Ryzen 5000 WHEAs

[msk73]

I was lucky to get 5950x on the launch day and put in into my MSI B550 Tomahawk.

The CPU is as good as described by reviewers but I think the Zen2 story returned.

I get a lot of WHEA (Bus/Interconnection) errors. No problem with stability but errors perstist with new BIOS, fresh Windows and latest drivers. I asked my friends and it is not only my problem.

Same story on MSI X570 with 5900x and Asus TUF X570 with 5950X.

At the moment only Aorus boards (both X570and B550) are free from WHEAs, as reported by users I know.

How do you think? Will be AGESA updated this week or in January ?

Are you stock?

I've noticed that the new released bios updates have lost a bit of their tolerance for dram and imc.

 

[msk73]

On stock.

Speaking of RAM, with Agesa 1.1.0.0 I have not noticed any problems, but 1.0.8.0 was not booting with my normal XMP profile.

I have same WHEA warnings spam in windows event viewer and HWinfo. It started when I swapped 3900X to 5900X and updated Asus X570 Prime Pro bios to 2812 (beta). I can only run mem at 3200MHz with 1:1 ratio. Before I ran over a year with 3800MHz 1:1 with 3900X while everything else was the same. Even with the WHEA warnings system is still stable and I can run hours of Prime95 and Karhu RAM test without a single error.

 

[msk73]

Same for me. To get rid WHEAs I need to step down RAM speed (starting from 3900X stable level). At the same time staying with fast RAM and WHEAs does not impact system stability at all.

I have Same Problem with my 5600x and newest MSI x570 BIOS. What do you Guys do? Live with the Events or use 3200cl14 for now?

did any of you try a clean install of windows and drivers? i know its not ideal, but sometimes new gear needs that.

Speaking of new gear, the Ryzen 5000 series does not require power plans from AMD.

AMD Robert Hallock promises Ryzen 5000 undervolting with new functionality - VideoCardz.com

AMD Director of Technical Marketing – Robert Hallock – provided more details on Ryzen 5000 series compatibility, upcoming features, and upgrade opportunities for users with AMD 500 series motherboards. AMD lifts the curtain on Ryzen 5000 series Yesterday AMD released its Ryzen 5000 series...

Power plan referring to the AMD ones as part of the chipset driver install.

Give it a few month for AMD and Mobo makers to sort out all the bugs. If it is not impacting your normal use, does it matter?

Getting WHEA errors with anything past 3200 MHz / 1600 FCLK on MSI MAG X570 Tomahawk which was supposed to be great motherboard

3800 / 1900 is stable in RAM Test (tested past 30000%), but AIDA64 and P95 will cause WHEA errors.

Now with the trouble at MSI (apparently their factory or HQ burned down), there's a possibility that we wont see a fix in a while..

You guys might want to try setting the VDDG CCD/IOD and cLDO VDPP voltages manually. I've had success manually setting those voltages to run 1900 on the IF. Previously with the old bios' I never a reason to manually set those voltages manually till now.

seems like another Hardware pre alpha..
too bad.. i planned to buy one

Wich voltages have you Set?

 

[thesmokingman]

Wich voltages have you Set?

Do you use dram calc? In the top right box is the voltage block. We're not really over-volting these just manually setting them. And if you are using dram calc, start with the minimum column. Though I do raise CLDO VDDP more towards recommended than the minimum. On auto the voltages will be in this range anyways. Below is what I run for 1800mhz fabric.

SOC = 1.0v

VDDG CCD = 0.950v

VDDG IOD = 0.950v

CLDO VDDP = 0.900v

How do you figure? You know running RAM at 3800MHz is not officially supported & pretty much all(?) of the posters likely don't have RAM validated to run at that speed on zen3 or any of the mobos mentioned. The hardware hasn't even been out for a month & the pitchforks are out

 

[ratirt]

It's better to use 4 modules and the 3200Mhz will do fine and the performance will be way better in comparison with 2 RAM modules.

Their factory had a fire, but it was put out and production continuted the same day. However, software development has nothing to do with their factory and that fire wouldn't impact software development at all.

 

[MrKr4bS]

Someone tested the new BIOS?
7C37vHC1

 

[msk73]

The latest A51 BIOS for B550 Tomahawk solved my WHEA problems.

 

[MrKr4bS]

What is your clock for Infinity Fabric?

1800

I use these RAMs set with XMP profile. They are very sensitive to OC and usually don't post if OCed.

Could you reload your BIOS profiles or settings Up new?

Can you post at 1900? I have the same board and BIOS, Patriot 4400C19, entered everything from DRAM Calc Main page except Termination Block and CAD_BUS Block sections and can only post up to 1867 FCLK. Don't know if there's anything else I can try, I'm new to this

 

[MrKr4bS]

Now i can Run prime95 at 1900fclk

 

[MrKr4bS]

Someone of you guys tested with occt and 4 Threads? I get thousands of Errors... Even at 3200... With 12 Threads IT runs without Error...
