AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

Ops double post

 

[8 Pack]

Any 2 x 16gb 3600 kits or staying with 2 x 8?

2x16 also worked no issues and 4x8 3600c14.

Are you just trolling for clicks ???

2x16 also worked no issues and 4x8 3600c14.

It was more a question if you were going to have any 2 x 16gb kits for sale similar to the 2x8 3600 cl16 kit, but it doesn't seem like it.

I got this kit for my Ryzen 5 2600 last year:

It is Samsung B-die,so 3200C14 or 3333C16 doable with the new CPUs?

Below is from 2xxx reviewers guide.

Spoiler

PR on dual rank was 2666MHz/2400MHz/1866MHz depending on config, etc.

1xxx reviewers guide had:-

Spoiler

From ASRock X570 product page I think 3xxx Official speeds will be as below:-

Spoiler

These figures for 1/2XXX look extremely pessimistic, probably bottom line of what they guarantee the worst duds can still do after jayztwocents and linus have dropped them a few times prior to testing.
According to 8 Packs comments in this thread, the speeds taken from ASRock's X570 look to be in line for defensiveness.

One more week for 64GB at 3600+MHz

Who are you talking to? Although you could mean every one on this thread

I'm currently trying to decide between the X570 Aorus Master and the CH8 Hero WiFi. Former has a better looking VRM & sink, and additional m.2, but I'm not sure if I could stand the bios after looking at X470 and Z390 videos of Gigabyte boards. Having an Asus Z97 at the moment, the CH8 bios looks practically the same, interface wise, and I imagine will be the best, most intuitive board for memory overclocking. Although it looks a little less feature rich.

Thoughts?

How much worse is the VRM design on my x370 for overclocking compared to the new boards coming out? When I bought it, it was considered one of the best with a 16 power phase design.

 

[Ad_Augendae]

Which board ?

x370 taichi will be fine as long as asrock releases the bios update to support ryzen 3000.
stop fretting.

Can I just say No, would that work?

Now you're just trolling.

I know they have dropped taichi being flagship but didn't think it would be lower end/entry

I am simply passing on what I was told by ASRock, I deal with their IPC/Commercial boards and I asked, they told me. That is it, there is no argument, I am neither right nor wrong, just passing on the information.

it's probably a doubled 6+2 phase VRM. It's going to be more than good enough.

Its finally here!

Looks like they heard me distress call

It will be enough to overclock the 12 core if you wanted, obviously assuming you have a good cooler.

Now we wait to see if they have improved the bios this time around. The early versions for our board should have been illegal.

Should have mentioned the Taichi part aha. Wondering if it would handle the 16 core in a few years.

Probably get the 6 or 8 core for now.

About 12watts of heat @100A, this should work ok 6+2 phase with doublers, but as already stated, it may work now 'but' it depends how the update support is going to be for these older boards in 12 months or so is the question you need to be asking yourself.

I'm in the same boat chap. Currently got a X370 Taichi because I didn't want to keep having to buy a new motherboard every few years when I upgraded the CPU.

It was the whole reason why I bought what I thought was a decent motherboard in the first instance, followed by the promise by AMD of support until at least 2020. I hate spending money unnecessarily, especially when I don't have loads to play around with!

If i own that motherboard . . . max i would subject it to is a 12 core. Should handle it fine. The 16 core cpu is the reason we have the overbuilt, super expensive X570s - imo.
