pancakesyrupyum,

Anyone bother to watch Buildzoid lately to see his take on the new AGESA? I haven’t paid much attention to Zen3 OC since I’m on AM4 still. Does increased DDR5 clocks even matter if the Infinity Fabric still keep it stuck to 6000-6200?

pancakesyrupyum,

I commented this before watching, like an asshole, so of course it’s answered in the video. 6400 1:1 should be possible on many CPUs.
