Good Post some that dont do all core Overclock can find it USefull
[QUUnignoreOTE=EZ_PC_TECH;782128]OK. So, the latest BIOS really improved performance, but not clocks. Here are several things that can help to maximize performance(not frequency):
1) Set all C-states to ENABLED(not just global, but ALL).
2) Set negative voltage offset. For me, -0.075 worked the best.
3) When using a negative voltage offset, it's OK to set LLC to max level and then look for the lowest voltage that will keep the system stable without degrading performance. This way you'll have low idle temps and stable system.
4) Turn OFF PBO. It's in most useless for now and actually reduce the performance
5) Use default Performance Enhancer
6) If you can't post with 07 Q-code, this is most likely your FCLK. Set SOC offset to +0.025-0.05(Find the lowest that will work). It also will help if you are OCing FCLK to match your RAM frequency.
7) Test your OC with Cinebench R20 multi-core AND single-core. This is the fastest way to check the stability, and if your system passes 3 runs, it most likely will pass anything.
P.S.: I was able to push my 3700X to 4550, but it requires more voltage, and we will hit the thermal limit sooner than chip will become unstable. It means, that we unlikely will see that +200Mhz that many people expect to see, not because the processor can't achieve it, but because you'll need 360mm AIO to keep temps under control with let's say 1.55V; However, the returns can't justify the power consumption, heat, and cost of cooling solution.
