Hi guys, in my second build I have a Ryzen 5600 and I think I have a Golden Sample in my hands. I wanted to discuss with you to understand if there is still room for improvement even though I doubt it.
As soon as I got it, I immediately created a PBO profile with custom TDC EDC PPT and curve optimizer. For fun, I set -30 on all cores and increased the boost limit to +200 MHz, reaching 4,650 MHz. When testing on Cinebench, I immediately saw that it was boosting consistently to 4,650 MHz even during the test, maintaining a temperature of around 55 degrees in full load. From there, I started testing with corecycler, OCCT, and anything that could bring out errors. NOTHING. The CPU showed no signs of weakness, no errors, and no random restarts. Of course, I am aware that -30 on all cores is unrealistic for most CPUs, but this chip I believe is the exception. We're talking about tests over 6 months, not two days, just to be clear.
From that moment on, I decided to discard the PBO for the limit of 4,650, as this chip can give much more. Without documenting all the tests, I found stability at 1.35v LLC5 (on Asus mobo) 4.8 GHz all core. Again, any test passed without any problems, with the highest temperature recorded during the various tests being 72 degrees.
I decided to push it further, finding stability at 4.85 MHz but I would have had to raise it to 1.4v to make it 100% stable under any load, but it didn't seem necessary. In medium/light loads, even in video games, I was able to keep it stable at 4.9 GHz at 1.38v (No cinebench, only OCCT on medium/light loads).
5 GHz with any voltage doesn't even get into Windows. I also tried with BCLK, but nothing.
My question is: Is there a way, a custom BIOS that removes the 4,650 limit of PBO? I would like to try it to Boost it to 5 GHz. The CPU always maintains very low temperatures. It's absurd!
Also, what do you think? Is it actually a Golden Sample or can most of these 5600s push this far?
Thanks to everyone. Sorry for my bad english.
