do you have any overclocking profiles for the ryzen 5 1600 ax370 gaming 5 and your 8 pack dark pro 16gb 3200 ram edition at all please ?

8 Pack · 5 Dec 2017 at 16:16

No not for that combination. Only taichi and crosshair.

marco.da.man · 5 Dec 2017 at 16:28

ok thanks for reply, shame really as seems a popular board

Hello, where in the bios do I do this? I have the file on usb. I’ve tried it in the profile menu but when I select the File it tells me it’s invalid?

Thanks

The last option save and exit. It's a sub menu there. Can post exact instructions tomorrow.

Not to worry, Ive managed to load your profile up now and pc running at 4.8 now, just a quick question am I right I’m saying the the cpu throttles down when pc is idle? Or should 4.8 be a consonant on cpu-z. Sorry I’m a bit of a novice at this Overclocking.

You're correct, will throttle down when idling to reduce load on CPU, you can turn this off but there is no real point in doing so if you ask me.

can you please tell me how I no iv done it right iv saved file on bios but when I check its still on 4.2 via right click my pc ?

Variable · 10 Dec 2017 at 14:27

You need to load the profile, once it's loaded you exit bios, it will ask you to quit and save or quit without saving, quit and save. The OC will run when you reboot, works a treat very happy with the bundle purchase. Nice bit of kit.

blaster2018 · 10 Dec 2017 at 15:30

ive loaded the profile done that but it still shows 4,2 when you right click my pc

Variable · 10 Dec 2017 at 15:49

Where is it telling you it's 4.2? In the system, I'll have a look at my pc later.

Variable · 10 Dec 2017 at 18:43

In my system information it's says 4.2 i assume that's what the cpu is defined as but this is not the current clock speed. Download cpu z and load up YouTube or something to get your cpu working you will see the clock so top out at 4.8.

Run a stress test and have cpu-z or some other monitoring software running at the same time so you can see if the clockspeed increases. Windows just shows the cpu's stock speed, Windows 10 does with mine anyway. A properly setup overclock will only kick in when the cpu is under load.

This profile isn't for the 6700k bundle from last year is it?
