[SOLVED] Msi x470 Gaming Plus With Ryzen 2700x is there no chance to hit 4.2ghz ?

[sarohan]

Hello there, I was trying stabilyze my ryzen 2700x to 4.2ghz. But i guess i am doing something wrong or this mobo not compatible OC for ryzen 2700x. I tried undervolt vcore to 1.30-35v. core boost disabled, pbo disabled, i can boot up windows everyting seems normal first but when gaming session with high load around %80-90 usage, system is freezing. Even if i set cpu ratio manually and core boost disabling itself, Temp spikes still occurs more often. When system is freezing, not blue screen it's just freezing i have to do restart manually. I think most users getting into trouble with high voltages and their cpus were probably running on motherboards with cheap, low-phase vrms which would overheat and cause damage to the cpu. I do not want mess things around.

What i have tried so far:
Cpu loadline calibration mode 3 - 4
tried vcore to 1.30-140v. for 4.2ghz
tried with amd ryzen master too and same results.
tried game boost. Causing fan settings to max, ı have to set them manuel again. There is more often temp spikes when gaming session. (it says core boost disabled but i do not have any clue.)
tried Cmos reset.

What should i do exactly ? is that not possible for 4.2ghz for this mobo ? or should i set some value to CPU NB/SOC Voltage and CLDO_VDDP Voltage too ? I read that every silicon lottery is different. Is that mean for also same cpu models ?

You'll probably not like it...try sliding VCore up to a 1.45V limit. I think most people who've gotten that extreme of an all-core OC on Ryzen 2000 have found that high a VCore necessary.

But I also don't think OC'g an X CPU, especially a 2700X, on all-cores is a great strategy unless you really need it for productivity app's, and at those voltages it's definitely not what I'd want for a 24/7 overclock. For gaming Performance Boost Overdrive (PBO) overclocking is best as that can get two cores to boost to 4.3G and stay boosted longer.

All any game needs is one thread at a high performance level...the other threads are usually very lightly loaded and just don't need it.
