I’m having trouble achieving a consistent overclock for my Ryzen 5 2600.
I’m having trouble achieving a consistent overclock for my Ryzen 5 2600.
I got my new Ryzen 5 2600 a few days ago and today I attempted to overclock it. My RAM is sitting at 1.22V DOCP 2666mhz (it’s rated for 2400). So I increased the CPU voltage to 1.412 V and tried to reach 3.9Ghz as others claimed could hit 4.1Ghz. I ran Cinebench without the PC crashing, but after about 10 minutes of Aida64 my machine crashed, and temperatures climbed to around 106°C during that test. My question is whether I’m doing something incorrect or if the CPU simply can’t sustain higher frequencies.
If you're committed to overclocking, I truly recommend giving it a shot. Pay close attention to the instructions provided. Skipping parts of the guide could lead to serious damage to your CPU. Still, I hope you succeed and let me know your experience.
yes you proceed directly to 3.9 and increase the voltage before executing the small step
stock single thread 3.9Ghz boost is 1.35v, so I'd begin there. I'm using the same CPU and have decided to stick with [email protected]. I managed this by increasing the vcore offset by 0.15v and the cpusoc offset by 0.05v. You should be able to reach 3.9ghz easily with that vcore, and it won't exceed 1.4v for me. Try leaving everything auto and just adjust the multiplier, cpu-vcore, and cpusoc-vcore.
