Hi everyone,
I attempted to do a mild overclock on my Ryzen 7 1700. I went into the bios and changed the RAM to the correct speeds (D.O.C.P., changing it from 2133 mhz to 2933 mhz, closer to the advertised 3000) and changed the setting to performance from stock. That overclocked the CPU to 3.65 ghz (I'm running the stock wraith spire cooler). I went in and ran Cinebench and it worked perfectly fine.
Then later I decided to use the EZ tuning wizard, which didn't change the settings much. I tried it setting it as a box cooler and a tower cooler, and running cinebench caused a crash both times, despite temperatures never exceeding 70 degrees.
So I went in and restored full default settings, with no ram tweaking and the bios in normal mode. Went back in and cinebench worked fine.
So then I decided to go back to my original tweaks; D.O.C.P. ram and performance mode in the bios. This was perfectly stable before I did the EZ tuning wizard, but now it's causing cinebench to crash. I monitored temperatures through all tests and it never came close to being dangerously hot.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
System:
AMD Ryzen 7 1700 with stock cooler
ASUS Prime X-370 Pro
16 gb GSkill Rip Jaws (2*8) 3000 mhz
EVGA GTX 970
Antec 900 v2
Don't remember exact PSU model, but it's an antec with over 600 watts so that shouldn't be an issue.
