Hey there, this is my debut post, and usually I just look for solutions, but I’m struggling to find the right help. After switching from my Ryzen 5 1600 to the new Ryzen 7 2700 on Monday, I’ve been trying to tackle this overclocking challenge. I’m aiming for a steady 4.0ghz with BIOS, but it’s not working out. The only way I can get close is by adjusting the vcore to +0.300. Checking the voltages suggests I’d need another +0.012 for stability at that frequency, but that’s not possible since the max is capped at +0.300.

I tried Ryzen Master with a vcore of 1.31875 and it worked fine. Running Prime95 for over 18 hours without any issues was smooth. From the voltage/hwinfo, setting +0.300 in BIOS gives an exact offset of +0.012, which seems to line up perfectly. That’s either a good sign or just a lucky guess—lol.

I’m not sure what I’m doing, but after analyzing the numbers, it makes sense. At stock voltage, fluctuations reach 1.404, but even at +0.076 it only hits around 1.008v. To reach 1.25, I’d need to go into 200-second bursts. Should I really be pushing this far? Or should I consider getting a new board? I’m curious about why I’m seeing these results.

The power supply on early B350 boards was inconsistent. It's possible you've hit your board's limits.
