4 sticks DDR5 X670-E speed?

mattp1986 · 26 Feb 2023 at 17:35

Hi all, built a new AM5 system recently and I'm trying to improve ram speed slightly.
Have a 7950x and 4090, with 64gb (4x16gb sticks) Kingston Beast Fury RGB 6000mhz EXPO ram, on a TUF gaming X670-E M/B.

ATM I'm running at 3600Mhz as the system is unstable when EXPO is activated at 6000Mhz, random BSODs and boot loops etc.

What's the maximum speed i could go to on 4 sticks RAM without causing any stability issues etc, just wondering if any of you guys have any tips, or I may have to run 2 sticks for 32gb to get more speed for the time being. Thanks guys

that would be for you to find out.. we cant tell you how your hardwear combination will react to ram speed.
start overclocking and testing

3600Mhz is the maximum officially supported speed when you have all four DIMMs populated.

If you're lucky, you might be able to push your RAM up to around 4800Mhz (the highest known speed that was able to be run) by manually inputing settings into the BIOS.

If you don't need 64GB RAM, then you will probably be better served by removing two and going with 32GB RAM at your EXPO settings of 6000Mhz instead, especially if you largely game only.

With 4 single rank, you should be able to get a lot higher than 3600, but head for 4800 first, as suggested.

Cheers for the replies guys, ill have a play around in the BIOS and up it slowly see how high i can go, i have seen reports of people getting 5200mhz on 4 sticks after playing around with voltages, but I'm not sure i have the know-how for that lol
