Ryzen 3600 Cinebench Scores

Phil Smith · 7 Aug 2019 at 00:21

I thought it might be interesting to compare what Cinebench scores we are getting out of our 3600/3600Xs with our various configurations. I'll go first with what I have settled on:

CPU Frequency: 4200MHz (Manual OC)
CPU Voltage: 1.35V
PBO Enabled: No
AutoOC: N/A

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 C16
RAM Frequency: 3200MHz C14
Fabric Clock Frequency: 1600MHz

Windows Power Plan: Ryzen Balanced

Cinebench R20 (Multi Core): 3765
Cinebench R20 (Single Core): 472

Cinebench R15: 1661

Include any other info you think is relevant.

(I realise this is only one metric by which you can judge the performance of a CPU)

Well I can tell you now something is very off with the single core R20 score it should be in the 490-500 range.

Typo... corrected now.

Locked all core 4.15Ghz.

Same RAM as you but at the time at 2933Mhz 16-17-17-17, i just got a new BIOS for my board and quick testing shows i can now overclock it, currently at 3133Mhz with the same timings, i'm impressed that you got 3200Mhz CL14 out of yours, something to aim for when i have a proper play with it

3716
482

Let me know how you get on. I've not really played with my RAM settings too much at the moment so I'm basically using the XMP timings with adjusted clock speed so 14-20-20-20-38. Not sure whether to go for looser timings and higher speed or lower speed and tighter timings. The fiddling I have done hasn't really shown much of a performance differential in either direction.

What ram kit do you have.. link if you can please

3200mhz at cl14 is ok, but 14,20,20,20 is a joke.
The cl14 part is to pull people in that dont look at other timings, was it cheap?

Edit: also seen a think online about offsetting the fabric when you have slower ram. So set it to 1800 or try at go past some get upto 1950 and its will improve game performance

The information is all there in my post. I can't get the fabric clock beyond 1700MHz and have it run stably.

What's your SoC voltage? it needs to be a minimum of 1.1v, you can set it as high as 1.2v maximum and if necessary setting it closer to that may help.

Set it to 3200Mhz, same timings: 16-17-17-35, no issues, still playing, need to go do some work shortly tho.

Phil Smith · 7 Aug 2019 at 12:42

Cool, thanks. Cranked my SoC voltage to 1.175 and fabric clock to 1833MHz which seems to run nicely. Not really seeing any performance gains though. The best I can seem to do on my secondary timings is 16-19-19-19 (can't even boot to Windows with anything less than 19). My latency still doesn't seem great though:

Im running 1900Mhz on my IF fine at 1.125v SOC, and VDDG 1.1v. Its mainly RAM voltage you have to focus on. @Zeed testing indicates the same thing. I used to run higher SOC and VDDG but it does nothing for stability and just generates more heat.

What RAM voltage are you running? I have mine set to 1.37

For 3800Mhz C16 B Die I have to use around 1.47-48v. If I run 3733Mhz and 1866Mhz IF I need 1.45v. I can probably lower the timings or the voltage more but that is with tight sub timings.

It will change depending on your RAM kit, I just wanted to let everyone know that is not necessary to increase SOC and VDDG past those voltages because it does nothing for you.

humbug · 7 Aug 2019 at 14:23

Higher IF clocks will help with gaming performance.

3333Mhz 16-17-17-35 have not found the limit yet

Edit: 1.4v RAM

Thanks for clarifying. I seem to have IF steady at 1900MHz now with SoC at 1.15 and RAM voltage at 1.38. Would you suggest tightening timings at the expense of higher ram speed and or IF?

If your IF is stable at 1900Mhz then leave it at that. How much where you able to run your RAM at in terms of speed?

I'm at 3333 currently but haven't done a long stability test yet.

Well you certainly seem to have been luckier than me as my sub timings won't budge at all!

humbug · 7 Aug 2019 at 15:24

Won't boot at 3400Mhz.

I think i'll leave it at 3333Mhz as i don't want to loosen the timings over 16-17-17-35.

I'm happy with what i have

run a stability test using all of your ram with those timings?
