Any device or drive should be fine with BCLK up to 105. And the sad truth is that 5% single core is a huge and unattainable overclock with latest CPUs.

I might have to try the 104 bclk. 3x nvme drives though... dunno if it's worth the risk
Possibly stock boost is below 4.7, limited by long term power limit. And the difference between stock and overclocked in that review is also ram. 2666 (cl14?) stock, 3466cl14 overclocked.

Tomshardware had an article up about... 3 weeks before Zen 2's release talking about "not being sure who was making the chipset"...
They tend not to be the most... collected (thoughts wise) site around.

The most annoying thing about PBO is that it doesn't expose the thermal limits, going on what people are saying it seems to be rather conservative when it comes to hitting maximum boost clocks.
IIRC when Steve was doing his 3900X LN2 OC'ing it would only boost by around 200Mhz when it was around 70°C under load and he had to get it down to 20°C to add another 200Mhz on top that, that means it's only boosting to half of what they say it's capable of even if you run sub-ambient. They either need to halve their boost claims or raise the thermal headroom so it actually gets closer to the boost clocks they claim.

You tried Changing using Ryzen master ??? Seems to be working on C7H

depends for who for me its worth it. I keep only system on my NVME if it dies it dies ill get newer faster better at lest will have reason to upgrade

anyone else notice ryzen 2 cpus have had a bump in price now?
edit gone down again, they had been bumped by £10+

Been fine with mine since last September.
As long as you increase in small increments it’s unlikely you’ll do any damage by upping the PCI-E speeds by such a small amount.
Try 101, then 101.5, etc.
About 103.5 on a 2700X pushes boosts up to 4.5Ghz, which is a nice boost TBH. You’re likely to crash before you do any irretrievable damage to an M2 drive.
Hoping these new chips can do the same.
Same here. OS is all I’ve got on an M2. Software is all on much larger SSD’s.
What increase does 101.8 get you on a 3900X?
Yes , without pbo enabled, locked at 141 /95/140, switching to PBO in Ryzen Master, upping the values, applying, then moving to manual with PBO off doesnt seem to keep the high limits and doesnt boost etc. So on Taichi as far as i can see you can only up those values by having PBO on .. but it might not be PBO doing the boosting .. unless i've misunderstood the GN video.

Have never got my x470 Taichi to BCLK even at 101, have an NVME m2 and 4 SSDs and understood it would probably not be possible ? Maybe worked on older Bios from some vague posts on Reddit.

Well i guess i just like overclocking CPU's and GPU's.. RAM and other stuff can stay at stock, i'm not trying to break any records here
Surprising, your X470 mobo is much better than my X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming.
I couldn’t even use XMP for my RAM @ 3200 with 8pack B-die, had to dial it all in manually instead. My M2 is also an NVME, SSD’s are all SATA.
Had it at BCLK 103.5 at one point but eventually left at 102.8 24/7 which is as near as dammit 4.5Ghz.
