Unable to reach 5GHz performance on the 5950X when using PBO.
You're asking for clarification on the specifics of the changes. It seems you want to know what adjustments are required, whether they're limited to PBO rules, and what values should be applied—specifically 400-300-300.
Keep auto limits at current levels, adjust the CPU boost clock override to +100 initially. Run HWinfo64 and perform basic tasks—games, CB, R15 single-core—to observe the maximum achievable boost.
Adjust any voltage or offset values back to their default unless they pertain to fclk/mclk. Navigate to PBO Advanced in the AMD overclocking area, not the Asus one at the start. Change PBO settings to Advanced mode. Ensure the curve optimizer is set to all core -30. Press escape to return to the PBO section. Choose Auto for PBO, which should eliminate options to modify ppt tdc edc scalars and similar features. Save and close. This should allow you to extend the full stock clock range. To surpass that, you’ll need to fine-tune your power configuration. Since you’re applying heavy restrictions, it’s understandable you’re not seeing results. This isn’t Zen2.
What options are available? You can adjust parameters like power, temperature, and clock speeds. For this setup, aim for 400-300-300 but avoid 400-300-300. Start with stock values: 142W PPT, 95A TDC, 140A EDC. Try running RAM under 3600 cycles with relaxed timing.
