Overclocking guide

[Soumil]

Please guide me for overclocking. I’m a newbie here. I have a ryzen 3 1200 and a Gigabyte B550 ds3h motherboard and a stock cooler. I overclocked my processor at 3.6 GhZ on 1.3 volts. Cinebench is working fine. But my games crash at sometimes. Please anyone can help me with stable overclocking values for my setup.

Your OC is not stable. There is no universal value you can set, each CPU is different and you need to find stable settings yourself. You likely can't go as high as 3600MHz with frequency at 1.3V... it's just bad luck with the silicon quality.

Set multiplier to 30 and see if crashing continues

 

First gen ryzen has garbage imc so just gonna rule out ram instability

Most Indonesian first CPU overclocking experience is in Zen and most likely 1200 or 2200G. I understand this sentiment on a daily you want to "get more performance" on, but entry level CPU is fine for learning on how to overclock.

Ok, it may be good for learning, but really what additional performance do you get for the additional power and heat needed ?

From those day, 15-20% something around that? And thats with good cooling and Micron or Samsung B die which were quite cheap back then. Nowadays you wont notice it because 4/4 is now older than most forum browser here asking for OC guide.
