Please post your AmD Ryzen Cpu 1700, 1700X and 1800X overclocking results and its voltage from 4Ghz or more. Post your Core temps and your cooling system used.
Any stable benchmarks to get there will do.
Any AmD motherboard brands also welcome.

Start with Maxon Cinebench R15.038 - https://www.maxon.net/en/products/cinebench/

I will post mine soon with my Cpu and my board up.

Key Features of this Solid AORUS AX-370 Gaming 5
GA-AX370-Gaming 5 (rev. 1.0) | Motherboard | GIGABYTE



Ryzen 7 1700X, a new CPU from AMD, based on the Zen (Summit Ridge) architecture. It has eight cores, 16 threads, 3.4 GHz base clock, 3.8 GHz turbo clock, TDP of 95 W, and uses the new AM4 socket. Check it out!
After several years, AMD finally launched a new generation of CPUs, based on a brand new architecture, called Zen, using the new AM4 socket. The first CPUs based on this new socket are called Ryzen 7 and they are high-end processors. AMD already announced the Ryzen 5 (mainstream) and Ryzen 3 (entry) families.
The first models on the market are the Ryzen 7 1700, the Ryzen 7 1700X, and the Ryzen 7 1800X, all of them with eight cores and 16 threads, thanks to the SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading) technology, similar to Intel’s Hyper-Threading technology, which simulates two logic cores on each physical core.
Ryzen CPUs use the new AM4 socket, and are compatible with DDR4 memory. This means they are incompatible with “old” motherboards that use AM3+ and FM2+ sockets.
These new CPUs are manufactured under 14 nm “FinFET” technology. Each core has 128 kiB L1 cache and 512 kiB L2 cache, and there is an 8 MiB L3 shared cache for each four-core block. The Ryzen 7 1700X is made with two of those blocks, with a total of 4 MiB of L2 cache and 16 MiB of L3 cache. That’s why AMD says the CPU has a 20 MiB cache.

Setting-up this amazing AmD Ryzen chipset was a breeze.
Booting up from existing platform OS W10 64bit, without any single issue.
Using both USB Keyboard and mouse.
Detecting my existing network too, bravo!
After that i load the AmD Chipset drivers.

Quickly did a ** bench, nice numbers too, all at default setting.
8cores! 16threads! Oh yes!

Can share why you got 1700X instead of 1700? I considering between these 2 myself.

What cooling system you using? And how far can XFR bump the clock speed? Just 0.1ghz or more than that by default without oc?

Sent from Overpowered Phone Mark III using GAGT

Air-cooling Sir :)
by default meaning "auto" and not yet disable those "Eist".
So it does Not runs fix speed.
It runs from 3.5 to 3.9GHz, as u can see from the pic.
Did a quick print screen, thankfully it captured both speeds.

MD Ryzen 7 1800X 8/16 16MB 95W 3.6GHz 4.0 GHz US$499

AMD Ryzen 7 1700X 8/16 16MB 95W 3.4GHz 3.8GHz US$399

AMD Ryzen 7 1700 8/16 16MB 65W 3.0GHz 3.7GHz US$349

1700 is better value for an 8/16 cpu chip :)
Overclock it :D

Only a tiny percentage of Ryzen chips can hit 4GHz, regardless of voltage

Some stats to crunch on.

1700
As of 3/13/17, the top 77% of 1700s were able to hit 3.9GHz or greater.
As of 3/13/17, the top 26% of 1700s were able to hit 4.0GHz or greater.

1700x
As of 3/13/17, the top 81% of 1700Xs were able to hit 3.9GHz or greater.
As of 3/13/17, the top 29% of 1700Xs were able to hit 4.0GHz or greater.

1800x
As of 3/13/17, the top 97% of 1800Xs were able to hit 3.9GHz or greater.
As of 3/13/17, the top 73% of 1800Xs were able to hit 4.0GHz or greater.

Most are based on core voltage between 1.39-1.4.

3.9@1.3v set in bios. 1.312v reported in the hardware monitor screen but cpuz reading is wonky only gave me 0.712v.

4.0ghz@1.425

And lastly 4.1ghz with an insane voltage of 1.65v reported in bios monitor with deepcool captain 360 aio with temps in the high 90s:s22: running cinebench.

Thanks for sharing...I was going on what people in other forums claimed they were getting, a lot of them grumbling about not hitting 4GHz. I suppose those who can hit 4GHz are using their rigs and not posting in forums

Edit:There might be another reason. siliconlottery uses 1 hour of RealBench as 'stable'. Most internet overclockers in forums use overnght Prime95 stress tests, which are much tougher. It comes down to what people consider as stable

I actually may be able to hit 4ghz but the temps really putting me away.

75degC is for 3.9ghz 1.375v on r1 ulti cooler. Good enough for me.

If really need to go for 4ghz i think i probably need a min aio lol. Probably something large surface area like a 360mm radiator to cool it down.
