R5 3600 overclock 99% sure its safe but want to be double sure.

[xPalis]

Hello everyone,
Wanted to ask this in someones elses thread but couldnt find a fitting place...
Anyway running my R5-3600 at 4325Mhz (not the max, good enough for me and CB always scores 1700+ with this) and 1.25V (didnt try to go lower) with LLC6 and PBO set to 115.
Did PRIME95 small fft 128k for 10min and from 80 to 200 for 18 mins (good enough for me...).
Just wanted to know is this safe ? or have i set something wrong ?

CPU at idle:

Prime95 small fft 128K:

you're fine.

i overclock Ryzen CPUs like this:
CB R20 lowest VCore = Set Bios VCore.
P95 lowest VCore (blend.. not hardcore in place small fft) = target vdroop.

You're probably fine. I would avoid running P95 or other burn tests too often though if not at all.
Cinebench R15/20 like workloads are ok.

The proper way to determine “safe” voltages is like @GerKNG says.
And still this is under specific circumstances.

If you want the safest possible voltage you run P95 once with CPU on auto settings and PBO not auto but enabled or manual (like 110-120 for R5 3600) with 128KB FFTs and let it warm up to max temp. The voltage you will see under max temp is the safest possible under that temp and that current(A) only. Higher than that temp or current(A), suggest lower voltage.

You can do the same with CB R20. The voltage under R20 would be higher than P95. If you select R20 voltage as your constant and 24/7 voltage you must never never never ever run a P95 or other stress/burn workload alike.

Simple as that...

Thanks for the answer, i dont really like what PBO defaults to tho... i think CB was running at 1.34 and prime95 at 1.32... also temperatures were at 85. Now i manged to lower the voltage to 1.22 and the temperatures are at 77 max after running prime 95 with small ffts from 80 to 200 for 20 mins.

If your voltage is 1.25v or below you're perfectly fine. Ryzen can have issues long term with going above 1.3v on full loads.

The stock voltages might look scary but that's just how the chip runs. You did good on this overclock.

He probably has a good binned chip. Mine can't run nowhere near that 4.325GHz and 1.25V. Its a bronze rated CPU by CTR (ClockTuner for Ryzen) evaluation.
So, static speed/voltage is no go for me as I loose performance. I left it at auto CPU settings with PBO enabled and cooling it as much as possible within (my) reason to do its thing.

And honestly, stock rocks. The only reason to tweak clocks and voltages is to get it lower than stock.

Its 4.325Ghz at 1.22V now. prime95 vdroops to 1.169V. Tried to go lower to 1.21V but Prime95 128k one thread crashes after 2 mins, that thread starts to run at 50%. Good enough i guess, im done tweaking

In 80~90% of cases yes, that's the deal. But there are some like @xPalis who can make something more out of it with really low voltages.
5000series does not need this as it has the PB-PBO curve optimizer. You can really do almost anything with that (Under/Over Clock).

Vdroops to 1.169V during static voltage of 1.22V?
If yes you're fine.
