Hello everyone,

 

I would like some tips to overclock my 3500x, currently I was able to set it to 4.2GHZ with the overclock genie on my MSI VDH PRO motherboard, but I would like to try 4.4GHZ since my Artic Freezer 13 was able to keep under 65 celsius under AIDA64 stability test. I got a Artic freezer 33 esports one for the same price, so after the OC I wanna change to the 33 and see if it holds better temps (on sale it was 24 euro, the AF13 was 22)

 

BIOS DATE: 09/18/19 09:18:14 VER: VB.20
Motherboard Name    MSI B450M Pro-VDH Max (MS-7A38)
   

DIMM3: Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK32GX4M2B3200C16

DIMM4: Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK32GX4M2B3200C16

 

North Bridge Clock    1600 MHz
Bus Type    Dual DDR4 SDRAM
Bus Width    128-bit
DRAM:FSB Ratio    48:3
Real Clock    1600 MHz (DDR)
Effective Clock    3200 MHz
Bandwidth    51200 MB/s

 

I understand that probably there are some parameters I need to set manually, but this seems way different then when I had my old e6750 on a P5K-Deluxe at 4.0GHZ

 

Thanks in advance for any inputs.

dont let its voltage during stress test go past 1.35v, even this is considered too high for some.

The voltage set by the MSI overclockling tool was 1.4v,

Auto OC tools have always been stupid

, in fact it's stil 1.4v now

Stop using it then. It's ok for low core count workloads to run at higher voltages (stock shoots up to 1.47V for a single core), but dont let it go past 1.35v in all core work.
