When your 5800X3D arrives, you should definitely get the Curve Optimizer in the PBO menu. Most people do a -20 to -30 adjustment to help reduce temps, and it works well if you monitor stability.]]> Thu, 05 Feb 2026 12:53:59 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=108789&PID=200881&title=curve-optimizer#200881 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=108789&PID=200880&title=curve-optimizer#200880 Author: esgibbon

Curve Optimizer doesn?™t show up for the 3800X because it?™s a Zen 2 CPU. That?™s not a BIOS bug; it?™s just not supported.

Yes, that?�s normal. Curve Optimizer isn?�t supported on Zen 2 like the 3800X. It should appear with the 5800X3D on that beta BIOS, though options may be limited. Many boards restrict CO ranges on X3D CPUs.

Your 5800X3D should definitely unlock the Curve Optimizer option once installed?

Yes, the Curve Optimizer option depends on the CPU?”your 3800X doesn?™t support it in BIOS, but the 5800X3D should. Once installed, you should see the option under PBO Advanced.]]> Wed, 01 Oct 2025 17:53:50 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=108789&PID=199113&title=curve-optimizer#199113 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=108789&PID=199042&title=curve-optimizer#199042 Author: monnmjas

Great post on the Curve Optimizer! I had similar BIOS issues with my Ryzen CPU, but patience with updates helped.

Yes, your 3800X (Zen2) doesn?�t support Curve Optimizer, that?�s why you don?�t see it; once you install the 5800X3D (Zen3) the option should appear in BIOS, since CO is supported on that CPU.

The Curve Optimizer option is not available with your 3800X because it is only supported on Ryzen 5000 series CPUs like the 5800X3D. Once you install the 5800X3D and ensure your BIOS is fully updated, the option should appear, allowing you to undervolt and manage temps.]]> Fri, 27 Jun 2025 14:32:04 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=108789&PID=197900&title=curve-optimizer#197900 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=108789&PID=193574&title=curve-optimizer#193574 Author: hewjazz321
