so i was wondering how much more performance i can get out of my Ryzen 5 2600 and i wanted to overclock it, but instead of trying different clock speeds because it my first time overclocking and i panic when i get a black screen, i was wondering for the people that overclocked this CPU before what was the sweet spot for you without any stability issues and with actual performance boost, I play games like Call Of Duty Modern Warfare - Rainbow six siege - Fortnite, My Motherboard is a MSI  B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC (MS-7B85) and is that motherboard good enough to overclock on it?

Every chip has different capabilities. We don't know, if it's unstable just clear the cmos. 

But zen doesn't have a big headroom for overclocking and enabling pbo generally does the job. 

Also if you're generally not comfortable overclocking I would do it.
