It used to be in my X470 AORUS Gaming 7 before I upgraded from the 2700X to 3900X, and it was in my B450M-DS3H build before I handed it off to my uncle when his system died on him.
I had a bad chip, since it hated running below 1.4v at 4.2 all core.

My 3900X is decent in terms of the silicon lottery; I ended up with 4.55, 4.45, 4.35, and 4.25 on CCX1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively with 1.38v on the core. Max 87.5 C in small fft AVX test in P95 under an H115i RGB Platinum, doesn't go above 60 while gaming.
I tried to do 4.6, 4.5, 4.4, and 4.3 at 1.38~1.4v but it wouldn't even POST, and it probably wouldn't be safe even if it did pass at 1.4v.

don't worry today with ryzen overclocking isn't really needed.
Fact most high end good X070 and up will self oc.
Max I pushed was 1.5v on the cpu. Yes I know it's kinda high but 4.6ghz isn't easy and plus I have water cooling and good fan setup. I wouldn't push any chip to 1.5v cause it can be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing and plus on my old B350 I wouldn't barely hit 4.2ghz

PBO has been broken since AGESA versions above 1.0.0.2 (which was where it was when Zen2 launched), it hasn't worked properly since Zen2 was released. Voltages are still way out of whack outside of an idle state, clocks on the good chiplets are still awful (nobody is getting more than stock turbo), and the CPU ends up throttling itself more than it boosts itself.

ASRock recommends that users of Zen and Zen+ leave their BIOS at versions with AGESA 1.0.0.2, as newer versions like 1.0.0.3 ABB ruined those older CPUs' boosting ability. L1T covered it.

Weird I have the newest Bios for mine and it works.

Maybe they fixed it with 1.0.0.4. But 1.0.0.3 was awful for past gens. PBO is still crap with Zen2 though because it's not all-core boosting, it's per CCX, and the CCXs are not created equally

There is programs to monitor each core.

Not what I mean.

The 3900X has 2 chiplets, and the following is the same story with every 3900X: One chiplet is the "good" chiplet, and the second chiplet is the "bad" one. The good one will generally reach advertised boost frequencies under the right circumstances, while the bad one just doesn't.

This is why people who do "Per CCX" type overclocking with Zen2 have to run their frequencies in a way where each subsequent CCX is a certain frequency below the previous one. CCD 1, which contains the 3900X's CCXs 1 and 2, is the good chiplet, while CCD 2 containing CCXs 3 and 4 is the bad chiplet. The bad chiplet simply can't do the same frequencies that the good chiplet can with the same voltage. 4.6 all-core on the 3900X (turbo boost speed that they advertise) is pretty much impossible to run safely for a long period of time.

It's different with Ryzen 5 and 7 chips, however, as they have only one chiplet as opposed to Ryzen 9's two chiplets. Doesn't make a difference, as many users struggle with getting 4.2 all-core to work with 1.3+ volts with the 3700X. All-core overclocks are just dead with Zen2, Per CCX OC with AGESA 1.0.0.4 B is the way to go right now. I saw sizeable improvements over PBO with my 3900X in both synthetics and actual gaming performance; nothing absolutely massive but it's more than enough to show that leaving it at stock/auto just leaves performance to be desired. Disabling SMT when you don't need the extra threads is also recommended, as SMT still has issues with more games than it doesn't.

I am waiting for 3000x series I am happy with 2700x cause all the issues I had was fixed over time.

There's no logical reason to move up from the 2700X anyway, I only did it because I wanted to.

yet wait for 4000x or 5000x for me to upgrade.
One of those will not be on am4 socket.

Yeah, I'm likely to wait until at least the 5000 series (Zen4) as well

Why you upgraded from 2700x to 3900x? Ryzen 7 can run evrything at max settigns 60+ fps. Upgrading graphics card is the only thing we need for now not cpu. That why when i upgrade graphics card iwill keep the cpu even if the graphics card is 100% more powerful than RTX 2080 TI.

Did you not read? I upgraded because I said I wanted to, and even said that there was no point.

He upgraded so he can feel better, about being a pillow biter. He likes being mr guru, as he states on his page- "Need technical help? Make a thread in the Hardware & Operating Systems sub-forum and I'll be glad to assist you."

Oh and i have blocked you Mr wannabe guru, so reply if you want but i won't be reading it. I guess I just don't like you, you're just one of them people that rub me up the wrong way, and make me angry and aggressive, I can't explain it. I will stop commenting on your posts and try and leave you alone or I will just get myself in trouble again.


I have switched out the gtx 760 for a gtx 1060, which has made a nice difference, I can run all my games at 1080 on high or ultra settings now, much better. My pc is a paupers build, but I don't care what anyone thinks, you have to play with the cards you are dealt, and accept it.

My specs again-

I7 870 with Noctua NH-D15 cooler
Asus p7p55D evo
4x4 ddr3 1333 (2x8gb 1866 soon)
Msi gtx 1060 gaming x 3gb

Wrong. You're just projecting hatred onto people who did nothing to you. I didn't even say anything to you and you got mad faster than radical feminists got mad at "manspreading."
I upgraded because I wanted to, it's as simple as that. You're just getting mad because I can nonchalantly buy a 500$ CPU.
I never said your build was actually bad and agreed with you that if it's good enough for you that it's fine, but I disagreed with Half Pint's propensity to make people take more pride in outdated hardware (that was vastly outpaced by Sandy Bridge almost a decade ago) than necessary. Even old hardware enthusiasts like Snow scoff at Nehalem architecture.

I never said I was a technical guru, only you did. We've been through this already, let the unhealthy obsession go.

If you don't want to get in trouble, then why you keep inferring that I'm a homosexual bottom, instead of just letting ♥♥♥♥ go? You made one comment before, telling me to go "do my boyfriend," (which doesn't exist because I'm not gay, stop being a homophobe and using that subject as an insult to people, it's 2019 going on 2020, not 1953) and now you're saying that I'm a pillow biter, and everyone knows what that's supposed to insinuate. You already got in trouble for that once, and you're already doing it again after just being unbanned because you can't help yourself, that's your problem.

Don't waste the money on DDR3-1866, you'll gain nothing in terms of gaming performance from 533 MHz, and that is a fact. At most, you'll get 2 FPS.
At least upgrading from a 2700X to a 3900X is an actual upgrade, whereas going from a 1333 kit to an 1866 kit just isn't.
