you have an OC cpu with an X , but your mobo is not OC specialized , so that would be potential lost

 

[Supahos]

What in the world are you talking about Jimmy? That CPU and board both allow ocing. You need to do a bit of research.

 

[jimmyEatWord]

but isn't an OC Ryzen board supposed to have an X instead of a B ? i don't think that board is fully OC

 

[Supahos]

Incorrect. And the x in the CPU has nothing to do with the CPU being ocable or not. All ryzen CPUs are, all board other than the a320 can oc.

See table for details on overclocking related to chipset. X350 and B350 can both overclock.

And the "X" on the CPU does not refer to overclock capability
https://www.hardocp.com/article/2017/04/06/overclocking_amd_ryzen_5_1600_1400_cpus

It denotes that the processor has the "Extended Frequency Range (XFR)" feature

Lmao Jimmy posts incorrect info not once but doubles down incorrectly, then votes my post down because he's wrong. Cute.

We must be slaves to the truth regardless of how it reflects on ourselves. Sometimes the truth is hard to see but we still must chase it. And yes, it was a bit of a giggle.

BTW, from the country myself, farmers feed the world.
