I overclocked a threadripper 3950x on a Gigabyte card and never encountered any problems in the various stress tests I ran. That machine convinced me that AMD's presently marketed consumer CPUs are superior to Intel's offerings, dollar for dollar. (I also benchmarked a comparable Intel chip. Both machines were cooled with a Corsair H100, ie liquid pumped through a radiator.)
