hey guys what’s your highest temp and preferred when overclocking?

#

mine usually stays at 50-60

wild glacier Jan 2, 2020, 7:54 PM

#

Well with a 2200g is your build budget?

#

I mean do you have a gpu

#

it all depends on how much you want to spend

#

if at all

#

The cooler will transfer over to any new AMD build on the AM4 socket

wild glacier Jan 2, 2020, 7:56 PM

oh I didn't know if they meant buy a new cpu for the cooler

#

any cooler that works on am4 will work for you

quick rose Jan 2, 2020, 7:57 PM

#

IMO, though, a new CPU wouldnt be a bad idea

#

the 2200G is a litle on the low end.

#

For $100-150 you can really improve witha new processor

You could pick up a 2700x which already has a pretty good cooler and it's a nice cpu

proven canopy Jan 4, 2020, 3:20 AM

I wouldn't stress too much about not having OC headroom on core.
Idk about 2070's but try in 15MHz increments. The cooler your card runs, the faster the boost algorithm will allow it to OC itself.

dull ginkgo Jan 4, 2020, 3:30 AM

I'll continue to try to slowly push mem

I think last time I was testing I got to around 200 and left a bit of headroom, I'll do it again tho

Ok guys i need some recommendations

#

I have a Ryzen 5 2600 and GTX 1660 powered by a Corsair VS450 450W

#

The CPU and GPU draws something between 260-280W as I remenber

#

Am I capable of tuning things up a bit?

#

?

reef folio Jan 4, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

Probably a bit. I mean if you do it incrementally, each time running benchmarks to get them both at 100% load, you wont go wrong. If you get to a point it shuts down/bugs out due to a lack of power, then nothing is damaged and youll be able to restart into the bios to tune it down fine as it only crashes at high load.

#

450 is not much but a bit of room. I OCed my very inefficient 4690k like a mofo on a 450W.

Perfectly valid, just a bit slower sometimes to catch trfc/trefi errors.

well my answer is 3200

#

3600 was unresponsive and i had to give the BIOS a kick in the pants by resetting a few times to get my PC back

#

but i'm pretty confident after running memtest86+ for about 12 hours it's solid

#

so maybe i don't need to run anything else unless i notice instability

#

i could likely squeeze a little bit more out of it

but i think i'm fine here

looking forward to getting my 32GB of 3200 rated RAM and pushing it possibly to 3600 though, that would be nice

Recently I upgraded from an AMD FX-8350 to the i5-9600KF (huge difference) and managed to get a stable 5.0GHz overclock at only 1.320 Vcore. I know it's stable because I've tested this with Cinabench, CPU-Z's stress tests, and played some intensive games. On my old FX-8350 CPU, I had a good 5.0GHz overclock but it required at least 1.5 Vcore or higher to make it stable (that thing ran hot). Considering the i5-9600KF is a 2019 CPU, is it normal for it to have such a low Vcore? I'm not used to this kind of power after having my FX-8350 since 2012. Haha

#

The lowest Vcore I recorded on the i5 [so far] was 1.2950 at 5.0GHz.

Pascal/Turing cards are limited all by their manufacturer vbios power limit, cooling headroom, and then finally, rely on the user to config it all to makke the most of the card.

#

Well - TBH - cheat sheet is -
Get MSI after burner, max out power and voltage sliders, enable doing so in settings if needed.

I was thinking about that, but I didn't want to fry my laptop

proven canopy Jan 9, 2020, 3:38 PM

#

This is 90% of "best " - to get the last bits max out the fans, then tune the voltage/frequecy curve such that you're able to run as fast as possible without crashing due to not enough voltage and too uch heat

#

In general - I wouldn't expect to get any meaningful gains unless you had something very wrong to begin with

Pbo works fine if you go back to a pre zen 2 bios. It was locked out on zen 2 bios.

#

They dont officially support pbo. Only zen 2 and threadripper 2000 officially support it. AMD allowed motherboard manufacturers to implement it on ryzen 2000, but they locked it out in the agesa for zen 2. Only option is to roll back to older bios or do without. Hopefully they will put it back in future agesa.

Hey guys, first time poster here.
Currently have a R7 2700 non-x @ 3.2Ghz - I was attempting to OC to 4.1Ghz, but couldn't get the voltage right, I was able to get 3.8Ghz with 1.3v (can't remember exactly). But could never get a Cinebench off with anything over it.
Have just switched out my ASRock B450 Pro 4 to a MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC as a few posts online stated the ASRock board was poo for OCing.
Happy to say, I'm now running @ 4.1GHz, and can finish Cinebench tests! Best score so far is 4066 with a max temp of about 73 deg. celcius.
My question is though.. I didn't have to set a voltage for the OC, is this due to the board automatically managing the voltage? Or was i just lucky that it run at whatever it was set as?

dull ginkgo Jan 18, 2020, 2:14 PM

I ask because OC headroom varies widely between various 2666mhz or 3000mhz or any xxxxMHz kits.

That’s not what I really want though. Sorry if I expressed myself unclearly. All I would like is to run ANY 8x2 kit at 3000Mhz, I don’t care what brand it is or whatsoever

foudn this "The safe voltage you should run is no more than 1.4v with a conservative Load Line. 1.35v with an aggressive load line"

boreal jungle Jan 21, 2020, 9:37 PM

As long as your CPU isn't going above 70C at 1.35v, that's completely fine.

#

I wouldn't go any higher than 1.35v.

#

When you're overclocking a Ryzen CPU that high, it's good to be around 1.35-1.37v, depending. But in your case, if 1.35v works, stick to it.

I got my 2700 to about 4.175ghz at 1.375v

2700 or 2700x?

Just a 2700. But I forgot the specific name of my cooler (got it about a year 1/2 ago) but it’s a single fan - liquid cooled - cooler master

All cpus are different, your mileage may vary

latent wolf Jan 27, 2020, 5:32 AM

#

Best Bet is to Not Overclock Over 10-15 percent of the Max Frequency when Using a Stock Air Cooler. With Liquid Cooling You can go as High as 20%. Anything more than that and you are asking for trouble.

jovial maple Jan 27, 2020, 11:44 AM

My 2600 is at 4.1 ghz

cl18 tho

actually 19. These sticks are about 3 years old

dull ginkgo Jan 29, 2020, 3:44 AM

you cant exactly compare 3000g to higher end consumer hardware

Oh wow it is 19

19-33-33-48

manic helm Jan 29, 2020, 3:44 AM

#

yup there were no tight timing kits at that speed when i bought them

dull ginkgo Jan 29, 2020, 3:45 AM

#

you think you could get it to like 3600mhz cl16?

#

lower freq tighter timings

manic helm Jan 29, 2020, 3:50 AM

#

not super tight timings, but I think I had it running in the past at 3600 16-18-18

#

for tonight I am just going to stick it in my x470 gaming 7 and play around with it with my rx480 and some Aorus 3200mhz ram. Tomorrow after I flash my b450 board I will put it in there and play with the integrated vega a bit. Might run some benches and compare it to my pentium which is also 2c 4t.

#

The integrated graphics on the pentium saw a big jump in performance with the faster ram, which is to be expected. It wouldn't hit 4000mhz, but it did 3800.

#

but its been a few years since I did any benchmarks with it

manic helm Jan 29, 2020, 4:35 AM

#

Preliminary quick testing of the 3000g will get into windows at 4.3ghz. it hangs at 4.4 before loading windows

#

4.3 is not stable

manic helm Jan 29, 2020, 5:31 AM

nicely done :)

manic helm Jan 29, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

Dont think i can make the jump to the next spot in overall score with my rx480 in the system. I would need another solid 400 points to beat out the next user.

#

might be stuck at #6 3000g unless I get motivated to put my cpu in my custom loop with my 2080

#

but thats a lot of work

#

I guess I could pull my rx580 out of my itx and do a quick crossfire run. that would put me somewhere in the neighborhood of 1st place I think. Pretty sure my crossfire could take that 2080ti in first

#

but that would have to wait till tomorrow

anyone have recommended overclocking settings for an i5-9600k and 2060S

boreal jungle Jan 30, 2020, 1:41 AM

#

I’ve got 5.0GHz on my 9600KF with 1.32 core voltage. But I’m on a liquid cooler

#

Only difference between the K and KF is the KF has no integrated graphics, which gives you a little more juice to overclock, but I think you can hit somewhere around 4.8-5.0GHz easily.

i have the ryzen 7 2700x with the wraith spire air cooler was wondering if i could overclock with that or should i get a better cooler before overclocking?

manic helm Feb 3, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

Spire or Prism? The 2700x should have come with the prism. Prism is square, spire is round.

#

if its a spire you are probably not going to get much out of it. The prism is better but don't expect to get any amazing overclocks. Generally speaking with an X cpu you are better off just letting it boost on its own with PBO and XFR.

exotic glen Feb 3, 2020, 9:04 PM

#

its the square one which ever one the 2700x comes with

#

so there is not a big upgrade to overclocking the 2700x?

kindred trail Feb 4, 2020, 1:45 AM

#

Overclocking 3900x to 4300 at 1.3 volts. The ryzen app and hwinfo app say the cpu is hitting 82c but asus app shows its 63. Which is correct

bold pine Feb 4, 2020, 1:47 AM

#

I'd trust hwinfo

#

is that under load?

kindred trail Feb 4, 2020, 1:54 AM

#

Yeah on cinebench r20. It hit 82c which is just into the 3/4 temp zone I dont feel like it every stay there in any of my games or browsing. Dont want to damage it me extra 400 points over all stock

#

Idles at 40c might reach 50c playing around with multiple apps open not breaking 15% cpu utilization

#

Water cooled if that matters

That wont happen

If it gets to the point of thermal throttling, it kinda just turns off

Its still bad for the cpu, but it wont burn it

we do buy seasonic platinum psu lol in ali express too last year

#

from a miner

#

1000w ... and it cost like 40% off the original

#

good deal xD..

has anybody gotten 4.2 on their 2600x
and if so
what voltage

#

@ me with answer

#

ive managed to get stable with my 5700 at 2040 core 1890 memory. hows that compare to the rest of yall?

shy sequoia Feb 8, 2020, 3:30 AM

#

@shy sequoia I can get into windows at 4.2 with my 2600 (non x) but never managed to get it stable. I was in the 1.5v range by that point and didn't want to push it any further. I hit a voltage wall around 4ghz. 4.1 is stable but takes over 1.4v

Thank you for the insight

screen is artifacting beyond +250mhz on mem

#

was perfectly fine at +500mhz yesterday

#

any reasons for that

#

its artifacting at idle

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:04 AM

#

uh oh

#

reset your core clocks too

#

go back to stock speeds, restart

short blade Feb 8, 2020, 6:05 AM

#

ima try turning off this multi display power saver from nvidia inspector

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:05 AM

#

k

short blade Feb 8, 2020, 6:05 AM

#

cause thats the only thing i changed since yesterday

#

im running an undervolt below stock clocks so i really doubt core clocks are the issue

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:05 AM

#

+500mhz is kinda alot, i hope you didnt cook one of your dram chips

#

ok

short blade Feb 8, 2020, 6:05 AM

#

idk ive seen people stable +1000mhz

#

with air cooling

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:06 AM

#

before or after the multiplier?

short blade Feb 8, 2020, 6:06 AM

#

after

#

+1000 before multiplier would be insane

#

+4000

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:06 AM

#

lmao yeah

#

ok ok

#

then 500 isnt bad lol

short blade Feb 8, 2020, 6:06 AM

#

i turned it back to +500 and turned off the power saver

#

no artifacts so far

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:06 AM

#

unless you got unlucky and got a bad chip

short blade Feb 8, 2020, 6:07 AM

#

i think my gpu is near the bottom of the silicon lottery

#

comparing my undervolt results to others of same model

#

but im not terribly worried about it

#

i have to run 1.063V to get the same clocks some people can get at 975mV

#

but my temps peak at 66

#

so it's whatever

#

yeah ok i think it was just the power saver thing

#

maybe it was the switching between 607mhz and 1569mhz that was causing the artifacts

#

it was always just like 1 artifacted frame flashing on the screen

#

apparently nvidia gpus refuse to automatically downclock to idle speed if u have a 144hz monitor + a second monitor

#

so i was told to try this power saver from nvidia inspector

#

guess not

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:10 AM

#

cool

short blade Feb 8, 2020, 6:11 AM

#

kinda sad that my gpu silicon is bad, but i guess its better for someone whos just undervolting to get bad silicon rather than someone trying to push clocks as hard as possible

cold jolt Feb 8, 2020, 6:15 AM

#

yeah ig

#

i mean its not like you get a huge perf increase anyway

#

but its good to save power

#

and produce lass heat

I have a MSI Radeon RX-470 ARMOUR OC 8gb GPU and when I try to overclock it to what a MSI Radeon RX-570 is My system runs really stupid and my GPU shuts itself off and I get a black screen. The Clocks arent that much different between the 2 GPUs. Anyone know why its doing this? My system is a Gigabyte B450 AORUS-M Motherboard-32gb of DDR4 3000mhz Corsair Vengence LPX RAM-Ryzen 5 2600X 3.6ghz 6 core 12 thread CPU with the RX-470 for my GPU.

#

lower the clock so it doesn't crash or raise your power limit to make it stable

latent wolf Feb 9, 2020, 7:42 AM

#

I cant raise the power limit in Afterburner. Now when I used the latest Update for the RX series cards i was able to auto overclock to 1300mhz clock and 1650mhz on the Memory

#

But In Afterburner I cant get a stable overclock on it.

Who got recommended settings for a gigabyte 1660 oc 2 fan
