    Can I get to 1900?

    There are my timings - https://ibb.co/hDHmGfP I assume if I can't get to 1900 stable then I should drop back to 1867 for everything so it is all in sync and then look at tightening my timings?

    Is this RAM faulty?

    I have taken delivery of a 4*16Gb 8-Pack 3600 B-grade kit. When I try to activate XMP profile 1 it will not work, however profile 2 does work ok even though they are the same from what I can see. I have tried to increase the speed of this to the next setting available (1833 Mhz) but it fails...

    Should I upgrade my MSI 450 Tomahawk Max?

    I recently managed to get hold of a 5950X at a decent price. AS it is still an AM4 I simply replaced my 3900X with the new processor. The PC runs fine but I am just starting to overclock my RAM and whilst testing with PC MArk 10 it is just crashing my machine. I have raised a case with the...

    Upgrade to 8 Pack B-Die?

    I am curently running 4 * 16Gb Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 3200 @ 1733 Mhz, 16-18-18-36 with an AMD Ryzen 5950X. I have seen that I can get 64Gb (4*16Gb) of 8-Pack B-Die 3600 for 149.99 so am tempted but I have a couple of questions: 1) Is it worth it? I am assuming that this will clock higher...

    Apps for testing OC

    So I have finally found what the issue is. If I leave my multiplier at auto it causes the crash. If I set it to 35 then the test runs fine. It is a 5950X running in a B450 Tomahawk Max. Has anyone else seen these sort of issues? Currently testing with multiplier set to 35 to see what my RAM...

    MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX and 5950X

    I recently found a deal for a new 5950X so snapped it up (unfortunately not at OCUK). It is all installed in my Motherboard (MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX) and seems to be detected fine by the BIOS. When I run CPU-Z it is missing some details about the processor and Aida64 is also failing to report...

    Very strange severe lagging PC issue after a complete new build. Tried everything can't work this one out so asking for help desperately pls

    I'd start with testing your memory like you said, also in Windows make sure that the .NET compilation isn't running (I wouldn't expect to see this much of a slowdown on an SSD though). You can force .NET to update everything by running ngen.exe /update. You will need to do this in each of the...

    I am looking to get a new home lab and have found an AMD EPYC 7551P, MB and 64GB 2133 RAM on the bay. Alternatively I can buy the CPU and MB but then have to source the RAM myself. As the CPU supports up to 3200 RAM should I go for this? If I get just teh MB and CPU, then add 64GB 2666 RAM...
