I've heard that overclocking the 5600x "sucks" compared to under volting so what I've done is I undervolted it in my motherboard for a -20 PBO curve on all cores.
So far it seems stable but I'd still get all the same performance as my max core clock is still the same. I primarily would like to game so just under volting isnt it.
Some people told me that its best to under volt it then apply some other stuff however I haven't been able to find any guides that go about this in depth other than one where someone just listed what values they use.
Basically I'm wondering what the best way to squeeze gaming performance out of my 5600x is. I've got a beefy cooler (Arctic 2 360) and a good motherboard (MSI Mag B550, Latest bios) so i'd like to squeeze as much performance out as possible without running into stability issues/greatly reducing the lifespan.
