Just a friendly pointer - everyone who’s using negative curve shaper, start at -15. Many CPUs aren’t stable at -20 or lower, especially if you’re not using really high end motherboards with industry leading power delivery like he is. Also worth while to mention that 6400mts RAM and 2200mhz infinity fabric settings won’t work for everyone, not all of y’all will run at one to one ratio. Also, buildzoid has some good presets for RAM timings that DO work, use those with correct RAM if you can’t get settings in this video to work. Happy OC-ing (Thankfully most of these settings are just set and forget and will work dynamically based on what the CPU can handle)
Yep, I lost a lot of time tonight by starting at -40 and slowly easing by 5. Didn’t land on stable until -15. That’s for sure the negative curve sweet spot for my system.
question: should i get a 6000mhz cl 28 kit, try to overclock it to 6200mhz and if possible tighten the timings even further or should i get a 6400mhz cl30 kit and drop the frequency to 6200mhz?
-40 Curve Optimizer was unstable for me and gave me massive freeze frames in Elden Ring. Now running -35. Great video! love all the info combined with the straight to the point instructions on how to set everything up.
Not really. He is most likely not stable for daily use, and in the end, all core OC still provides the best FPS and 1% lows for gaming. So no need to do all this if you're just a gamer. It is still super cool to see him try the new stuff though.
so now the cool thing now is to direct die cool? I saw derba8ers video where he delidded and hadn't guessed to see the direct die cooling kit. I thought it was pretty awesome! I have been looking into the new noctua d15 g2 lbl model, where their coolers are specifically flatter and better for ryzen, would that be the sort of cooler you run with direct die, or are you aiming for a lapped waterblock?
@@dragonmaster391 You need a custom block and bracket for direct die, as this method of cooling does not use the IHS of the CPU. It's certainly not necessary, as the 9800x3d already runs pretty cool. I'm trying it more as a hobbyist than anything else.
It seems you always get the beyond insane gold sample of each CPU. I have owned 3x Ryzen 7xxx CPU's and now own a 9800X3D, I have never been able to run -40 CO and/or 2200 FCLK on any of them, you seem to be able to do that evey singel sample you overclock.
Very informative, thank you! I am a bit saddened by the fmax limit in PBO being just 200MHz. Would be nicer if you could just tell the darn thing to try to get to 5.7 without having to have the ultra mega gigaboard with an external clock gen.
Surely depends what you're trying to accomplish. I old skool clocked my 5900x and got great benchmark runs... Left it like that for 2 years.... I recently played around with the curve and although it benchmarks worse....it gets better gaming fps, so going to follow this for the 9800x3d I installed today 😮
OMG best OC even dump people would follow along 😅 Thanks SkatterBencher for the best OC video Am going to save it for my future purchase of 9950X3D Hope they're are the same way 😅😊
Awesome video, best OC channel!!! 👏 But what about the good old fashioned way of just increasing frequency offset and voltage? Der8auer got a 5.6ghz all core OC with a few clicks. I was expecting the more complex way of OCing with PBO/curve optimizer to have better results? Is it because of the direct die cooling that Der8auer has stability at 5.6? I’m curious to know what you think 🤔 (I’m planning how I’m going to OC my new build next year hehe)
Hello Man, Amazing work you did! one question. can we use the numbers you give at the end of your tutorial are those safe or do we have to go gradually every step and test the stability being that not all 9800x3Ds are equal? I know is a noob question but overclocking could be such a time consuming process and I would love to shorten the process by following the wonderful work you did!
I wouldn't recommend copying the settings directly, but you can use the guide's process and see what works for your system. I'd do the strategies one be one (since they get more complex every step)
Had to fine tune the +15 to +17 for full stability for the 105.5 ECLK OC. Passes everything. boosting to 5.725. 6400/2200 RAM/FCLK will not be stable for most without tweaking if at at all. 6200 with very tight timings works best for me and outperforms 6400 with the tightest timings I can manage with that. Got FCLK to 2200 but required voltage tweaking 'VDD MISC' and 'SOC' to work. 6200/2066 will be an easier stable target to try first Id recommend. I have a ROG STRIX X670E-F GAMING WIFI so not quite as good a board but similar, its has the ECLK feature obviously.
Fantastic review can't wait to try this CPU, I have one question ..I own Corsair 6000 cl30 I have 7800x3d and Asus x670e-i motherboard, I've seen several of your videos, and I've seen that you use preset RAM profiles in the BIOS, can you tell me if there is a better profile for my RAM that will give some boost? I'm already happy with the performance but if I can get a bit more I would be delighted. Thanks
And now realize that in future all this hassle could be done just by AI training, where the AI itself will periodically check your PC setup for stabilities at any different scenarios, voltages and timings and save all the results to MoBo memory + compare with all-around-world results from others to get more trained and accurate. And do all the overclock for you by itself, just letting you choose from few resulted setups - e. g. a setup for highest power efficiency, a setup for hardcore gaming, a setup for highest clock and so done, always utilizing the maximum stable values telling you how well are your components going in silicon loterry and how big reserves in clock/timings they have.
Nice deep dive. I would love to see you include undervolting and use lower tdp, something in between 7800x3d and 9800x3d stock 115-120 watts for example?!
Why not include any multiplier overclocking since 9800x3d is the first unlocked x3d chip? Derbauer tried and managed to get 5.4 ghz all core easily, I hoped you would mix it with curve optimizer to a greater height but I don't see any mention of it in the video. Open multiplier is the best news because async clock mode and an expensive motherboard that support async clock mode is not needed this time to overclock 9800x3d, is it not?
its amd workaround to get better fps without knowledge of overclocking and proven, once again, working well on their ryzens intel usually just raising mhz and sell it
I have a 3700X and X570 Gigabyte Elite. RAM is incredibly weird on Ryzen, to put it mildly, especially if you have 4 modules or RAM-chips (2*2*8 GB in my case). It can be stable for weeks and then all of the sudden you get a crash. Over time you notice that your POST-time increases with a few seconds and that the CPU-fan ramps up more and longer (because it is slower at checking the RAM). RAM remains a mystery on Ryzen and whatever is going on, that Infinity Fabric makes it a lot more complicated.
Hm, this seems like a great guide. Seems like CO + 200+ Fmax is the way to go on boards without ECLK. Makes me wonder if the Gigabyte X870E Pro Ice i've been looking at has ECLK functionality..
Would be awesome if possible to post a guide for Aorus Master X870E undervolt / overclock as the BIOS is VERY different - especially for the memory part.
idk if you have a Aorus x870e elite wifi 7 by chance but id love to see a step by step to do this setup . its kinda the same theres some things like the ai stuff doesnt show up on my mobo with the newest bios
Very Insightful, I shall have to take it one step at a time to find the limits of my 9800x3d, (silcon lotto) I do have one questions though, you have 6400 Mhz ram, but you down clock it to 6200 MHz and keep the timing. Why? and shoulsd i up the Mhz of my 6kMhz ram to 6200. What is the long term affects of running such a high OC on a CPU?
EXPO-6400 wasn't fully stable with my CPU (I guess it's the memory controller). Instead of not enabling it at all, I can stick with all the EXPO performance settings and just reduce the memory frequency once notch. It's an easy way to keep the timings while not suffering from instability.
I bought Asrock B650M HDV-M.2 and still waiting for 9800X3D to arrive. My board doesn't have external clock gen. Any chance to OC BCLK to 105Mhz like yours? I plan to delid it and running direct die cooling. (I'm new to AMD since my lastest was Phenom II x2 555BE). BTW, any chance for max OC memory gear 1 vs gear 2 e.g. your current 6200 vs 8000+. I have seen X670e gene and HDV easily reach 8400Mhz stable on both 32GB A-die and 48GB M-die.
If you BCLK OC with boards that don't have asynchronous eclk, then you'll likely be limited to 102~103 MHz due to SATA and PCIe. I just got a new EXPO-8000 kit so I'll probably have a look at performance at 8000 the next time I make a guide for Ryzen 9000.
Unlikely, but you can refer to my 7800X3D guide. The process will be quite similar but of course the results will differ th-cam.com/video/90UBUq1mLGY/w-d-xo.html
Question: would it be better to use a DDR5 6000 CL28 kit, overclock it to 6200mhz and try to tighten the timings even further or is it best to get a 6400 CL30 kit and bump it down to 6200 and try and thighten up the timings there?
Can you please do an undervolt of Arrow Lake CPUs, particularly the 285k or 245k, and run them at stock undervolted, undervolted with minor downclock to get max efficiency and undervolt + overclock + tuning and other optimizations?
That's really cool, but for $829 AUD for that cpu, I think I would pass opn such extreme overclocking, as thats pretty expensive to replace because I voided the warranty. The results are quite interesting, but I would stick to a basic OC. I would like to see what you could do with 7200Mhz ram.
Does the Extreme Tweaker\DRAM timing control\memory list have any 2x48GB DR presets at all? Seems like a massive oversight if not, when kits like the Corsair Titanium exist.
My 9800X3D cannot even handle the basic PBO OC.. Starting to worry that there's an issue with the CPU, as when I sent PBO on then my storage device disappears. I'm using a 990 Pro NVME on a ROG Strix x870e Gaming board.
Yes, I include OCCT AVX and SSE stress test results for all strategies + obviously it passes all the benchmarks. You can read more details on my blog skatterbencher.com/2024/11/06/skatterbencher-82-ryzen-7-9800x3d-overclocked-to-5750-mhz/
just tried some overclocking over the weekend it seems like the Asus AI OC actually performed the best on my chip tuned to 111 on the AI optimism scale I was able to get 5.4GHz, 20,000 cinebench r23, 71C with the async eclk and PBO I was able to get 5.4GHz, 19,700 cinebench but 82C also my infinity fabric can't go higher than 2100mhz so my chip might not be that strong also on my corsair 6400 cl32 expo kit I wasn't able to get the timings any better. applying the same settings would BSOD with a mem error
@ hmm thabks for the heads up. I just upgraded to win11 with a fresh install. but apparently HBU said some win11 installs crap out even when fresh. I have no need for win11 so I'll try win10 again and see if it improves
Thank you so much for the guide! Right now I have two sets of RAM and I am wondering which you think would be better for my build with the 9800X3D and ROG X870E Crosshair. One is Corsair Vengeance (Non-RGB) 6400MT/s CL32 and the other is G.Skill 7200MT/s CL34 from my current Intel build. I’m honestly not sure if the G.Skill RAM would be compatible as it is not on the motherboard’s compatible RAM list. Do you think I would get the best performance from A.) using the Corsair kit and copying the memory timing and clock adjustments you made B.) trying to run the G.Skill kit and see the best speed and timings I can get from simple EXPO or C.) copy the memory timings and clock adjustments you made but using the G.Skill kit. I that believe both RAM kits are using SK Hynix A-Dies but not 100% sure.
It's a tough ask to get 6G stable all-core (if we're not just doing single Cinebench runs). I think it probably requires 0C at 1.4V or so ... similar to my 9700X skatterbencher.com/2024/09/11/skatterbencher-80-ryzen-7-9700x-extreme-overclocked-to-6325-mhz/
What idle temps is typical after doing the last OC suggestion? I think my idle went up 10 degrees. Idles around 56-60, then minor load is 60-65. Is that normal and safe?
Is it possible that increasing frequency w/ an OC strategy like this can somehow introduce input latency on the system (even though it's now running higher clock speeds?).
@@SkatterBencher last question if u can help: would this be a good kit F5-8000J3848H16GX2-TZ5RK to test both scenarios? 6200 or 6400:2133 and 8000:2000 or it's not even worth it with the 9800x3d? i have a x870e hero as well

Not very much. The best you can do for gaming is getting ram 6000-6400 and tighten the timings. That has more impact on min and max fps then 200 mhz more on the cores. As with all things am5 and ryzen CPUs, they are pretty much at the limit. Still, why not undervolt your cpu? Less heat, less power and better boosting behavior. Its really easy to do too
I’m currently on 7700X and RTX4080 combo, seriously thinking of getting the 9800X3D.. performance uplift of over 30% on the same GPU? That’s crazy stuff
Hi, so I just went and do the simple OC so PBO2 + Expo, just one question does go from 120 watt PPT to higher use of power right? I hope it won't make it worse for longer use, but I did gain more fps in a bunch of games I noticed.
Do I need a Motherboard such as the 870x hero? Wouldn't something really basic like a Asrock b650m hdv suffice? The b650m probably doesnt support all these really fancy OC features, do they?
As I mention in the video, when testing for CO it's important to check a variety of workloads because the voltage/frequency will be different under the stress load. Typically I check really quickly (like 30-60sec) when increasing the CO and then do longer tests (10min) when validating stability.
Recommending to play a game to verify stability of one component is silly...what if your game crashes cause of your GPU ? Or windows, or ram ... OCCT is still the best way to go to check for errors
My temps hit like 99c sometimes when loading games, in game its stable around 65c is this normal? I came from a 7950x3d and that cpu never got that hot
I tried exact same settings using exact same components but can’t get it to run. The minute I change to asynchronous mode it doesn’t like it above 101? Any suggestions??
Just a friendly pointer - everyone who’s using negative curve shaper, start at -15. Many CPUs aren’t stable at -20 or lower, especially if you’re not using really high end motherboards with industry leading power delivery like he is.

Yep, I lost a lot of time tonight by starting at -40 and slowly easing by 5. Didn’t land on stable until -15. That’s for sure the negative curve sweet spot for my system.
my 7800X3D is fine at -25, regularly seeing 4900 to 5050 during gaming
will see later when my 9800X3D today arrives
question: should i get a 6000mhz cl 28 kit, try to overclock it to 6200mhz and if possible tighten the timings even further or should i get a 6400mhz cl30 kit and drop the frequency to 6200mhz?

I just got a new EXPO-8000 kit so I'll probably have a look at performance at 8000 the next time I make a guide for Ryzen 9000.
Very good guide, just discover your channel!
Can you do a undervolt & overclock guide with a 5700X3D?
go with 5800x3d guide this give you idea how to approach it
Will you be doing a video for the 7600X3D? If not, any older one I can refer to?
Unlikely, but you can refer to my 7800X3D guide. The process will be quite similar but of course the results will differ th-cam.com/video/90UBUq1mLGY/w-d-xo.html
Question: would it be better to use a DDR5 6000 CL28 kit, overclock it to 6200mhz and try to tighten the timings even further or is it best to get a 6400 CL30 kit and bump it down to 6200 and try and thighten up the timings there?
6000 kit will be cheaper, so I'd go for that
its around the same price, i would like to know which option is better!
Great vid. Learned a lot. Thanks.
Can you please do an undervolt of Arrow Lake CPUs, particularly the 285k or 245k, and run them at stock undervolted, undervolted with minor downclock to get max efficiency and undervolt + overclock + tuning and other optimizations?
Who cares about Intel ultra slow?
I am working on an OC guide which will include undervolting but not so sure about including "max efficiency"
@@SkatterBencher Sure, undervolt at stock or slightly below stock speeds is also great.
dam all 8 cores +550mhz is huge
What kind of gaming advantages do these oc strategies offer?
On this day I learned how to OC
That's really cool, but for $829 AUD for that cpu, I think I would pass opn such extreme overclocking, as thats pretty expensive to replace because I voided the warranty.
The results are quite interesting, but I would stick to a basic OC.
I would like to see what you could do with 7200Mhz ram.
Does the Extreme Tweaker\DRAM timing control\memory list have any 2x48GB DR presets at all? Seems like a massive oversight if not, when kits like the Corsair Titanium exist.
I ended up getting the 650e taichi lite hopefully itll be good
I wish there was a productivity chip with bigger better L1 and L2
Wow even I understand now how to deal with the newest and bestest gaming CPU ever.
Problem is...I dont own one (yet) 😄
When is 5 minute guide coming? Well done!
December 11
My 9800X3D cannot even handle the basic PBO OC.. Starting to worry that there's an issue with the CPU, as when I sent PBO on then my storage device disappears. I'm using a 990 Pro NVME on a ROG Strix x870e Gaming board.
Is this OC safe to run on a daily basis?
I am unable to find the ECLK setting on my X870E AORUS PRO, is anyone able to find a workaround for this?
Were these overclocks tested for errors and overall stability?
Yes, I include OCCT AVX and SSE stress test results for all strategies + obviously it passes all the benchmarks. You can read more details on my blog skatterbencher.com/2024/11/06/skatterbencher-82-ryzen-7-9800x3d-overclocked-to-5750-mhz/
just tried some overclocking over the weekend
it seems like the Asus AI OC actually performed the best on my chip
tuned to 111 on the AI optimism scale
I was able to get 5.4GHz, 20,000 cinebench r23, 71C
with the async eclk and PBO I was able to get 5.4GHz, 19,700 cinebench but 82C
also my infinity fabric can't go higher than 2100mhz so my chip might not be that strong
also on my corsair 6400 cl32 expo kit I wasn't able to get the timings any better. applying the same settings would BSOD with a mem error
That score isn’t normal. You should get 23500-24000 around 5.4G.
@ hmm thabks for the heads up.
I just upgraded to win11 with a fresh install. but apparently HBU said some win11 installs crap out even when fresh.
I have no need for win11 so I'll try win10 again and see if it improves
Thank you so much for the guide! Right now I have two sets of RAM and I am wondering which you think would be better for my build with the 9800X3D and ROG X870E Crosshair. One is Corsair Vengeance (Non-RGB) 6400MT/s CL32 and the other is G.Skill 7200MT/s CL34 from my current Intel build. I’m honestly not sure if the G.Skill RAM would be compatible as it is not on the motherboard’s compatible RAM list. Do you think I would get the best performance from A.) using the Corsair kit and copying the memory timing and clock adjustments you made B.) trying to run the G.Skill kit and see the best speed and timings I can get from simple EXPO or C.) copy the memory timings and clock adjustments you made but using the G.Skill kit. I that believe both RAM kits are using SK Hynix A-Dies but not 100% sure.
@SkatterBencher
Tuning the 6400 kit will probably be more straight-forward than the 7200 kit
@@SkatterBencherthank you so much!
Can you do a video without eBCLK, not many boards have that and there are none in smaller form factors.
- Did you do it?
- Yes.
- What did it cost?
if i use a chiller and delid do you think it can go 6g all core?
It's a tough ask to get 6G stable all-core (if we're not just doing single Cinebench runs). I think it probably requires 0C at 1.4V or so ... similar to my 9700X skatterbencher.com/2024/09/11/skatterbencher-80-ryzen-7-9700x-extreme-overclocked-to-6325-mhz/
My PC doesnt boot when I change eclk :(
What idle temps is typical after doing the last OC suggestion? I think my idle went up 10 degrees. Idles around 56-60, then minor load is 60-65. Is that normal and safe?
Hi i am getting Asus 650E F Board strix , Hope it can do similar results.
Is it possible that increasing frequency w/ an OC strategy like this can somehow introduce input latency on the system (even though it's now running higher clock speeds?).
Any noticeable improvements in gaming workloads?
Just like other Ryzen 9000 CPUs - I see little gains in games from overclocking
hello. great video. what is your g skill ram kit? the one in the link goes to a 48gb kit.
I have some early production model of this F5-6400J3239G16GX2-TZ5NR.
Thanks for the heads up, I updated the link in the description too
@@SkatterBencher ty mate
@@SkatterBencher last question if u can help: would this be a good kit F5-8000J3848H16GX2-TZ5RK to test both scenarios? 6200 or 6400:2133 and 8000:2000 or it's not even worth it with the 9800x3d? i have a x870e hero as well
Best OC channel. What would you recommend for this ryzen DDR5 6000 or 6400?
depends on the cl
@@iikatinggangsengii2471 28 on 6000 and 30 on 6400
I have a 6000 kit that runs 6400 cl 30 and its better ofc. Lower latency. At the same time, if you do 6000 cl28 there is almost no difference
8000mhz is the best so you can match UCLK and FCLK
Whatever works with 1:1 UCLK (6400 might be a little tricky), then just optimize the sub-timings a bit.
Hey, how's it going? I've got a few questions about the 14700k and 14900k processor undervolt. How to do it right and easy
Hey! All good here! I have guides up with the 14700K and 14900K already:
14700K th-cam.com/video/1kQ8waHIjAw/w-d-xo.html
14900K th-cam.com/video/Ww_BJhz_w98/w-d-xo.html
If you ran 8000 memory in gear 2 would it leave more headroom to overclock the CPU?
Getting 90+ degrees running Cinebinch R24 with these settings. I used -15 to be "safe". Still 90 degrees with -20
If you want lower temperatures, there's a Precision Boost option to limit the maximum boost temp.
@@SkatterBencher I went out and bought a brand new Corsair AIO and the temps went down maybe 2 degrees. Max of 89 using Cinebench R24.
Could someone sum this video up?? i have 9800x3d and same Mobo he's using in the video, ram is Hynix Gskill Royal 6000mhz CL28
My question is, is it worth any of these overclocking methods for gaming?
Not very much. The best you can do for gaming is getting ram 6000-6400 and tighten the timings. That has more impact on min and max fps then 200 mhz more on the cores.
As with all things am5 and ryzen CPUs, they are pretty much at the limit. Still, why not undervolt your cpu? Less heat, less power and better boosting behavior. Its really easy to do too
@@TehShiaT11einself Thanks for the advice man, I'm going to undervolt it, less heat is always welcome!
Yo could you do some gaming benchmarks with this setup?
best he can do is OC the iGPU in 9800x3d
I’m currently on 7700X and RTX4080 combo, seriously thinking of getting the 9800X3D.. performance uplift of over 30% on the same GPU? That’s crazy stuff
Just went from a 7800x3D to 9800x3d and did achieve more fps and better 1% lows, highly recommend for you too. Playing 1440p 360hz OLED panel
When enabling timings for the memory you say select 6200 2x16. If I have 2 x 32 do I select still the 2x16??
Hi, so I just went and do the simple OC so PBO2 + Expo, just one question does go from 120 watt PPT to higher use of power right? I hope it won't make it worse for longer use, but I did gain more fps in a bunch of games I noticed.
Yes, when enabling PBO you'll use more power. I find that at worst the power is 160W, so it's still very reasonable.
I have a 2x32Gb 6000mhz memory how i have to tweak that memory??
Its a shame they didnt unlock the pbo boost clock override, id imagine a lot of these can easily do 5.4ghz+ with PBO.
Do I need a Motherboard such as the 870x hero? Wouldn't something really basic like a Asrock b650m hdv suffice?
The b650m probably doesnt support all these really fancy OC features, do they?
All boards, including B650, should support every OC strategy except for the last one with asynchronous eclk.
Hi, great vid. For how long should I run occt cpu tests to check for any instabilities with a CO on my 9700X? Cheers.
As I mention in the video, when testing for CO it's important to check a variety of workloads because the voltage/frequency will be different under the stress load. Typically I check really quickly (like 30-60sec) when increasing the CO and then do longer tests (10min) when validating stability.
Inbuildt tests arent good enough for playing Pubg. Play Pubg on big maps for 3 hours, no crashes -> perfect stability.
Recommending to play a game to verify stability of one component is silly...what if your game crashes cause of your GPU ? Or windows, or ram ...
OCCT is still the best way to go to check for errors
What should I do with the settings for 6000 MHz memory?
也太快就有東西啦~😍😍
My temps hit like 99c sometimes when loading games, in game its stable around 65c is this normal? I came from a 7950x3d and that cpu never got that hot
99C sounds very high, especially given TjMax is 95C. Is that with PB enabled?
@SkatterBencher I will do some more testing after I repaste tonight. No over-clock has been set yet. I will back with you. Thanks for the response
Ohh if only my clear cmos button works when i need it!! 😂
Big request. Could you overclock the i7 14700k again after changing the bios?
Ahh, I don't have enough time unfortunately
Will you ever be doing on these for Threadripper cpus?
Or just too expensive for you to do?
I mean 7000 & later 9,000
I've got several Threadripper guides up. Here's the playlist th-cam.com/video/KNKdZ5WxXYw/w-d-xo.html
Would be cool if you look into Direct Die-cooling on this cpu.
I tried exact same settings using exact same components but can’t get it to run. The minute I change to asynchronous mode it doesn’t like it above 101? Any suggestions??
Are you changing the correct eclk in asynchronous mode? What is the behavior - just not booting up?
Is there any difference in gaming ?
