So interesting news. Second time around I changed the CPU ratio to 25 and Voltage offset to 0.2. The compute stopped posting. I had to reset CMOS to get it back. Its all good now but I'm scared to make changes. What did I do wrong? I was hoping I'd limit the CPU to 2.5 Ghz.

I think I've found the right option under Voltage settings. I have set the Offset mode to [-] (negative) and Offset voltage to 0.1. So far its stable, I'll test it with my TrueNas setup. I don't think I have the Curve Optimizer. I don't see it anywhere...

That does make sense. Alright. I'll set it up and observe for a few weeks before making any changes. Just curious though, does my setup support voltage reduction at all? If so, where are the options? I'd hate to setup everything again if I find out the power consumption is too high and there is...

@Lutfij I can't use Ryzen master because this system will not run Windows. I will look into PBO before messing around with it. @Ralston18 I'm planning to use TrueNas and Jellyfin on it. Your other questions are not clear to me.

Hi there. I hope undervolting questions are permitted in this category, I'm upgrading my computer and want to use my current rig as a home server to run a NAS. The CPU is Ryzen 5 3500X and motherboard is MSI B450M Pro-VDH Max with latest BIOS installed. As a NAS server, the performance...

Thank you sir

Any thoughts on this?

@CountMike you have Ryzen too. Does your graph on MSI afterburner looks similar? More importantly, do you think this is problematic? Should I be doing anything about this?

I've updated bios and chipset drivers. Bios to 1.2.0.6 since ver 7 is currently in beta and I don't want to install that. I still don't have AMD balanced power plan and core clock is still the same. What KananX said, is this correct? I see he's been banned so I'm doubting it.

Changing power plan did not have any effect. What is the difference between core clock and cpu clock? In the screenshot, the core clock is ~600mhz and seems to fluctuate with load. CPU clock is pretty much locked in at 3.6ghz.

Hi. I was looking into some system monitoring tools and installed AMD Ryzen master and MSI afterburner. I like the MSI afterburner and in its graphs I noticed my CPU clock speed is always around 3.6ghz or over. I just want to confirm with you guys whether this is normal or should I be concerned...

I got that PC from my friend but its PSU is shotty. I think its fan is going out, makes horrible noises. Its also 450W but from a cheap chinese brand so I'm not comfortable putting that into my rig. I swapped out its graphics card which is Nvidia GT 710 into mine and my PC works fine with it. I...

Never used multi monitors. Monitor is plugged into GPU. The motherboard can't give any video output because the ryzen has no graphics in it.

Yes PSU is new as well. Its Antec VP450P. I've asked my friend to drop off his spare CPU so I can test out different parts. Will be here tomorrow probably. You think PSU is the problem?

I got myself a new rig but its been giving me issues constantly. Everything ran fine for 3 days and then, the monitor started glitching and then completely stopped giving any output. I sent the graphics card back and got it replaced. Now what happens is that the PC boots into windows and after a...
