Checking the limits of your CPU and RAM is important, especially with the Ryzen 5 1400. I’m also curious about the best ways to overclock them safely, especially since this is my first time doing it. I plan to use Ryzen Master for the CPU tuning.

It's hard to determine the exact performance gains from overclocking, as results vary greatly depending on the processor. You should gradually increase the settings, adding more until your system shows signs of instability. After that, revert to the most stable configuration. Overclocking tutorials and videos are widely available online.

There is significant performance enhancement possible by switching to a paired pair of two 8GB DIMMs (2 x 8GB). Using single-channel RAM negatively impacts Ryzen efficiency.

I understand the situation but I'm struggling financially and can't afford new parts. My main concern is overclocking, so do you have any suggestions regarding RAM?
