Share your Ryzen 1600 Overclock here

Running 1600 @ 3.8ghz with voltage at 1.25 all set to Auto.

My Teamgroup Nighthawk RGB memory is running at 3200 XMP profile with a slight bump to 1.4V.

Happy keeping everything simple and for the minimal gains I will actually get it won't be worth my time.

What kind of temps are you getting?

This is mine, I seem to have a fantastic chip, been rock solid at this voltage. Have stressed it under OCCT for an hour and played three hour game marathons and it still hasn't fallen over. @GinG
 
1600 @3.8 1.35v

Had to bump up the cpu fan profile as it was getting quite hot. 55C on idle and around the 70s in games.

After tweaking the fan profile it’s been idling at 35-45C and around 55-65C ingame. I’m really not happy about this as the pc is quite loud now even at idle temps.

This is using the stock cpu cooler

Around 55 - 60 when stressing with CPUZ and around 50 with AIDA64.

I use a Coolermaster MasterCase Lite RGB case so airflow isn't the best either.

I've got mine at 3.7 and it's around 30-35 idle and using Aida64 it gets to ~70 and that's using stock cooler.

I did use a stock cooler but the buzzing noise it made drove me mad as the rest of the system is silent.

Idle is around 30 - 35. I think I could get much lower temps if I had a better airflow but not bothered as prefer form over function...have plenty of headroom.

I am happy at 3.8ghz and not bothered with tinkering around to get up to 4.0ghz, with the case I think I may struggle.
 
The several attempts to boot or likely down do it failing ram training. Had the same issue on the crosshair. It's either put up with it or lower than ram/slacken the timings.
Yeah, I've decided to just leave it alone. The tighter RAM timings are going to have more of a performance benefit than an extra 50MHz or whatever.

Think i might have lucked out with my Ryzen 1600 so far, I am on a budget build with a b350 Matx gigabyte board (Using my old Corsair H100i Cooler) and my CPU is sitting @4ghz @ 1.32 Volts albeit i have only completed 4-5 hours on Prime95 so far. I have a sneaking suspicion i could probally drop the voltage also as prior to 4ghz i had booted and ran Prime95 for several hours @3.9ghz @1.2 (Stock?) Volts. I was kind of expecting to do more tweaking with this CPU as the last time i did this was many many years ago on my 2600k which was a battle to get 4.4ghz stable.
That's pretty impressive for that voltage if it proves to be stable.

Sounds like an identical chip to mine, mine needs a smidge less. I think using the corsair cooler and helping keep temps down helps a ton. I'm using the Corsair H50

I might bump it up to 3.8 but the fan can get quite load but wouldn't want to spend £40-50 more for a little extra speed.
 
OK, reset bios (AGAIN), and just did memory XMP... and FINNNNNALLLY back to 3200mhz on the RAM. Will see if I can tinker with the CPU core later. Glad the memory itself is OK. Darn memory training, can't wait for this to be fixed.
 
Memory training on mine seems to be okay with 3200, issue is getting 3200 error free, which seems to be impossible with my 1700 sample with the current X370 Prime BIOS.
 
Finally back up to 3.6Ghz and 3200Mhz RAM and performing the way it should. I am waiting it to fail next boot though lol.

Now I am left in the place that I don't really want to mess with it until 1.0.0.7 AGESA turns up.

EDIT: True to form... went back to not working on next boot up.

4Ghz left power at auto xmp profile 1 stressed over night and runs all my games & bid edit software without a single crash max temp reached 65c
 
I've got mine to 3.825Ghz 1.35v Level 2 LLC using 101.4 bclck and Multi.

RAM at 3244mhz 16-15-15-15.

Moving th Base clock upped my M.2 reads and Cinebench score.
 
Not tinkered with my Ryzen for a long time because it has been rock solid at 3.8Ghz and 3200mhz mem. The BIOS's must have substantially improved, as I just did 3333Mhz at the same memory settings and it works perfectly so far. Wonderful. (Improved Cinebench scores and Battlefield V so far. working great.)

Will try higher later. Prob won't matter that much as still on an anemic graphics card, but I am entertaining myself in prep for ryzen 3xxx. Will be nice to know if I don't need more more expensive memory. (I wish I could have got c14 though instead of c16)
