*** AMD "Zen" thread (inc AM4/APU discussion) ***

If you're primarily gaming and at 1080p I'd definitely hold off on Ryzen until at least the 6c/12t chips come out. By then Windows will be patched to fix the SMT issues and motherboard BIOSs will have matured a lot to improve stability and performance. Better to make a decision at that point.

It does make sense to wait it out. Just wanted to do something this upcoming week as I have the week of work. I'm like a child when I get something in my head lol.
 
woppy i have the crosshair turning up tomorrow and have 2x16 3200 vengeance going in it. I will let you know if i have any issues. It's such a shame you cant get into the bios because i bet the bios on the crosshairs is the old version.
It's only the2400 that's not on the list, I'm in 2 minds wether to go and buy a cheap stick of ram tomorrow morning or go and buy 18gb of hyperX that is on the list because if that then doesn't work it has to be the board
 
I'm having problems with a crosshair and a 0d error

Mine wouldnt boot, stupidly I placed the RAM in the wrong slots haha. On my board there is 4 lights indicating CPU, RAM, VGA, Storage, they light up in order and stopped at RAM so I know it was that.

woppys is getting stuck on the last light on his board which is boot.. it goes through cpu memory and gpu but then stays lit up on boot. i cant get why if its a boot issue it won't let him into the bios... although i am very rusty with all this

Remove all HDD's apart from the OS one see what that does
 
@woppy101
On Crosshair some people having problems with Hynix memory. Samsung B is OK. Need to check manufactures to see what chips they are using. Also it seems single sided rather than double sided is better.
I can't point to where I picked up this info have read to many reviews.

I've had a quick look online and most of the 0d error codes I've come across have either pointed to a faulty CPU (which you seem to have ruled out) or a fault board.

Edit: Forget this then in your case, hopefully, fingers now crossed for you..! :D
