Safe voltage for ryzen 5 2600

[perdikos.jimmy]

Does anyone know what voltage would be too much? I heard 1.35v but that seems low compared to what I seen others use. Is 1.39 too much?

Around 1.45V for AMD Ryzen.

1.45v is only recommended for benchmarking and non 24/7 overclocks.

A max of 1.4v is good for 24/7 overclocking.

Any idea why my 2700X has such high voltage at stock?

That is AMD's XFR 2.0 doing it's thing. 1.45v is perfectly normal for Ryzen at stock loads, it only boosts to 1.45v under light loads, once you get under heavy loads, it'll drop the voltage to the 1.3xx mark.

If you want more info, please make your own thread. I'll allow this derailment for now.

hello, my 2600 (non-X) voltage is set to auto, and can be as low as 0,8v depends on the workload. I've heard that high voltage can do damage to processor, does low voltage also do damage to processor? I'm really worried, cuz i can't buy any processor for almost 10 years ahead

It's better to start your own thread than post in a thread that's half a year old.

Low voltage will not damage the CPU, you have nothing to worry about.
