Honestly, with a 5950X, stock settings aren't bad. When you exceed 75% total cpu usage the program pushes you to a defined (P1) low voltage all core static clock around 4.3GHz just to keep your temps low and your silicon safe. If you exceed 25% total cpu usage but less than 75%, it will boost you to a defined all core static clock (P2) like option 1, but it only will do this when your gaming or doing something that's putting you between 25-75% usage. With hybrid oc the program will run stock cpu settings at less than 5% total cpu usage. It would bench high if you forced a specific profile. Again, if set up correctly, this method will give pretty crappy benchmark results but that's not the point. The idea with the"higher" negative offsets on your fast cores is that since their most likely to boost, you don't want to short them much voltage.ģ) CTR hybrid OC.

If you open Ryzen Master it shows you your "fast cores" for CCX2 and you can give those cores a little less negative offset too, like -10 -12. So curve should be like -8 -10 and then -20 for the rest. 20 across all cores except your fastest, which will always be core 0 in a dual CCX chip like your 5950x. CTR tune can find your best clock per a voltage with the Tune tool.Ģ) PBO with Negative curve values. Might need to knock it down to something lower for your cooling solution. However, with 16 cores on the 5950X you may find that 1.375v can't be cooled effectively. Just leave it it's best clock rate for 1.375v (a high ish voltage but still sub 1.4v).

I'd say there's three common methods to "OC" your 5950x.ġ) Static OC. It can be easily set it up to give you high all core OC static though. Its designed to downclock during all core workloads (CPU Benchmark), at least if set up with hybrid oc. Click to expand.CTR is a great tool, but it's not really meant for benchmarks.
