Overclocking Tests

Our regular method of overclocking Ryzen processors is to raise the voltage to 1.3825V, increase the all-core multiplier in small steps until the chip cannot complete our Blender test that lasts around 11 minutes on a Ryzen 5.

We achieved an all-core 4.5GHz on the Ryzen 5 3600XT, compared to 4.325GHz on the regular 3600X. That's a decent uplift when using exactly the same overclocking methodology.

Nice little boost here.

We'd argue that overclocking is worth it when you can guarantee 4.5GHz on all cores.
