Hello,

So I've built my new system yesterday -everything was fine that day. Next day i wanted to try the Ryzen Master software, and like a fucking retard I messed up with some things. I set it at 3.7ghz and 1.25 voltage then I hit apply, nothing happened for about 5s then the PC shutdown. I've restarted it and after it boots (i get to see the desktop), it turns of again...is there a way of reverting the settings to default? I can't do it fast enough or the system does not boot fast enough so i can reset it to default from the Ryzen master.

Things I've tried:
Reset CMOS
Reset bios settings to default
Let the pc off for about an hour

Specs:
MSI b350 Tomahawk

R5 1600X

Gtx 1080

16gb Ram 3200mhz (running at default 2133, did not mess with ram yet)

Please help a noob T_T

Few things:

Ryzen Master is iffy, you're better off overclocking through your BIOS.

You probably need to up the voltage, I don't know if you came from Intel but Ryzen CPUs operate at a different voltage scale than the blue team does.

Make sure your RAM and PSU are good, if you have a bad RAM kit it will stop your overclocking efforts dead in their tracks. Try running memtest or prime95 overnight.
