It would help to understand the motherboard you're using. If it's basic with weak VRM or no heatsinks, it might not handle heavy loads well. Also, knowing more about BIOS settings beyond just voltage and clock speed can improve stability—especially if you have features like LLC load line calibration. I usually use Ryzen Master, pin it to the taskbar for quick access before gaming, and it helps save power when idle or browsing. Of course, this isn't ideal for everyone, but setting up the PC a bit beforehand is part of the experience for some people.
Consider maintaining a consistent temperature while managing stress.
Maintain CPU temperature below 80°C, ideally under 85°C. If it approaches 80°C+, terminate the benchmark, adjust settings, reduce voltage, and modify clock speeds if necessary.
Heard Plutosaurus mentioned many are testing around 1.4V on Ryzen 2000. Start with 1.35V, adjust voltages and clock speeds for stability, keeping temperatures in check. Some might push 1.4V all day with a solid cooler, but expect higher temps with certain coolers. Worth trying if you manage it.
