Solved 3900x PBO with Auto OC for Ryzen Master
Hi Guys,
I downloaded ryzen master and followed the auto OC steps, then applied and tested. Before starting, I went into BIOS and enabled Precision Boost Overdrive. The computer booted up and Ryzen Master completed its test, showing a maximum boost of 4750 MHz per core. That seems way too high for a 3900X processor—did I make a mistake somewhere?

I've been testing my 3700x for a few weeks and the best performance I've achieved is 4.415 for just a short time. These chips are very sensitive to temperature and tend to slow down when things get too hot. They can operate at lower voltages, but they prefer higher ones. Running it at 1.385 volts works fine, but it rarely goes above 4.3. However, with the motherboard's auto voltage setting, it can easily reach the 4.4 range for a brief period—provided the temperature stays below 50 degrees. (this is only true for one core). If you upgrade the cooling and apply more voltage, you might see it hit its rated speed again, though it's still subject to silicon variability.
I've never seen such a high max before, yet it seems to claim it can go up to 4.7ghz suddenly. PBO and Auto OC don't seem that impressive, especially with the voltage being so high. This is my very first Ryzen CPU, so please forgive my lack of experience.
That 4750mhz isn't real-world. It represents the "maximum boost clock theoretically possible," much like Nvidia GPU boosting.
Apply a load, and observe the actual speeds.
Have you looked into using Ryzen Master? I suggest searching online and watching tutorials about AutoOC to run it properly.
