Best PBO Settings For R7 5800X "Tips" Plz.

Zerulian Zypheirrian · April 25

Simply put, I have no idea how to deal with PBO and what to change as I am not an overclocker nor do I mess with BIO's settings. The last time I overclocked was on my old AMD FX-8320 and I hardly remember that. I just want my PBO settings to be the best they can without degrading my CPU's health. Please give me recommendations and tips if possible. My skills and understanding of the settings and what they do in the BIO's is very low FYI. Outside of the obvious settings.

Thank you in advance~

If it helps to know, FX tuning and PBO tuning couldn't be any more different, so any knowledge you would have wanted to remember wouldn't come in handy anyway.

If this is your reasoning, don't bother. The CPU's lifespan will not be practically effected one way or another. The motherboard will die before the CPU does, and odds are by the time they do you'll want to get a system upgrade anyway.
