Overclocking on Ryzen 5000

[Coaxialgamer]

Got a 5600x to replace my venerable R7 1700 (RIP) which was starting to struggle with more powerful GPUs.

 

To be perfectly honest I haven't really been keeping up with what the CPU industry has been doing these last couple years, and I've been wondering about overclocking.

 

Pretty much every CPU I've ever owned I have overclocked to some degree. However, I've been hearing that current chips are basically at their limit already and can't/shouldn't be overclocked. Is there any truth to this? I have PBO enabled and my chip is happily running at 4.6ghz on my NHD14, can I get anything more out of this chip with a manual overclock? What about adjusting voltages? Is that safe or even advisable here?

You can play with PBO, the curve optimizer, to get a tiny bit more (couple %) while lowering the thermals by a bit. Not really needed IMO.

Just use the latest Bios, the latest chipset drivers downloaded from AMD, turn on Above 4G decoding and Resizable BAR (Smart Access memory, SAM).

I am running AGESA 1203 on my 5600X system. I have 200/140/180 set with a -29 all core curve, +200 frequency override and she boosts to 4850 on all cores and threads. It is also stable at 2000 1:1.
