Hey, I was thinking about manually overclocking my cpu and ram,but need advice I'm slightly new to overclocking and it's been ten years since my last gaming pc I just build my new computer
Ryzen 9800x3d
Asus tuf 5080
32 gb g skill royal neo 6000mt
Artic 420mm aio
Msi x870 gaming wifi plus motherboard
Phanteks nv9 case
8x 120mm lian rgb fans
It runs great and 3d mark 4k speed run benchmark I get 9760 score with afterburner over clock +500/+1800 and auto fan curve,which is great too,but i.like to squeeze as much power as I can get ,but if it will be super marginal and the risk to burn out my cpu or gpu is high,especially gpu it's really not worth it. My case seems to be overqualified in cooling if ver seen my gpu get hotter then 68 degrees ever, and cpu even cooler.. will manually changing the overclock settings be a risk on ram cpu if do how much and what parts would be at risk,also it was pretty easy to overclock my gpu but that the most expensive part honestly to take a lost what causes a gpu or any part to break is soley temp because if so I feel like I have no worries with how cold my computer stays and using temp monitoring…Also is it safe to run my overclock on gpu with automatic fan curve or use a custom one from youtube and can you undervolt and overclock gpu at same time together is it safe? Sorry for bombarding with questions,but I know this is this place for the hardcore enthusiasts and always ready to soak up knowledge,my pc build has made my old ass excited/obsessed like a kid again before work after work benchmarking the peformance over console less restrictions it's great anyways thanks for the help sorry for bad puncuation/grammar in a rush….

Everything is safe if you do it *Correctly* in theory. Ur cooling isn’t that good, hotspot temps and vram temps matter more than overall die temp. I don’t think the 5080 has a hotspot temp sensor tho.
Modern hardwares benefit the most from undervolting. Undervolting the cpu and gpu will give you the same or oc performance, with much less power and hence cooler temps. Yes you can undervolt and overclock at the same time.
Tweak the curve offset in your bios to undervolt the cpu and tweak the voltage curve in msi afterburner to undervolt the gpu. For ram, enabling the xmp profile is good enough, if you don’t want too much hassle.
What’s the case?
