Ryzen 5 1600 Overclocking Problems on AIDA64
Ryzen 5 1600 Overclocking Problems on AIDA64
Hi, I'm working on overclocking my Ryzen 5 1600 with the stock cooler. It's currently running at 3.8GHz and 1.35625V. I've slowly increased the speed but haven't exceeded 3.8GHz yet. Using AIDA64 stress testing, I notice no high temperatures, but after about two and a half hours, my display freezes, and both keyboard and mouse stop responding even when I plug them back in. Is this a crash in AIDA64? Should I keep raising the voltage or lowering the speed until it stabilizes?
vapour :
what mb is it? Monitor your CPU temp right before freezing and report back. PSU model? Try decrease your voltage a little bit and see if anything changes. If 3.8 is not stable with lower voltage, try 3.7 and see if anything changes.
My motherboard is the Asus ROG Strix B350-F, and my PSU is the Corsair RMx 650W. I tried 3.8GHz at 1.35625V and it's still going now after 3 hours. The current temperature is 76, which I think is pretty good considering it was left in a hot room for two hours as I accidentally left the radiator on.
After a crash, AIDA reports when the program crashes and what the temperature was at the time of the crash, but it isn't much use as the temperature reported in AIDA isn't correct for some reason.
If this test keeps going past 5 hours is it ok to say that it is stable?
It should work for about five hours. Continue with normal gaming and let me know if you encounter any crashes again. The PSU is performing well. If the test succeeds after five hours and gaming runs smoothly, you can keep it as is or consider slightly reducing the voltage to improve cooling.
Hi Guys
I increased the clock to 3.8GHz at 1.35V and ran a stress test for more than six hours without any issues. Recently, I've noticed my PC often needs several boot attempts before starting, which wasn't the case before. Additionally, in NZXT Cam I see temperature changes between 33 and 46 degrees while idle. I'm also experiencing crashes in Rainbow 6 Siege after about 15 minutes of playtime (this started this evening). Do you think these problems are related to my overclock? Should I adjust voltage or clock speed?
