The starting point would be checking the voltage around 1.25v and the clock speed at 3.8GHz. Test in Prime 95 to verify stability (about 20 minutes is typical for quick checks; once you find a solid setting, extend testing to 2-3 hours). If instability occurs or threads crash in Prime95, raise the voltage. If stable, boost the core clock. You should aim near 4.2GHz, though results aren’t guaranteed. Keep voltage under roughly 1.35v and monitor temps to avoid overheating. First-gen Ryzen is straightforward to overclock, but not as high as Intel’s approach. If unsure, plenty of tutorials exist online to guide you through the process.
