Indonesian overclocker Lucky_n00b pushed an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X to 5723 MHz using liquid nitrogen, taking the top spot in the 6-core rankings.
One of Indonesia's leading enthusiasts, Lucky_n00b, has made waves by overclocking and benchmarking the new 6-core, 12-thread AMD Ryzen 5 5600X processor.
Armed with a high-end motherboard, a liquid nitrogen pot, and a highly popular G.SKILL F4-4000C15-8GTRG memory kit, Lucky_n00b managed to push the Ryzen 5 5600X to 5723 MHz and successfully complete a Geekbench3 run with a final score of 46,203 points:
The overclocker's test bench consisted of the following components:
Motherboard: MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk (MS-7C91);
RAM: two 8 GB G.SKILL F4-4000C15-8GTRG sticks;
Graphics card: GeForce GT 1030 (likely from KFA2).
And here is what it looked like:
⤢ ВІДКРИТИThis result, along with other records set using the new Ryzen 5000 processors, will likely be short-lived. Most popular high-end motherboards have not yet received BIOS updates with the microcode to support Zen 3, meaning they cannot host the new chips yet.
We will only be able to draw solid conclusions about the overclocking potential and final performance of AMD's new chips in late January, once vendors release updated BIOS versions for most of their previous-generation flagship motherboards.
