP profile we're hanging out at 17 887 hashes okay and now for our power
consumptions and you can kind of see what's going on here look at our high to the low in this case
I would say more efficiency is better lower is better in this case you have free Power higher
doesn't matter to you but we're using over double the power from our low to the high in this case
and we're only getting an extra four to five thousand hashes out of XMR you can see we're
running efficient greatly will save on your power bill instead of overclocking the crap
out of your CPUs like a lot of people like to do it's not about the hash rate it's about that
hash to Watt ratio all right guys so last but not least we do have our CPU temperatures and
I know a lot of people were telling me it's okay if you hit 95 degrees maybe if you hit 100 degrees
90 degrees these are okay numbers and right off the bat I was like you know I'm not going to hit
these numbers or at least expect to and here I am through my testing we can see at the absolute
high of here when I was peaking with an all core overclock we did hit 90 degrees which is still
below the 95 that we see through all the gaming stuff going on out there remember we're mining
guys uh we're doing different things here so with the XMP profile off we actually lost a little bit
at 83 degrees and then when we're running efficient here XMP on 45 degrees on the CPU
that's it and then running without XMP 43 degrees these things are cold these things are quiet these
things are extremely efficient CPUs if you tweak it the proper way okay guys so based on my most
efficient settings test I punched went over to my robinmining.com here CPU mining calculator and
we're at 17 887 hashes on random X for 131 Watts I do have 11 Cent kilowatt hour in USD it's 15
cents Canadian and we're actually green on Monero right now eight cents it's not very much 42 cents
before power but XMR is usually in the red and because this thing does have such high efficiency
you're actually able to pay for your power bill and maintain some extra XMR to hold for a future
pump so I found that very interesting here that we're actually profitable mining something like
XMR I can't wait to be testing some other coins here soon alright guys so thank you for coming
out and checking out this video I'm in love with this CPU but if you did miss my build
video go and check it out but I am using an x670 Aurorus Master motherboard we got the be quiet
dark Brock Pro 4 and then we got the dark Pro 12 1200 watt titanium rated power supply all
right guys I know you guys are anticipating the next few videos I will be checking out
Ghost Rider algorithm I will be checking out astrobot I will be checking out puffer fish
and a few other ones so stay tuned and hit that subscribe button thanks for watching and Rabid Out
