define cpu voltage and gHz for ryzen 5 2600
How are you conducting your thermal tests? If employing Prime95 "Small FFT's" for 15 minutes, aim to maintain a temperature below 80 C.
For Prime95 either select version v26.6 or, if you're using the newest, turn off AVX.
See the discussion on Reddit about what Prime95 versions are recommended.
SoC voltage is intended for memory and iGPU overclocking, not relevant here.
I read the article. It offers a concise overview but requires significant time. In my view, I’d limit prime95 testing to no more than 30 minutes if the CPU speed isn’t high enough. For instance, my target is around 4.2 GHz; I aim to complete faster tests at 4.0 or 4.1 GHz initially, then extend to 4.2 GHz once stability improves and voltage remains steady. When reaching 4.1 GHz, I encountered difficulties and opted to test at 4.0 GHz with a lower voltage. I found a helpful guide here: https://overclocking.guide/stability-tes...-prime-95/
That's a solid and effective method to achieve an overclock target. It helps quickly eliminate overly ambitious CPU speeds. Under no conditions would I run the "Small FFTs" stress test for longer than 15 minutes, as it significantly raises temperatures.
