They've swiped that info' from here I bet.

"Il y a bien des Ryzen 16C/32T axés HEDT prévus sur X399 dans 4/6 mois. Clocks ~2.4/2.8G. 2 dies MCM. 4 chan DDR4. Socket LGA SP3r2. ~150W.

"There are many Ryzen 16C / 32T focused HEDTs planned on X399 in 4/6 months. Clocks ~ 2.4 / 2.8G. 2 dies MCM. 4 chan DDR4. Socket LGA SP3r2. ~ 150W."

Actually that seems true. AIDA dev confirmed that AMD never mentioned this CPU so far, but then a motherboard manufacturer told them that yes they are indeed working on a board for this CPU.

Hmm, HWinfo doesn't list anything as VRM

Mine is listed under the motherboard section, you will have Temperature 1,2,3,4,5.

In the Bios on my Gaming3 under Smart Fan it said VRM Mos Temp and it was 110c. So I looked at HWInfo and Temperature 5 on mine was 110c so I knew that was the VRM temp.

Well, I have a Temperature 3, 4, 5, 6 under motherboard temp in hwinfo.

Which if its those, I am fine ont he X370 Prime Pro as they are sitting at low 50's with CPU pushed to 3.95 with around 1.36V
 
If Vrm's are high what does concern me isn't there a board with no heat sink on the VRM's at all i am sure it was a gigabyte MATX will look..


Its an Asus

Prime B350M-A AMD B350

Just bare VRM's would love to know what the temps are on that :eek:

That is worrying. Gibbo and 8pack did mention that the lower boards have poor VRM cooling and that will limit overclocks.

That'll probably be the idle temp though or low load temp. When pushing the CPU for a few minutes (benchmarking etc) then you need to see the "max" temp on HWinfo and then see how high the temp has gone and you'll be able to determine if the VRMs are getting good cooling or not. Under 80C should be good for MAX VRM temp.

So what happens if you have an 1800X and a B350, VRM temps will be permanently high at stock settings?

Its not that high at idle. And it requires something like Prime95 to push it above 90C at 3.7GHz (1800X max clock). VRMs are rated to handle that though.
 
I am doing 2 Ryzen builds today so will report back the VRM temps will be using a laser heat gun and will add cooling to the vrm area with a fan see what that brings ..

Agree but i have seen some boards not Ryzen where there was no active heat-sink on the VRM's and the boards where like well done toast on the PCB in the VRM area ..this concerns me with that board Asus Prime B350M-A AMD B350 without any heat-sink on the vrm at all

I am not at base so do not have my photos of the boards
but as you can see here one off the net over time without an heatsink what happens the underside will be worse

Sorry for the size with them being links
:eek:
