AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT CPU Review

Overclocking

Temperatures were solid at just 66c at full load. Plus taking that to a locked 4.5 GHz only saw that increase to 67. However, that’s where things get complicated because I think it was a complete waste of time overclocking this CPU. It’s clear that there is a SMALL improvement, but it really wasn’t worth it. AMD has done amazing work with their boost tech and it shows that the CPU was already giving us everything it had right out of the box. Overclocking on most consumer CPUs is pointless on modern CPUs, as we’ve said for quite some time now.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
