Super Tuned AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT vs. Intel i5-10600K: RAM Timings & Infinity Fabric Overclocks

We overclocked the AMD R5 3600XT CPU to 4.6GHz all-core and tuned the memory timings and RAM frequency, + overclocking on the Infinity Fabric vs. similarly tuned i5-10600K.

This video includes AMD Ryzen memory overclocking and timing tuning, but done all manually and without Ryzen DRAM Calculator. Each timing was tested manually throughout the process, and that's a process we partially showed in our recent AMD Ryzen Overclocking stream (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNkQ87J6g9M). We mostly tuned primary and secondary timings for this one, with some memory frequency and infinity fabric overclocking thrown into the mix. All-core was also overclocked to the max that a normal (Kraken X62 280mm CLC) cooling solution would allow. This does not use the crazy bench we built for the livestream, but rather our standardized CPU review bench system (except with the RAM swapped). The AMD Ryzen 5 3600 XT vs. Intel i5-10600K tune is our primary focus, with additional focus on the best way to overclock AMD Ryzen CPUs in general (not all-core, in other words).

We're not overclocking experts in general, but have a lot of experience with liquid nitrogen overclocking and water cooled overclocking. We'd place ourselves at about an intermediate level, with lots of people above us in expertise (Der8auer, Buildzoid, and Bearded Hardware all as noteworthy). That said, we're good enough to get a heavy uplift in performance with memory overclocking, all-core OC, and IF OC on AMD Ryzen CPUs. Just trying to set expectations for skill level. We'd say we're ahead of the average reviewer and below the average XOCer.
