Looking for advice on reducing voltage or clock speed for Zen 2 (R5 3600)?
Looking for advice on reducing voltage or clock speed for Zen 2 (R5 3600)?
Through many guides and step-by-steps I ended up going back to my original overclock but underclock method. It achieved a 3.8% boost across multiple cores compared to stock (3609 vs 3477) while dropping singlecore speed by 1.1% (466 vs 471). In Blender BMW tests, performance jumped 5.3% over stock (3:50 → 4:03). I cut power consumption by 24% (57W → 75W) and lowered temperatures by 15-16% (~75°C → ~62°C), which makes sense considering the limited cooling solution. The trade-off is noticeable thermal impact inside the tight chassis, highlighting how PBO struggles with extreme cooling needs.
