x370 Gaming pro carbon + 3900x???

[Xkillerpn]

Hello, I want to upgrade my 1600 to a 3900x but I need some info on vrm temps with this board. 

 

Atm with my 1600 with 4ghz oc 1.45v vrm temps are 50c

 

So I dont know with a 3900x if it will be worst than that. 

 

Does someone has something similar to this?

3900x on X370 should for fine. The VRMs on that board look pretty solid, but I'm not sure. Look up some reviews first

i dont think you can put a 3000 series on a 300 chipset board. theres 400s that support 3000 series with a bios update. but havent heard of a 300 series able to

Any x370 that has the bios update for 3000 will run it. 

 

I think all of them got it and even the 350 boards had the update. 

 

Thinking on it even the A320s got updates for ryzens 3000

oh thats right. just lose features and not as good vrm

it doesn't have the vrms to handle a 3900. you'll need to change the board

The VRM will likely handle it, but I don't think anyone knows how long it will keep running. I have been running a ASRock B450 Pro4 with a 3900X at stock settings for 2 months without any problems. I have no way of getting the VRM temperatures, but the vcore on the 3900x is lower when the CPU is stressed compared to the 2700x. When idle the 3900x CPU VDD fluctuates peaks as high as 1.51V, but only for a second or two from what I can see with HWMonitor.
