The Ryzen 5 3600 Discussion Thread

44 CPU temp under load? Are you sure?

Gaming load, not a torture test or anything, it has since capped at 50C playing Anthem.

Gets way hotter during Prime95 had it running just now got as high as 82C, I thought it would be cooler tbh.

nice temps.

Those volts look about right for it not being under high stress, once you have all threads running at 100% you should not be seeing more than around 1.35v.

Out of interest what sort of temps do you get running Prime95 for a while?
 
No idea, nor do i care, its an unrealistic power pug load.

Yeah I mean I feel the same way I don't like it much no game will ever do that to my CPU. Was just curious as far as cooler performance more than anything.

The highest I've got in a game is around 50c and that was anthem earlier seems to be the most intense CPU game I have atm.

I was going to say! Still sounds very decent though.

My setup now is:

  • Ryzen 3600 Manual OC @ 4.2Ghz, 1.325V
  • Deepcool Captain 240Ex
  • 32Gb (4x8)Corsair Vengeance 3200Mhz 16C
  • MSI Radeon RX 580 Armor OC
  • NZXT H500
My idle temps are around 35C (which considering my room is pretty warm I'm happy with) and 70 under heavy load (cinebench)

No idea, nor do i care, its an unrealistic power pug load.

Agreed. I gave up with Prime 95 and instead chose to stress my system for stability in perceivable real world scenarios.
 
Setting Ryzen Master to an all core 4.4 stock speed OC my 3600x hits 72c under all core load when stress testing in RM It's also stable in games. Although cinebench crashes it straight away.
 
Just got my 3600 and my MSI X570 motherboard.

The problem I am having is that it's running at 4100Mhz all the time. CPU use keeps spiking between 20% and 90%.

Have changed to the Ryzen Balanced power plan but that hasn't changed anything, also running the latest BIOS and Latest Chipset driver.

What process is causing the CPU usage to spike to 90%?
 
Whatever you use your PC for is all that matters really, RE: temps.

spoken like someone who has crap cooling and is afraid the cpu will meltdown.
any system i build is tested to 72hours or more of linpak. cpu temps regularly go over 80c on stock cooling with mild oc.

too many clown on here have overlocked systems that fail when even some heavy lifting is presented to them. prime95 is not a good torture test for a cpu. it doesnt load it up enough.

If you want to shower your PC with overkill cooling and motherboards with overkill VRMs just so you can say.

You go right ahead. But don't lecture people their plebeian cooled systems are inadequate because they don't measure up to your ridiculously over engineered standards, i see this level of snobbery a lot and its just crazy immature ********!

4.5 Year old Kraken X31.

43c during gaming, 46 to 48c stress testing, 60% fan curve.

its not snobbery or over engineering. its clueless people like you that have to leave their computers turned off on the hottest day of the year simply because you have tested your system/overclocks for stability by loading up the ocuk website.
carry on with your stupidity by all means. but dont assume everyone is as incompetent as you.

The hottest my system has got, on a hot day, you may have noticed it is hot these days... is 53c peak during a 3 hours Unreal Engine lighting bake, the most stressful thing i do with my computer, and a very stressful load by any real standard.

You and many like you telling people their system is not adequately cooled unless it can handle

72hours or more of linpak

Is irresponsible at best, you're telling people to build, at unnecessary expense, for a stress load no where near what their PC will ever need.
 
a system with stock cooling and cpu running at stock speeds will handle linpak all day long. nothing special needed cooling wise to accomplish that. its those people who overclock and then run some lame test like Unreal Engine lighting and assume thats their peak load and temps and are done with it who are clueless at what they are are doing. seen it happen too many times, people use lame stress tests then one day decide to compress down a video clip to a different format are are met with a blue screen.
you do what you find is best for you but also keep it to yourself since you make yourself look clueless spouting nonsense using something like Unreal Engine lighting as a stress tester. man up and get linpak on there and you will soon realize the limitations of your setup.

You're using exaggeration to double down.

I've been building and overclocking computers for 20 years, have not used power bug stress testing for 15 and have never encountered instability or overheating once settled on my custom hardware settings.
