Hey, I would like to ask, if there is an option to overclock this CPU the way that it boosts higher then out of the box max turbo boost? I'm currently running all core OC 4.3GHz at 1,3V but I don't like it because I don't need this performance all the time and it's unnecessary load for the fans and pc overall. I only need it when I play more CPU demanding games like World of Warcraft or Kingdom Come Deliverance. So my question is: is there a way to let my CPU behave as out of the box so it will run most of the time 3.6GHz base frequency but it will boost more than default 4.2GHz during turbo boost? Btw I'm completely new to OC so keep it in mind during explanation please.
My specs are:
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
MB: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX
Cooler: Noctua NH-D15
RAM: DDR4 3200MHz

Remove the CPU OC entirely and allow the CPU to choose when to increase its frequency.
This is why turbo boost reaches 4.2 Ghz instead of higher values like 4.5 or 5.0 on the R5 3600. If you need a frequency beyond the maximum turbo capacity, you must adjust it manually, as done previously. This approach eliminates the automatic or adaptive frequency adjustments that are the default setting.
However, if you specifically require an adaptive turbo of 4.3 Ghz, consider upgrading your CPU. For example, the R5 5600X has a base clock of 3.7 Ghz but can turbo up to 4.6 Ghz.

Or any other Ryzen 5000-series CPU whose turbo clocks match your expectations, see the full list here: https://www.amd.com/en/products/processo...3644d4-tab

So there is no possible way to boost just the turbo boost by some multiplier or something?

Yes, you can try.
The stability depends on the factors involved.
You might increase the multiplier or apply a 200-300-400 boost setting in the BIOS on many systems.
Refer to the AMD overclocking documentation.

Sure, I can clarify further. The multiplayer setting is referred to as "Boost Override" and you can locate it by navigating to the appropriate section of the interface. The 200-300-400- override is a specific configuration option within that setting.

Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) will always stop at the maximum boost clocks set by a CPU. It might extend the time before the boost is lost, but it won’t reach the performance level OP desires. The most accurate guide would be Steve from GamersNexus, who provides a detailed breakdown of PB, PB2, and PBO. Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7NzNi1xX_4

My Prime x 570 supported both overclocking options. I chose a raised multiplyer and kept PBO off, using my standard 3600 clock.
