Assistance with installing Ryzen 5 2600
Hello,
My Ryzen 5 2600 (non x) is fully optimized to 4.1 Ghz @ 1.325 VCore with Auto LLC. SoC voltage is set automatically and all other parameters are left as Auto. It has remained stable during the Prime95 Blend test for over four hours; that duration was a solid sign of stability. The CPU temperature never went above 75°C.
I’m aiming to push it up to 4.2 Ghz. After a full day of testing, I reached a maximum stable speed of 4.2 @ 1.4375 VCore with LLC Mode enabled, while everything else stayed in Auto. However, the system crashed after about 4:35 minutes on Prime95 when the temperature hit 83°C. I tested all LLC modes, including Auto, and found that LLC mode 4 performed best.
I believe the issue is related to high temperatures rather than voltage droop. Any further adjustments I could make to improve stability during testing?
Build specs:
-Ryzen 2600 (non x) OCed 4.1 at 1.325V (perfectly stable)
-MSI b450 tomahawk MAX
-ASUS rog strix RX 570 OC edition 4 GDDR5
-TT thermaltake Water 3.0 360
-Seasonic 650 watt 80+ gold rated semi modular
-RAM (4 sticks x16GB) DDR4 3200 CL16-18-18-38
Some chips can't go beyond 4.1GHz, which makes overclocking unnecessary—they still function properly. The performance gain is minimal and comes with a lot of heat. If you can't get it to run at 1.4V, it's not worth the effort or trying to make it stable.
