Hexus posted a review on the AMD Ryzen 5 1600X overclocked to 5.9GHz with 6C/12T enabled
A quote from the article:
Breaks four multi-threaded records previously held by the Intel Core i7 5820K. HEXUS published a double review yesterday, featuring the AMD Ryzen 5 1500X and Ryzen 5 1600X (14nm Zen) processors. We looked at the conventional air-cooled overclocking ability of these chips and observed that the limitations of air cooling meant that neither chip could go beyond the 4.0 to 4.2GHz range, providing rather limited OC potential. But what clock speeds and performance could these chips be capable of with 'full pot LN2' cooling, for example?AMD Ryzen 5 1600X overclocked to 5.9GHz with 6C/12T enabled @ Hexus
