CPU Voltage

Hi, I have been overclocking my Ryzen 3600 with Ryzen master. I have achieved 4.3ghz at 1.375v. I was able to push 4.5ghz but the voltage was around 1.42v. I confused with these voltages because 1.42v seems high but stock the voltage is peaking 1.44v. Whats going on here?

 

NOTE: Temps are fine, it's watercooled, and has a x370 mobo. Ram is underclocked to 2133 because of weird compatibility issue.

It's only safe to run high voltage in low core count workloads, if you say run Prime95 it will not go over 1.3V stock. Safe voltage for all core OC is actually somewhere around 1.3V, so your OC is entirely unsafe.

 

and btw, without clocking the memory higher overclocking the core will not help performance very much.

I was able to get the voltage down to 1.2875v ill try to go lower. I thought it was unsafe over 1.4v.

I tried overclocking the ram and found that the reason I never kept it overclocked was because games like Rainbow six siege would crash at random times.

What does the memory kit rated for?

the memory kit is rated for 3000mhz and 15-17-17-35. XMP had a preset profile with the right numbers.

I'm going to try setting the memory at 2933mhz.

Alright so it seems my cpu clock was unstable, the voltage was to low. I scaled it back to 4.2ghz and 1.293v. I stress tested both small FFTs and large FFTs. Max mobo temp is 55C and max cpu temp is 72C. Time to load up siege and give a try.

So after getting it stable, siege crashed when i joined at match. I dropped the clock to 4.1ghz at 1.28v and it ran fine.
