Hi everyone, I just upgraded the R5 2600 to an MSI B350M mortar instead of using a Ryzen 3 2200G (OC 3.9GHZ daily). Usually I set it to 3.9GHZ. Is this safe for regular use with these mainboard accessories?

So, just as I mentioned earlier, you should treat it like any other overclocking situation. Honestly, the B350 and X370 are definitely behind the newer chipset boards.

However, this was with an 8-core part, so your 6-core model should be fine. But I’d still suggest a better cooler if you plan to run a full-time 3.9Ghz overclock. If your case has good cooling, you might manage with the stock cooler at that speed. The only option is to try it out and see if thermal issues arise—then you’ll know whether you need improved case or CPU cooling.
