Check if Ryzen 7 1700 supports 3.4ghz overclocking.
Hi
I’m trying to push my Ryzen 7 1700 further since the motherboard already has game mode at 3.2ghz. I’m wondering if I should raise the voltage to 3.4ghz or not. I’m new to this stuff, so I want to make sure I do it right.
Thanks.
yes, disable the game boost
adjust voltage to 1.3v with a multiplier of 34, retain other defaults
check for booting
if successful, run Prime95 for a stress test lasting at least half an hour
ensure stability; reduce voltage gradually until you reach the lowest level that maintains stability
load temperature should stay below ~80°C
if no boot occurs, increase voltage slowly—1.45 is the maximum and 1.35 is recommended
feel free to ask if you need further help.

I'm just starting with overclocking and currently have the 1700 running at 4.0Ghz at around 1.385v. It's been stable so far, so I plan to lower the voltage to 1.375 and check if it remains stable.
I understand that 1.35 isn't stable but I've had some luck so far.
I'm pretty sure you won't need to raise the voltage for 3.4... On the standard setting you should be able to reach around 3.7Ghz.
Let me know how it went
Kobrax shared their experience with overclocking, currently running the 1700 at 4.0Ghz and 1.385v, which is stable. They plan to lower the voltage to 1.375 to test stability. They mention past issues with 1.35 being unstable but had luck so far. They also noted performance drops in Prime95 after 7 minutes and are considering a cooler upgrade. They expressed confidence that the stock voltage should support 3.7Ghz and asked for feedback on their progress.
