You are better off simply running at the default precision boost profile or if you have good enough cooling, using PBO/PBO2. If the cooling system is insufficient, our the environment doesn't allow sufficient heat transfer, then temperatures will not drop.Darkbreeze said:Overclocking on Ryzen is a waste of time anyhow. Throttling the CPU just gives whatever cooling systems are in place a better chance at actually being able to remove the amount of heat being generated in a timely enough manner to prevent buildup and allow temperatures to eventually decrease. Assuming there's sufficient cooling for the heat being produced, or more appropriately there's enough airflow to move the heat away from the system, it will eventually start to cool.

If not, temperatures will continue to rise unabated.

That means there's still heat being introduced into the system that needs to be removed in some way. It's still not producing a zero amount of heat (unless it completely shuts down), just less. Whatever temperature is set as some maximum will be the point where the CPU starts to dial back on its power budget/do less work in order to produce less heat.

A heat source sitting out in the middle of the Sahara desert will take much longer to cool than one placed in a deep freeze. That process takes time, dictated by the steepness of the gradient.

There's a lot of science involved here, but there's essentially a gradient and heat moves from areas of high temperature to areas of lower temperature. Even in the best case scenario, temperature won't just drop immediately. I am just simply using Ryzen controller to limit the CPU temperature to 85 and its not working but i saw it on YouTube videos! People do that and their temperatures are at 80 85 90 whatever they set their limit to and the CPU clock speed or TDP automatically lowers according to the set temp limit!įirst, never trust anything you see on YouTube.
