I hear you completely. The X370 killer has some 1 star reviews on Newegg noting the inability to OC. The gigabyte x370 K5 looks like a potential replacement candidate. I've had good experience with my Gigabyte RX570 which has OC'd like a dream, for what it's worth.

We're commiserating on our experiences lol. I can try those PState settings you posted over the weekend when I've got some time, but I'm expecting the same issue. I watched the vid the other day and turned off the memory training, and the C6 stuff (per the video guidelines) which didn't work.

the memory training actually helps now

its a slower boot but stabilises ram on cold boots
ive had to start switching it on for my ram settings (3333 cl14 using 3200 cl15 ram)

just remember leave the volts alone on the oc tweaker page (it really mucks things up after setting p state)

or another way is noob-overclocking  just slide up the multi to 37 or 38 and try it with everything on auto (keep an eye on the vcore though as bios's like to run higher volts than we would like to see)

See thats the thing though, is that the only 2 options for OCing are the frequency and voltage. All we can do is manually type in the desired freq. and manually set the voltage. There is no auto option (that I've seen) for voltage, and no multiplier slider for the frequency.

As I said I've already tried booting without xx25 increments. I've tried with both PState and manually changing the Core Multiplier. Both don't work.

I've tried booting with lower frequencies and they don't work.

I was able to boot once each time with my PState OC's, first with an OC of 3825MHz @ 1.35v, and second with an OC of 3600MHz @ 1.35v. 

I instead had it downclocked to 2800MHz @ 1.385v.

The bottom line is, if I change the voltage in any way inside of the BIOS, it will not POST. I'm pretty sure the issues stems from setting static voltage, but without offset we can't nail the issue down.

I do appreciate that you're trying to help though. 

Also Zach, this was the guide I used to Pstate OC, you might find it helpful if you are going to try.
Please come back and post your results if it does work for you.

Thanks

which one of you is using a very early bios ?
thats not going to help either ,try the later ones with agesa 1006 at least

leave the ram set to auto/ 2133 while testing cpu overclocks

by the way i have NEVER used offset volts
ever since early april and bios revision 1.5

nor did i with both msi tomahawk b350's i overclocked with 1600 r5's

but i do know the incremential 25 and 50 mhz are more hassle than round numbers

I'm on whichever version has 1.06 (non a or b). I believe @superannoyed is on 1.06a which doesn't seem any better, hence my reluctance to update. I'll post back the Pstate results this weekend

bios 2.6 agesa 1006
v3.0 agesa 1006a

only way to get 10006b now is 3.20

for your boards

im on taichi 3.1 the one before the jedec 2666 addition

(our bios numbering seems the same for each addition)

to be honest here with you guys

the early bios were overall very very immature

esp regarding stability (mainly caused by ram)

im here daily and dont mind trying to suggest methods to help you guys iron out the wrinkles


edit
jz still has bios version v3.11 for downloads
