You can overclock the Ryzen 7 1700 using the Wraith Spire.

It is currently operating at 3.0 GHz as designed, and you are considering increasing it to a minimum of 3.6 GHz.

Nope, not Ryzen Master... need the manual in BIOS. Switch to expert OC mode. Locate CPU multiplier and set to 36 first. Set VCore voltage to 1.3v. Save and exit, check for boot. If it boots, download Prime95 and run a stress test. Monitor CPU temperature with Ryzen Master; if above 85, stop the test. If it doesn’t boot, turn off PSU when the PC is off (it will restart automatically after a few seconds), remove the CMOS battery for 30 seconds, then reinsert. Turn on the PSU, wait 15 seconds, press power—BIOS will reset. Adjust VCore voltage by about 0.0125 and repeat. Aim for stable OC speed with minimal voltage. Let me know if you need anything else.

3.6-3.8 should work fine.
What motherboard are you using?
Could you clarify the steps needed in Ryzen Master for this setup?
Also, it seems you're using an MSI x370.

If it does, download Prime95 and run a stress test, monitoring CPU temperature with Ryzen Master. Stop the test if temperature exceeds 85°C. If it doesn’t boot, turn off the PSU when the PC is off (it will shut down automatically, giving a few seconds before restart). Remove the CMOS battery for 30 seconds, then reinsert and power on. Wait 15 seconds, press power, BIOS will reset. Increase VCore voltage by about 0.0125 and repeat. Aim for stable OC speed with minimal voltage. Let me know if you need help. Ty, I’ll try tomorrow!
