Overclocking Threadripper? 1950X Should I keep going?

Hello,

 

I have been working on fine tuning my overclocks on my 1950x Threadripper on a Asus Zenith Extreme. I want to know if this a good overclock and should I continue to push my boundaries? This is my first attempt of trying to fine tune a overclock.

 

CPU - 4.3

CORE VOLTAGE - 1.4

MEMORY - 2800MHZ

Must be stability checked. During of which must monitor temps and clocks.

Can use Intel Burn test, Prime95 or OCCT. Short test is 20 minutes. Stability check min of 2 hours.

The chips throttle limit is 90c. Lower is better, full load temps only matter.

And can you describe how you've accomplished the overclock so far?

VID is not the right number to read for voltage, you should check CPU Core Voltage (SVI2 TFN).

 

You should ideally go faster for memory, but if the memory kit's rated low then you probably cant go more here

Alright I'll run a long prime95 run. I have it under water cooling with a 80mm quad rad and a 80mm triple. I don't think heat will be an issue 🤔

 

I will jump into my bios and get my settings
