If you want to save the limits in the task scheduler just type those values after your core clock offset values. Lowering the limits let me keep same performance but reduced cpu temp by 20 C

1 year later and cpu has been performing the same as day 1 with the same temps, just coming back to say how gratefull I am for this vid, helped me out so much

Great tutorial, thanks! Improved my multithreaded Cinebench R23 score by over 700 points. All cores boost to max now on my 5800X3D.

Hey man! I just want to thank you, I was searching for this for a long time! Your tutorial is the best and very easy to apply! Thanks again!

-30 offset on all cores 132W 85A 130A configuration has maximized my effective clock speeds while reducing temps by over 20 degrees celcius. Was hitting around 83c in far cry 5, now im at a very comfortable 62c after a long gaming session. Ive combined this with Fan Control to make the most out of my case fans and it has done wonders for my system. Thank you very much for your explanation and help Edit: 127W 80A 125A -30 all cores, stable for 2months now

Thanks for the straight up easy to follow guidelines. Worked perfectly right away. My mobo doesn't have curve optimizer or pbo. This worked a charm!

A month ago I did this and set all core to -30. Did many stress tests and games and never had crashing. Saw a nice boost in clocks it’s now at 4.45ghz stable even sometimes when all cores are being used. It’s higher then the clocks I was able to squeeze out manually from my previous 5600x. And my temps are looking juicy. Usually never goes above 75c in games.

Deserved like, another video or two did the same thing but missed two key points and this video addressed both and allowed my system to run the task scheduler as needed. Thank you

Thanks so much for this tutorial, went from 80-90 degrees to 60s under full load. Amazing.

Thanks for such a clear guide, worked perfectly.

So happy I stumbled onto this video. Thanks for making it man.

-25 working well for me, thanks for the quick and easy guide.

Thanks a lot, I had an 240mm AIO for my 5800X3D and I didn't see a lot of improvement compared to my tiny aircooler it was still reaching 50-60 degrees idle now it's at a happy 35-40

Your settings worked perfect for me, thanks

Thank you So much! for the indepth tutorial, was able to get my hands on -30 x8 and PPT 100W TDC for 70A EDC 100 temps 62 top on OCCT with 360mm AIO constant 4500MHZ, so much cooler and so much preformance gain thanks for the task setup i had trouble with that!.

The 5800X3d is a good binned part because of its Voltage limitation due to its V-Cache , most 5800X3D will work with - 30 which is already the maximum , higher Numbers have no effect at the Curve Optimiser , i would choose this as the starting point and only if there are Problems i would reduce the value , my 5800X3D works since months without issues at -30

I feel blessed that my MB bios lets me set my PBO2 curve so I don't have to jump through the task scheduler hoop. This video did help me tune my curve better tho and thank you.

Geez thanks man! I just installed my 5800X3D today and the spikes from 46 - 72 are crazy and almost instant just on processes like opening chrome!

works for my 5800x3d, from 49c idle to 37c!!! Thanks a lot bro. Cheers. and i even applied a custom alert for every time PBO2 values have been applied.

Awesome video! really glad you included how to edit after the task is created makes it easy to use for beginners. Went from 80+c to 75c in r23 while boosting to 4.45G all cores most demanding games (hell divers 2 was making my ac work overtime:) dropped 10/15c to around 60c with setting at -30 -30 -30 -30 -30 -30 -30 -30 120 75 110 0. Best way to tame the spicy 5800x3d if your MB is locked curve like my ASRock x570. Air cooled with Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE in a Fractal Torrent case all fans now running at 25% instead of 50 to 60%.

Thanks for this! Im not completely clear how the curve offset values work, havent messed with OCing much at all really in over a decade, but was able to get my 5800x3d set to -30 on all cores wirh 120W/75A/110A, simply matching your settings on limits, but it ran the OCCT stability test for about 7 minutes before i stopped it, seems pretty solid!

My 5800x3d managed -30 for all cores. Seems stable after an hour of OCCT CPU testing and several hours of gaming. Thanks for the video!

Tip for 5800X3D owners, if you're still getting toasty temps, you can combine an offset in the BIOS (offset of the VCORE, so FE -50mvtt) with PBO. Seeing as the absolute clockfrequency isn't very high, -30 usually isn't enough to drop the temps. So I use a -50mvtt offset, then set -15 PBO2. Dropped temps from 75 to 65 and im hitting the same 4450mhz.

Thanks for the video bro 🔥🔥✌️

Great video my man!

Awe-freaking-some. Thank you!

Thank you sir, I bought this chip for better performance in dcs vs a 5600x . Initialy I was not impressed but with tweaking I got around 25 fps uplift.

This is GOLD, as well as the fixed comment!

using at -30 with my 5800x3d for 6 months, and never had any issue, the temps never go above 64c in games with arctic air cooler! its just a must to do for this cpu. (my rx 6800 is stuck on 99% usage in every game)

Thanks, simple and fast, perfect.

this video is exactly what i was looking for

This seems like a great tool to test find your stable values....instead of having to run this task scheduler seems easier just to adjust your bios after you find your stable values.

I'm amazed man. -25 all core, set PPT 135, TDC 90, EDC 135 and now I'm maxing out at 75c (on air cooling) and boosting to the 4550 100% of the time when stress testing.

thank you man for the video, followed step by step and now my 5800x3d performs really well on both 4k and 2k without surpassing the 70 celsius on many games, average 63 degrees celsius, before this the average was 72. thank u

I appreciate it man this software is a lifesaver

thx! i have -30 all cores and running 65ºC max with NH-D15!

Can be done, no problem -30 everything went perfectly... thanks saved !

This did absolute wonders for me. I got it all the way to -30 stable, so i guess I got a good bin. I'm sitting at 4.4ghz 80c at 80 watts. I know that the temps are still a bit high. I'm still using my hyper 212. I know I need to get a better cooler. I wasn't thermal throttling before, but I didn't like it sitting at 90c constantly. Edit: I actually changed my best, and 2nd best cores to -25 -27 to get better performance.

Thank u sooo much i have temp like 90-92 on normal playing now i have only 76 max

nice job man

Great video!!!

yeah 500th abo i was :) :D nice vid.

Thank you! Literally minus 20 degrees via 15 minutes of tweaking. Works better than a water cooling chain :D

Is it possible to have the limits change at startup as well? It seems i can keep the curve offset automatically with the steps in this tutorial but id have to manually reapply the limits.

hmm my 5800x3D has never gone above like 70C in any stress test, infact I had thought this entire time it was one of the coolest chips I have ever owned but I am trying this currently to see what I get out of it. Thanks for the video and I hope I can gain something from it :)

Thank you, good job

Thanks for the guide. My motherboard has PBO2 option, do I use this method to find out the numbers and then plug them in on bios instead of applying a scheduler?

AMITool (if you can get a hold of it) can be used to write the offset values to bios on ANY AM4 board.

One thing I think you forgot to mention is when using manual PBO offset, just like with ryzen master on the 5000/7000 series, is you need to validate clocks using HWInfo or even OCCT to check “effective clocks” match your shown clock speeds. Too extreme of a undervolt with CO, will result in some or all cores not actually running at the clocks it thinks it is. OCCT and HWINFO have this reporting tool for this very reason. This is important because while the system may be stable, you’re losing performance potentially in cores that need more voltage to actually properly boost under load. It’s extremely rare that all core -25 or -30 is actually stable in the case, usually you see your best performing cores wanting more voltage to actually boost high enough in low core utilization scenarios.

Very effective Thank you. I guess im lucky, -30 all cores, -20 all limits. 4.45 all cores. 73watts. 58degrees (360 aio) and stable.

dang man, thanks alot!

Thank you

Great vid

How do you add the limits into the arguments? This only sets the offsets if you boot it up, right? It's not explained in the written format either.

ty for the guide

Thanks for the help. I ended up doing your settings and things worked great. Then searched more info about how to set limits to scheduler and found out even better settings in overclock forums with lower temps with the same performance. Just replace values “-30 -30 -30 -30 -30 -30 -30 -30 95 60 90 0”. It just adds 95W PPT, 60A TDC, 90A EDC. Worked like a charm!

Thanks for this video, my 5800x3D run better now (-10°)

Its not changing any settings for me? OCCT isnt showing any changes when i input numbers in PB02

I did the following in bios for my Ryzen7 5800X3D: -30mv all core, PPT88, TDC61, EDC90. In Cinebench i get 15088pts, max temp: 78-80, power consumption 103W, all core boost 4447MHz. Before when the power setting was managed by auto i was getting 15180pts with 90°C and 126W, all core boost 4444MHz.

Just wanted to mention a lot of motherboards do actually support pbo2 tuner in bios, but not all of them do. You will have to look up your specific motherboard and check to see if it had PBO2 support in bios!

thank u bro

Hey Beefy. Just wondering how much you gained in mw2/wz? My Temps are pretty good with my 360mm aio and hitting 4.3hz. Pretty happy with performance paired with my aorus 3070ti but all way looking for more. I’m not the best with computers but have learned how to oc gpu, ram and my other CPU’s. This looks a bit more tricky for me to achieve but if the gains are decent I will give it a go. Thanks for the upload.

hello man! i just wanted to ask have u experimented with kombo strike 3 and if u got it enabled did u have pbo tuner undervolt also or just one of the 2 ??

Since the values persist after PBO2Tuner closes, is there a way to get PBO2Tuner to close automatically at the end of the startup routine? Thanks.

do i have to put my cpu on default/ take off the undervolt already on my pc for it to work or can i just do it no matter what?

subd thanks, will try this out

With the pbo2 app after testing and everything is stable to keep the cpu at those settings do you just leave the app on and minimize or can you exit and close it ? Thanks for the tutorial!

I ended up doing -30 and 95/80/100. I was wondering about your settings for CPPC, CPPC preferred core and C-state? Mine are on Auto, is that ok ?

Hi need to put by default the curve optimizer in bios before using pbo2 tuner?

Thanks!

Hi, Thank you so much for making an easy to follow tutorial. My apologies if this has been asked many times before, but I just got my 5800X3D and was wondering what's the difference between PBO2 vs manually changing bios setting vs MSI Kombo Strike? and also, which one provides the best performance with the lowest temperature?

Hey, I'm doind step by step to set the PBO2 settings on task scheduler, but it's not being applied, only manually. Do you know what is happening?

You don't need to use PBO2 just go into bios and load a saved bios setting from your a USB drive, when you do the OC and PBO will be available to fiddle with, but only until you boot into windows. Any changes you made will be there

How do you know if the curve you applied is stable?? Sorry I'm really new and clueless to this.

In bios do you set vcore at auto? Or offset?

Hey Beefy. Just wondering if RAM oc is worth doing while running the 5800x3D or is it worth oc RAM with this chip? With my b550 I was only able to get minimal gains. Mind you I only increased frequency and voltage, no subtimings, Corsair Dominator 3200 cl16. Have you tried or had luck oc RAM together with 5800x3D? Cheers mate.

Can you program TTC EDC etc at boot up also, like create a new action where you write -30 instead you write TTC 110 let's say ?

@beefy tech did you change you cppc settings in the bios? And hoe about the global c state?

Isnt it better to do this in the motherboard bios? Isnt it like a more permanent thing than letting the Windows boot and only then it will change the cpu settings?

This stabilized my frames and temps! One doubt tho, I set it scheduled to -30 but when I open it sets automatically to 0, what could be the issue?

how do you check if the task scheduler is done correctly? I've open the PBO2 tuner to see if the offsets was applied but just shows 0 for all values.

Hi. Is there Pbo2 tuner for 7000 series? If not, do we have an alternative software?

our temps are wildly better than mine with a DarckRock Pro 4, where I will hit 90C after about 20 seconds in Cinebench R23. Clocks will be around 4200-4300 throughout a 10-minute run. I will check this out but I doubt I will have the headroom tempswise, maybe? Or maybe that means I really should look into it. I'm completely new to undervolting so I'm just wondering if there is any possibility that one can "lock" their system with an unstable clock, or is it reset every one reebots? Thanks, man.

Start at -30 all-core and use Core Cycler to hammer the CPU with low load/high frequency testing - curve optimizer is most likely to crash at HIGHER frequencies (= LOWER loads). Also, BIOes now allow CO settings on the 5800X3D, so need need to set up a PBO2Tuner scheduler.

Once I download it from the google drive and save to desktop I don't have an option to extract. It's not even showing as a folder for me. any help is appreciated!

Any luck getting your infinity fabric to 2000mhz? I think there needs to be a voltage bump somewhere to stabilize it, and undervolting somewhere else to bring the thermals down.

So when i found my sweetspot is it better to change all that values in the bios or put PBO 2 Tuner into the Sheduler?

Thanks for this very informative video, it was great. However, it does lead me to a question: the curve / -20 settings start on start up, but what about the PPT, TDC, & EDC settings? I don't believe you went over how to do that on start up. Would be great if you could share or let us know whether or not that's possible.

How come my CPU temperatures increase when I set an under volt compared to stock settings?

When running tests without pbo I have higher average mhz but with pbo -20/-25 average is 3850 mhz, -15 average 4000mhz, average mhz is something to take in considerations or i should look for better performance/fps only in lower voltage and temperature?

does it decrease idle speeds ?mine runs at 3.8-4.0 at a light workload

Hello , i did everything like you, my pbo is not starting with windows...and all limits are reseted after i restart pc...can someone help me?

Hi hoping someone still looks at this and can give me advice real quick, before I change anything I want to hear if it's needed because in OCCT my temps are consistent 61C after 10 minutes and 4425Mhz. Should I still do this?

hey guys! I kind of need some help on figuring out why the AIO cooler (240 corsair) stops working randomly for a few secs after undervolting. No crashes, no BSODs, just the fans from the coolers randomly stops while set manually at extreme. Is this considered a system instability? Any ideas? Thanks!

Hey, so I'm running into a really weird issue and I hope you could help me. My 5800x3D won't pull more than 85 Watts running Cinebench and around 95-105 Watts Max in Prime95 (All this is stock). The issue I'm having is that when I use PBO2 Tuner and apply a -10 offset for example, the power draw (And obviously temps) actually go up. Idk what I could be doing wrong? Im using Windows 11, B550 Gigabyte Aorus Elite V1 Motherboard, newest bios as well. Any windows settings I might be missing? Even a clean bios wont change this fact. I'm really lost!

I can't get my task scheduler to run it, when i go to use occt its just stock. then its says one or more of the arguments is wrong if i tried to edit it, please help someone.

My temps in game are amazing after doing -30 and loweder limits. 50-60c in games and boosted my mhz to 4450 maxed when it was sitting around 4250-4350...

Is msi a520m-pro board impossible? Even if I put -30, it is reset when I re-run it

Hey bro ! have a question, I don't need create task if i do the same thing same value ppt ect in my bios right ?

Do you think a 5800x3d will be enough for a 7900xtx on mw2 high refresh rate 1440p? I recently ordered a xtx and I’m not sure if I should stick with am4 or go am5?
