I was watching some videos and saw it was possible to OC my Ryzen 5 1600 with it's stock cooler from stock 3.2Ghz to 3.8Ghz. I'll post you the problems I had and ecountered throughout in an 'attempt format'.
Attempt 1- computer wouldn't boot so I had to remove my motherboards CMOS for 10 minutes then reboot so I could finally enter bios.
Attempt 2- Lower clock to 3.7Ghz and computer wont start without blue screening - Fixed by turning power off of auto
Attempt 3- Run 3.7 Ghz again but crashed while playing games like Rust but for strange reasons. One was a generic blue screen but the other 2 were caused by 'FaceIt' which if you don't know what that is it is a CS:GO 3rd party competative program that I haven't used in about a year.
Attempt 4- Lower my clock to 3.6Ghz thinking it must work now as everyone else can do it higher with the same CPU and stock cooler. All is working fine till I try to render something in Vegas and my computer just completely turns off mid-way through rendering it (No blue screen, it just powers off). This problem didn't occur before the OC but I want that extra power I know I can get from my CPU but it doesn't seem to be working.
Any suggestions? I am currently back on the base clock of 3.2Ghz again.
