Question Overclocking Guide ?

[jalb]

Can someone please direct me to a step-by-step guide for overclocking the
MSI Pro X870E -P WiFi motherboard ? (9800X ed/Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000MT) Thanks.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

the msi pro x870e -p wifi motherboard? (9800x ed/Corsair Vengeance ddr5 6000MT)
Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

To add, you should be good to go by enabling AMD'E.X.P.O in BIOS. If you really do want to eek out more performance out of your platform you can think about undervolting your processor using Ryzen Master's Curve Optimizer.

Overclocking latest Ryzen is not recommended and most of time doesn't produce any practical results, A good cooling and some careful optimizations are much better.
Default TDP is 120W and power requirement up to 140W. Unless sub-zero cooling with LN or dry ice, you would get nowhere. If it's for gaming than you get x3D model and if for work 9900x or 9950x.
To "overclock" RAM use XMP or EXPO mode whatever your RAM supports.

Overclocking a processor is no longer a way to get something for nothing.
Processors are binned and the better chips are used in nigher priced versions.
You are more likely to damage your processor by fiddling with voltages.

Thanks for the welcome. See below the PC I built on 7/18/25.

If you really do want to eek out more performance out of your platform you can think about undervolting your processor using Ryzen Master's Curve Optimizer. I have already enabled both a AMD EXPO but see no difference in performance boost. However it did take the ram from 4200MT to 6000MT. Ryzen Master's Curve Optimizer i have installed but i dont know how to use it so..thats why im here.
