Ryzen 5 1600

[Gothaurus]

Hello. I was wandering if there is a profile for the IA suite 3 Dual Intelligent Processors 5 software? I started to get an interest on over-clocking my CPU, however, someone told me that the Ryzen 5 1600 can not be over-clock. But using the software I mention, and according to it, I have manage to over clock my cpu to 9% with out any issues. So anyone know if there are pre-made profiles somewhere? Thanks in advance for any info.

Should stop taking advice from this person lol

 

It can definitely be overclocked. And would be much better to do it manually than relying on a profile to do it for you. All chips are different and some can overclock better than others. Silicon Lottery

 

However, if you have an A320 board (which you shouldnt) you won't be able to overclock.

Yes the board you have is very important. What model is it?

its just motherboard restriction if AMD CPU's can be overclocked, otherwise they all can, obviously yours can

enjoy your OC, next time you see your friend point and laugh at them

It's the ASUS ROG Strix B450-F Gaming Motherboard (ATX) AMD Ryzen 2 AM4 DDR4 DP HDMI M.2 USB 3.1 Gen2 B450, I upgraded it last year around my birthday. Yes I know its an overkill motherboard for the cpu I have plans for upgrading it too, and building another budget pc for ether living room or.... re-sell it? I don't know I'm stock, I'm the only PC tech enthusiast in my family, the rest it's fine with their 7 years old Lenovo twist-pad and 2008 mackbook and 4 years old tablets. I also have an almost 10 years old Asus Essention Series pc, which was my first top of the line pc back then. Now speaking of CPU up grades, what are your recommendations? what CPU you recommend for this motherboard for a 200 or less budget?

No i have an ASUS ROG Strix B450-F Gaming Motherboard (ATX) AMD Ryzen 2 AM4 DDR4 DP HDMI M.2 USB 3.1 Gen2 B450 I upgrade it last year around my birthday, I accidentally bend the USB 3.0 pins on my first motherboard, although it was working fine some usb ports fail to read usbs 30% of the time. Yea I could get better performance from the cpu by manually overclocking but I don't have that much of a confidence yet, specially with my limited budget. Can't risk it.

Ryzen 3600 for a platform that is more focused on gaming and a 2700X for a system where you need all the cores for example rendering or encoding.

I have mange to overclocking it up to 15% now. However I started to notice some strange performance, it some times does some small freezing. So I'll be leaving it to that. I have been able to do some fast video exports so I'm fine with the performance so far.

Thanks, I might go for the 2700X, it's a few dollars cheaper, and I do some video editing once in a wile.  what ram would it work best. the 3000 MHz or 3200MHz? I know the 3200 might give me more performance, but does the 2700x needs that?

I'd aim for 3200mhz if you can my old 2700X had 3466mhz at 14 cas timings but i bought a high-end samsung b-die kit so i could keep it with all gens of ryzen on AM4

You're going to want to OC that 1600. Non X models have really low boost frequency.

 

I noticed a decent return by going from stock (3.3ghz?) to 4ghz all-core on mine.

 

I just did it in BIOS and added +.204 offset voltage and set multiplier to 40.

 

This results in anywhere between 1.39v to 1.42v in practice.

 

There will be some who say that's too high, and they're probably right, but I don't really mind too much as this isn't my main system.

 

You can probably get away with 3.8ghz on stock voltage. Which is itself a 15% frequency boost.
