I just managed to overclock my ryzen 5 3600 to 4.40 GHz on all cores with a peak voltage of 1.25v from 1.18V. should I try to go further or this is good enough. Btw my CPU is around 60 degree celsius with my current cooler at Max load. Thanks

My specs
Ryzen 5 3600
Gigabyte aX370 gaming k7
Gigabyte rtx 2060Super
Cooler is Deepcool gammax gte
Ssd Gigabyte

That's way above average OC.

Actually at 1.25V it blue screened. However at 1.3V its now completely stable....

How are you testing for stability? Even at 1.3V that's very good results.

...Btw whats the best overclocking result with a ryzen 5 3600?

Depends entirely on method and how they tested for stability. There been quite a few getting over 5 Ghz on LN2, but that's hardly anything close to practical and useable. Otherwise, a few people have gotten 4.4G but it wouldn't hold in a prime95 stability test (not even talking small FFT with AVX2 extensions either) unless VCore is well above 1.4V and under a good liquid cooler.

Final testing is 4.3ghz at all cores with voltage at 1.25V as 4.4Ghz at 3.25V is blue screening while doing cinnebench test. As my ryzen is for personal uses, I would only go for overclocks that are safe for my cpu

How are you running the Cinebench test? with CB20 you can set it up to run repeatedly for a defined time period. Since CB20 is a 'real-world' type of test I'd want it to be stable for at least 2 hours even if just using it for gaming and overnight (8 hours) to let everything thermally saturate under load if you do heavy processing, e.g., rendering, that can take a long time.

Prime95 can crash a borderline overclock sooner, and pretty quickly if using small FFT's w/AVX. But that's not also testing your cooling to make sure it's up to long periods of use.

I will do it for 4 hrs for thermals then as I am sure anyways that my system is stable for daily use at 4.3ghz
