Well im using the Noctua d15s chromax, I bought it for the ryzen 5000 so hopefully it is good enough

oh yes, that'd smash a 5950x
if you do have heat issues, remember the PBO tweaks with a curve undervolt helps a lot

The situations like the old intel delidding days, where once you reach enough wattage the heat spirals out of control - but putting a limit 5W before that limit (or small changes to your HSF mounting/thermal paste) can give a huge drop in temps, for no performance loss

already bidding on manufactures to make a prototype but here is what my new hybrid cooling system is going to kind of look like.

Try setting BLCK to between 100.01 or 100.1 it actually can help with boost

Thanks for your advice but I don't quite fully understand. What you mean is that I should leave the PBO auto, and add some undervolt and that's all ?? Normally what i do is lock my CPU to a certain point, for example with this 3600x I'm using it with a 4.3ghz at 1.2375v and I'm quite happy. Which way is better in your opinion ?? Furthermore, I don't have any experience to tune more with the ryzen master, I mean like with the RAM or curve

PBO on custom, set them 10-20% higher than the stock values

then use the curve undervolt, so you get more boost within that limit

dont use ryzen master, BIOS.
