so today we're going to be overclocking Rison 3 and it's going to be a very basic tutorial today we're we're just going into the bus and changing only a few settings around to extract a lot more performance out of our rising three CPUs especially the 1200 if you recently purchased it now if you do want to go more advanced and overclock to higher levels and you have a better cooling solution then I will put my X 370 and 8 core rising overclocking tutorial in the description below however today we're going to be taking things real slow kind of like that first date with your foot anyway you're going to need two programs I recommend Cinebench r15 and also I 264 now put the links in the description for both these programs and I want you to install them and then you are now ready and we can move on and get started with this tutorial you're welcome back to check yes city and now on the desktop we've downloaded those two programs out of 64 and also Cinebench r15 now before we do anything I want you guys to open up out of 64 and now you don't have to buy a license key you'll probably get a trial version but that's okay with the trial version we can go to tools and then click on system stability test and you should be able to hit the start button and once you do that I want you guys to leave this running for 10 minutes and now the whole purpose for doing this is actually twofold the first reason being we want to establish a baseline for temperatures so after we start overclocking if our temperatures are going too high then we know that we're doing something wrong secondly we also want to make sure that there's no problems with our computer before we start overclocking because after we lock in some settings if we having problems that are already there before we started overclocking then that will just add a lot of headaches and frustration which we don't need so let this run for 10 minutes you can also click on the CPU ID button and that will bring up the speeds for your CPU you can see here we've got 3.1 gigahertz or 3094 megahertz here which is the base speed of a Rison 3 1200 you will also notice that the memory speeds are displayed here and we've got ddr4 21 33 megahertz which will be overclocking in the second half of this tutorial but let's run this for 10 minutes and we'll come back and after we've hit the f2 or the Delete key or you can hit both of them at the same time I actually prefer to span both these keys until I'm into the bus we then get to the menu here and this is the asrock bias now different biases will have different interfaces that look a little bit different I know for example on gigabytes motherboard you have to hit the f6 or f7 key to get into advanced mode which is where I recommend and then once you're in this fast you can hit the left and right arrow keys on your keyboard and go over to overclock Tweaker and now you should see some settings here with the CPU frequency and voltage change so basically in this tab I want you guys to hit enter and then click manual so we hit the down arrow go to manual and then we'll bring up the CPU frequency and now we want to dial this in a 3,800 that's what we want to press and then press ENTER and now we should have 3.8 gigahertz dialed in to our CPU now of course you can go higher but this is a level that I believe practically everyone should be able to obtain for instance I was able to get four gigahertz on this CPU on this particular CPU but I did have to ramp up the voltage quite considerably now we go down to this next tab CPU voltage so we hit the down arrow we go down here and we type in one decimal three point nine I believe that's about where you'd top out at I believe if you if a computer doesn't boot at this voltage with this speed then I'd imagine you are very lucky and you may want to go here and change it to three thousand seven hundred at which point it should be guaranteed to work however three thousand eight hundred not on the voltage sorry that was a mistake three point eight gigahertz at one point two nine volt should be absolutely fine however keep in mind though on your keyboard you do have the plus and minus arrows which you can also use if the numbers are not working themselves so you can actually manually change up and down the voltage with the arrow the plus or minus keys on your keyboard so they're the first two settings we're going to lock in and usually in a different BIOS and practically every bias that I know on the AMD rise in architecture you can go down and go to save user defaults and this is saving a profile so we can work on this if we have any problems so we're going to do is go to enter and type in three thousand eight hundred megahertz overclock and this will be our overclocked profile we've then saved it and now after you've done this you will actually want to go up here to the top right hand corner to the exit tab with the left and right arrows and then click enter to save changes and exit and click yes so now if all has gone well then you should be on the desktop with a rising three CPU that is now at 3.8 gigahertz keep in mind if you want to apply this tutorial to arise in five six core arise in seven eight core then you may need to increase the voltage and with that you better cooling so just keep in mind that this tutorial today is specifically for a risin three CPU so once we've done that we can open up either 64 again and go to the same menu that we did before so we want to test the temperatures we want to make sure our computer is completely stable and if it's not stable if something's crashed in this test or if something's crashed and you can't even boot to Windows that was just me shutting it down if you shut it down without closing down the program it will bring up that message so don't freak out about that so what we want to do is start and we want to leave that again on for 10 minutes now while this test is running I'll quickly talk about what you can do if your computer is crashing in a dozen boot into Windows and if this is the case you can then take out your little CMOS battery it's a little circular battery on the motherboard and plug all the power off and leave this off for a good minute and then put that battery back in and this will essentially reset the bus there's also a clear CMOS jumper that you can switch the jumper from the left to the right and that should also clear the CMOS as well or if you're lucky enough to have a good enough motherboard it'll have a little clear CMOS button on the back which you just tap this and you're now reset back to default settings so now that we've overclocked to 3.8 gigahertz we can see that the temperatures have gone up to around 56 degrees which is still really good we've still got a lot of headroom for overclocking even further if we wish to and keep in mind this is on the race stealth cooler which is the stock cooler that comes included with the Rison 3 1200 if you have a bigger and better cooler then you should see even lower temperatures though I don't really recommend it on this CPU since it doesn't use up much power to begin with so 56 degrees if you want to take this 23.94 gigahertz you guys can do so in your own spare time however once this overclock is done within click stop and it's pretty much stable at this point it may be unstable if you have a crashing games for example that wasn't there before the overclock then you may have to go back into the boss and just down clock it to 3.7 gigahertz or you may have to give the voltage a little bit more so it's pretty much a direct correlation between speeds and voltages and temperatures when it comes to overclocking so now you can see here I've opened Cinebench up and what we can do is run this vent mark just to make sure that our numbers are 3.8 gigahertz is actually concrete and now beforehand I believe we've got around 470 Cinebench points with the risin 12 out of the box at around 3 point 1 gigahertz after we do this we should be getting well into the 500s I'd say close to 600 and that will give you an idea of how much performance we have gained with such an easy overclock so we've got 564 Center bench points and this is also without any overclocks to the memory as we pointed out before there was 2,000 133 megahertz memory speeds currently on this system and now with Rison you will want to overclock your memory it's very important to get benefits in not just any program in general but also gaming and your frame rates are pretty much directly correlated to your memory speeds on Rison just like they are correlated to your clock speeds so with that said let's move on now to part two of this overclocking tutorial so now we want to go back into the bus and back to overclock Tweaker the same tab where we overclock the CPU as we can see here we've got 3.8 gigahertz and 1.29 voltage roughly on the core volt and then what we want to do is load XMP profile and we can press profile 1 and now what this will do is we'll load up a profile that's automatically stored in your memory to give these settings for the memory to boot up at a guaranteed speed however there is a big problem with Rison and that is a lot of the times the XMP profiles don't properly work with the motherboards and I'm lucky in this case that my Crucial Ballistix memory it works at 3200 megahertz however we don't just do that well there is another very important setting if we're going for high memory speeds with Rison and that is this setting here the system-on-chip voltage now in different motherboards it will behave in different ways but what we wanted to do here is press the plus key and we want to give it a good 100 millivolts sometimes you might want to give it a little bit more but really don't go past 150 millivolts just yet I'd recommend it giving it a solid 100 millivolts which is what we see here 105 millivolts and then we can leave that and try and lock in our X and P profiles and then we quickly go to save and exit and give that a try so now if your computer managed to boot up in the XMP profiles then you don't need to go any further with this overclocking tutorial you now have a cpu running at 3.8 gigahertz and you can also go back in and try and up to 3.9 for gigas that's up to you and you've also got your memory set and you should be having a really good experience now on Rison however this next part is for someone who is having problems with their memory speeds for instance they've tried locking in this XMP profile however your computer is crashing and you've had to go back and clear the CMOS with the battery take it out or do the other two methods that we mentioned before and now you're back to square one you don't know what to do with these memory timings so what we can do is we can try and load up that profile again and it will give us the DRAM frequency and what we want to do is we want to lower it to 2666 now every stick of memory that I've had go through a Rison has been able to be overclocked to 2666 megahertz I haven't had one stick that hasn't gone this high of course I've had sticks that have gone to 29 33 and now this memory goes to 3200 megahertz so your mileage may vary but as with these overclocking tutorials I'm sort of locking in something that is guaranteed and I believe 2666 should be guaranteed so now after we've locked that in so we've changed our memory speed group down clocked it and what we want to do is we want to go to D Ram timing configuration and now in this tab we'll get a lot of different timings which is kind of scary because I have had 20 666 just from the get-go not work so what we want to do is we want to actually change this to 16 this timing here the cast latency change this one to 17 and then go down and change this to 17 and this one also to 17 and this last one here to 40 I found I've never had a problem once I've locked in these timings on any stick of memory that I've put through this system it is important to mention there is another setting as well called the command rate and you can drop that to 2 T if nothing else is working however some biases don't have this option as well which further confuses things but for what it's worth we can try and leave that at 1 T which is best for Rison and performance and now that we've done that we can then go to the Save Changes in exit and then boot back into Windows so we've now loaded back into our desktop and the first thing we can do is yet again go back into I 264 open that up and go to the cpuid tab so tools cpuid and what we should see here is the memory speeds they should be confirmed 26 61 so that's roughly the speeds that we locked in very close and we've also got the timings there as well that we locked in so the last part in this phase is to quickly go to the stability test yet again so tools stability tests and then this time we can uncheck everything else but stress memory so we can do this for roughly again 10 minutes and you should be fine you should know that your computer is completely stable at these settings and now that you've done testing your memory for a good 10 minutes we can then open up Cinebench and then try and run another final Cinebench score as we can see here we scored two points higher so you should get a very slight increase in performance in Cinebench with your memory speeds being now higher but the best benefit will come when you start gaming anyway guys if you enjoyed today's video then be sure to hit that like button and let me know in the comment section below what overclocks you achieved on your rising 3 system or on your actual other system if you don't even have a rising three and you're watching this tutorial I'm hoping you guys got some big games just like I did on the system I used here today of course Rison is a little bit problematic with some of the memory so be sure to be careful with that if you're overclocking and also if you had any troubles or anything that was confusing in today's video then be sure to drop a comment in the comment section below and I'll get back to you as soon as I can or if I don't answer the comments then you can head over to tech city TV slash forum that's our website and there is a lot of guys just like me who will be able to help you easily if I don't get back to you in the comment section anyway guys hope you enjoyed today's video and I'll catch you in another tech video very soon peace out for now bye
