2700x Vs 5600g

[Kelsi Corsi]

Ive recently made a new build with a 2700x, it's not overclocked, everything (CPU, GPU, RAM) is running at stock speeds. My question is; why does Ryzen Master software show the EDC, whatever that is, at 99-100% at idle? What is EDC, is it dangerously high for my system, can I change it? I've tried google searched on this topic but there's little to no -entry level- explainations. Threads and reddit posts have gone into such extreme details referring to VRM's and other techno jumble I don't quite understand just yet. I'm very new to the enthusiast PC scene, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

From Redstone 3, the Windows Balanced Power Profile now contains the changes that made the Ryzen Balanced Power Profile Unique, but with the added benefit that the processor can now lower voltage and frequency when idle.

noxenvon, I am with you and trying to determine what EDC means. I installed Ryzen Master to see what it says about my system but cannot find EDC, so far. Apparently there are two; CPU and SOC. Which are you looking at? Here are my specifications, please post your equivalent:

EDIT: I've found that changing the Windows power plan options from the Balanced for Ryzen CPU to the standard Windows Balanced plan takes the EDC down between 20-30% at idle, and 95-100% at load though in doing that, my core clocks fluccuate sporadically from 2.2GHz to 4.5GHz

It is quite different from yours and no EDC(CPU). You also have several other quantities that I do not. Somehow you have selected Core 1 and don't seem to be able to do that. I will continue to investigate and let you know what I learn. Thanks and enjoy, John.

I say running at base speeds, but the processor seems to fluccuate randomy. THe stock speed is supposed to be 3.7, but it runs anywhere from 3.9-4.135 without any input from myself... I don't know why it does this, or how to correct it, but it's what came out the box so i'm not touching it xD

noxenvon, I suspect your varying speeds are due to Precision Boost. This can be disabled in the BIOS/UEFI. The processor boost as conditions permit. With EDC pegged, boost will be restricted. Working to getting the 4-pin power cable installed? Enjoy, John.

so i have a ryzan 5 2600 and when im idle im at good edc (cpu) but when im playing or watching a game goes straight to 99 percent i know when u go in to bios i can change pressicion boost sorry for the miss types... so i have a gpu gtx 166o super with 6b i also have 16 gb of ram and i have 500 watt smart series battery for my mother board i have a b450m asrock if there anything i can do change my edc from 90A that be awesome in ryzan master tool i cant use presscion boost over drive in my bios i dont know how change in bios or if it possible

I've since disabled Precision Boost and Core Boost in the BIOS and I'm now running at more comfortable temps (65-70% EDC) at base clock speed of 3.7GHz. While that may be selling the 2700x short of what it's capable of, it was never my intention to overclock on day one. I got the parts with the options to OC in the future, and I've learned a lot more from this experience than I thought!

I bought an AMD Ryzen 5 2600X chipset and MSI x470 Gaming Plus motherboard. The AMD Ryzen Master software showed the EDC at 99-100% too, but disabling Core Performance Boost, Precision Boost Overdrive and Relaxed EDC throttling in the BIOS I'm running at 60% EDC.

My MoBo ASUS Prime X470-Pro, CPU 2700X, PSU 650W. All power cables connected (8x, 4x). 2 fans installed in my case for in and 2 for out air. I'm curious how AMD Ryzen Master software calculate EDC? Is it posible wrong EDC calculation?

Actually the whole Ryzen 2700x system takes 300-400 W (including video-card and etc.). I don't think that a PSU with 650 W is not enough for Ryzen 2700x. My opinion the software works not correctly. If you calculate the power consumption of Ryzen 2700x you will see that 140 A is too much for it. By default Ryzen 2700x has 105 W TDP and average voltage is 1.35 V. If we divide 105 by 1.35 we get 77.77 A. This is average amperage for Ryzen 2700x. But Ryzen Master shows us 140 A. This is nonsense!

Personally I changed the processor power management. In the Balanced power plan options the minmal power condition is set to 5%. The Ryzen CPU power plan is set to 90% on default. It seems to do the trick. I changed the minimum power condition to 40% with reduced EDC to 25-40%.

So, I think a system with this configuration should fly. Yesterday I was using one virtual machine (vmWare) and I barely could move the mouse, neither on the virtual system or physical system, even though cpu utilization on windows was showing 2 % only. Im not a gamer, so i`m not intending to overclock or anything, I just need a System that doesnt freeze.

Check driver (software) for video card. Wrong driver can cause issue like you described. If it not help then pull out as much as possible hardware (RAM sticks, hard drives, etc.) and start check. Install clean Windows and check (don't install any additional software before you test your computer).
