![]() Now the cpu (in idle state), has a very low watt usage (0-5 watt), and with MCE ON, can blast 4.3 - 4.5ghz continuesly, when the cpu is stress tested. I wasn't crazy about that, and as said, enabled MCE + VID. So with SVID ON, the cpu would throttle and lower it's volt and watt consumption to low value (65 watt, 3.8ghz). SVID is power saving stuff on the cpu, which makes the cpu throttle it's watt to about 65watt (TDP). But after a lot of fooling around in the BIOS' AI settings, I tried to enable MCE + having SVID enabled. I've heard much about disabling Asus multicore enhancement (MCE), as it was bad for the performance/stability. Performance tip, I found out, that the cpu would throttle the speed from 4.3ghz to 3.8ghz, when SVID was ON, and Asus MCE was OFF. I can quickly sum up what I bought and is using for my DAW setup: If not, I know now, that there is more BIOS settings that might solve DPC latency problems, if there is any. As I see, it is best to have it on, if playback is smooth. At first, I'll try everything / Cubase ASIO performance with C-states ON. But the media player might not use the Raydat hardware directly, which might lead into lower Latency performance problems.īut nice to know from you, that it is save to run the cpu without C-states enabled. It's doesn't play smooth with Windows Media layer on windows 10, as I hear small clicks/noises in the audio path at 32 samples. Then I'll make some extra ASIO performance test with my RayDat I/O card, seeing if it plays smoothly at a 32 samples ASIO Buffer. I'm using Cubase v9.5, and is almost ready to start installation of all my software. I'm not finished yet with the software installation on my DAW partition. Thank you DAW PLUS, for taking the time to replay back to me, nice of you I just don't know about the voltage on the cpu, if it is too much?The temps would tell the story, but if it's the default I wouldn't worry. But you can really lower the DPC latency a lot. I read somewhere else, in n older topic, that on newer DAW system, C-states shouldn't be touched, and be ON. I didn't touch speedstep or any other cpu power saving feature. the 0-7 watt the cpu used with C-states ON.īefore disabling it, it was low with a few peaks at 150 microseconds, but stayed in the 50-70's microseconds.īut disabling C-states really helped a lot here. The downside is, that the voltage on the cpu is raised to about 1.25 volt, and by that the watt consumption is raised to about 15-20 watt vs. So it really helped at lot disabling C-status. It was down to about 30 or something, very low. ![]() ![]() Which resulted in my DPC latency was lowered to nearly nothing. On my old Q6600 computer, it was not possible to fiddle with the cpu's power saving.īut I just build myself a new i7 8700 (non k) DAW/gaming setup, and tried to disable the "C-states" setting in BIOS. ![]()
