How to Overclock Ryzen - R7-1800x, 1700x & 1700 | Bios Overclocking Guide

How to Overclock your Ryzen CPU from the AM4 AMD platform! If you are a Gamer or a power user then Today we are getting into the AM4 Bios and Starting to manually overclock and tweak our 8 Core AMD Ryzen CPUs. I have here the R7-1800x, though since it is manual mode it will be pretty much the same for the 1700x and also the 1700.

In Part 1 - Easy Mode & Simple 3.8ghz for Everyone (0:16)
I give a quick generic heap of settings that should work for everyone out there, if it doesn't then I think you got very unlucky... :(.

In Part 2 - Hard Mode 4.0ghz+ (7:06)
It gets more in-depth with manual p state overclocking, which will set your CPU to certain levels for 24/7 stability and absolute amazing gaming performance.

Part 3 - Benchmarking Games, accidental 2133mhz vs 2933mhz f1 2016 comparison :) and Final Tips for Overclocking - 12:27

*Also note you may have to up the SoC voltage to level of up to - 1.2v (my R7-1700 retail needed 1.065ish volts to get to 4ghz with memory OCs) depending on your CPU if you are heavily overclocking the memory too.

Values for P State Overclocking -
FID (Clock Speed) 90 - 3600mhz, 91 = 3625, 92 = 3650, 93 = 3675, 94 = 3700, 95 = 3725, 96 = 3750, 97 = 3775, 98 = 3800, 99 = 3825,
9a = 3850, 9b = 3875, 9c = 3900, 9d = 3925, 9e = 3950, 9f = 3975
a0 = 4000, a1 = 4025 (my max sweetspot OC), a2 = 4050, a3 = 4075, a4 = 4100, a5 = 4125, a6 = 4150, a7 = 4175, a8 = 4200 = a9 = 4225, aa = 4250, ab = 4275, ac = 4300, ad = ugh you win the lottery.

Values for DID (Increment adjustment adjuster and or bclk adjustments, not too sure what it does TBH, as I found an overclock that I was already comfortable with and have not spent much time with this yet, though looking at it more closely, here are the values) - 8 = 25 mhz increments, 9 =22.2196, a = 20 b = 18.18, c = 16.667, d (final recommendation) = 15.384mhz - 3943mhz cap).

Values for VID Voltage Control = 30 = 1.25v, 2f = 1.256v, 2e, 1.2562v, 2d = 1.268, 2c = 1.275v, 2b = 1.2812v, 2a = 1.287v, 29 = 1.293v, 28 = 1.3v, 27 = 1.3062v, 26 = 1.3125v, 25 = 1.318v, 24 = 1.325v, 23 = 1.3312v, 22 = 1.3375v, 21 = 1.343v, 20 = 1.35v, 1f = 1.356v, 1e = 1.3625v, 1d = 1.368v, 1c = 1.375v, 1b = 1.3812v, 1a = 1.3875v, 19 = 1.3937v, 18 = 1.4v, 17 = 1.406v, 16 = 1.4125v, 15 = 1.418v, 14 = 1.425v, 13 = 1.4321v, 12 = 1.4375v, 11 = 1.443v, 10 = 1.45v, *next set is from f - a, 9 - 9 (1.45 - 1.55v), though be very careful overclocking in this voltage range*.

Also don't forget to enable your XMP profiles and the possibly just lower them when you are done so you get more performance for gaming (I found about a 6-8% delta from 2133 to 2933 thus far).
