I'm just starting with PCs and was told to be more precise when adjusting overclock settings on Ryzen versus Intel. Should I watch out for anything special? I mainly aimed to boost my RAM from 2133 to 3200 MHz.

Besides RAM, my configuration was identical. The CPU would quickly reach 4.GHz at voltages of 1.4v or lower, especially with a water cooler in place. Temperatures remained below 70°C.
Installing a Kingston (Hynix based) 3200MHz RAM was difficult and caused reliability issues, so I reduced the clock speed to 12 and it performed better.
Maintaining voltage at 1.425v and temperatures under 75°C is acceptable; otherwise, the rest depends on external factors.

CountMike shared his experience with similar configurations. He noted stable performance at lower voltages and temperatures, but faced reliability issues with higher speeds. Adjusting the voltage to 1.425v and keeping temps below 75c helped. He mentioned the rest depended on external factors like cooling solutions.

Everything depends on voltage, try to keep it as low as possible without dropping below 75c during extended use. Likely around 1.4v with the cooler.

CountMike shared his thoughts on the topic. He emphasized maintaining low voltage, aiming for under 75c during extended use. His estimate suggests around 1.4v with the cooler in place. Thanks!
