CPU overclocking

[DESTROYER 123503]

So i have a ryzen 5 2600x and i overclocked it to 4.1ghz at 1.4v and it was stable when i was playing planetside 2 for 2 hours as planetside 2 is a very CPU intensive game but when i stress test the CPU by using aida64 extreme after 30mins it crashes. Does that mean that it's not completely stable?

it's not stable 

 

try to play with LLC settings, maybe you just have too high voltage droop

No CPU intensive game is an adequate alternative to a proper CPU stress test like P95 or AIDA. They're simply not intensive enough to seriously stress the CPU.

1. That is not stable

 

2. 1.4V is not a safe voltage

You're what I call benchmarking stable. The clocks you show off at. 

 

3.9-4.0ghz looks like the average all core stable I've seen on OC forums. 4.1 is stretching it. Ain't no 2700x you know.... even that stock all core boost is only 4.0ghz on the proper temps (below 80c) and at 85-90c, throttles.
