Ryzen 3600 safe voltage?

[deama]

So I'm trying to overclock my 3600 to 4.4 or even higher Ghz. So far I managed to get it to 4.2Ghz at 1.3v (smt disabled), however I heard that if you go above 1.3v on ryzen 3xxx, it will noticeably reduce the lifespan on the CPU. Is this true though? Cause from some people I hear they go up to 1.4v with no probs.

My cooling is fine I think, I have a Noctua NH-D15S CPU cooler, and I have also installed 2 system fans that push cool air into the CPU, in addition to having a fan on the otherside of the case that pushes air outside of the case. I get about 45 degrees on idle and 50-60 when CPU is used a lot.

How long have you had that 3600, 1.3v for 4.2ghz seems quite high.

I got mine in march. Trying to go 4.3ghz isn't stable at 1.3v.

mine goes to just over 1.3 on auto settings 4.2 ghz boost, first i've heard over 1.3 volts damages ryzen ? I thought smt on was good for multithread

1.3v damages ryzen 3xxx series, that's what I heard, wanted to ask guys here and see if it's actually true.
I disabled smt to reduce my latencies, it reduced some of my latencies by half, and allowed me to overclock to 4.2gz instead of 4.1ghz, not much of an increase but I did notice about 4-8ms less input lag from measuring with a high speed camera too.
Kinda confused about why I get less input lag from higher clock speed, but I do at least understand why disabling smt gave me another 4ms (about) boost.

ryzen on auto will hit 4.2ghz I think the disabling smt thing at best gains about 1%
Most people I think are leaving it on auto and amd power plan 99% min cpu state 100% max cpu state.
The reading software seems still all up in the air nobody knows whats going on me included.

I don't think hwinfo is accurate is it and the max voltage peaks on that can be mini spikes and i dont think ryzen master will record max voltage you have to sit there watching ryzen master to see whats going on

depends what you're talking about as my 3600 stays around 095 -1v outside of major usage
everythings on auto in my bios apart from dram voltage 1.35v and ram timings

and use the amd power plan included in the chipset drivers is the way ive been told to run a ryzen 3600

I just ran cinebench all core mines hitting 1.38 volts according to ryzen master but everything in my bios is on auto.I was reading undervolting offset or manual voltage can harm them ?

I was going off of the bios CPU voltage that you can set my bios voltage is at 1.3v, but when I'm in windows and running the CPU on cinebench, I get 1.284v (I disabled power plans and boosting) on CPU-Z.

1.3v does not damage Ryzen chips.

I don't understand why people come up with such random facts. They seem to pass through word of mouth.

I'd be interested to know @deama where you heard this.

The 3600 historically hasn't been the best binned chip. 1.3v to get 4.2ghz isn't that unusual. You may also find that the infinity fabric won't clock as high as other chips either.

Even on the better binned 3600X chips, a prime95 stable ~4.3ghz is often the ceiling without pumping high voltages.

You can check Matisse binning rates below.

I heard this from another forum from a guy who got his to 4.0ghz @ 1.275v and he didn't want to go higher cause of that power thing I said, so wasn't too sure as this is my first time with amd.

And voltages don't damage chips, currents do.

Can you change the currents in the bios?

So my ryzen 3600 outputs 65W at ~1.28v, does that mean I can push it higher because the current is low enough? HWMonitor even says it uses only 31A at peak, though I don't know how accurate that is, or if even the 65W reading is accurate.
