Posted June 30, 2020 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 30, 2020 What is your voltage under a heavy avx load? (Look at the SVI2 TFN sensor in hwinfo) 8700K @ 5.2ghz 1.29V, 4x8 Rev.E @ 4040 13-20-20-39 1.7V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 8700K @ 5.2ghz 1.29V, 4x8 Rev.E @ 4040 13-20-20-39 1.7V.

Posted June 30, 2020 I set the Vcore on my 3950x to 1.31 V and under heavy loads it drops to around 1.28V.

On the linustechtips video below, they recommend 1.35-1.375v as max voltage. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read through this post to understand more. 8700K @ 5.2ghz 1.29V, 4x8 Rev.E @ 4040 13-20-20-39 1.7V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 21, 2020 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.

Posted July 21, 2020 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.
