5600X Overclocking

[NaniSalmon]

Hey all,

 

i'm looking to do a small overclocking on my ryzen 5 5600X. When I play Division 2 and COD Cold War, I sometimes see it peek at 100% for a couple seconds and i'd like to avoid that. Any tips on either using the BIOS or Ryzen master and potential frequency and voltage combo? I know it is all different for every CPU but it might give me an idea of what i can do.

 

It's paired with a B550, 16 gb RAM, RTX 2070 super and a 750W PSU.

 

Thank you

Does it drop noticeable fps when it peeks out at 100% or not? 

Consider that before trying to overclock anything since that does bear the risk of bricking/frying components.....

Well, it's not an FPS drop, but stutters a bit. In game FPS counter still shown 120+ but as the CPU is used by everything else at the same time, as soon as it reaches 100% it starts to stutter.
