ok so I upgraded to ryzen 5 3600 a couple weeks back and its been working good but since a couple weeks ryzen master has been setting the mode into "manual" instead of the "default" like I had it. and in manual its at 3600mhz, so basically locked at the base speed. So whenever gaming or testing I would switch it to default so it can boost to 4200mhz. In the default setting my core voltages would go up to 1.42-1.44 which is supposed to be "normal" for the 3000 series AMD. Now in default while gaming my temps would be around 55-59 and idle would jump from 35-41. So now in manual mode I have set the speed to 4200mhz and lowered the voltages to 1.325v which is what I've seen some people do and runs fine. With this my temps are around 36-38 as I'm writing this and ryzen master and msi afterburner are open. I've played a game with these settings and seemed to run fine temps at around 55-56 but speed was closer to the target speed it was about 4150mhz. In the default setting I think I got to about 4050 and would maybe only peak at like 4200. I didn't change any other settings other than speed and voltages. And I only did it in ryzen master didn't change anything in bios. I have my windows power plan set to Ryzen Balanced. I an using a Corsair h150i for the cooling. Let me know if those settings are anything good and how I should properly set it up. Also, I ran cinebench 20 the other day and my multi core score was lower than what I saw others get. Other got
3500-ish I only go to 3232. But single core was 461 which is supposedly almost matching a i7-7700. Pretty sure it was in the default setting while running the test.
Edit: Since changing the setting and trying to run cinebench either 15 or 20 I got BSOD. One for "Memory management" which I didn't touch memory setting. and the second was for apc index mismatch. None of which I've gotten before. After this happened I changed it back to default setting and it ran cinebench 15 fine with a score around 1400. I also just ran a stress test for about 5-6 minutes and temps stayed at around 73 with speed being 3949mhz and 1.36v
