Upgrade Ryzen 3 3300X to 4.6GHz voltages
Upgrade Ryzen 3 3300X to 4.6GHz voltages
I decided to test the actual safe voltages for Ryzen myself. I set everything to auto on the BIOS and used only Ryzen Master to manage it. I ran at stock settings, which showed voltages of 1.388 for all cores with 4.25GHz, 1.25V at 4.55GHz, and 1.325V at 4.6GHz. Since I was recording with OBS, the numbers were lower than the real values. The video you mentioned is helpful for reference. Without recording, the readings were around 2820.

The exact quality of silicon matters, so using just one chip doesn’t prove the issue. With this kind of heavy overclock, you shouldn’t be surprised if higher voltages are needed.
they apply too much voltage for the clock 4.4 but works fine at 1.1v, only 1.388 at 4.25 that's quite strange
You have flexibility in adjusting your system settings. Running stock at 1.1v works well, but AMD must consider the least powerful chips that require higher voltage for stable performance at their claimed speed. You should also check the voltage when the system is under load since it isn't constant. My 3700X operates between 1.4-1.5V when idle and about 1.1V during full-core load with stock configurations.
You're asking about the specific advantages of using this Ryzen chip. Since overclocking isn't common for it, you're likely interested in how its memory performance can be enhanced.
