Is My Ryzen Overclock stable enough?

[marvin5881]

I overclocked my Ryzen 1600 to 4.0 GHz at 1.41 volts and during Cinebench, Prime95 and CPUz stress test it crashes and reaches temperatures of 95 Celsius. BUT when I do gaming using the CPU it never crashes for days and the result is the same with Cryptocurrency mining, should I just leave it at 4.0 GHz?

if it crashes, it isn't stable enough...

 

there are processing faults happening in the background which you won't see until they wreck your filesystem for example... yes can happen with an unstable overclock...

 

It needs to be stable no matter what you throw at it... just going for max overclock and telling all tests crash the machine but watching youtube is fine isn't stable and not what you want in the long run.

Awtch... it is not stable because it is crashing and this voltage is insanely high you should settle down for 3.9ghz, realistic speaking you won't lose performance at all... 100mhz is nothing

if you don't mind sporadic crashes then leave it be. 

Validating a gazillion hours in Prime95 is pointless, even Intel validates for less in their labs. 

Just keep in mind you may loose some data (which is highly improbable, but still possible). 

Personally i don't like prime 95. Even less as an overclocking validation. If you can afford a few crashes let daily usage validate your OC.
