Hi all

Currently in the process of Overclocking my Ryzen 2600... i have it a 4ghz @1.425v just want to know if anyone else on here has a 2600 and have Overclocked it... it will be nice to know what others have done

My system specs

Ryzen 2600
Msi b450 mortar max
16gb 3000mhz Corsair Vengeance
Radeon 5700 8gb (undervolted)
Corsair TX550m

Cheers

Hi, wow that seems like a lot of voltage for 4ghz. Does it get hot?

I'm at 4.1ghz all cores and using 1.34v

Have you tried that Corsair vengeance at 3200 or 3400mhz?

I have Vengeance 2666mhz and its running at 3200mhz without issue at 1.35v
I also have a 5700 and a Corsair PSU and until recently that same Kingston SSD!

I've only enabled XMP/DOCP for the RAM which put it to 2933mhz..

I had it at lower voltage on the CPU but after so long in game it would black screen

I have a 2600 and should really think about trying to overclock it!

Did you guys use Ryzenmaster or the BIOS?

I use Ryzen master, seems like great software to use...

I did mine in the BIOS, it required to less voltage to get mine stable..

What temps do you get when running full load or gaming?

In game at stock clocks i'm getting highest temp reading of 44'c

Thats pretty cool, have you tried 4.1ghz at that voltage?

I will give it a go... When I fired up the PC today my profile didn't load and went back to stock clocks and voltage, even though I clicked apply yesterday, any ideas why it may have done that?

I thought it did this every time? I thought you had to manually load the profile in Ryzen master each time you load into windows. Is there a way to make it load into it automatically?

That's a pain if I have to load it each time.. I'm not sure how to set it so it stays overclocked, maybe in the BIOS?

I'm not certain on that as I've only really used RM for testing, maybe someone else here can correct me if i'm wrong?

Yes I'd definitely try it in the BIOS. I'd start with x40 (4ghz) and try lower voltage, maybe 1.35 ish?
I can't set the actual CPU voltage in mine, just an offset, so + 0.1v for you.
If it's not stable I'd click the voltage up and try again until solid.

If it turns out to be stable you know the drill, try lower voltage or higher speeds!

The wording is probably different in your BIOS but on my Gigabyte X470 board I also changed a couple of things from auto;

Dynamic Vcore SOC(DVID) +0.030v
CPU VDDP +0.020v

I will give this ago in the BIOS and set the voltage abit lower to start with... I only used the 1.425v as that is what someone had done on a YouTube video and he also had his 2600x at those voltages

Yeah it's fine to take someone's setup as a starting point, I mean I've just told you to do the same, but your chip might be loads better at overclocking than his, so it might manage his speed with much lower voltage. My personal feeling is that I wouldn't use above 1.4v for for 24/7 usage. Others may completely disagree with me so it's what you're happy with.

I first got mine stable at 4.1ghz using 1.36v then I clicked down 1 adjustment on the voltage, used PC for a week, stressed tested, then less voltage and so on. It was 3 or 4 clicks until I got a crash and went back up 1 click on the voltage. Its 1.334v now and seems fine.

I would go to 4.2ghz except it seems to need several clicks more voltage to make that small jump and the actual gains are small.
