R5 3600 4.5Ghz OC @ 1.375v [all cores]

[DisturbedBonsai]

So I've just started playing around with overclocking my R5 3600 cpu and I have a relatively stable 4.5Ghz @ 1.375v all cores.

max temps don't go above 69 deg C

Cinebench R15 score of 1790 and R20 score of 4052

Can you recommend any other stability testing for this and is 1.375v all core an ok voltage or should I be looking to lower for long term stability?

I managed 4.55Ghz @ 1.4v and 70 deg C which ran Cinebench fine but didn't want to let games or Steam start up so brought it down a bit.

So what kind of voltages should I be looking for? Reading around I've seen 1.325 stock or 1.375 oc. In another place it said stay below 1.4 but the chip is rated to 1.5.

Thanks

So what I'm seeing is any voltage is potentially fine (up to the 1.4v max) so long as temps are controlled suitably?

I'm using a 360mm AIO cooler with idle temps in the 20s degC and max temps not going over 69-70 deg C under heavy CPU load.

I found RealBench a decent tool for stability testing my 3600 that doesnt murder the CPU like Small FFT Prime does. It will highlight errors if detected.

@Acolyte - Heres my bench. Need to do a stress test

@Acolyte - Stress test done and I can't find any errors mentioned anywhere

How long did you run it for? Id want at least 4 hours?

I only did a quick test. I'll run a longer one and see what happens
