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

looks like some people over at insanelymac have got Ryzen working on an Hackintosh! That would blow Apple current offering out of the water for 1/5th of the price!

I dont know if it just because of my amateur clocking ability or whether its the board, but on my gigbyte i have the profile 1 loaded at 2666mhz but for some reason it stays at 2133? is it something i am doing wrong?

Which kit? Try going into advance voltage and riase the SOC voltage to +0.15 or so. failing that try raising vcore a little too. I had to have my SOC at +0.180 and the CPU at reduced overclock + vcore at +0.276 offset just for it to boot more successfully at 2933mhz ram.

It's just down to the general lack of mem compatibility on AM4.

I would guess the embargo will be lifted AM US time tomorrow, sometime around mid-afternoon.

I have seen somewhere info that would be 2pm Uk time.

The urge to buy is massive but the motherboard that i am after is not in stock anywhere. Such a shame, i don't want to go Intel route again.

I don't want to put a downer on your day but I wouldn't expect much from this memory. I've got the exact stuff sitting on my shelf doing nothing 2666 was the most I could get.
I tried it with a msi tomahawk and a crosshair hero neither could get it above 2666. The gskill I currently have worked at 3200 straight away with no issues. This may improve with time but no amount of messing with settings would work for me.
