As above I have the 1600 with msi x370 pro gaming carbon

When.ever I try any sort or Overclocked at all the clocks sit at 1500mhz and never go above until I do a full reset on of the bios and load optimised defaults.


Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong.

mmm strange as im on the beta bios so i will upgrade to 1.7
but i have put the cpu voltage to 1.4 x40 multi and upped soc to 1.1v
got my 3000mhz ram @2933... done some cinebench bit of encoding and played games and it's been fine, i'm even thinking of dropping the volts :)

any volts i manually imput over about 1.29 automatically downclocks all cores to 1500 x15

have you tried to run the OC with your ram at 2133mhz just to see if that has an effect?
Or even 2400, 2666mhz?

yes tried every combo you can think of and literally everything is rock solid until i manually input volvts.

4.2 auto runs 3 or 4 runs of cinebench easy with 1.368 auto volts yet 3.2 @1.295v results in an instant 15x and 1.5 core speed

So why not just settle on 4.0/4.1ghz on 1.368v? A lot of people would be very happy with that overclock.

The added benefit of being on auto volts is that the chip will clock down and undervolt when idle (just make sure you ahve selected Ryzen Balanced or Balanced power profile).

i can only run my ram at 2133 and i would really like to have control over volts etc as i have no idea what they upvolt to. hwmonitor shows a max og 1.45 which is way too high for my liking
 
HWmonitor showed my vcore peaking at 2.1-2.7v I was worried, so i used something else and that reported a normal vcore. I recomend more than one monitoring software incase its reporting BS.
