I had no idea about that before. I checked it up and it seems like something I might easily mess up. *note* It took over an hour and a half for the changes to take effect, restarted, but nothing actually updated. I tried the Start Optimizing option and clicked All Cores. Updated on September 9, 2022 by NeoMink
I achieved it using Ryzen Master. It’s quite challenging to make mistakes. I successfully reached a -29 on my 5600X.
It was updated via Ryzen Master. After trying again, it performed better but kept the temperature at 30°C instead of the usual 90°C. I undid the changes because it didn’t work as expected. I’m curious why this reversed the effect. I’d prefer a cooler idle temperature for tasks using only 1-2% CPU. I think I’ll stick with my current setup and avoid high temps during gaming. I won’t be upgrading to another AMD model next time. I’ve never had a gaming PC overheat before—it’s really annoying. I might consider going back to the i7-8700K since the performance gap isn’t noticeable. Thanks for all the advice!
I entered the bios settings and turned off PBO entirely, focusing on lowering temperatures. It didn’t exceed 60°C, though it came at a price of around 15–20 FPS loss—but that’s what had to be done.
