Ryzen 7 9850X3D PBO + Curve Shaper Results — Thoughts?

By 1 Min Read

Hey all,
Just wanted to share my latest benchmark results for the Ryzen 7 9850X3D after dialing in PBO + Curve Optimizer + Curve Shaper, and get some feedback from the overclocking crowd.

⚙️ PBO Settings

  • PBO: Advanced
  • PPT: 162 W
  • TDC: 120 A
  • EDC: 180 A
  • Curve Optimizer: -20 (all-core)
  • Scalar: Auto
  • Max Boost Override: Disabled

🌡️ Curve Shaper

  • Medium Temps: -15
  • High Temps: -10
  • Max Temps: -5

Note: I know some people have mentioned checking for clock stretching, but I’m not using any boost override and I’m still seeing some variance between effective clocks vs reported clocks.

Stability testing:
OCCT / gaming sessions

What do you guys think of these results?
I saw an improvement compared to the typical +200 MHz/10x. Any recommendations for refining CO per-core or adjusting Curve Shaper deltas for better efficiency/boost behavior? Always interested in how other 9850X3D chips scale with similar limits and tuning strategies.
