I am attempting to learn to overclock my cpu. I have a ryzen 5 1500x on a B350 tomahawk motherboard. I am currently using the stock wraith cooler.

Do any of you know a safe overclock setting that won't overheat with the stock cooler? I would just like something stable, to learn how to do it. Eventually I will upgrade my cooler and go from there
 
Solution
A multiplier of 37 without touching the voltage is possible in most cases. Just go into the BIOS, set the CPU multiplier/Core Ratio to 37.0, and save and exit. Should be stable if your chip is at least an average one. 3.8 is possible, but with some voltage adjustments, which you should leave for once you get the aftermarket cooler, although you can pull it off with the stock cooler too.
