Hello,
I got ryzen 5 1600 a couple of days ago. I m pretty happy with it so far. I am pretty new at overclocking and after several guides i gave it a try. Motherboard is Asus b350-f strix and a 16gb corsair 2666 kit. Results i got look pretty good so i don't know if i made a mistake or i am that lucky.
For ram i just used DOCP to 2666 and worked just fine and did a test with no errors.
For overclocking things i changed on mobo were:
At DIGI+VRM
VDDCR Load Line Calibration at Medium
Soc Load Line Calibration at Regular
VDDCR CPU VOLTAGE + 0.00625 offset (1.243V i see on cpu-z)
Disabled EPU Power Saving Mode
Disabled Core Performance Boost
Disabled Global C-State Control
After some attempts cpu reached 3.9 Ghz on that voltage which from the guides i seen seems low. Pc at 4 Ghz on same voltage froze at 1st cinebench r15 try.
I have done a couple IBT 10passes on high and one 10pass at very high.I did a prime95 all night stress with no errors. Idle temp is around 30 C and max i hit during stress was 73 C. Is there anything else i need do to consider this OC stable or do any of the things i changed is wrong?
I would appreciate your feedback since i am pretty new to this

Lol... you're correct. The app messed up the main numbering sequence. It's never happened before. Those temperatures are quite good given you're using the stock cooler. I've noticed the Wraith performs exceptionally well even with a stock cooler.
71C feels a bit hot, but you won't reach that level often in regular use. And 3.9GHz is acceptable. My 1600X reached its top speed around 4GHz with my Corsair H60.
Ryzen Master seems to give the best results for reliable performance. Although I've seen HWInfo match the RM findings.

I'm checking how I view the CPU temperatures and whether those are core temperatures. Also, which cooler was included with your 1600?

I looked at the temperatures from CPUID HWMonitor and Ryzen Master. The Wraith spire cooler readings are core temps. Are there any unusual numbers?

I don't understand how that screenshot came from a stress test. The CPU utilization seems very low, almost not running at all.
Second, why is there a CPU#13? A 6C/12T processor doesn't have a 13th virtual core (thread).
Finally, I notice no core temperatures listed—just a package temperature, which is even oddly low.

I'm sorry this was just a standard screenshot...this is during the 10th pass in IBT. If you include core#6 and core#7, they are 12 total. Are there any other monitoring apps you recommend? Ryzen Master shows the same temperature as the package temp.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I've never experienced such high levels during regular use; gaming usually tops around 50%. For daily or gaming sessions, what temperature do you think is ideal? 50-60°C? Also, with an 1600x 4GHz setup, it sounds great. Thanks again!

you've never seen that high with normal use, gaming hits around 50ish. What's your ideal temperature for daily or gaming use? 50-60C? 1600x 4ghz sounds great. Thanks again
AMD tends to avoid setting their processors' maximum core temperatures, but any modern chip should handle 60C.
