[ Bios Setting ] Need help in Overclocking 5900x on MSI x570 tomahawk max WiFi

[princeoo7]

got stable system for below as of now on PBO:
PPT: 170W | TDC: 120A | EDC: 130A

I can hit 4.8ghz but if I run CB R23, the max I am able to go is 4.1Ghz on all cores. and the score is 19k to 19.5k at 90c temp.

Those temps are far too high for 4.2GHz @1.2V. Those are very conservative settings. Your performance would be actually lower than stock for multicore and single core. With that AIO you should not be breaking 65c on all core loads considering an ambient of 25c.

At what ambient are you testing and what are your fan/pump speeds? Also you seem to be running a BIOS version which is no longer listed on the support page for that board. Upgrade to the latest beta or downgrade to the last stable version.

Avoid static OC. Instead try the following settings after flashing to a BIOS which uses AGESA 1.2.0.6c or 1.2.0.7
- PBO Advanced
- PBO limits set to manual
- PBO Scalar set to auto
- PPT - 200W, EDC 140A, TDC 140A
- Curve optimizer all core -15
- Disable clock override.

This should get you to all core 4.6GHz. Keep lowering TDC by increments of 5 or 10 as long as performance does not drop. You will also not lose out on the single threaded performance this way. Cinebench R23 scores should be around 22k with this. Some benchmarks like more current and some prefer less. In any case do not increase EDC beyond 140A. Since AGESA 1.2.0.6c, the max voltage that the CPU can request is capped at 1.425V for EDC>140A. Going past this limit might get you better multicore but your max CPU boost clocks will go down for single core.

DO NOT touch LLC or PBO Scalar unless you want to degrade your chip faster. You can use it for benching but it's bad for running 24/7. Some chips are fine with modified LLC/Scalar values whereas some have degraded within a year.

when I limit my max temp limit to 80c the power draw is around 130 watts max for 3.7-3.8ghz. is there a way to limit the max power draw instead of limiting the draw based on temperature?

In PBO limits, PPT (Package power tracking) value is used for limiting max power draw. You can set the preferred value in watts.

if I want to disable PBO then how to add the limit for static oc.

AFAIK you can’t control power or current when using static OC but I have not tried this myself so I’m not sure.
