Ryzen Owners Zen Garden

Mine is average I think, ~ 1.4v for 4.0 P95 stable.

 

[RealNeil]

Hoping for the best with my 1700X and Hero VI board.
I have yet to start the build.
I'd be happy on 3.8-4.0 on all cores if I can get away with it.

 

[SKD007]

Nope, which makes finding the right sticks a bit difficult. I can say, if you buy some G.SKill 3200 MHz C14 sticks, you should not have any problems. There are some kits ready for Ryzen from G.Skill already; at least, I have some they sent me, so I assume they will be in stores soon if not already.

I have G.SKill 3200 MHz C14 32GB which is duel rank and wont go past 2666mhz... I see G.SKill 3200 MHz C14 16gb kit single rank rams are clocking really well

This dude's making 3400 C16 dual rank 32 GB RAM running @ 3200 C14.

Hard to achieve, but very much possible.

My ram is F4 3200 14c not 16

I know: you said so on the post right before my 1st reply.

His isn't 3200 C16: it's 3400 C16 but he's running it @ 3200 C14.

oh ok. but wats the v ? i tried 1.35 no luck. may be i should try running it at 15c or so

At this point, you will need to flash BIOS a few times in the coming months as fixes come out. Each should have a significant impact as AMD revises the AGESA code.



I don't mind flashing from Windows, to be honest, but I have been flashing these AMD boards from DOS using a command prompt... My nails get shorter as the process completes..

DOS is safer imo. There are no running processes to interrupt the flashing process.
Windows is different story I always expect like AV or the Firewall to kill the process or something.
Never had any issues though with any of them.
Plus I have bios programmer and I can always pull the bios chip of flash it and solder it back again.
Always being extra careful not to have to go to plan B .

Okay, getting better...

Vdroop must be high:

Vcore upped to 1.43 (HWinfo shows 1.35-1.37 in SVI2 TFN and CH6 says 1.39))
Mulitplier to 39
Spread spectrum off as well now with previous settings (SOC voltage not changed)

Noticed my VRM temps are quite low so surely there is lots of voltage headroom left?

Air coolers are fab - get hot fast but actually drop over 10 minutes of prime by 5-6 degrees. TBH, hitting 8 cores at 3.9Ghz on an air cooler isn't too bad. I'll push for 4Ghz soon enough once i find out if the current settings are game stable. If i can keep the Tctl under 75 I'll be happy. The mobo reading I'm taking as wrong (5 degrees out).

The following is after 10 minutes of prime.

It should be on the pic but that pic is a bit hard to see

He does mention it's @ stock volts, just before the pic, unless he's taking about some other setting @ stock volts: dunno

 

[HD64G]

I certainly have a poor chip. Sadness ensues.

You haven't seen all yet. With new BIOS iterations coming later and RAM compatibility, OC will get better me thinks. Let's wait until May. You already have a monsterous CPU-GPU combo afterall.

Have you tried increasing the SoC voltage? Give 1.20v a try (and then reduce it if it works to find min required voltage, id expect less than 1.1v is needed).

You shouldn't need to slacken the timings, in theory it should be able to run at it's rated voltage and timings. You could give 16-16-16-36 a try, it might let it run if the increased SoC doesn't help.

Yeah, getting better. Only 0.1 away from the magical 4Ghz.

 

[infrared]

I think 3.9 is the sweet spot with reasonable voltage. If your chip is anything like my 1800x I don't think you'll reach 4.0 without 1.4v+ (mine needs 1.425v), but you can try these, might help a little.

1.8v PLL voltage - 2.0v
VDDP (tweaker's paradise) - 1.02v

Also does anyone know if sense mi has much effect? I've had it set to enabled and default 272 (iirc), but it wasn't stable before or after I made the change so idk if it's actually useful or not, or what value to use. I think it's just on auto atm.

AFIK sensemi skew is only good for readings. Like the temps offset etc.. 272 is supposedly stock for ASUS from what I read at OCN, people were using it to try and make their temps a bit more realistic. The 0902 BIOS whacked out a lot of readings and that helped some people but not all. I don't think it has any bearing on overclocking/stability at all.

 

[infrared]

Okay, cool. Thanks for that

Posted this on the Ryzen OC thread.

3.9Ghz and 1080ti at 2050 (max boost)

 

[purecain]

look at the fun your all having with your new builds.im not jealous... much! damn... I can see a new ryzen cpu in my future. i think I'm going to really enjoy this build. loads of good info on ddr4 in this thread btw. i read that gaming is improved by as much as 20% as new games are released coded to run on the platform.

my haswell system is starting to struggle. has everyone found their ryzen chips to be pretty powerful compared to their intel setups?.

 

[Hood]

I was wondering how Win 10 Creators Update is working on Ryzen. I installed it yesterday on my Intel system, had zero issues (unusual for a major update). I'm curious whether the update addressed any Ryzen issues (core parking, power profiles?) since M$ has now had a chance to collect telemetry data from Ryzen systems. Any Ryzen owners installed v1703 yet?

Ya that's the problem. It's not clear.

Oh ok I will try that. Mine is at .98 or so

@ 1st i was having trouble viewing the pic after saving it to desktop (kept getting reading errors) but i managed and increased it's size by 30%: any more and you'll have trouble reading.



Hope it helps.

No luck. It goes to black screen and then I have to reset bios for the black screen to go..

in your bios you should be able to disable rank interleaving... that might get you more oc.

 

[SKD007]

This stupid msi motherboard bios is crappy. Can't find anything. Old fashion bios was much more easier.. I will try to find that option tomorrow.

 

[SKD007]

There is no such option on this bios. I searched for it and could not find any. All I can do is set tam timing and select speed and set voltage. Voltage is already at 1.36 and still no luck
