Ryzen benchmarking and overclocking results

Fallout 4 is the issue, not Ryzen. When I installed Fallout 4 for the first time, my friend had me optimizing it via some special Nvidia software, before even using it - telling me it wouldn't really work nice otherwise. It's a trainwreck.

I think atm it's safe to say just bad coded games have issues with Ryzen. Project Cars is another example, a completely red cloth for AMD in general (doesn't really like Radeons as well).

Creation Engine, nuff said, Bethesda has polished that thing so many times that they ran out of polish altogether, evidence being Fallout 4 which still looks shit @ HD textures.

Gonna compare a bunch of speeds+timings

Do you have that mysterious Windows patch installed that appeared couple days ago that improves the thread handling ?

Please add a section that compares gain from higher RAM speeds only VS gains from CPU OC only: interesting to know if bigger gains come from OCing the CPU or having higher speed RAM.

The machine is on latest Windows Update

Hmm, what's the volts required for 4Ghz? My system crashes on Prime at 3.9Ghz and 1.4v.... Is it way higher?

SanityGaming · Mar 28, 2017

Vega with Ryzan will hopefully be a great combo and hoping amd can finally smack Intel and nvidia in the price line.
Am just get better and beťter.
Ryzan was a great thing for amd and have put them back high in the cpu market

Ryzen based APU with Polaris based GPU component would be nice. Just thinking of taking A8-7410, but now I'm thinking about Ryzen based APU's. I just doubt they'll be priced as low as that A8 is currently...

As long as they are cheaper than nvidia Ha

I can run my 3200mhz ram at 2400mhz WOOHOO! bios update 2.2

I updated to the 1002 bios and was able to get 3.9 @ ~1.4v but crashed after running p95 overnight, might have been memory though.

mine is stable at 4050 but needs 1.46v would need 1.44 for 4ghz and 1.42 3.9Ghz

I was hoping for 100% scaling but... not bad for $260 worth of gpus!

Kanan · Mar 30, 2017

Well don't expect perfect scaling when the 2nd GPU is running on x4 speeds :rolleyes:

next time get a proper crossfire/SLI (X370) board.

x4 speed only dropped the score ~40points... As i've been running it in the "slow" slot for a couple of days since the cmos battery is under the first card

yeah it really doesnt matter all that much...

That's great work... your scores are very close to mine for considerably less money.

Thanks, The MSI board is coming in tomorrow and the latest bios for it says "improved memory compatibility"!! I am hoping it lets me run my ram @ 3000+

A little more speed... all i wanna do on stock air

Better test some games, Firestrike isn't really a real world simulator, could be that you lose much more than that in actual games. Why would someone use the 4x slot? This has nothing to do with the cmos battery.

probably to reset bios.

Exactly, with a dual slot card it covers up the cmos battery. It just makes things easier. I've played a few games and I'm sure it's not getting 100% scale but the FPS have improved not getting drops into the 40s anymore.. pretty much a solid 60fps.

v12dock · Mar 30, 2017

3.9 looks to be stable with 1002

Lt_JWS · Mar 31, 2017

MSI board was a flop... It did run the ram @ 3200Mhz (when it feels like it) It did allow me to OC in bios, but not as much and was extremely unstable. It could just be bios.... The thing that scared me about it was how hot the VRMs got when overclocking. I'll give this to the ASRock board, its stable, runs cool and works without a lot of fuss!

infrared · Apr 4, 2017

Well, I'm starting to understand what this thing wants now.

I did some playing around, 4.1GHz is benchable at 1.50v, did a quick Cinebench run and got 1844 which is a personal best atm.

Things were going well on the ram overclocking side of things. 3650MHz stable with 16-16-16-34 and 1.43v
SoC voltage is 1.175, may even be able to go a bit lower but that's fine for now.

So now I've set up a 4.0ghz(1.44v)/3650mhz profile that seems to run nicely in WCG and voltages aren't too crazy.

Bios 1002 for the Crosshair VI definitely works nicer than 0902, but it's still a bit finicky. I was having a really hard time getting ram stable at 3200mhz with 100mhz bclk, but weirdly increasing the base clock and using a different memory divider bought it to life.

I don't seem to have the best of luck with CPU's, my 6700k loves lots of voltage, and this 1800x seems to be the same :/

phanbuey · Apr 4, 2017

update your speeeeecs!

v12dock · Apr 7, 2017

I will try the new CH6 bios http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=167530 with the microcode update when I get home.

You better ask why not.
Only 3-4% penalty on GTX 1080 which is waaaay more powerful card.
