Question Ryzen 5600x overclock voltage

[Jackshutty]

I recently upgraded to Ryzen 5600x and so I have overclocked it to 4.63 so far on 1.325v I have ran cinebench like 14 times and played bf2042 ford 4 hours last night and 2 today max temp at 100% load is 82.9c and all the other temps are in safe range and gaming temps are about 70c for cpu. But is it normal to have the voltage on these so low? my 3600x ran 4.4 @1.350 but got to hot at any higher,
My system is
5600x with arctic freezer 2 420 aio
Asus fuf gaming x570 WiFi plus
32gb Corsair ram
750wat Corsair platinum psu

Each Generation of CPUs will have its own range of operating Voltages. As the technology (measured in nanometres) gets smaller with newer generations, so do the operating voltages. Don't try to equate optimum Voltage and power settings with older devices such as the 3600X with newer CPUs like the 5600X. They're not the same.

There's also the Silicon Lottery to consider when manually overclocking a chip. Some are better than others, require fewer Volts and go faster too.

Do you have a permanent 1.325V Voltage on your 5600X? It probably won't suffer in the short term, but after 3 or 4 years, you may electromigration has been accelerated faster than if you'd left Vcore under motherboard control. I had to disable the overvoltage an old AMD CPU after 4 years, because it no longer worked with a 25% overclock.

If you need PBO enabled for faster frame rates whilst gaming that's fine, but you might consider creating several different speed profiles in the BIOS, to give the CPU an easier time when you're not performing any instensive tasks.

Thank you for your reply I did do some research on the voltage for the 5600x I thought it was safe to be under 1.4v, i tried stock pbo but the voltage got close to 1.4v and only boosted to 4.2. I have a new motherboard as well it's asus I found it easier to use game boost on my msi motherboard. I'm in my 5th day of testing I got 1 game crash playing bf2042, but ran smooth on defiance, fm23 and last night I ran total war attila in benchmark mode multiple times and it was ok. I'm going to dial it down for now and spend some time getting pbo perfected.
