Well considering its an Athlon and all it is good for is a coasted for a really small cup or to trow at someone who pissed you off, no. We are not going to mention it. Also the chance to damage the CPU by tossing it from 20cm top side down like that is 0%.
Just ordered my 4th 1600AF a few minutes ago. Out of my 7 total PC's in the house, my old Intel hardware is dropping fast. Will only have a G4560 and i3 4330 left for my garage and bedroom media PC. 2 other Media PC's will now have 1600AF and my kids two PC's will now have 1600AF. All on Tomahawk non max boards I got around $73-79 on Amazon. $60-65 16gb RAM 3200mhz kits. Great value upgrades. My PC's think they are on the Oprah show, you get a 1600, and you get a 1600....
With all those PCs and replacements... What do you do with old parts? I'm working on my first one and I definitely wouldn't mind some cheap parts... I'm a 500$.
I have 1700X 3.8 GHz stable at 1.22V, running cool and silent. And Sapphire RX 580 Nitro+ SE stable at 1350 MHz with 1.0V and memory at 2250 MHz. Could run it's core bit faster, but I see no reason to gain a few extra FPS.
@@HoosierHardware Yeah it is still very capable, and was probably one of the best bang for your buck cpu's ever made. I was able to play Red Dead 2 with high and some Ultra settings averaging close to 60fps with a 1660 ti. I guess that's why I've been hanging on to it for so long.
Just made that leap, a few days ago. Sold my old, trusty FX, and got an AF. Fx handled all single player games like a champ, but was testing my patience with an mmo titles...I was pairing it with an gtx 1080, and like I said, most of the times worked like a charm @1080p 60hz. Having said that, you will not believe how much of a difference 1600af makes. So just go for it, and have fun. ^^
@@OzanSoylu The best vrm's on a b450 chipsets comes with msi motherboards, so I ended up getting the msi b450 tomahawk max as the best one of the bunch. Fully supported ryzen 2nd gen (even ryzen 9 3900x, vrms can handle 150A) so future upgrades will not be an issue. I highly recommend this board. Vrm's are cool under load, and overclocking section is nice and easy. Might be a bit pricier then the competition, but well worth it.
i also have this cpu and my results are the following: with stock cooler 4.0ghz 1.308v good and stable for day to day usage but stressing it leads to overheating and shutting down So i bought a aftermarket cooler and went for 4150mhz with 1.341v and my temps even for 60min prime95 dont go above 69 70degrees. Cinebench: 3200
1.3V for 4GHz seams too high to me. You should be able to hit 4.1 at least with that voltage. You got a bad OC chip mate. But hey still better than anything else at that price point. :D
Solid video dude. I've been having a tough time getting the 1600 AF stable when I overclock it. I'm going to test your numbers tonight and hopefully it will be stable for me as well.

@@batuone09 prime 95, 20 mins This was with the fans at the motherboard's stock fan curves, didn't play with them at all. So I'm not sure if the fan was even running at a 100% or not I would think it was up there though. This wasn't like any crazy thorough test we just picked A frequency that I knew was obtainable and tweak the voltage till I got it stable. This was 3 months ago I'm sure if somebody spent more time they could probly get better results.
Here, I had stabilized at 3.75mhz with stock voltages, and up to 3.85mhz at +0.102 voltage and maintain about 75/80°, but I prefer 3.75 without change voltages
Don't forget this is stress test temps. Real world scenario will be 10-15c lower unless you are doing something like video encoding 24/7. This chip can handle 90c no problem its the MoBO VRM staying under 115c that you have to worry about but if you are not running the crappiest of boards you can comfortably go to 1.3V and run 4.1GHz+ OC, get an aggressive fan curve and never see more than 80c during standard operation. People always underestimate the inability of games and day-to-day tasks to get more than 3-6 threads loaded at once. Especially seeing those overblown stress test temps.
Bought a 240mm AIO with my 1600 AF planning on overclocking it to 4.1GHz. A few days of trial and error and cannot get above 3.95 stable without dumping the voltage in the high 1.4s range. Fcking lottery :(
I got a 1600af to upgrade a secondary gaming pc. I have to say im super impressed. 4.1ghz all core with 1.25vcore. As far as im concerned if your in the market for a 6core cpu, the 1600 af makes everything else look like a bad buy.
Djare for a while it was under a wrath prism. But it was loud under load so right now its under my old h110i, since its the only other cooler i had that was am4 compatible. The mobo was a gigabyte b450 aorus m.
@@kapler8550 ryzen seems like a terrible deal compared to LGA 2011 and cheap xeons for the socket from aliexpress, plus cheap server ram vs expensive, fast ddr4
Dimitri Jachvadze on the surface, yes x99 looks better. But x99 is a dead platform. And it isnt cheap enough in comparison to am4 to me to be viable for new builders. And experienced builders probably already have something that is equivalent or better, in which case neither the 1600af or cheap xeon is viable.
3.85? why? 3.9-4 gig easily achieveable with 1.375 v which is well within tolerance. Most of the Ryzens run at 1.4v if you don't change the voltage. Don't be afraid of pushng a little juice through the temps are fine with the stock cooler. Mine went to 41.5 I settled at 4 gig with 1.375v, parts don't get used for years anymore and I bet over engineered and will still work fine overvolted in 5-10 years time. It's not really overclocking anymore perfectly safe you should try moving jumpers on a 486 board where you could honestly burn down your house to get a few more frames out of Doom.

Try 4Ghz at 1.3v. Keep in mind you will never stress teh CPU anywhere near what a stress test does so your temps will be far lower than what you see during stress testing.
I have a quick question: I modified the multiplier to x39 but I didn't do any voltage change. I got 14.2k PassMark score, which is very close to 8700k. My question is: Did I do a proper overclock? I got max 82 Celcius during the PassMark test but it is my first overclock attempt, so I just wonder is there anything else I should do. I'm using the stock cooler.

Does overclocking RAM and CPU impact PC performance in a negative way? Should you just overclock your CPU or is it better to overclock both components for maximum performance?
if your cooling setup is not enough cpu will throttle so with overclocking you may not gain performance boost as for the ram if timings are loose after increasing ram speed you dont get performance boost either so you gotta find the sweet spot for yourself or you can find overclock tests on internet and try the same.
Nice video to show how easy overclock is! Would be interesting to see what a cheap 20 dollar gammaxx or snowman cooler could do! I gave gammaxx 400 on ny i7 3820
Hey I just built my pc, my pc doesn’t go straight to my window sign in screen, it takes me to the bios screen then I have to press F8 and all that good stuff, I tried saving the hard drive where I have windows installed as the main driver but it didn’t work
I have an msi mobo and at 1.4V, I can’t even go 3.9GHz stable. But in that stress test, the cpu power consumption doesn’t go over 67W. What is going on in my setup?
First how did you measure CPU power consumption? Only way to know for sure how much power is drained is physically from the wall for the whole system. I would not trust software reading for power measurement. Your chip sounds like it is behaving like old 1600AE and not the new 1600AF. Are you sure someone did not sell you first gen chip for second gen? It could be memory issue (90% of issues are memory ;) ) Even if all you did was enabling the profile sometimes RAM just craps up when you OC the CPU. Try setting the ram to 2133 and try again. Rizen has another voltage (depending on mother board the setting is called differently) that should be withing certain range from CPU voltage. If you pushed CPU voltage too far but left that at stock the MoBo might be failing to deliver the necessary power and cause the PC to fail once you push the CPU.
Alexander Radev Yes, power measures were from onboard readings and I was dumb, it was during the aida64 stress test but when I ran a heavier program, it got to much more than that (90W I think?) I was just confused because I saw other reviews while testing on aida and their consumption appeared higher. I did try to disable XMP but I couldn’t manage it to work... On cpu Z it shows up as a 12nm cpu, is that accurate? Edit: the reviews I saw was actually this test haha And I’m not running any overclock at all, figured out that I couldn’t even reach 3.7ghz stable at voltages up to 1.375v (can’t remember correctly). Some people then started saying it could be my psu, I have no idea...
And there will be no issue in real world application ever. He could have went with 1.25-1.3V and went past 4GHz and still have no issue on this cooler in day-to-day operation.
I bought a 1600 af for my build and it came with a wraith stealth cooler from amazon and my friend just one from Newegg and his came with a wraith spire. But it was still the af variant so that would explain why it costs more.
I really wanted to upgrade to a 1600af this year from a 2500k, but unfortanely even with an a320 motherboard it just wouldnt fit into my budget, so i bought a chinese x79 motherboard, an i7-3930k and 16GB of ddr3 ecc ram, all for the price of 16gb of ddr4, it is a bit slower than a 1600af but still scores 1020 points in R15
I cant hit even 3.7 Ghz at 1.2 V stable. At all Stock Settings my Cpu clocks at 3.45 Ghz. And its often at 70 degrees while Gaming. Any Help? ( sry for my language)
I hope you understand this. CPUs are luck based. Sometimes you order the best CPU that can overclock better than any other CPU, sometimes you get a bad one that can't Overclock at all...
Emilio, you can use ryzen master to check the cpu voltages at the coresponding frequencies, ranging from 3.2 to 3.7ghz. In my case, 1600af stays at 1.2v only at 3.2ghz (1.19v actually). 3.7 ghz pulls about 1.265v. But, 4.0ghz is rock stable under stress load with only 1.29v. It is all "luck of a draw", but getting a decent motherboard and wellknown psu brand will help with oc stability. That's more important then running your cpu with 1.2v or 1.3v.
Silly question. Are you sure you have the new 1600 AF chip? And not the old 1600 AE? This behavior sounds like 1600 AE chip to me which is the first generation Rizen, while the 1600 AF is second generation Rizen+ (essentially Rizen 2600 with lower price).
@@mattsmechanicalssi5833 I love it. It's impossible for me to compare to other test benches since it's the only one I've ever owned. My only complaint is that I don't love the way radiators mount to it, so if you're looking at water cooling, maybe look at what else is on the market. The upside is that it's super small compared to most test platforms and makes swapping parts out crazy simple.
I wanted to see how far my 1600AF could be pushed and got it to boot at 1.4V/4.4GHz on a Gammaxx 400 CPU Cooler. CPU-Z Benchmarks: Single Thread Score: 502, and Multithread Score: 4055.3 I think there was even thermal headroom to push it a little further, because the CPU diode temperature at 4.4GHz was only 78°C however my motherboard doesn't allow voltages above 1.4V which it needed to run the clock any faster.
Few options. Option 1 - your bios by default pushes too much voltage through the chip. Some boards do it on all chips others might do it because they treat the 1600AF as the original 1600 which needed far more voltage to get to higher speeds. Solution is to go to bios and see what voltage is set. If it is too high set it at 1.2-1.25 and you should be able to run at 3.8-3.9Ghz easy. Option 2 - lack of airflow in the case. Many cases, especially cheaper ones have terrible airflow. Doe your case have good air vents for fresh air. Do you have at least 1 fan in the front and 1 fan at the rear moving air? Is your fan speed sufficient to move enough air? dust filters, front panels especially temper glass can choke the PC. Try removing your side panel and see if your temps improve. Fix airflow if necessary. You can try removing teh front panel and/or dust filters to see if that is the problem. Option 3 - low fan speed. There is a possibility that your CPU fan is not properly increasing speed with temperature. Make sure you plugged it in the right fan header. Fan curve and speed is controlled through bios. Check to see and increase fan speed if necessary. Option 4 - bad thermal paste application or cooler is not making good contact. Solution - remove cooler. See how the paste look. If it does not cover the whole CPU you put too little paste. If there are areas on the chip where the paste is too thick or looks different than the rest probably the cooler did not make good contact or was not tightened properly. Reapply paste and reinstall cooler. Remember more paste than necessary is fine. Less than necessary is a problem. In very rare cases your chip and cooler have too big and matching convex on them so they can't make proper contact and need lapping. No cooler or CPU is perfectly even. I would not worry about this though just reapply paste before deciding to sand off the cooler. And do not lap the CPU itself if you have no idea how to do it safely. Option 5 - you can always have an issue with bad temperature reading. What program are you using to read temperature? Try another one. Software reading is never 100% accurate. For example z77 Asrock boards had an issue with reading temps years ago. What is your board? Some low end boards with bad VRM might develop have an issue and pump more power through the chip to compensate for the shitty VRM and lack of VRM cooling. But if that is the case I'd worry more about your VRM temps if they go past 105c Up to 110c is acceptable for most VRMs.
Alexander Radev Hi Thanks For Helping, i Re-installed The Cooler About only 5c Lower And Lower Voltage As Much As i Can And i Got 80c While Gaming , Vrm on My board is The Worst So i Returned it And Bought Steel Legend , My Case is Cheap but 4 Fans Are installed 3 Front And 1 Rear But Thanks For Help Will buy An Aio Soon After Couple of Months

Hey I almost have the same set up but I think your mobo is newer than mine (b450m pro4) I am trying to overclock, it's my first time but hopefully I figure it out
No. The upper limit is 3.85 on that specific CPU with 1.2v. He chickened out at the start of the race. You can comfortably put more voltage through that chip and get past 4GHz. 1.25-1.275v at 4GHz should be reasonable. Keep in mind every CPU is different. You will have higher temps but that is stress test temperatures he is showing. In actual day-to-day use you will never stress the CPU that much unless you are doing video encoding or something like that. Hell not even then. so you will be 10-15c cooler than stress test temps at worse, unless your case has no airflow. And this CPU can handle 85c for long time in case you somehow manage to find the one game in the world that can push all 12 threads to the max. Many people in the comments of this very video report hitting 4GHZ at 1.3V (sloppy fast OC with no fine tuning but it works ;D) and still get 80c stress test and 50-60c during gaming.
Pointless. Spend very few dollars and get an aftermarket cooler. Gammax 400 goes on sale for as little as $16 but an ID Cooling 224xt at $26 would be better.
So if I want to oc to 3.8 hz how much voltage do I need with stock cooler? Sorry I'm new to pc building just ordered my new pc! Anybody know a video I can see on how to oc it?
You don't need to touch voltage it should be fine at auto for 3.8GHz. Unless you have the one motherboard that does not push 1.2V stock. As for a video try this: ruclips.net/video/RZRjoeyz4Z0/видео.html For overclocking always go with Jay. ;)
I'm sitting at 4.0ghz @ 1.3 v. Benchmarks get into the 80s, but gaming and streaming its sitting in the 50s and 60s. If I get a better cooler I know I could go higher.
Hey out of curiosity did you manage to push it past 4GHz on 1.3V? Also what is the upper limit you got it? I am wondering if it goes past 4.2GHz at 1.375v.
my r7 1700 hits 4 Ghz at 1.4 v and is very stable no crashes , but temps go up to 80 or more when stressed at 100% , 70 when gaming, are those temps ok for another year or so? I plan to change it to the 4000 series when they come anyway so it should hold till then right?
Well it depends on the GPU. A high end CPU the overclocking will affect performance slightly. On a lower end GPU overclocking the CPU does nothing to performance as the GPU not the CPU is the bottleneck. However try get the voltage a bit lower than 1.4v
Yes it can. The board should recognize it as R5 1600, so any b450 board should be able to run it fine. Only issue you can get on a b450 board would be with a third gen CPU if your bios is not up to date and can't recognize the new chips that were release an year after the board. Many boards however have no problem if they were manufactured after Rizen 3 released. And many have bios flashback option so you can flash the bios whit no CPU inside. Not sure if yours has the option, I think the elite did have it but I am not 100% certain. And it doesn't mater since the 1600 AF is not third gen its second gen 2600 masquerading as 1600 so it should even run in b350 boards on stock bios from the first zen release.
Microcenter is selling the 2600X at $100 and the 3200G is at $80. Not sure it's worth the time and risk to hunt down the AF, assuming it's the AF version you are getting
We don't all have Microcenters around us especially on the west coast. It's basically best buy, a small business that hopefully hasn't overpriced it's parts, or buying online.
1.2v??????? Oh hell no. Cmon its 75c, you can hit it with at least 1.3-1.35V run at 4.1-4.2GHz and it will not even go past 85c-90c during a stress test. In gaming probably never hit above 70-75c.
I’ve just upgraded my pc to a ryzen 5 1600 af and 8gb ddr4 3000mhz (I plan to get 16gb when I can) but after setting up new system my ram has underclocked it’s self to 2133mhz how can oc it back to 3000mhz my mobo is a msi b450m pro m-2 max
I ran my 2600x accidentally at 4GHz due to a bios setting being enabled by default. It ran up to 97C normally with the most it hit was 103C. I only set it to 3.6 this morning since I was scared it would melt itself
lol. 1.3V at 4GHz...... yeah that should be more than stable and cool AF even on stock cooler. You ether have a problem with bad cooler mounting / paste application, or you have absolutely no airflow in the case. The 2600x should be able to do 4.0Ghz at 1.3V (or even lower like 1.250-1.275) on the stock cooler and stay at 80c-85c depending on room temp during a stress test, and at least 15c cooler in normal operation. Try removing and remounting the cooler with fresh paste application and try the OC with the case side panel off.
So basically if you push this thing to the limit maybe get 10% more performance. I disagree with his statement that you might notice this in gaming. Only going to get 10% more fps if you are completely cpu bound, and even then unless you are staring at the fps counter will never notice the game feel any better. Imho
10%? Yeah sure. Only he did not OC properly. 1.2V? Joke. This gets to 4.1GHz all core easy. And a 6 core 12 thread CPU only for gaming is pointless even in 2020 so yeah you will not notice it much in games. If you are actually doing something like video rendering, re-encoding, AI work etc you will notice it alright.

Fully supported ryzen 2nd gen (even ryzen 9 3900x, vrms can handle 150A) so future upgrades will not be an issue. I highly recommend this board. Vrm's are cool under load, and overclocking section is nice and easy.
Might be a bit pricier then the competition, but well worth it.
I got a 1600af recently and it's been great. It seems to use its turbo boost quite aggressively, hovering around 3.7ghz most of the time.
Mine goes up to 3.45ghz. are you getting 3.7ghz turbo boost without OC? If so, how?
I have the precision boost settings in the bios set to auto, other than that I just let it do its thing.
What motherboard?
Mine goes to 3.65 ghz on turbo boost (b450 tomahawk)
Bruh mine goes up to 3.85 no oc, I don't fucking know how
i also have this cpu and my results are the following:

This was with the fans at the motherboard's stock fan curves, didn't play with them at all.
So I'm not sure if the fan was even running at a 100% or not I would think it was up there though. This wasn't like any crazy thorough test we just picked A frequency that I knew was obtainable and tweak the voltage till I got it stable. This was 3 months ago I'm sure if somebody spent more time they could probly get better results.
Yeah I was wondering if you might show some stats on that ! Nice vid man...love all the tech ideas and comparisons you come up with! Hats off sir!
I think you mean "we're gonna see temperatures *Ryzen.
Here, I had stabilized at 3.75mhz with stock voltages, and up to 3.85mhz at +0.102 voltage and maintain about 75/80°, but I prefer 3.75 without change voltages
Don't forget this is stress test temps. Real world scenario will be 10-15c lower unless you are doing something like video encoding 24/7. This chip can handle 90c no problem its the MoBO VRM staying under 115c that you have to worry about but if you are not running the crappiest of boards you can comfortably go to 1.3V and run 4.1GHz+ OC, get an aggressive fan curve and never see more than 80c during standard operation. People always underestimate the inability of games and day-to-day tasks to get more than 3-6 threads loaded at once. Especially seeing those overblown stress test temps.

Dimitri Jachvadze on the surface, yes x99 looks better. But x99 is a dead platform. And it isnt cheap enough in comparison to am4 to me to be viable for new builders. And experienced builders probably already have something that is equivalent or better, in which case neither the 1600af or cheap xeon is viable.

No freaking way, what did you use to test it ? Im gonna bet my ass you used only cynebench to "test" it
3.85? why? 3.9-4 gig easily achieveable with 1.375 v which is well within tolerance. Most of the Ryzens run at 1.4v if you don't change the voltage. Don't be afraid of pushng a little juice through the temps are fine with the stock cooler. Mine went to 41.5 I settled at 4 gig with 1.375v, parts don't get used for years anymore and I bet over engineered and will still work fine overvolted in 5-10 years time.

Does overclocking RAM and CPU impact PC performance in a negative way? Should you just overclock your CPU or is it better to overclock both components for maximum performance?
if your cooling setup is not enough cpu will throttle so with overclocking you may not gain performance boost as for the ram if timings are loose after increasing ram speed you dont get performance boost either so you gotta find the sweet spot for yourself or you can find overclock tests on internet and try the same.

Hey I just built my pc, my pc doesn’t go straight to my window sign in screen, it takes me to the bios screen then I have to press F8 and all that good stuff, I tried saving the hard drive where I have windows installed as the main driver but it didn’t work
I have an msi mobo and at 1.4V, I can’t even go 3.9GHz stable. But in that stress test, the cpu power consumption doesn’t go over 67W. What is going on in my setup?
First how did you measure CPU power consumption? Only way to know for sure how much power is drained is physically from the wall for the whole system. I would not trust software reading for power measurement.
Your chip sounds like it is behaving like old 1600AE and not the new 1600AF. Are you sure someone did not sell you first gen chip for second gen?
It could be memory issue (90% of issues are memory ;) ) Even if all you did was enabling the profile sometimes RAM just craps up when you OC the CPU. Try setting the ram to 2133 and try again. Rizen has another voltage (depending on mother board the setting is called differently) that should be withing certain range from CPU voltage. If you pushed CPU voltage too far but left that at stock the MoBo might be failing to deliver the necessary power and cause the PC to fail once you push the CPU.
Alexander Radev Yes, power measures were from onboard readings and I was dumb, it was during the aida64 stress test but when I ran a heavier program, it got to much more than that (90W I think?) I was just confused because I saw other reviews while testing on aida and their consumption appeared higher.
I did try to disable XMP but I couldn’t manage it to work...
On cpu Z it shows up as a 12nm cpu, is that accurate?
Edit: the reviews I saw was actually this test haha
And I’m not running any overclock at all, figured out that I couldn’t even reach 3.7ghz stable at voltages up to 1.375v (can’t remember correctly). Some people then started saying it could be my psu, I have no idea...
I recommend doing second test in Cinebench R20. There will be a reset or crash at such temperatures from Aida.
And there will be no issue in real world application ever. He could have went with 1.25-1.3V and went past 4GHz and still have no issue on this cooler in day-to-day operation.
I don't think he was on stock voltage settings for his "auto" test.
I bought a 1600 af for my build and it came with a wraith stealth cooler from amazon and my friend just one from Newegg and his came with a wraith spire. But it was still the af variant so that would explain why it costs more.

Any Help?
( sry for my language)
I hope you understand this.
CPUs are luck based. Sometimes you order the best CPU that can overclock better than any other CPU, sometimes you get a bad one that can't Overclock at all...
Emilio, you can use ryzen master to check the cpu voltages at the coresponding frequencies, ranging from 3.2 to 3.7ghz. In my case, 1600af stays at 1.2v only at 3.2ghz (1.19v actually). 3.7 ghz pulls about 1.265v. But, 4.0ghz is rock stable under stress load with only 1.29v.
It is all "luck of a draw", but getting a decent motherboard and wellknown psu brand will help with oc stability.
That's more important then running your cpu with 1.2v or 1.3v.
Silly question. Are you sure you have the new 1600 AF chip? And not the old 1600 AE? This behavior sounds like 1600 AE chip to me which is the first generation Rizen, while the 1600 AF is second generation Rizen+ (essentially Rizen 2600 with lower price).
picked one up for $91.80 after tax.
Is it worth is to overclock manually though if u stay under 3.6 ghz since ryzen uses precision boost?
Yeah its free performance. It's worth it. Also this chip will never go to 4.1-4.2GHz on precision boost alone.
bought it for 99 euros with a wraith prism,wonder by how much the prism would be better,if it is
A lot better. The stealth is like half the weoght and doesn't have an RGB fan. It should do great on it

The upside is that it's super small compared to most test platforms and makes swapping parts out crazy simple.
I wanted to see how far my 1600AF could be pushed and got it to boot at 1.4V/4.4GHz on a Gammaxx 400 CPU Cooler. CPU-Z Benchmarks: Single Thread Score: 502, and Multithread Score: 4055.3
I think there was even thermal headroom to push it a little further, because the CPU diode temperature at 4.4GHz was only 78°C however my motherboard doesn't allow voltages above 1.4V which it needed to run the clock any faster.
Obviously not stable, I just wanted to see how far the clock speed, voltage, and temps could be pushed, and the answer is pretty dang far!
i Get 85c on 3.7ghz! On Stock Cooler is This From Cpu or The Cooler?
Few options.
Option 1 - your bios by default pushes too much voltage through the chip. Some boards do it on all chips others might do it because they treat the 1600AF as the original 1600 which needed far more voltage to get to higher speeds. Solution is to go to bios and see what voltage is set. If it is too high set it at 1.2-1.25 and you should be able to run at 3.8-3.9Ghz easy.
Option 2 - lack of airflow in the case. Many cases, especially cheaper ones have terrible airflow. Doe your case have good air vents for fresh air. Do you have at least 1 fan in the front and 1 fan at the rear moving air? Is your fan speed sufficient to move enough air? dust filters, front panels especially temper glass can choke the PC. Try removing your side panel and see if your temps improve. Fix airflow if necessary. You can try removing teh front panel and/or dust filters to see if that is the problem.
Option 3 - low fan speed. There is a possibility that your CPU fan is not properly increasing speed with temperature. Make sure you plugged it in the right fan header. Fan curve and speed is controlled through bios. Check to see and increase fan speed if necessary.
Option 4 - bad thermal paste application or cooler is not making good contact. Solution - remove cooler. See how the paste look. If it does not cover the whole CPU you put too little paste. If there are areas on the chip where the paste is too thick or looks different than the rest probably the cooler did not make good contact or was not tightened properly. Reapply paste and reinstall cooler. Remember more paste than necessary is fine. Less than necessary is a problem. In very rare cases your chip and cooler have too big and matching convex on them so they can't make proper contact and need lapping. No cooler or CPU is perfectly even. I would not worry about this though just reapply paste before deciding to sand off the cooler. And do not lap the CPU itself if you have no idea how to do it safely.
Option 5 - you can always have an issue with bad temperature reading. What program are you using to read temperature? Try another one. Software reading is never 100% accurate. For example z77 Asrock boards had an issue with reading temps years ago. What is your board? Some low end boards with bad VRM might develop have an issue and pump more power through the chip to compensate for the shitty VRM and lack of VRM cooling. But if that is the case I'd worry more about your VRM temps if they go past 105c Up to 110c is acceptable for most VRMs.

I am trying to overclock, it's my first time but hopefully I figure it out
so you sayin' the upper limit is 3.85 with stock cooler ??
No. The upper limit is 3.85 on that specific CPU with 1.2v. He chickened out at the start of the race. You can comfortably put more voltage through that chip and get past 4GHz. 1.25-1.275v at 4GHz should be reasonable. Keep in mind every CPU is different. You will have higher temps but that is stress test temperatures he is showing. In actual day-to-day use you will never stress the CPU that much unless you are doing video encoding or something like that. Hell not even then. so you will be 10-15c cooler than stress test temps at worse, unless your case has no airflow. And this CPU can handle 85c for long time in case you somehow manage to find the one game in the world that can push all 12 threads to the max. Many people in the comments of this very video report hitting 4GHZ at 1.3V (sloppy fast OC with no fine tuning but it works ;D) and still get 80c stress test and 50-60c during gaming.

Well it depends on the GPU. A high end CPU the overclocking will affect performance slightly. On a lower end GPU overclocking the CPU does nothing to performance as the GPU not the CPU is the bottleneck. However try get the voltage a bit lower than 1.4v

Can that processor be used on Gygabyte Aorus Elite b450?
Also i love your screw driver! ♥
It can be used on any am4 based motheboard, but you can only use ddr4 ram on it
Yes it can. The board should recognize it as R5 1600, so any b450 board should be able to run it fine. Only issue you can get on a b450 board would be with a third gen CPU if your bios is not up to date and can't recognize the new chips that were release an year after the board. Many boards however have no problem if they were manufactured after Rizen 3 released. And many have bios flashback option so you can flash the bios whit no CPU inside. Not sure if yours has the option, I think the elite did have it but I am not 100% certain. And it doesn't mater since the 1600 AF is not third gen its second gen 2600 masquerading as 1600 so it should even run in b350 boards on stock bios from the first zen release.

I OC'd my R5 2600 to 3,9 on a Wraith Stealth... no problem at all...
I’ve just upgraded my pc to a ryzen 5 1600 af and 8gb ddr4 3000mhz (I plan to get 16gb when I can) but after setting up new system my ram has underclocked it’s self to 2133mhz how can oc it back to 3000mhz my mobo is a msi b450m pro m-2 max
josh webber i think its the xmp profile in the bios not sure tho
I ran my 2600x accidentally at 4GHz due to a bios setting being enabled by default. It ran up to 97C normally with the most it hit was 103C. I only set it to 3.6 this morning since I was scared it would melt itself
And voltage was at 1.3 and it was completely stable
lol. 1.3V at 4GHz...... yeah that should be more than stable and cool AF even on stock cooler.
You ether have a problem with bad cooler mounting / paste application, or you have absolutely no airflow in the case.
The 2600x should be able to do 4.0Ghz at 1.3V (or even lower like 1.250-1.275) on the stock cooler and stay at 80c-85c depending on room temp during a stress test, and at least 15c cooler in normal operation.
Try removing and remounting the cooler with fresh paste application and try the OC with the case side panel off.
I got a x470 motherboard do I need to update the bios for this chip
You shouldn't but I can't verify that.
So basically if you push this thing to the limit maybe get 10% more performance. I disagree with his statement that you might notice this in gaming. Only going to get 10% more fps if you are completely cpu bound, and even then unless you are staring at the fps counter will never notice the game feel any better. Imho
10%? Yeah sure. Only he did not OC properly. 1.2V? Joke. This gets to 4.1GHz all core easy. And a 6 core 12 thread CPU only for gaming is pointless even in 2020 so yeah you will not notice it much in games. If you are actually doing something like video rendering, re-encoding, AI work etc you will notice it alright.
was a decent price, but now it's $135 on amazon.
For now, just wait till this epidemic is gone and prices will get lower!
Is that a Sabertooth 990fx mobo on wall? I just upgraded from it lol
It sure is. It was my first motherboard I ever bought, so it's not going anywhere.
I have with AMD 5 1600 3.9hz at 72 °
Your temps are so much lower than mine, mine are hitting 45 in bios with stock cooler
At stock everything, my 1600af gets at 82C° with my case opened, but closed hits 90C° very fast (I have 2 fans)
I used cinebench
@@nombre652 you fuked up something during assembly, i would recheck if you placed the cpu , fan and paste properly
@@MrDeanDog91 it's been 9 months lol. I will check again my temps and I will see but I haven't had any problem with temps in a while
put it on water and hit 4.1ghz and tell me your voltage level? curious and allow fora 12 hour test overnight. 4.1ghz at 1.32 volts LLC4 on msi b450i gaming plus ac mb, my temps with an master liquid ml240l aio is never over 60c push pull config, 7 120mm fans as well...gtx 1660 super sc ultra... 2400 team group (tlred vulcan) ram cl14 overclocked to 3066mhz cl16 16gb 2x8. even tho its not supposed to go over 2400 it does quite well... micron A die at that...but yea curious to see. my cin r20 score is an even 3200. ran 6 times never different. i do however have ANYTHING killed in windows it doesnt need. all services that doesnt need to be running are always at all times are off...
