Is my be quiet! Pure Rock Slim in the right side ?

Hi! So I built my new PC (not my first one) but I decided to buy the Be Quiet! Pure Rock Slim because I wanted to overclock the Ryzen 5 2600.

But, I can't go higher than 3.7GHz... Is it because of the side I choose for the fan?

 

have a nice day!

the side or the direciton of the fan does not make much difference, the temperatures will. How high are the temperatures under load?
normally you would mount the cooler rotated 90° counterclockwise, but shouldn't matter much.

Did you only rise the clocks or the voltage too?

I presume you mean the cooler orientation. I doubt that. That orientation should be fine as it's natural for the hot air to rise. It might be the chip's fault. It's not like ryzen overclocks very well. and that cooler isn't really ment for hardcore overclocking anyway.

I'm around 60°C to 65°C, which is absolutely fine. But I though that the fan can be in conflict with the case fan on top (I hope you can understand, I still have progress to do in English ;) )

I just want to go to 4.0GHz, maybe it's too much I don't really know..

I doubt you will be able to reach that to be honest.

what's limiting your overclock? Did you touch the voltages yet?

To be honest, I'm a noob at overclocking. I just went to the bios and change the frequency. My Mobo is the Gigabyte AORUS ultra gaming, and I didn't touched the voltages.

Cooler orientation isn't issue, voltages are. You can only go as far with stock voltages, or voltages left to auto. 85C is the limit under stress test that you shouldn't cross.

 

In the end, it's coolers size that becomes limit, if the chip and mobo aren't. Aka it doesn't BSOD before it overheats.

Then you need to start tuning that. 1.425V is the max for this CPU, but since what you entered in the BIOS doesnt equal to what you'll get, make sure you have HWinfo (in sensor mode) running in Windows while you start stress testing the CPU so you can keep CPU voltage (Vcore) in check

in addition to that, don't bump it straight up to 1.425V, but make small increments
use as little additional voltage as possible but as much as needed

I will be surprised if this cooler can take it over 1.3V. Even when Sandy chips are cooler than later gens.
