still no problem 
Hey, I understand this is an old thread revival.. but it would be interesting to see where people are at with their systems now?
Any premature system deaths or still going strong.
I'm running 1700x at 4.0ghz @ 1.375v on MSI 370x using mode 1 LLC and I'm only seeing around 65-68 degrees max at full load was looking to push to 4.2 GHz to see it a worthwile OC, but I'm dubious about pushing to 1.45v
I'm running XMP profile 2 on my ram and seems good, I suspect that I'm unable to push further at current voltage due to ram speeds..
Again sorry for the revival but I feel it's always good to see how people did over time
**Edit I put wrong load temps of cpu (according to HWiNFO64)

I'd be amazed if you get 4.2 with only 1.45v.
1.45v is fine tbh. It's not like you will keep this chip for 10 years.
I've been running a 12nm 2600X at 1.4v now for 7 months. No hint that it is degrading.
I don't think I had any of the Ryzen 1xxx chips for more than 6 months though, so can't say what harm 1.4v+ did to them. With the original chips, I'm sure even at stock for single/dual core XFR it would hit close to 1.5v. All core voltage would obviously be a lot lower to keep within TDP.

Tbh, I was being a bit optimistic..
When I used my hardware overclocking feature I was hitting nearly 1.48v at 3.8ghz but I was getting quite hot idle temps. Hence moving to bios overclocking. I'm using the Cooler Master 240 currently, I suppose really what I was looking for was any opinions at running at 1.45v+ to break 4.0ghz.
Should I look to increase my SoC too? It's currently on auto setting and it's found itself at 1.144v
I'm not an expert at overclocking but I don't feel I'm an idiot, I'm unsure at the next steps to reach a stable 4.2ghz overclocking.. is there other settings then the Vcore I should be changing to support it?

SoC don't go above 1.2v, but that's mainly required to get the memory stable.
If you can bring that down then that may provide some headroom in terms of power consumption and heat to get higher.
I've definitely done 1.5v before just for benchmarking, but I probably wouldn't recommend that. Aim to get 4.1 stable with 1.45v or below if you really want to get the last drop of performance for regulat usage.

Thanks for replying again muon, I think realistically speaking.. this is the threshold with my current setup. I had an old fully watetcooled system, I have 75% of the parts required for this system..
I've just ordered the other parts and will go twin loop water-cooling, then I may push higher but if I want a decent 4.0ghz+ I may have to switch CPU...
Been looking at the 2600.. but may look at the 2600+

With all my Ryzen CPUs I've found I hit a wall way before 1.4v, anything over this has diminishing returns so much so are reserve for benchmark e-peening only.
Also, with SoC only one required more than 1.1v (1.125v), if you find you need more, then something else isn't right.

Just wait till Ryzen 3000 chips. Massive clock bump.
No.
hard to call it news when AMD said AM$ will be all good till 2020
Don't go above 1.2v on the SOC, anything upto that point is fine 24/7.
