OC 1600
Hi guys, could you let me know if it's safe for me to run this every day with the specs you mentioned? I have a Ryzen 1600, Gigabyte B450M DS3H, and Corsair Vengeance Lpx 2x8gb. They work on BIOS 2933 (BSOD on 3000), I use 1.3V at 3.8GHz, and the Prime95 test lasted 35 minutes with 88°C VRAM and a max CPU temp of 64°C. I also used nzxt kraken 52x. Thanks in advance!
I'm a little uneasy about the 88*C 30 min load not being a full load test; you'd notice the difference soon. If adding another fan boosts the case airflow, I believe it could help maintain performance. These modules come with coolers, so things shouldn't get worse.
The intake is bad (Phanteks P400), I use 3x be quiet 120mm and 2x 140mm. The system runs at 1070ti msi gaming with temperatures around 75-77°C, and the PSU be quiet! Pure Power 11 CM, 80+ Gold, 600W. It seems like a small improvement, but I’m not sure if this CPU stock is suitable. In battlefield5, I got 68 vram at 55°C and 55°C CPU. I can confirm the maximum vram was around 60°C and cpu 40°C! I changed the voltage to +0000 and now it’s running at 70-73°C vram and 55°C CPU (3.8ghz).
1.3v on a 1600 works well for regular use. Temperatures below 85C are acceptable and won’t lead to lasting harm (AMD rates it safe up to 95C). This is mostly a matter of personal choice. The 88C on prime95 isn’t a concern either, since even the most demanding games won’t hit that level. Prime is useful for stability checks, but real-world testing in games will determine its reliability.
Thanks for the update! I understand now. Have a great day everyone! I'm running at 1.3v with 3.9ghz and it's stable on 88c vram—no need to increase it, as you mentioned. In games, this temperature won't reach, right? For Battlefield 5 specifically.
