currently perfect at 1.3750v


Lucky you. I had my 1600x pinned to 1.52V to get a 4.1Ghz OC stable

Any plans for RAM tweaking?


Got it too 4.1ghz at 1.3750v

DemonYouth wrote I wasn't really making a comparison I was just generalizing that a decent temp on any cpu under load is below 75 that was all.

That's not necessarily true though, some old CPUs have max temperatures below 75c. It depends entirely on the architecture. Anything under 75c for a modern CPU is fine though. Intel CPUs have a TJ Maxx of 105c(and have for a while), Ryzen is 95c.

OP - Playing Forza isn't a good way to benchmark and test your CPU overclock. You want to find max temp and test for stability, so I'd recommend running Cinebench and something like Universe Sandbox 2 which will really tax your CPU. Use HWInfo to see temps at 100% load, that's what's important. Temperatures at idle or low load are useless.

I tested in cinebend,heaven benchmark,firestrike, all have me reading under 65c
