Discuss your CPU and overclocking plans.
You're curious about boosting your Ryzen 7 3700X performance. It seems you've already checked the stock cooler and are exploring overclocking options, but the temperatures are still around 65°C at full load. The videos you found suggest pushing to 4.3 GHz, but your current temps indicate it's not reaching that level. You might want to verify your cooler setup or consider a better cooling solution if you're serious about higher speeds.
Task manager displays the speed of the fastest individual core. A 3700x reaches up to 4.4ghz on its top core. The videos you're watching show a full-core overclock where each core runs at 4.3ghz. This means some single-threaded performance drops, but overall multi-threaded tasks benefit from the boost.
The 3700x turbos can reach up to 4.4ghz when required. It doesn’t maintain that speed continuously. If you push it overclocked, you might keep it at 4.4ghz constantly or even go higher, but using the built-in cooler would likely cause thermal throttling.
