5800x PBO won't boost past stock

Clairvoyant · 14 Jun 2022 at 22:15

Hi im not used to this AMD overclocking.
The last I OC'd was a 3770k lol.

So I've set the TDC,EDC,PPT in the BIOS (stock setting. I've done a negative 25 on each core. It will run cinbench 23 multicore fine. 4375mhz I've then added anything from 50 to 200 MHz, and it doesn't change the clock. The TDC,EDC,PPT are all in the mid 66%.

I just don't know why it won't boost higher

Please help a noob.

Check your temps, Might be throttling

Also what is your single core boost?

Temps are fine. Single core doesn't look like it's boosting either.

Make sure voltage is set to auto, in fact all you need to set is pbo and curve optimizer, everything else can stay stock, oh add the 200mhz on the o/c

Event 18 or 19?

Leave everything at default and consider an undervolt. It's absolutely not worth trying to OC Zen chips.

Before setting negative 25 in the curve optimiser did you check lower negative settings? If not start at 0 and work down untill you can get the highest negative number without errors.
