Would love to know what you gaming performance is with mem speed that fast....
There were two May AGESAs, 1.0.0.5, which is adding only option to manually tweak more memory timings, this one was released already (Gigabyte). Asus decided to skip BIOS release based on this AGESA.
1.0.0.6 has more memory dividers (rumour says up to 4000), for this one it looks like AMD actually gave MB manufacturers date (end of May). They can't release it sooner without permission even though they have BIOS ready (ASUS)
At least that's how I understand all the recent msgs about "May AGESA"
Thanks, that would be awesome if we can get memory speeds up to 4000, that should be another nice performance boost.

Will hopefully be here for most mainboard manufacturers in the next two weeks, I'm looking forward to seeing what difference going from 3200MHz 14-14-14-32 to something like 3866MHz slightly slacker timings does.
Techspot did a great article a little while ago about memory from 2133 MHz to 4000 MHz, and the impact on lots of games on a 6700k I think it was.
It would be fantastic if they revisit that with Ryzen if the CH6 gets up to 4000.

Very close. 3866 was his deal and then you have to post in his stability thread (which has had zero repliesDoes that mean that Scone has now lost his bet and will be packaging his rig up to to be raffled for charity?
).Memory support has come a long way and I'm interested to see how far it can go give time.

Pay a visit on the OCNET discussion about the CH6 and overclocking.
Asus guys are there, so are 1700 pages almost, worth of information

Just need to eak another 22MHz out of it and they win a free PC XDNative (without overclock) 3844Mhz to be precise

EPYC SP3 motherboard, all of that sweet 8 channel and 128 PCI-E lanes. So much connectivity on this thing it is bonkers.

Ugly AF though
Agreed, you would not want a windowed case for that thing xD
Interesting that despite all the slots, there's still some sections of the PCB looking rather bare... I guess this is the result of migrating more and more of the chipset onto the CPU itself?

Possibly one variant of the board with others having additional components in those locations.

that's a server board.

BTW,thanks everyone for the motherboard suggestions earlier in the thread - mate bought an MSI Tomahawk B350 motherboard with a Ryzen 5 1600 and it worked perfectly fine out of the box. They got some Adata XPG Z1 2933MHZ DIMMs since they were not too expensive and were certified by AMD - out of the box they got 2666MHZ,so looking to see if with some newer updates and tweaks they can get closer to 2933MHZ.
Edit!!
Another mate did a build with a Ryzen 5 1400 and this motherboard:
http://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/AB350M-HDV/index.asp
On the stock cooler and stock voltages it could hit 3.7GHZ although the only issue is the lack of VRM cooling so they dialed it back to stock clockspeeds,but the motherboard is well under £70. They also had a 2400MHZ set of Kingston Hyper X DDR4 which seemed to run at 2666MHZ fine.

What motherboard did you use out of interest and did it work out of the box with your Ryzen 5 1600?? What RAM did you use??
