Issues with OC stability on R5 2400g
Issues with OC stability on R5 2400g
I attempted to test my 2400g at 3.9 GHz. Cinebench started but eventually stopped. It's unusual that it wouldn't fail precisely at the benchmark point. Sometimes it fails early when the room temperature is slightly warm, or later when it cools down. During testing, temperatures never reached 90°C and it would stop. I use CPU HWINFO and Ryzen Master, with voltage set to auto.
As you are likely aware, the Ryzen 5 2400g reaches its thermal limit near 95°C.
After overclocking to 3.9GHz for performance, did you apply Ryzen Master?
You might need up to 1.475V MAX for safe operation; begin with 1.375V initially. If the system won’t boot, raise core voltage in small increments of 0.02V until it starts.
This process becomes more challenging because the GPU is built into the CPU.
Any changes should be made within the BIOS (third-party tools may damage your BIOS).
Leaving the core voltage on automatically can cause overvoltage and overheating.
The included cooling solution works fine at stock settings, but slight overclocking is possible; however, keep core voltage low to maintain stability. Use offsets, SOC voltage, or LLC to aid consistency.
If you’re new to this, consider reading some overclocking guides.

The process becomes tricky mainly due to thermal issues. I attempted to overclock using BIOS and Ryzen Master, but my GPU only improved by about 100 MHz. It seems I might have missed out on a good chance for success.
