What are the top BIOS adjustments for your CPU aimed at improving frame rate?
Hi
I'm looking for advice on optimizing my CPU settings for better performance. I have a Ryzen 5700X, stream casually mainly Valorant, and have 32GB RAM with a CORSAIR ICUE H100i ELITE cooler. I'd appreciate any suggestions on BIOS tweaks that could help boost FPS.

BIOS version for your motherboard at this time.
I stream mainly on Valorant.
What platform do you use for streaming?
Activate XMP for RAM
Set PBO in BIOS settings
Apply negative values in the Curve Optimizer for precise CPU voltage and temperature management. Usually range from -10 to -20.

Ryzen is already at its limit when paired with PBO, standard optimization only increases temperature. Changing the processor and RAM separately does not affect each other.
There isn't much trouble yet, just set PBO in BIOS, it's a straightforward adjustment.
On my system I have the negative offset at -30 across 6 cores, -20 on the second place silver core and -15 on the first place core with a +200mhz boost. PPT 120 TDC 80 EDC 120. Applying -30 to all cores was causing WHEA errors. What CL is your RAM? Some Samsung B die can run quite low TRC numbers which can help add a few frames per second.
