The title clearly states the situation.
I own an ASUS TUF B450M Plus gaming motherboard and a NZXT T120RBG air cooler with two fans.
I'm facing difficulties overclocking on a 400 series motherboard, despite watching many YouTube videos about 500 series options.

I am on bios 3802 which supports the latest 5000 cpus. RAM: Corsair Vengeance 3000mhz CL15. SSD: WD Blue 500gb x2. GPU: RTX 3070. PSU: Corsair 650mx. Case: NZXT H400i. OS: Windows 10. The videos I watched showed PBO2 changes across 500 mobos, but many options aren't available. Currently I'm using Ryzen Master with my CPU running at 4.35ghz at 1.3v stable. I'm mainly using it to study more about overclocking.

Compare the current performance and record the results. Consider revisiting the stock, executing the curve optimizer, testing offsets, and applying a 100-200 MHz increase. Continue testing and evaluate the best outcomes.

What specific choices are available? Even with a B450, using the newest BIOS and 5000 series CPU, you should have all PBO/PBO2 options with Curve Optimizer settings accessible. You might not find every setting on a G-suffix processor, which is an APU. Some manufacturers, in certain BIOS updates, could restrict the settings they show in their overclocking areas, such as Asus' TweakUI. The issue might be that you're missing the AMD overclocking section—look into the sub-menus to locate it. You'll recognize it when it displays a warranty disclaimer for overclocking that you must accept. This part contains the most comprehensive settings. After locating it, stick to that section only.

Hey there,
It's better to use the bios for OC. Ryzen master works, but bios-based changes are preferred.
Run the CPU with PBO + CO for optimal outcomes. The CO (Curve Optimiser) is usually tucked away in the bios menu, at least on my Asus B550 Prime.
You might also try CTR 2.1 or Project Hydra to fine-tune the CPU. CTR 2.1 gave results very close to PBO + CO for my 5600x CPU.
All cores are around 4.65ghz, with half at 4.85ghz.
You can also set the scalar to X10 and adjust the CPU clocks by +200 (or any value you prefer, as long as it makes sense). Start with 100, then increase if needed—just don't go higher than that.
