I have recently build a Ryzen system. I have fully dialed in the manual overclocks I want. However, whether or not PBO is enabled or disabled. My processor is not thermal throttling. What is the proper way to ensure
Relevant specs as follows:
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 4.125Ghz @ 1.2v core 1.15v SoC
MB: Gigabyte Aorus B550 Master
RAM: 4 sticks of 16GB RAM 3400 16 20 20 20 38 @ 1.35v
HSF: AXP 100 full copper
I can lower CPU voltages to 1.175v on core but my Cinebench score lowers, increasing to 1.25v does not improve score.
C-states are on in my BIOS. I also would prefer overclocking in BIOS over using Ryzen Master.
I did read that PROCHOT option is in Ryzen Master and have not tested if this solves my problem as using Ryzen Master is not my preferred mode of overclocking.
Here is what HWiNFO looks like. It shot up to 97C in P95 and thermal throttling did not occur. In Cinebench R20 I am able to maintain 70C average.
Ultimately my goal is to throttle in case I do accidentally run an AVX workload.
