Some time has passed since the release of the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X including our detailed AMD CPU review. In the meantime, AMD has released several AGESA updates and the minor issues have been resolved. Today we have again looked at the exact differences to the AMD Ryzen 7 3800X and will test whether the extra cost is worth it and if you can get the performance of a 3800X out of the 3700X with a few simple tweaks.

Interactive Pin-Mod guide for AMD Athlon XP, T-Bred and Barton CPUs – the wire trick
Who doesn’t know the problem that it’s not possible to increase the FSB in the BIOS, or the increasement doesn’t change the pci/AGP divider correct so that the PC isn’t able to run stable. For these reasons I’ve build the new enhancements of the interactive Pin-Mod guide at OverClocked inside, where it’s now possible to fool the mainboard a 166 MHz or a 200 MHz FSB CPU to allow these FSBs also on mainboards which doesn’t have such FSB selections. … Continue reading Interactive Pin-Mod guide for AMD Athlon XP, T-Bred and Barton CPUs – the wire trick
Also with the Vcore solder guides one cannot go infinitely high
Even with the Vcore solder guides you can not go on indefinitely high! Those who have followed my Lötanleitungen recently will have noticed, I CPU Vcore voltage short (up to the little mistake with the MSI board to 2.97 volts) did not set up too far. It is not only difficult to cool the processor good enough it also comes sometime shortly OVP to the limit of so-called over-voltage protection. I have now figured out ways to deal with the … Continue reading Also with the Vcore solder guides one cannot go infinitely high
Help and handling of the AMD Socket 939 and Socket 754 CPU Pinmod guide
Assistance to the interactive AMD Socket AM2, Socket 939 and S 754 CPU Pinmod guides The introduction … In order to obtain a good CPU overclock result, usually an increase of the Vcore (CPU voltage) is necessary. One should naturally always watch the CPU temperature and improve the cooling if necessary. Since the Vcore cannot be changed however with all Motherboards, or often only very slightly, there’s now the new Pinmod guide for current AMD Socket 939 and Socket 754 … Continue reading Help and handling of the AMD Socket 939 and Socket 754 CPU Pinmod guide
Interactive AMD Athlon 64 CPU Socket AM2 Pinmod guide – the wire trick
Finally, it was possible to find out the appropriate pins for the Socket AM2 processors and the first interactive AMD Athlon 64 Socket AM2 pinmod guide is published on ocinside.de It concerns – as in the previous AMD Socket A, S754 and S939 pin mod guidances – to connect CPU pins with a small wire. Hereby e.g. the CPU voltage can be changed, in order to reach higher overclocking results. In the first version, the interactive pinmod guide offers already … Continue reading Interactive AMD Athlon 64 CPU Socket AM2 Pinmod guide – the wire trick
