AMD Ryzen 9000X3D series rumored to fully support overclocking, Zen5 gets improved DDR5 memory support - VideoCardz.com

Rumor: AMD Ryzen 9000X3D with full OC support Wccftech sources reveal important change to the upcoming X3D lineup. As we approach the launch of the Ryzen 9000 series, information on Zen5 desktop CPUs becomes increasingly detailed. According to the report, the upcoming generation of the X3D...

Great if true. I couldn't support prior X3D chips because it didn't support manual overclocking, something which I get enjoyment out of and have done with every CPU I've had.

Hopefully the OC safeguards aren't too limiting.

I wonder how much overclocking would even help with X3D though...

We could already overclock with the 5800X3D and 7800X3D, through BCLK overlock.
It's a limited process but i can be done. In fact, I've done a bit of that.



But I guess that what AMD is implying is that these new X3D parts will have an unlocked multiplier.

That's awesome to see. If we get a level of PC like how I've had with some past Intel parts, we are in for a treat.

Even more stunning to see the TC make the thread.

I am blown.

Blown away I tell you.

Blowowowowowowowowown!

The more time passes, the more useless overclocking becomes. I used to overclock all my parts that could be overclocked 10 years ago (memory, CPU, and GPU) but haven’t done it in years. The gains have become insignificant as most parts have great clocks out of the box. Only thing I tweak are memory timings.

 

[Spukc]

Is this the tread where we talk about dr disrespect? Or is this really about new gpu’s?

BCLK overclocking sucks donky nuts, only people buying non multiplier unlocked CPUs use that mess.

It can still be worthwhile on mid-range Intel CPUs like 13600K/14600K. I agree though, these days I'm more into memory tuning.

Technically enabling XMP profiles is overclocking. But most components do auto overclock.

Meh, I’m more interested in undervolting and lowering heat than overclocking these days.

 

[b0uncyfr0]

Undervolting is the way - but i like to do both if possible.

Its a brave new world!

I haven't OC'd anything in my PC in over a decade. It was fun when I was young and trying to squeeze every bit of juice out of cheap stuff I bought. These days I just want to play games, not hardware tweaking.

Kinda useless on amd cpu, using multipliers OC will cap your max turbo clocks

 

[Denton]

Overclocking was great when it was possible to go from Celeron 300 to Celeron 450, or from Athlon 64 1.8ghz to 2.8ghz.

These days though? Kinda useless for anything other than benchmarking and epeening.

Or like what I did on my i7 930 2,8Ghz -> 4,0Ghz.

Money is one of the best tools to overlock your machine
