It's not a bad thing at all, doing really well I think!!

Have you tested the previous CPU with a few tests to see if there's much of an increase?

i make a quick test yes, it has almost same score as oced 4ghz 2200g, maybe i should push a lit bit, i will testing it again tommorow, probably test in real gaming, got plenty time since tommorow is off day hehe

heres old ryzen 3 within 4ghz and old 8gb 3000mhz ram clock

and heres the new one 2600+16gb all in stock clock

i think theres lot potential yes

oh yes theres bit acident while installing my new cpu, i forgot to plug the cooler pin, and i it keep restarting on window abt ten times until i realize it

, scare the hell out me, i was tho my pc was broken :roll:

last test for tonight, my yakuza 2 got free extra 14fps

I think you might need to do a test that's less GPU restrictive or bound

That's not really going to show off the CPU upgrade.. Something like Firestrike or some of the older 3D Mark tests would be a great show for you.. Then the favourites such as CineBench and the like

Maybe even some games you play on as well

Well I was using an AIO to cool the 2600 so you may need a better cooler. Are you doing that in the BIOS? Or using Ryzen Master?

Try to do a manual OC set the multiplier to 42 or 4200 depending on the BIOS version set the voltage as I stated and see of it will boot. Using auto OC on MBs is not always a good idea.

Yeah It was an awesome find, mate did 3733cl14 on his 10900X + Encore but moved to 8x8 teamgroup 3200cl14 recently to match the build, managed to score that for £239 shipped, he even paid the $37 odd shipping! : P

Awesome Biffzinker, those Noctua wipes are super-convenient, got (3) of them free enclosed with a new tube of the NT-H2 Noctua thermal paste.

Not certain they will pull me away from Bounty kitchen wipes and 99% IPA, but they do work extremely well. After you remove the bulk of the used thermal paste try this: wrap one of the Noctua wipes around your index finger and wipe that area between CPU socket frame and your air cooler mount in a circular motion, you'll be surprised just how much additional thermal goo you will pick up with those wipes.

Cleans the outside of your CPU socket mount and inside of your air cooler mount in one motion and does a good job.

Wooooo!

...that is, if you're using an air cooler.

I doubt. My 2600 won't go even 4.1 with such a low voltage. And 4.2 is nothing but a dream even with higher voltages.

Gonna stay with the clear slightly tinted keyboard roof from years past.

The new smoky black roofs they just launched are nice looking but - one keyboard roof is enough for a single family home.

And I have a custom loop, temps aren't the issue here.

e: And I had a better motherboard before than this cheap TUF crap which I have now. Still no hope for 4.2 all cores.

That is interesting I was using the As Rock X470 Master SLI which may explain I used the same board for a customer build and was also able to get 4.2 using the Cooler Master MA410 cooler
