Hey yall! So I am a new pc builder. I would love to learn about how to overclock however I am very concerned on the subject. Anywho, I swapped from console to pc gaming and built my first pc. I have ripjaws v 16gb 3200 ram, amd ryzen 5 1600af, msi geforce gtx 1060 6gb ocv1, b450 aorus m board...my issue is i cant play fortnite on any type of oc or the game crashes...I've tried only xmp no gpu oc it crashes...I tried just msi afterburner oc no xmp its crashes. Both together, crashed...only the fortnite app....my other concern is from my understanding my gpu should have cuda, opencl and physx....however gpuz does not have them ticked. I've used ddu to fresh install my driver. I honestly dont know what I'm doing here tbh so just looking for guidance so I can start getting on the right track.

then dont use any form of OC? Especially memory frequency, going past 2933 is somewhat dodgy for weaker CPUs

OCs are never guaranteed. You could have just gotten unlucky and not be able to OC very high.

In general, the way to get around crashing while overclocking is to give the chip more voltage. For RAM, this could mean giving your CPU memory controller more voltage, or your RAM itself more voltage. I'd suggest looking up a memory overclocking guide on YouTube.

 

for GPU the best you can really do is increase the power and voltage limits as high as they will go (they're capped at something like 115% ish (depends on card) in order for you to not kill it, so no worries cranking it all the way) and then see how high you can get your core and memory clocks. Memory is just as important as core clock, so make sure to prioritize that too.
