ryzen 1700 oc help plz
I built my PC a few months ago with a B350 tomahawk, updated the BIOS and installed a Ryzen 1700. I'm struggling to reach 3.2ghz without it restarting and resetting the CMOS. Do you have any suggestions?
did you raise the VCore voltage as well? If not, proceed gradually. For example, starting at 3.0G @ 1.2v, try 1.25v for 3.2G. Use AIDA64/real bench stress test to check stability. If 1.25v doesn't work, increase slowly, keeping it below 1.45v and ensuring the CPU stays under 85°C during load.

I was hoping I wouldn't need to change the voltage from something like 3.0 to 3.1, as the auto would handle it.
Auto may cause your CPU to work too much and isn't ideal in the long term. Carefully adjusting the voltage is the safest approach to maintain stability.
