MSI MEG Z590 ACE review - Overclocking

Overclocking on air

As always we tried to overclock the processor. It certainly is doable but proper liquid cooling is a must with this processor series. We got the processor stable at 5200 MHz all-core. 5300 MHz would boot fine, however created too many stability issues. At that point, we'd pass 1.5 Volts on the CPU. The heat production is considerable. Realistically I'd say, leave tweaking for what it is as the defaults of these processors are already really close towards these performance regions. 

Above: 5100 MHz all core yields 380W power consumption (system / GPU inactive)

Above: 5200 MHz all core yields 410W power consumption (system / GPU inactive)

Above: 5300 MHz boots fine, but under load is unstable - we did not want to push voltage any higher.
