overclocking

I am upgrading my pc in the short future, and this being my first fully custom build I wanted to overclock my CPU, RAM and possibly GPU unless it is not recommended for somewhat beginners. This will be my build: CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800x GPU: RTX 3080/3080ti ( not entirely sure which to get yet )...

hi, not so long ago i changed my psu to an Evga 600W 80 plus bronze from a crorsair cx600W because my old one was broken. and when I wanted to start the computer, I had to reset my bios, but my cpu changed to 2.89 ghz and before it was set to 3.99 and I don't dare to overclock myself, my friend...

I recently built a new system running an i5 12600k and 32gb Corsair Vengeance 5600 C36 ddr5. My motherboard says it's rated for mem speeds up to 6200, would it be possible to push my stick to levels anywhere near that number?

So I had Two Gskill Ripjaws CL 19-19-19 46 1.2v DDR4 2666 MHz 8GX1 DIMM, (16 GB) With my MSI H310 M M2 Pro Motherboard running at 2666 MHz. However, I had upgraded to a Gskill Ripjaws CL 16-18-18-38 1.35v DDR4 3200 MHz 16GX1 & a Corsair Vengeance CL 16-18-18-38 1.35v DDR4 3200 MHz 16GX1, (32 GB)...

Hi all. I thought I did enough research before buying my RAM, but now that I’ve got it installed, I’m very confused. I have an MSI B450-A PRO MAX motherboard and a Ryzen 5 3600XT CPU. When buying new RAM, I found that I could get 3600 MHz sticks for the same price as 3200 MHz sticks. I wasn’t...

Hi, as the title suggests, my frames the last 2 days have been around 50 but wavering between 40-90 ish It's weird because I usually run at 120 which is my monitor's refresh rate with the games and settings I play. Here are my specs: CPU: Ryzen 7 5800x Motherboard: Gigabyte X570S Aorus Master...

Hello there! I have overclocked my CPU a while ago. And I only managed to get my i7-7700k from 4.2ghz to 4.4ghz. The temps where fine as well as the voltage. But I couldn't get it stable past that point, my screen froze while stress testing. I wanted to tryout some VENGEANCE LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB)...

Hello, I'm not completely new to overclocking, but not a pro. My setup is a Ryzen 5 2600 (3.4 GHz is normal clock), GTX 1660, and a Gigabyte AB350M-DS3H V2-CF motherboard. I've been overclocking my CPU quite a bit, or trying, at least, because there are always 2 problems which seem to be...

Overclocking anything causes system instability, I know that but, does too much overclocking causes sudden shutdowns even in bios? Just right now, I set my radeon r7 240's maximum gpu core clock to 780mhz and memory to 800mhz which is the rated speeds. I set the memory 900mhz, while gaming...

Hi there, I have just bought some new RAM for my PC and want to overclock them so I can run my music production program with less cpu problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here are my specs: Motherboard - ASUS M5A78L-M-USB 3. RAM - Corsair vengeance pro series 1600MHz 8GB (x2)...

Hi everyone, I recently upgraded my CPU and GPU, and I have been doing some testing on performance & temps. Based on comparisons, it seems like my Cinebench scores with the R9 5900x are pretty low (more details below). I've also noticed that my temperatures seem quite high, even on idle. I know...

[I'm new to this forum, and PC hardware, misunderstanding might happen] Hello, I'm thinking of overclocking my GPU, which is the Radeon HD 6450, but the cooling fan is a bit small, honestly. Will it keep the chip cool enough with a higher clock speed? There seem to be different models too, I...

I have a 8+8gb ram kit which is advertised to be 3200mhz, but its currently running at 2667 mhz. I watched plenty of tutorials online they all said to enable xmp under the AI tweaker option but i cant find that either. Any help would be greatly appreciated because i want my amd cpu to use the...

Hello, i just got a i5 6600k instead of a i5 6400 and i wanted to overclock it, altho it seems like it crashes randomly when playing games but when stresstesting it its stable. Im still using the psu from the prebuilt pc which is some kind of lenovo 450W 80+ bronze. Specs: Gigabyte z170...

I tried overclocking my new RX 6600 following the simplest of OC guides (increment clock by small amounts in MSI Afterburner, stress test after every increment). I was doing this for all of today, and got from 2684mhz to 2810mhz (24mhz increments) with zero problems both in MSI Kombustor's and...

I know to raise things like my core and cache ratio but other than that I don't know what I'm doing and I want to get the most out of my CPU. Someone that I know recently got a pc with lower specs in every way and gets higher fps than me with my 2080 super & i7-9700k at 4.8Ghz. I'm not sure if...

Hello, i was just wondering how high you really can push the vcore when overclokcing, The chip max is 1,52 according to intell and i wondered if 1,45v is too high for 4,8Ghz on 4 cores? When it gets a bluescreen, is that from overvoltage or undervoltage? And when it freezes is that because the...

Hey guys, so basically I built my PC two days ago and since then I'm trying to fix my XMP but nothing is working. I have Ryzen 5 5600x on b550 aorus pro ac board, with 2x8gb 3200MHz c16 ripjaws v kit ram. RAM in on QVL list for the motherboard. When I turn on XMP pc restarts, then automatic...

Hello everyone. I have an older PC that still runs very well. I won't be changing my 6700k yet so i wanted to overclock it which is a reason why i bought this CPU back then. PSU, case fans and case are not quite good and i'll be changing them soon. This is long and i'm not an expert so please...

I just bought a GTX 1050 ti, as you know most models of that card don’t require a power connector. I was just wondering if it would be safe to overclock it, as I plan on doing that. I’ve heard that it might not be safe, since if you exceed the amount of power that the PCIe x16 slot can deliver...

Greetings and happy new year to all 🥳🎄 ! This is a theoretical question, please consider I'm not building a new rig and don't need any advices like "there won't be performance benefit" or "best available options right now to go with". Now I really hope someone will answer this question, at...

I have a Sapphire R7 360 and I’m trying to squeeze every last bit of performance out of it since GPUs are unreasonably priced.
