Assistance with boosting Ryzen 5 1600 performance
Hi,
I'm in need of some help to overclock my Ryzen 5 1600.
Since my Scythe Fuma is recently been doing a great job in cooling my Ryzen CPU, why not overclock it a bit so I can get the most out of my money?
My temps are load (OCCT) 45 degrees min, 48 degrees max which makes an average of 47 degrees.
Idle is constantly around 25-30 degrees.
Room temperature is around 20 degrees and I have 4 case fans and also two on my CPU cooler which makes the case and the CPU really cool.
So my question is, what is a safe voltage to begin with, and what would be a safe but good overclock for this CPU? With this I mean a good overclock but won't affect the lifespan of the CPU too much.
Here are my specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 1600
ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS (Running latest bios)
G.Skill DDR4 3200 MHz DDR4 (Currently running at 3066 MHz)
Scythe Fuma CPU cooler
CX750
GTX 970 4GB
Thanks in advance,
Tony
Maximum 1.4V recommended for regular use. Below that level (like 1.35V) is acceptable. Lifespan may decrease if voltage increases. For a longer lifespan of around four years, consider 1.3V or less.
You're likely not going beyond 4/4.1 GHZ, so avoid pushing past it.
Currently at 3,8 GHz with stable operation at 1,35V, temperatures around 60 degrees. Attempting to reduce the voltage, likely?
Edit:
3.8 GHz stable at 1.30V
3.9 GHz stable at 1.35V
4.0 GHz not stable at 1.4V (possibly stable above 1.4V but that seems risky)
