Hello, do you know anyone with a 3900x on an X370 Gaming Pro carbon? I’m planning to upgrade my 1600 atm 3.9 OC at 1.375V GOS to 1.4V with LLC level 1. The temperatures look fine on the board, staying under 60°C max. The CPU core and SOC power cap at 120W. My main concern is whether the VRM will get too hot—would adding a small fan help? Thanks ahead of time.

During the launch of the Ryzen 3000, some reviewers observed reduced default clock speeds on the X370. This might be due to the motherboard manufacturer having released a BIOS that supports the 3900X.

Most board bios work well and support the latest Agesa release.

ensure you're comfortable with heavy overclocking before proceeding

for a gaming setup i'd prefer a 3700x. it tends to handle boosts better on that board than the 3900x, giving you improved single-core performance for games.
