The author's Journey to Overclocking a Ryzen CPU

I don't think 1,800 is going to happen wonder if I can push more memory now before I reboot it I did one more test and it did actually complete uh 84.5 C on the on the socket that is that is a lot before I increase the memory I'm going to leave the voltage where it's at I'm going to try 4.2 and unfortunately 4.2 is is not making it to the desktop so back down to 4.1 we go I'm not up in that voltage anymore hell no okay so we going go 3200 memory and I reduced the multiplier to 41 let's see if that will even post oh oh 3200 MHz Ram has just booted show me what you got okay it's running temps are as expected up in the 80s 83 it's going to probably hit 84 cuz I am still running that massive amount of uh VOR stuck at 84 4.25 84.5 oh wow look at that it came down I came all the way down to 1685 by speeding up the memory let's run this again to see what happens I'm not seeing any sort of fluctuation here okay it does feel like it's going slower though that's crazy what do we got 1691 that's crazy so it's still at 4.1 it's not throttling so interestingly enough it never throttled yet we lost approximately 50 points well a little bit over 50 points uh by simply bumping up the memory so I guess the next thing to do is put the memory back down to like the 2933 or whatever it was and see if that score comes back up that's crazy so I have a feeling this score is going to be significantly higher we're not throttling we're still at 4.1 temperature is at 84.5 if we go any higher to probably start the throttle so I'm going to pull the voltage back next but yeah it's okay so it's about to finish I'm expecting over 1,700 on this one yeah 1738 so I slowed the memory down and got a faster result a better result now in order to verify these weird results I've got to go back to 3200 and see if it slows down again and 3200 check okay one last time at 3200 and there we go nothing's throttling we're good let's see what the next score is 1752 so that time it went up H when you get strange results it's important to double check and redo your test because obviously something went weird with that last boot where now I did see a little bit of a jumping speed a 1752 now I know 4.2 is not going to boot and uh I don't I can't even go any faster on the memory without playing with the B clock settings and I'm not going to do that today I think this video has already been long enough but 4.1 at 1752 is pretty impressive my whole mission here today was to see if there was any sort of improvements when when it came to overclocking on ryen in the last 3 weeks especially considering I had some pretty lackluster results initially but the recent updates to the micro code for ryzen's processors and the latest bios especially on the Crosshair uh is giving better results than I was getting even 3 weeks ago so that's a good thing if we're seeing improvements like this already in just 3 weeks I can't wait to see where we are in 3 months and potentially next year um also two this particular bios that I'm using isn't quite out yet it's should be out maybe next week uh but it does has very very minor differences between the uh what is it 904 that's already out uh but you guys can look for this bios here coming out very soon if you're running on a Crosshair board but go ahead and run the the latest official bios on the website and you'll get similar results to this so what I got to do now is I got to fine-tune this voltage the voltage is way too high 85c on water way too hot so I'm going to pull the voltages back I'll probably have to go back down to 4.0 and that's fine with me that's more than more than enough 100 MHz isn't going to make or break how fast things run but uh it could also decrease the stability when I bring down the voltage and that's not okay also make sure you guys stay tuned next week we're going to have some fun here because what's more fun than playing around with a GTX 1080ti playing around with two of them all right guys thanks for watching and as always we'll see you in the next video

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys before you get started with today's video do me a favor and click this video that's going to pop out right here if you guys want to win some amazing PC Hardware that I'm given out as a celebration for the 1 million subscribers that I'm about to pass so with that out of the way make sure you guys are subscribed and following on Twitter and you get two entries into winning that hey I'm trying to shoot a video here my bad you guys have a chance of winning some amazing stuff so go do it do it now what's up guys J2 here coming at you with another ryen video who would have guessed this was going to be a little bit more of a vloggy format because I've well I'm I'm alone today Nick won't be here till tomorrow so we're going to play around with overclocking on ryen there's been a couple of BIOS updates to the Crosshair 6 hero motherboard uh there's been also some micro code updates as well as some more stability uh improvements when it comes to memory all things I was struggling with when I first put this system together so I figured this is kind of a neat video where we're kind of 3 weeks forward from the launch and let's see how much has actually changed in the past 3 weeks cooler Master's master key pro series of keyboards offer 16.7 million color RGB genuine Cherry switches a variety of sizes as well as surface mounted controls allowing full customization without the need for Standalone software learn more by following the link down below I've also got this right here I'm going to be trying out with this this is the new gskill flare X memory as you can see it says designed for AMD ryzen platforms what's funny is right under that it say compatible with ryzen if you ask me if this was designed Verizon this should say compatible with Intel I don't know this actually reminds me a lot of the first ddr4 memory from G skill which was the rip Jaws 4 um the heat spreader looks a lot like it again more of this whole AMD compatible ddr4 um I would hope so since it's uh designed specifically for it at least according to the package another question begs to be asked could I have made it any harder on myself to get this memory out of here with that cross pipe I mean it's doable it's just look at that oo who's cringing right now oh cringy cringey cringe I do feel like the Corsair Vengeance lpx though is much more aesthetically pleasing than the flare X but uh clearly G skill went with more than the bare minimum amount of flare thumbs up if you guys know that movie reference now little disclaimer everything that you guys are about to see is exclusive to the Asus Crosshair 6 hero my 1800x although it should apply also to 1700 and up and then obviously the G skill memory but of course before doing any sort of overclocking attempts make sure you have adequate Cooling and make sure you have all the latest bios and such installed on your uh your system so with that said I obviously have all the latest bios and micro code and everything installed on this system so let's start overclocking and the only reason I even have the AMD ryzen Master software on here is specifically to monitor temperatures we are all stock right now we need a baseline to at least compare where we kind of started from uh but I don't like this software AMD software has always been super buggy I mean look even just trying to move the window around it keeps like sticking why is it that sticky literally like it gets stuck watch this see it stuck again so yeah I'm just using it to monitor temperatures cuz it's really the only accurate way look at that we're already idling in the mid 40s uh on water yeah that's that's water in there well there's other things too but you get the idea now I'm also going to be using cinate bench to just kind of compare our results keep in mind though that cab bench by itself is not a very good way of determining the stability of your system it is nothing more than a benchmark number to give you compar comparative results you need to check it with whatever your daily workflows are the programs you use games and all that sort of stuff to determine its overall reliability with that out of the way let's go ahead and do our Baseline test I want to see the temperatures too here on water stock volts and everything it still shoots up to 61.5 C oh it's a warm chip I'm going to give it that it is it is is a warm chip AMD has stayed true to form on that one okay the results are in and we ran a 1560 on our very first base run it's not too bad and that was at 3.7 GHz uh on all cores so that's the factory settings that's what it did all by itself smt is on all that crap so let's go a and start overclocking something I want you to keep in mind though as we move forward is when I built this system the fastest I could achieve was 4.0 at 2667 memory I was not able to achieve any faster memory speeds even by relaxing the timings if I was anywhere near 4.0 GHz so I'm going to take any speeds faster than that today as an obvious uh Improvement in optimization of BIOS maybe the Ram uh compatibility is helping here I don't know exactly what they changed they don't even say in the package what they changed it just says optimized for ryzen whatever that means so maybe that's going to help moving forward but I'm kind of curious to see how far we can actually push this today most of the reviewers who were doing overclocking guides and whatnot were not able to achieve anything faster than about 3.9 that's one of the reasons why I held off doing my overclocking video as I felt it was a little bit premature to do it out of the gate especially on a brand new architecture like this so let's see if there's any improvements look at that voltage though man that's that's a lot of volts right there I mean I know it can handle it and I believe uh 1.375 is what AMD said don't go higher than when you're doing manual clocking something else I want to mention here cuz there was a lot of comments in there as well when I did my comparison between the 5960x and 1800x and rendering all ddr4 runs 2133 MHz out of the box unless you overclock the memory the speed that you actually see printed on the module is the XMP profile which is a memory overclock the base Ram speed on all ddr4 is 2133 something else I want to mention is people were saying that the 3,000 MHz RAM on the test Ben over there on intel was a was a clear indication that I was trying to stack it um guys this lpx is also 3,000 MHz but it didn't matter they were both running 2667 yeah what that what does that say what does that say fellas does that say 3,000 right it say 3,000 300 what what's that one say does that one say 3,000 I can't I can't tell I don't have my glasses so now that we put all that crap to bed let's go ahead and start playing around this there's actually a few overclocking profiles already included with the Crosshair motherboard so what I'm going to do is I'm going to load the 4 GHz OC profile and kind of start from there and I want to see what it changed here so I put the memory to 2400 MHz um I put the multiplier to 40 our B clock stays at 100 the divider stays the same custom CPU core ratio says Auto um but anyway I put it to 40 there so let's go ahead and change the memory frequency as well to 2933 let's just see we can even boot that voltage I don't like the high voltage number so I'm going to change that myself and I'm going to try something lower like a 1.375 and I'm going to see if it even works okay we're looking for the green light H we got a green light so therefore that means we're going to Bo we're going to boot let's wait for it there it is I mean the fact that I'm even posting is a big deal because I couldn't even get that far I would just get a nine an error code nine on the motherboard before if I tried to go anywhere over like I said that 266 with a 4 gigs uh CPU so the fact that we're in Windows now is already an improvement that's pretty cool all right I'm looking for a couple of things here one uh our idle temps as you can see have already jumped up to well it's in the mid to Upper 50s I saw a 61 there but we are running 4 gigs and just it didn't save our stock result though what was it a 1517 I believe that's what it was all right let's go and run the CPU and see if we even start do we crash do we finish temps have already gone up to 75 76 we staying at 4 gigs it's not throttling at all 100% utilization and our score went up to a 1717 that was quick and easy by just clicking a couple buttons you can also hit like if you know the the struggles of just making sure you don't miss the post you know to get into the BIOS cuz then you got to wait for Windows to boot and start all over going to mash it Mash Mash mash Mash mash some like to hold it I like to finger it so our core voltage did stay under 1.4 it's funny though cuz I put 1.3 75 and you can see it went up to 1395 I just don't like that it does a different value than I tell it what's the point of manual mode if it does what it wants to do anyway now the cool thing about the 4 gigs though is all we did was load the preset reduce the voltage a little bit and bump up the memory to 2933 now I don't want to go any faster on the memory just yet my next jump is 3200 I want to see if we can get 4.1 out of this if there's the green wow are we actually going to boot 4.1 I've never got holy hell the thing I find kind of surprising about all of this though is we're still sitting on much less voltage than it was actually giving stock at stock I was seeing it go as high as like 1.48 stock let's see if it starts the cinebench test lets alone completes it so there we are 4.1 temps are the same because we haven't really changed the voltage at all loud truck driving by and let's start it h I was afraid that ryzen has probably one of the most dramatic crashes when it comes to overclocking like Intel will kind of blue screen or it will just hard stop or hard lock AMD just like black screen and you're just kind of left going what happened okay so what I'm going to do right now is instead of pulling the the megahertz back I'm going to try and bump up the voltage a little bit well this is that this is actually nice to see it detects that the overclock failed and it wants me to run the setup on the previous bios it never did that ever that was kind of neat you know what I'm going to do I'm going to put the voltage mode on man I want to see where it tries to bring this puppy oh my God I'm getting too old to spin do spinning the other way clear a Bad spin going one way nope it just makes it worse we are at 4.1 so I have no idea what the volts are going to be I expect this temperature to jump up quite a bit so let's see if we get the same crash here at 4.1 oh yep there it goes damn you ryen huh check this out even though I left it at Auto it didn't give us any more volts than we had when we had it manually set so let's go ahead and manually set that to like 1.45 what the hell why not I mean if I blow it up that's really going to suck I don't think it's going to blow up I mean it would suck to replace this CPU I'm going to say the new voltage took effect because we've gone up significantly on our idle temps it went all the way up as high as like 63 a second ago all right come on baby just make it through one just make it through one test come on baby come on baby we're not throttling we're still at 4.1 83.7 see it's very hot but ah look at that, 1755 I don't think 1,800 is going to happen wonder if I can push more memory now before I reboot it I did one more test and it did actually complete uh 84.5 C on the on the socket that is that is a lot before I increase the memory I'm going to leave the voltage where it's at I'm going to try 4.2 and unfortunately 4.2 is is not making it to the desktop so back down to 4.1 we go I'm not up in that voltage anymore hell no okay so we going go 3200 memory and I reduced the multiplier to 41 let's see if that will even post oh oh 3200 MHz Ram has just booted show me what you got okay it's running temps are as expected up in the 80s 83 it's going to probably hit 84 cuz I am still running that massive amount of uh VOR stuck at 84 4.25 84.5 oh wow look at that it came down I came all the way down to 1685 by speeding up the memory let's run this again to see what happens I'm not seeing any sort of fluctuation here okay it does feel like it's going slower though that's crazy what do we got 1691 that's crazy so it's still at 4.1 it's not throttling so interestingly enough it never throttled yet we lost approximately 50 points well a little bit over 50 points uh by simply bumping up the memory so I guess the next thing to do is put the memory back down to like the 2933 or whatever it was and see if that score comes back up that's crazy so I have a feeling this score is going to be significantly higher we're not throttling we're still at 4.1 temperature is at 84.5 if we go any higher to probably start the throttle so I'm going to pull the voltage back next but yeah it's okay so it's about to finish I'm expecting over 1,700 on this one yeah 1738 so I slowed the memory down and got a faster result a better result now in order to verify these weird results I've got to go back to 3200 and see if it slows down again and 3200 check okay one last time at 3200 and there we go nothing's throttling we're good let's see what the next score is 1752 so that time it went up H when you get strange results it's important to double check and redo your test because obviously something went weird with that last boot where now I did see a little bit of a jumping speed a 1752 now I know 4.2 is not going to boot and uh I don't I can't even go any faster on the memory without playing with the B clock settings and I'm not going to do that today I think this video has already been long enough but 4.1 at 1752 is pretty impressive my whole mission here today was to see if there was any sort of improvements when when it came to overclocking on ryen in the last 3 weeks especially considering I had some pretty lackluster results initially but the recent updates to the micro code for ryzen's processors and the latest bios especially on the Crosshair uh is giving better results than I was getting even 3 weeks ago so that's a good thing if we're seeing improvements like this already in just 3 weeks I can't wait to see where we are in 3 months and potentially next year um also two this particular bios that I'm using isn't quite out yet it's should be out maybe next week uh but it does has very very minor differences between the uh what is it 904 that's already out uh but you guys can look for this bios here coming out very soon if you're running on a Crosshair board but go ahead and run the the latest official bios on the website and you'll get similar results to this so what I got to do now is I got to fine-tune this voltage the voltage is way too high 85c on water way too hot so I'm going to pull the voltages back I'll probably have to go back down to 4.0 and that's fine with me that's more than more than enough 100 MHz isn't going to make or break how fast things run but uh it could also decrease the stability when I bring down the voltage and that's not okay also make sure you guys stay tuned next week we're going to have some fun here because what's more fun than playing around with a GTX 1080ti playing around with two of them all right guys thanks for watching and as always we'll see you in the next videohey guys before you get started with today's video do me a favor and click this video that's going to pop out right here if you guys want to win some amazing PC Hardware that I'm given out as a celebration for the 1

massive amount of uh VOR stuck at 84 4.25 84.5 oh wow look at that it came down I came all the way down to 1685 by speeding up the memory let's run this again to see what happens I'm not seeing any sort of fluctuation here okay it does feel like it's going slower though that's crazy what do we got 1691 that's crazy so it's still at 4.1 it's not throttling so interestingly enough it never throttled yet we lost approximately 50 points well a little bit over 50 points uh by simply bumping up the memory so I guess the next thing to do is put the memory back down to like the 2933 or whatever it was and see if that score comes back up that's crazy so I have a feeling this score is going to be significantly higher we're not throttling we're still at 4.1 temperature is at 84.5 if we go any higher to probably start the throttle so I'm going to pull the voltage back next but yeah it's okay so it's about to finish I'm expecting over 1,700 on this one yeah 1738 so I slowed the memory down and got a faster result a better result now in order to verify these weird results I've got to go back to 3200 and see if it slows down again and 3200 check okay one last time at 3200 and there we go nothing's throttling we're good let's see what the next score is 1752 so that time it went up H when you get strange results it's important to double check and redo your test because obviously something went weird with that last boot where now I did see a little bit of a jumping speed a 1752 now I know 4.2 is not going to boot and uh I don't I can't even go any faster on the memory without playing with the B clock settings and I'm not going to do that today I think this video has already been long enough but 4.1 at 1752 is pretty impressive my whole mission here today was to see if there was any sort of improvements when when it came to overclocking on ryen in the last 3 weeks especially considering I had some pretty lackluster results initially but the recent updates to the micro code for ryzen's processors and the latest bios especially on the Crosshair uh is giving better results than I was getting even 3 weeks ago so that's a good thing if we're seeing improvements like this already in just 3 weeks I can't wait to see where we are in 3 months and potentially next year um also two this particular bios that I'm using isn't quite out yet it's should be out maybe next week uh but it does has very very minor differences between the uh what is it 904 that's already out uh but you guys can look for this bios here coming out very soon if you're running on a Crosshair board but go ahead and run the the latest official bios on the website and you'll get similar results to this so what I got to do now is I got to fine-tune this voltage the voltage is way too high 85c on water way too hot so I'm going to pull the voltages back I'll probably have to go back down to 4.0 and that's fine with me that's more than more than enough 100 MHz isn't going to make or break how fast things run but uh it could also decrease the stability when I bring down the voltage and that's not okay also make sure you guys stay tuned next week we're going to have some fun here because what's more fun than playing around with a GTX 1080ti playing around with two of them all right guys thanks for watching and as always we'll see you in the next video\n"
