Are these OC settings safe?

[Jordy123]

Hi

I have overclocked my CPU and RAM and wondering if these settings are safe? I followed reddit guides and Linustechtips video (I don't really understand too well OC), so just wanted to make sure I'm not going to fry anything or degrade its life span in any meaningful way (as long as it lasts until technical obsolescence I'm happy). Screenshot below. Ryzen Master screenshot recorded when I did Cinebench R20 benchmark. I have a Ryzen 7 3700x OC to 4.3GHz all core, with a 3200mHz 16gb RAM kit running at 3400mHz DRAM Calculator settings. Thanks

Seems like it's normal for the most part

Thanks. You've helped me so much with my build haha tyty!

What is your voltage under a heavy avx load? (Look at the SVI2 TFN sensor in hwinfo)

@alatron978sorry I don't really understand what you mean (I am new to computers). I ran a cinebench r20 test and here is HWmonitor screenshot if this is what you mean? If not let me know what I need to do?

Thanks for the help

Check the SVI2 TFN voltage under load in HWINFO64 not HWMONITOR. If you are getting 1.3125v like you have set in bios your overclock is very much not safe.

I set the Vcore on my 3950x to 1.31 V and under heavy loads it drops to around 1.28V.

@alatron978I have decreased my voltage to 1.3v which is what MWINFO64 says under load, however are you sure that 1.3125v is unsafe? On the linustechtips video below, they recommend 1.35-1.375v as max voltage. Thanks

LTT was wrong and released that video before there was any evidence of what voltages are safe on these chips.

Read through this post to understand more.

Try enabling PBO with auto vcore and run a stress test. The voltage the cpu drops to should be the safe voltage for that specific chip.

This the vcore my 3950x drops to during cinebench r20 and PBo enabled. Normaly I set it to 4.35 GHz and 1.32v which drops to 1.28v under load.
