Question How reliably does the 3700x hit 1900mhz on the FCLK?

[MCS_870]

Hey guys just wanted to know how reliably does the 3700x hit 1900mhz on the FCLK? and if it doesn't, does the 3900x hit 1900mhz more reliably?
thanks.

They all use same Infinity fabric chip so same applies to all. Only time you need 1900FCLK is if you use 3800MHz RAM and works just fine.

I have to think this goes strictly with silicon quality (therefore is silicon lottery) so I'd imagine a 3800X would have best odds of achieving that since they have the best-binned silicon of currently available desktop SKU's.

But then again, the silicon in question isn't the CCD but the 14nm I/O die so it could be equally possible on any Ry3K. But unless you're really interested in this just to achieve high overclocked levels without regard to actual performance imrovement you should probably go watch some of Buildzoid's meandering videos as he's worked at OC of memory and IF on Ry3K.

Here's one:
