r/overclocking on Reddit: 5800X PBO settings...?
December 7, 2022 -

Hi everyone,

New owner of 5800X rig here. I made my fair share of investment to make my machine as quiet as possible and noticed that Noctua NH-D15 is good enough to warrant fair headroom for OC before taking off. I was fully aware that 5800X is quite hot out of the box, so I started tweaking nearly instantly with how to tame it - I managed to figure out the following using scattered info on this sub:

  • Curve optimizer per core, all cores at -30 (automatically set by Ryzen Master)

  • PPT/TDC/EDC: 120/80/120

  • Boost override CPU: 200

  • Temperature limit: 85*C (I set my fans curve to be as quiet as possible before 80*C mark, after they linearly scale with temp to 100% at 90*C)

  • FLCK & others - auto

I have not touched any other values to simply prevent myself from doing any damage to my mobo/cpu. Current Cinebench R23 score is 15294 compared to original 14100-ish, machine sustained Prime95 + Furmark for half an hour without being noisy nor any odd behaviors.

My CPU-related specifications:

  • Ryzen 5800X + Noctua NH-D15

  • Gigabyte AORUS ELITE v2 B550 (latest bios)

  • 32GB 3600MHz CL16 Kingston Renegade Black

  • Seasonic PX-750 Platinum

Are there any other things I can try optimizing? Are any of those settings unnecessarily high/low? I do not mind "safe" overclocking, as long as it doesn't mean double digit wattage increases for tiny gains. Thanks!

Question - Recommend PBO Settings for Ryzen 7 5800x | Tom's Hardware Forum
August 17, 2023 - How you can tell which core don't like it if you look at the WHEA error and see what the APIC ID is, if its ID is 0 or 1, its going to be CPU 0 that don't like that value, if the ID is 6 or 7, means core 3 doesn't like that value. My 5900x 2 of my cores don't like much past -15, the other ones will do -30 with no issues what so ever, and thats with a +200mhz that PBO allowed to go over stock.

Hello all, recently started tweaking the BIOS and seeing what kind of numbers I could get on cinebench. Highest I have achieved is 15,950ish. DOCP enabled, PBO on, curve set to all cores negative and 30, no extra boost mhz.

5800x - settings, aside from curve and power, to reduce heat | Overclock.net
May 21, 2023 - The 5800x designed to reach higher clocks at the expence of the power consumed. Hence it has the 60% higher TDP than that of 5700x. Try to limit its EDC supply a bit as the quick fix, this has less of impact on performance. ... I pretty much have all my PBO limits as good as they are going to get.

r/Amd on Reddit: 5800x PBO2 Settings Inquiry
November 15, 2021 -

I recently upgraded to a ryzen 7 5800x and very new to PBO2. I was watching a bunch of videos online and tried to come up with my own custom settings for a stable setup. Here are my settings so far:

PBO Limits: Motherboard

Curve optimizer: Per Core Negative 15 on all except for Core 3 and 7 which are the star cores from Ryzen Master

I also set the Platform Thermal Throttle Limit to Manual and set it to 70C. Is it bad that I am forcing such a demanding limit? If i keep it to auto my cpu still occasionally skyrockets to the 80's level but on average manages to keep a mid 60s level in games. With the above settings im doing a multicore score on r23 of 14337. Im not too particular about synthetic benchmark scores I just want to be working on a stable temps within a 70-71C max because I've also found the sweet spot undervolt for my 3080 ti to run at the same temps

Hi

2 days ago i started with tinkering around in my pbo 2.0 settings for better temps i think i need some help with it my effective core clock doesn't match with my normal clock is that normal? its a differences around 250 MHz in MC Tests what makes me very unhappy right now. My Clocks are on the picture with HWinfo is there any way for improvement and keeping the same temps

My Setup:Ryzen 7 5800x

Asus Tuf RTX 3080 Ti

DDR 4 3600 Crucial Ballistix

X570 I AORUS PRO WIFI

all in a mini itx Nzxt H1 v1 at Max 78-79 Celsius idle around 43

My Pbo Setting PPT: 130 TDC: 80 EDC: 120

Scalar 4x (what does actually nothing for me)

CPU Boost Clock overdrive: 50 Positive

Stable Tested with OCCT Core Cycling Curve Optimizer: Core 0: -27 Core 1: -30 Core 2: -30 Core 3: -21 Core 4: -20 Core 5: -20 Core 6: -20 Core 7: -20

Score R20: MC 5725- 5750 Pretty Bad i Guess at stock its higher SC 625

CPU-Z: MC 6555 SC 672

Score R23: MC 14663 SC 1590

r/overclocking on Reddit: Ryzen 7 5800x pbo / help
February 1, 2024 -

My pc components are : Ryzen 7 5800x Mai p240 liquid cooler Rtx 4070 ti 32 gb 3600mhz ram 650w psu

Hello, I made pbo on Ryzen 7 5800x processor. My settings were ppt 120, tdc 75, edc 130 and curve optimizer was all cores negative 25.

After made these settings, I tested with cinebench and the test ended and the computer did not shut down. When I start playing games, for example CS2, after playing about 3 games, the PC shuts down or after spending 3-4 hours on the computer. I Tested the temperature and The temperature never exceeded 70 degrees. My main reason to do pbo is decrease temperature. So, I'm not really interested in overclocking, but my goal is to reduce the performance as little as possible and reduce the temperature.

What should I do? I appreciate if you help me :)

r/AMDHelp on Reddit: 5800X PBO/CO settings - Ryzen Master &/or UEFI
November 18, 2024 -

Hey all, just wanted to share my experience with PBO/CO settings after tirelessly sifting through too many confusing reddit and forum posts about "optimal" curve optimizers and PBO settings. I was having issues with Ryzen auto-tuning CO/PBO settings, it never said it was stable. And yes, silicone lottery, what's your cooling situation, yadayadayada... Got it to find a per-core setting that was stable, with much lower PBO settings than the motherboard "out-the-box" settings (Running Gigabyte x570 Elite Wifi. It found -25 to -28 undervolt per core as opposed to my -20 all core settings. Cinebench wouldn't finish, PC just kept stalling/hanging and rebooting, and anytime I did get a benchmark to complete, clock speeds topped out at 4.85 GHz 75 C loads (Ryzen master settings) compared to 5.1 GHz 69 C loads (Mobo/Advanced UEFI PBO settings, -20 All core).

TLDR; out of the box mobo PBO settings and finding a stable all core undervolt gave me faster and more stable overclocks than struggling with Ryzen Master and 'optimizing' based off forum & reddit posts. Everyone's PC will be different, but if you're wasting time and struggling to find decent performance from RM PBO/CO settings, I suggest just using your motherboards limits and finding a stable all core undervolt in UEFI. Much easier and less frustrating.

Specs:

Mobo: Gigabyte Aorus x570 Elite Wifi
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800x

RAM: 2 x 16gb 3600mhz G.Skill CL19 DDR4

GPU: Asus RTX 3070 DUAL OC

Storage: Buncha old and slow 1TB Samsung SATA EVO's (850, 750) , 1TB NVME 970 Pro, 2 external 2TB NVME/USBC Samsung drives, and 1TB 15k rpm Seagate HDD.

PSU: 850w Thermaltake G3 (Non-Modular) ATX 3.0

Air cooled, been building out of this case since I was a young lad (20 years).

Help with 5800x Ryzen Master settings | Overclockers UK Forums
April 23, 2022 - I would suggest setting the PPT, TDC and EDC values in the BIOS and setting a 50mHz PBO offset for a small boost to clocks then setting a core offset of -20 on each core in the BIOS under Curve Optimiser, -15 on the preferred 2 cores (0 if Ryzen Master said 1, 7 if Ryzen master said 8...).

Salut tout le monde !

Je suis nouveau dans l'overclocking et je cherche à obtenir plus de performances de mon 5800x que j'ai depuis 2 ans.

Voici mes spécifications actuelles qui peuvent être utiles dans ce processus :

  1. 5800x

  2. Corsair RM650w 80 plus gold

  3. X570S Aorus Pro AX

  4. 32GB 3200mhz de Corsair Vengeance

  5. NZXT Z53 240mm AIO.

Dites-moi comment je peux commencer avec le PBO !

Merci !

r/overclocking on Reddit: I changing the PBO settings on a 5800x
June 23, 2022 -

After overclocking the ram I wanted to try buffing up the cpu. What i learn is that PBO is the way or a static OC. But i don't understand vdrop.

I decided to go with the PBO settings. After doing some reading. The defaults are for a am4 105w chip PPT 142 > 152 PDC 95 > 98 EDC 110 > 110

LLC to 3

The temperature went up to 82c during r20 the score when from 5380 to 5542

My only question is. Are those settings too aggressive? To run it on a daily.

I also noticed when i had the PDC and EDC between 80 and 90 the core clocks during r20 never got over 3.6 GHz when i put the others ones. The core clocks got to 4.6 Ghz. With a top speed of 4.9 Ghz

I wonder if I did it right.
