Asus Crosshair Hero VI (X370) + Ryzen 3xxx series OCing

For Science! · December 9, 2019

Hi all,

I was wanting to get some census on anybody running Ryzen 3000 series, preferably 3950X or at least 3900X on a X370 Asus Crosshair Hero VI. How has your OCing experience been, did you have to tweak any settings in particular to get memory or inifinity fabric to be stable? (stable being, for example 8 hours in Realbench stress test).

I was able to achieve a stable 4.3 GHz rather easily with just offset voltages, but as soon as I even look at the memory frequency or timings the stability just goes out the window.

My BIOS version is 7601

im on 7601 as well for my C6H and have zero stability issues. My memory kit is this: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XFT7DF9/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I used the Ryzen DRAM calc and have it overclocked to 3600mhz no issues at 16-16-16-32 no issues.

Spoiler

As far as CPU, I have the 3700x and just left it at stock. Best I could manually get was 4.2 at ~1.35v which was an improvement in some areas, but loss in others. SO I just enabled PBO and left it all at stock settings since there was no real clear winner either way.
