The 3D Mark demo includes Firestrike on Steam. Look for the "demo" label on the store page. This would help compare performance with similar tools. Before proceeding, remove Ryzen Master, reset the BIOS (as it can interfere), and set XMP to default. Running the Firestrike demo is safer since Ryzen Master might cause problems. It’s mainly practical for specific scenarios rather than general use.
Consider restoring the 5600 first. Before removing the 3600, check other components or factors that might affect performance.
You can test firestrike using the 3600 model, share the results here, then try the 5600 again. It’s safe to compare them aside from removing Ryzen Master, resetting BIOS and XMP settings—otherwise nothing else seems necessary at the moment. Edit: except updating the newest AMD chipset drivers, which would likely be beneficial right away as well.
Avoid sharing identical content across topics. If you'd like a change, just share the details and I'll handle the adjustment.
Isn't the firestrike demo just a gpu benchmark and you have to pay extra for the CPU one?
This meets the minimum requirements at 1.2-1.3v, matching the 3600 standard.
