Ryzen 2700x Overclocking

[AthenianWarlord]

Hey  Guys,

 

I  got Cinebench score of 1803 on my ryzen build.

 

Specs:

Ryzen 2700x (stock cooler)

x470 aorous gaming motherboard

16 gb 3000mhz ram

GTX 1070ti

 

Cpu voltage staying  around 1.2v (Everything  on auto)

Temp  are  around 70 under full load

Cinebench 100% stable

 

But i am having only one issue all  cores stay @4ghz all the time they don't go down.

 

Note:

Let me know your suggestions on tweaking the settings for optimal performance , i dont want to push this processor more

In your Windows power plan make sure that minimum processor state is set to anything below 50%.  You can use any power plan you'd like.

Are the performance, temperatures and  voltages are  normal?

Yes it all looks normal.

I set the power plan to balanced low  state is 5% still all cores  @4 GHZ

Are you checking immediately after a reboot?  The CPU needs about a minute before it settles and begins to go through all its p-states.

I rebooted and btw i set the cpu ratio to 40 in bios  is that causing problem? (cool and quiet  is enabled, boost is enabled) 

 

Idle temperature are  low 40s though!

Bahahahahaha.  Yes, sir that is absolutely the problem.  Setting the multiplier to anything above its default locks the speed.

Will it damage cpu? I see power consumption spike when cpu under load in idle frequency is max but power is low

No setting the multiplier at 40 won't damage the CPU.  You really should leave it on Auto though.  You're missing out on the faster speeds your CPU is capable of by limiting it to 40 which is 4GHz.

Auto is overheating the cpu now max voltage is 1.21 in auto it's spikes to 1.35+ with top frequency single core maybe 4-4.1

What temps does it reach on Auto?

In auto it's 84-85 in this setting 70-72

 

Cinebench auto 1765 this 1803

Ok that doesn't make a ton of sense.  If you're hitting higher temps at lower speeds then I'm confused.  What case are you using?  And can you get yourself a better CPU cooler?

On auto lower speed but higher voltages..I will stick with default cooler this much speed is enough but if I can idle low frequency it will be nice..auto mode over volting the cpu

Case is 100r it's small I know

You can try using load line calibration plus a negative offset for your CPU voltage.  Try using the second to highest VCORE load line calibration setting with a negative offset of around .05V

 

All that leaving the multiplier on Auto.

this is a case where nothing is broke, don't fix it imho, as long as idle doesnt use too much power

So running at 4 GHz all the time won't damage anything?

no, but do check the how many watts ur cpu use when idle, normally it should be under 10w, if it runs at 40w idle, that adds up.

Check this its  fluctuating between 15-40 watts

15 is ok, 40 isn't. i'd just keep ur 4ghz oc if u see it at 17-20w most of the time idle, 4ghz is very power efficient for ryzen, 4.2 is a different story, the last 200mhz doubles the power draw of the cpu.

Finally i turned  on  PBO and XFR2, set vcore voltage  offset to -0.0120v,  now i am able  to  idle at lower frequencies and  max  boost single  core i am  getting  4.3 around with  max temps 70. I think i will keep this  config.
