    1700+, 1.46ghz stock, ran it at 2.4ghz air cooler in a Shuttle SN41G2 which is a small form factor case. It lived in there with three spinny drives (case only had bays for 2, i modified it suspend a third below the stock drive cage), a dvd burner and a radeon 9500 pro. Really good system for its period.
    The bios didnt have multiplier selection so that was set using single wire strand jumpers inserted into the socket.

    This is very timely. When I built my 13900k system last fall, it was the first system I had that was not stable OOB. The motherboard shipped with super aggressive settings, unlimited power limits and I had to undervolt, adjust power limits, limit turbo boost to 55x, etc. just to keep it stable. Recently I decided I wanted to try to push it back up a bit more above 55x and I hit a brick wall. I found that the motherboard had shipped with ICCMax(Core Current Limit) set to auto which meant my current was spiking and hard freezing my machine anytime I played a newer ue5 game.
    The solution was to set a value between 300 and 400 amps to the core current limit, adjusting up as I increased the multiplier and slowly pushing my undervolt back up as Jay demonstrated. I don't understand why this has to be so damned complicated OOB and I bet a lot of cpus have been destroyed or RMAd just because of the mixup between the motherboard mfgrs and intel.

    Always entertaining having UA-cam feed me videos about overclocking since I've been under clocking and under volting for almost 2 decades now. Overclock to get an idea of what a system can handle then spending a lot of time dropping voltage, adjusting timing and balancing everything. Would rather have better performance than worse visual stability.

      I'm totally with you there. I underclock and undervolt my multicore CPU's for years now, ,have much much better temps and even score higher in some benchmarks (multicore).
      The way i see it ; if you want THE gaming PC , choose one with with a minimum core layout and push it as much you can to obtain that fps that will make you a smarter person than the rest . If you're into media creation , get the maximum amount of cores and let them run quietly . (i found that out comparing my 965 black with the fx 8350)
      There used to be a saying that if you wanted to keep your car engine in the long run you should try to stay below 2/3th of the max rpm . Because the engine would get hot, use a lot of energy , brake down faster. And you would probably not get to your destination faster...

    These days you are right, it is pretty depressing. These days i find the VRAM and RAM clocks (and RAM timings) are the only bit of tinkering i can do. MCE and the ability to just max the power limit slider on afterburner are the modern day realities of overclocking.

However, the accumulated cooling experience from overclocking definitely helps with keeping the clock/temperature curve in a better range.

    The two best overclocking CPUs that I had were an AMD k6-2 333Mhz where I accepted set the jumpers for 500Mhz, and it ran perfectly stable, so I left it for the whole time that I had I, the other was an original athlon slot A CPU that was a 550Mhz, the motherboard somehow detected it as a 750Mhz, and it ran like that as my home router without even a reboot for like 5+ years. These both had real tangible performance gains from this.

      Ahhh back when you can actually overclock a freaking AMD. Sorry I'm still just so salty about this, and no I don't count fucking PBO dude I'm positive that stupid thing degraded my silicon not only that but I actually stopped fucking with it when I realized I was getting better perfromance off an undervolt anyway.
      Anyone who's got a Zen2 or Zen3 chip just set it to a custom undervolt, I don't even see the point to using PBO and using any kind of overclocking is going to fuck its performance along with the ttemps.

    Nice vid. I'm on a 9900K running all at 5Ghz and stable when rendering scenes or doing other things that actually use all cores. For me it still helps if I do for example Flight Simulator which no matter what CPU you run always limited by the CPU since it's using way too little threads. And if you run for example VR as well you need every frame you can get. And I never could get my CPU to 5Ghz but that was because most guides said you needed to adjust the Load Calibration thing in BIOS and if for me that worked completely contra productive for overclocking.

With this new hardware many games dont even know what to do with all these cores. Sometimes even reducing amount of cores can improve game speed. The kids nowadays even missed out on the best era of games if they dont retro game play.

    I messed with my 5900x quite a bit when I first got it, but at the end of the day I really only changed RAM timings and undervolted it in BIOS, PBO does the rest. It does 4.95 GHz single core across most cores, undervolted, on air. There definitely used to be way more performance gain on the table for those willing to mess around with settings and cooling set-ups. Now all of that is done on the front-end and the parts are sold as different SKUs.

Like even having a DDR5 high speed RAM being stable with the OCP/XMP whatever overclocked RAM running isn't sure. So you may not even get to be running the advertised RAM speeds and meanwhile overclocking on Ryzen is straight up dead. Whaty you CAN do is still some overclocking on like a 13600k it's just it's not gonna be enough to really justify it ultimately.

Like a lot of this cool gimmick stuff was pretty much dead on AMD, they basically just killed everything off for simplistic, Zen-like mindset of pure performance minimalism, just make it work, efficiently and for the best bang for your buck. That's why everyone likes AMD, because it's actually just fantastic performance without the need of stupid gimmicks and it works better than those gimmicks. Like they took out CrossFire before nVidia officially killed off SLI completely, for RDNA they still technically could software Crossfire 5700xt's I found out despite being officially unsupported, other than that Crossfire was already dead while 3090ti SLI shit was still a thing for that very particular type of person.
