@Darkbreeze Amazing I have that many post since 2008 at 31. Looks like 32 will be my max.

@Jason H. I have a different suggestion for you ,which will get you lower temperatures and with higher boost clock for equal /better gaming performance ,than your 4400Mhz all core 1.42v. I made a thread for 3800X and MSI Motherboard,check it out if you want...

NO do not update your BIOS to the latest version because the newest version support Ryzen 3XXX CPU's.(May introduce unforeseen problems) Now you can up date the BIOS to the latest BIOS revision before Ryzrn 3XXX CPU's were supported for best performance and most supported features for your...

Even though you quoted me,the OP would be using a IC Graphite thermal pad for CPU instead of using thermal paste.Of course I would not know the brand he used but make installing CPU easier for people than paste.

If your PPT in BIOS or thermal throttle is set in correct/by mistake,your computer will boot at 546Mhz. I suggest reset your BIOS to optimize defaults and redo your settings or at least check them. If you do not know how to set them to optimize setting it is F6 when in BIOS and save and restart...

Awesome ,good CPU there enjoy

@DarkJedi58 I made a video on 2600X and with your default cooler ,your can try and test this one change in BIOS. AMD RYZEN 5 2600X 6-Core undervolt CPU 1.300 mV best results XFR/Boost 4250 Mhz or you can also do CPU offset volatge as suggested View...

IF you want quiet operation while running your Ryzen CPU ,you will have to adjust the CPU fan settings in BIOS for best Results. I suggest @56°C -30% Fan Speed Silent on desktop idle up to 56°C as workload increases so will fan speed @60°C -45% Fan Speed @65°C -50% Fan Speed @75°C -100% Fan...

@Octopicake -Your system is normal and long post but can be helpful,if interested First off your software is glitching out and is for all Ryzen on that software. Use HWinfo64 for more accurate temperatures and voltage reading as suggested above. Your system is normal for Ryzen but with a...

EDIT Aug 12 2019:Let me start by saying I was wrong and I apologize for any misinformation I supplied due to my ignorance. I was aware of Third-Party Monitoring Tools not being as accurate as Ryzen Master and I just ignored that fact all together. I have started testing with Ryzen Master only...

Well I did a video of my 3600X because i still disagree with article.It is all in the BIOS used to achieve rated boost clocks. Cinebench 20 all cores hit and past Maximum boost written on the box of 4400Mhz Valley Benchmark all cores hit and past Maximum boost written on the box of 4400Mhz...

Well I am not using Ryzen Master at this moment but it is a very nice tool I am able to use it to change CPU voltage and CPU clocks on the fly ,without restart.I can install if you want and give you a screenshot. I will list videos with setting of Ryzen Master /HWinfo64 I uploaded already.Any...

Yes better performance on BIOS AMD ComboPI1.0.0.3 If I disable all PBO settings my Ryzen 3600X only Max boost on all cores to 4400Mhz what is written on the box. You can watch this video if you want.

Sorry not trying to confuse and I think you see where I disagree with article.When I have 2x3600X Yes I have proof of the BIOS being the issue ,because I have different BIOS that run differently where boost is concerned . AMD ComboPI1.0.0.3 in use AMD ComboPI1.0.0.3 AB not in use All...

IS this not from the article Well I think the article is misleading and the real truth is BIOS are not done correctly and that is the real problem. All I can say I have 2 x 3600X and both of them can surpass Max boost written on the box.The video I showed ,is that 3600X is cable of surpassing...
