Hello guys i am new to overclocking i have ryzen 5 1600 and i started to raise the speed by +100mhz everytime (3.2 then 3.3...) without raising the voltage and see how far i can go i am currently at 3.8ghz and the max voltage i see running cinebench is 1.26volts i guess thats the stock and everything running fine is all this safe running with this speed and that voltage?Temps are around 30-33 idle and 50-55 full load with msi core frozr l

If it's stable then it is fine. Voltage seems very low, as is temperature although I'm not familiar with Core Frozr. You might try Prime95 small FFT stress test. Don't be alarmed if it crashes, needing more voltage to stay stable and temperature goes higher, as you've got lots of margin for both before there should be concerns!

What motherboard are you using and what CPU cooler?

I have gigabyte AX370 gaming k5 motherboard and as i said i have MSI Core Frozr L cpu cooler.Well i run the Prime95 test i see in task manager cpu usage is 100% the temps are stuck 60-61c and the core voltage goes from 1.248 to 1.260 and back.The system feels stable no crash.

 


Temperature looks good. I'd definitely push on for 3.9Ghz and you've lots of room for voltage to increase and keep stable!

Like I said...I don't know what CoreFrozr is. I thought maybe it was a CPU stress test bundled with MSI Afterburner or something :)
