Hello! I chose to attempt CPU overclocking using Ryzen Master on an ASRock HDV 4.0 board. I understand this setup isn’t ideal. I experimented with 3.9ghz @ 1.25v and played Forza 7, which worked without issues. Temperatures matched the original specs (even at 4.0ghz with 1.3v it was slightly warmer by a few degrees). However, when I tried Cinebench 15 it crashed. So I gradually increased the overclock in Ryzen Master until it stopped failing. I then moved to Realbench, which ran briefly before crashing again. Even at 1.3v it didn’t last long. Temperatures stayed around 71 on Realbench, but I’m questioning if this motherboard is just too poor quality to handle such a challenge. I don’t see VRM temperatures listed in HWINFO.

The voltage regulators act as the main constraint on the motherboard. What method are you employing for CPU cooling? An AIO water system? Then, the airflow around the CPU socket becomes restricted, causing the VRMs to overheat.

Only the stock wraith is invisible. The CPU temperatures stayed normal during shutdowns. The highest it reached was 71.
