Issues with overclocking the Ryzen 5 1600x
What low leakage means isn't clear from what you said, but it likely refers to reduced power loss or energy waste. You mentioned CPU-Z for voltage, so it might be about monitoring those details. Let me know if you need more clarity!

CPU-Z often fails to work correctly as it reads voltage from the wrong location.
Low leakeage chips can often be undervolted generally, even with small overclocks like yours. High leakage will perform well in overclocking but will need very high voltages. Consider the older FX 8 cores, mainly identical CPUs. Low leakage became the 95w e series, while high leakage resulted in the 180-220w 9*** series.
