Anything specific to do to optimize my new system ? (Ryzen 3800X + X570)

Hello!

I recently bought a new system:

- Ryzen 3800X (cooled with Noctua NH-D15)

- 4x8GB DDR4 3600 16-16-16-36 TridentZ RGB

- Asus X570 Aorus Master

- Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1TB

- GTX 1080 Gigabyte G1 (from my previous system, already a little bit OCed)

- Fractal Design R6

 

Everything seems to work properly. But I'm wondering if there is anything specific to do to make sure It run its full potential without doing crazy stuff (I don't want to do manual overclocking yet).

So far I did:

- Load XMP profile from RAM in bios

- Changed CPU fan curve to keep my system quiet (idle 40C, full load 71C)

 

I heard about PB and PBO but I'm not sure what to do about that.

I want to keep everything simple to operate. I'm kinda busy (dad of a 8mo girl and daytime job).

Did you update the BIOS to the latest revision? There were a lot of optimizations recently in the AGESA 1404 update iirc

PBO is a bit ridiculous. PBO maxed out you'll see the temps sky rocket. Well, that's what I've seen with the 3950X. I guess it's not surprising with that chip since it's very dense.

 

Manual OC runs a bit cooler.

 

Even just leaving it all auto seems alright too. PB2 is just what AMD calls their "Turbo Boost" IIRC. It's seems to be quite a bit more temperature sensitive than Intel and their Turbo Boost feature.

Yes, thank you. I forgot to mention. BTW the bios from factory was very broken and barely usable
