Hi! I have Ryzen 1600x and it ran 1.5v when it was full stock and not overclocked. It fixed when i updated the bios. I have heard that AMD recommends max 1.4V, and now i overclocked the cpu to 4,0Ghz and tried to set core voltages under 1.4V with core voltage offset, that didnt work it still goes 1.439V when i run cinebench. I read couple topics and someone said that it can easily go under 1.4V with 4,0Ghz. So can someone explain what offset value i have to set to get the cpu voltages under 1.4V? If i change the voltage limit under 1.4V the computer crashes when i run Cinebench. And also when i dropped voltage limit auto->1.4V my OpenGL fps dropped ~112->108 is that normal? Sorry for my bad english, i hope that someone still understands my problems.

on the b350 mobos, at least on the Asus ones you have to use offset.
My 1600x has a VID of 1.375 (which I understand from some posters here) is the max you should set your Vcore at. Your VID might be different. You can check your VID by using Coretemp.
So for my 3.9 OC i started off by setting the vcore (using offset) to 1.325. So the offset i used was - 0.05, which brings the Vcore down to 1.325. You can check it by saving the changes in the bios, and then go back into the bios, and it should say it's at 1.325. Remember that the voltage you see in hardware monitor (or whatever program you use for monitoring ) will nearly always be changing as the load increases/decreases. It doesn't just stay at what you set in the bios.
To get steady at 3.9 i had to bump my vcore to 1.35 and now it's running stable as can be, at about 72c stress temps. I've seen my vcore slightly fluctuate above 1.35, around the 1.375 mark, so i think your results seem right. But, I wouldn't want my chip running over 1.4 for my OC. Maybe reduce the OC to 3.9 and see if you can keep the voltages under 1.4.
Also you can try using LLC, Load Line Calibration, this helps with vdroop. Using LLC can also make your OC more stable. Make sure to research it a little. The advise is to never use the Extreme setting in LLC, as it can overvolt the CPU.

Not all of them will hit 4GHz with 1.4v its all on how lucky you get with the Silicon lottery. A good chip will hit 4.0-4.1 GHz at about 1.425 from what I can tell. Most chips will top out at 3.8-3-9 with 1.4v and others you may hit a wall at 3.7Ghz. Its just on how lucky you get.
