Today we undervolt and overclock the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 processor up to 5800 MHz.
I do this by leveraging Precision Boost Overdrive tools like Fmax Boost Override, Curve Optimizer, but also delve into memory subsystem tuning, asynchronous eCLK, and OC Mode.
In this video, I break down the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 tuning process into five unique overclocking strategies for beginner and advanced overclockers.
00:00 Intro
01:49 Stock Performance
03:23 OC Strategy #1: PBO Enable + EXPO
07:04 OC Strategy #2: PBO Tuned (Fmax, Scalar, Curve Optimizer)
16:46 Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 V/F Discussion
17:57 OC Strategy #3: Memory Tuned (FCLK, UCLK, MCLK)
25:06 OC Strategy #4: PBO ECLK Tuned with Curve Shaper
36:13 OC Strategy #5A: OC Mode (AVX-512)
43:54 OC Strategy #5B: OC Mode (SSE)
46:48 Let's Wrap Things Up
