SOME RYZEN 7 1700 OVERCLOCKING!

Handbrake completely saturates all threads for sure. It's my go to CPU stress test. It's probably not the best, but I do it often, and other than general web browsing and light gaming, is all I usually do with my PC.

ok thats good to hear, id like to see an aida 64 test with it properly burned in with the AIO cooler at its equilibrium.
 
I will do this test when I get back and get my h115i bracket through. Could possibly do it with my h60 v2 earlier mind you. But I suspect most people would be more interested in the 240+ results rather than 120.
 
thats good to hear for air cooling, the reson im so fixated on 240 AIO results is that is what i intend to do. (also being a high end CPU it makes sence to me to be under an AIO)
High end air coolers and 240mm AIOs will produce largely the same temperatures, maybe a 1 or 2c difference. Only reason to go for an AIO is space really
 
I get really good temps with my H60 on my 4770k. If I leave the PC to idle with HWMonitor on, I have seen one of the cores drop to single figures. Usually idles around high teens / low twenties. But while encoding at full tilt, it maxes around 50 on the package. I put an "auto" 4.0 GHz clock on it with my z97 board (not a bios thing, but a software OC, so unsure of the voltage used), and it idled in the low thirties, and peaked at around 65. So still plenty too to go. So the 120mm was working well. But I do run 2 SF120 quiet edition fans in a push pull configuration on the radiator, and gelid extreme thermal paste.

Not hugely relevant to Ryzen temps I know. But I was very happy with that result, and that cooler does fit AM4 out the box.

thats semi reasuring, speeking of thermol past can you recomend a good one(s)?
 
I did a lot of research before I bought the gelid extreme, and it seemed to test just below the liquid metal stuff I also bought, but haven't yet tried due to the thread on it a few threads down. But then there is the stuff 8 pack does with his pre-binned, de-lidded 7700k's. Thermal Grizzly or something. Whatever one though, it'll be less than a tenner most likely.

I did initially use the standard paste with the h60. Temps were horrible though. It didn't get good enough coverage. So the core temps were all over the place. There was a good 40 degrees difference under load when I reapplied with the gelid.
 
were you able to get to 3.9Gz?

if so:
#1. what temps?
#2. what cooler?
#3. what volts?
#4. what ram?

1700 - 3.9Ghz - Peaked 1.320 volts - 10 Runs Realbench - Load temps Realbench in the 60s and when gaming a much much lower, 40ish degrees.

#1. what temps? Below
#2. what cooler? Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4
#3. what volts? peaked 1.320v
#4. what ram? 16gb 2400Mhz (In sig)[/QUOTE]

this is good to see, 2 test so far at resoable temps.

are you able to get your ram to 3000Mz, because the link below would surgest the ram speed/latency matters

Christ what temps are you getting at that oc? I'm at 3.5 using an artic cooler and hitting 70c under full load

It hits between 70-75C eventually now I have my Noctua NH-U12P installed but again, my case is 90% acoustic foam with low noise fans.

I switched this off before it capped out, but should give you an idea…
