HWZ AMD Ryzen R5 Owners Klub

[MGeaR356]

I assume by getting an AIO you are intending to push OC limits? Get an X370 board, you'll need it if you're going 4GHz+. Stable power delivery is everything when you need to push high Vcore. Pricing of top tier boards like C6H is quite disgusting, but something like the Prime X370-A is still a good choice.

Oh yeah, the 1600X is likely to OC higher, and (arguably) likely to have a better IMC for DRAM OC stability as well.

Bro I also quite incline to get asus x370 prime.. Any idea it's vrm heatsink and what phrase 4+6 something is the best or got better recommendation for Overclocking

 

[ah_khoo]

personally i'd go for x370 for 6core & r7 chips as d vrm on x370 can take more beating. as for brand, it is really down to personal preferences. for me Asus flagship (ROG) is always a must if u want d best, not sure how their mid tier series (prime) doin thou.

Pai seh bro, been a while upgrading computer.. Normal ram does it mean ddr4 by Kingston and just tally with the Samsung chip set?

Not sure how much have you followed or research on Ryzen and it's RAM compatibility but here's the TL;DR version.

There are a few RAM OEM, most common few are Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron.

Ryzen seems to works better with Samsung B-die RAM to achieve the XMP profile set by manufacturers (Corsair, G.Skills, Team Group, Klevv, etc)

A few of them are the one I mentioned, the Trident Z series that are rated 3200MHz C14 and 3600MHz C16, as apparently Samsung B-die RAM is easier to overclock to their XMP profiles on a Ryzen system. The AMD specific expensive Flare X series from G.Skills also made from Samsung B-die that are guaranteed to hit their rated 3200MHz with CAS14.

However, after the recent AGESA 1.0.0.6 update being pushed to most motherboard, support for Hynix ram to hit 3200mhz is easier but some still need some tweaking on the dram voltage and timing and not as easy as Samsung B-die with just following the XMP profile.

So buying Hynix ram now also not bad. It's almost certain to hit 2933mhz and 3200mhz will need some effort to experiment.

Ripjaws v 2400 was able to run @ 2800 @ 14 14 14 1t on b350 strix b4. Should be able to have same mileage if not better on tomahawk which i feel slighty friendlier.

Noob here can anyone help me what specific timings on msi tomawak bios?
I wish to stable overclock 2666 to 2993 if possible.

Currently on:
Ripjaws V 2x4gb 2400 default at 15-15-15-35 @1.2v
Ryzen 3 1200 OC 3.8 @1.275v

1. load optimized BIOS setting
2. set vsoc to 1.15v
3. use memtry it, go for 2666 1st
4. if successfully booted, save it into a OC profile. shutdown
5. up 1 notch of mem freq in memtry it, repeat step 4
6. clean up d OC profile, always a good practice to save a stock setting minus d integrated device + some cpu setting, like enable virtualization which is disabled by default + d no of failed oc attempt to 1 (instead of 5)

once mem freq hit d ceiling, only mess with cpu clock + vcore ONLY.

have fun.

Look at my new spec. I have joined the CLUB

hmm why i set my ram CL15/15/15/35 hor when i use CPU-Z view my memory alway default back to CL16/15/15/35 wan ar?

Ryzen favour even number for CAS Latency. So either 14 or 16. 15 rarely work from my experience.

Depend on freq n ofcourse capabilityof ya ram. I guess ur at 3066? On this particular multiplier (3066),cl15 will be run as cl16. Across all boards, or at atleast 2 boards i've tested.

Thanks! My ram only stable memtry till 2400 17-17-17-17-37 @1.15v
I see some other lower preset timing under 2400 too.
Should different timing matters or I can stick on max timing I achieve?

 

[MGeaR356]

Actually I am thinking this way

Save money get asus b350 gaming + 1600

Or
Whack a asus hero or gigabyte k7 x370 + 1600

The later is because next time Ryzen 2 comes out, can just change chip while retaining mobo.. (unlike Intel crap where cannot re use)

What's say you guys?

hmmm... thats too low for MFR sticks. ok u can try to ditch d memtry it method. can u try manual setting d ram multiplier (with memtry it & axmp off). start with 2400, timing auto, put vdimm @ 1.35v & work ya way up? MFR should be able to cope with 2800 at pretty tight timing, 14-14-14-14-3x.

oh ya before i forget can u download thyphoon burner to verify d ram chip used on ya sticks?

i'd say go for it. xtra 1xx but u get better mileage & possibly better support (on bios update especially). why not?

Hi, I'm looking to get a ryzen 1600 + ASUS PRIME B350-Plus. Like to check if Crucial Ballistix Tactical DDR4-3000 is compatible and will it clock to its full potential?

Sorry I want to clarify if the ram is compatible and able to clock to its full potential

Its not in the qvl list when i last checked. So use it at your own risk and ymmv.

is it damn...let me try playing with cl 14 but i know sure fail want

i'm on 2933 atm

mind to share which mobo ur using & run typhoon burner to check d chipset used on ya sticks? if Hynix MFR/AFR u should be able to go 2800 @ CL 14 at least. if can't hold CL15 @ 2933/3066 u mite as well whack 3066 @ CL16, prolly 16 18 18 18 3x 2T & see how it goes.

Thanks for the advice.

Another question so far I have gathered that there are 2 rams mentioned here a couple of times, corsair vengeance LPX 3200mhz and the g.skill RipJawsV 3000. Which should I go for? Are there any rams around the same price range (no need rgb) that I have missed out?

atm i am at 15 15 15 15 35 1T @ 2933 @1.35V(default) can boot but once boot to window CL turn to 16

ya it's an Hynix since it's an CL15 ram

you see my spec on the right, incase u cannot see it's ASUS ROG STRIX B350-F GAMING

I dunno much about ram OC but are CL14 2800 better than CL16 2933?

2800 @ 14 14 14 1t is way better than 2933 @ cl16. Fyi hynix Afr is better than mfr.
