ASROCK X570 TAICHI - THE RYZEN 3000 MOTHERBOARD GIBBO & 8 PACK RECOMMENDS

Installed and running my RAM @ 3600. This was unstable for me with any thing over BIOS 3.0, so fingers crossed.

Edit: Well that was a big fat no, straight up random reboot after about 20-30 minutes of using Hyper-V. Have turned it down to XMP 3200. Might try tweaking it again at some point to see if I can figure it out, 3600 with same settings has been stable on every BIOS from 3.0 and prior.
Thanks, Im working at the moment so I dont have time to test it. I will give it a go later on today.
 
I dont know what they do honestly.
I think its down to a cold booting voltage issue as even when getting the ram prime and overnight ram test stable a week or so later it would fail to boot and reset to default.

Also at 3733 I wasn't able to lock in trdrd lower than 17 whereas on my B450 tomahawk I was able to set 3800 14/14/14 with the same ram type etc but maybe my brother just got a duff kit.

I mean it all depends on the kit. I always look at latency and transfer rate results to determine if the overclock is working.

3.61 boys
Update AMD AGESA ComboAM4v2 1.1.0.0 Patch C

I only checked because I am getting a 5800X today, and wanted to makes sure it was the latest one lol

Cheers!

According to Tom at OC3D and also mentioned by Kit Kuru, AMD said patch c will unlock IF @ 2000mhz for those chips capable.
 
I have an odd problem.
I have just received my 5950x. It works fine, but according HWinfo the average voltage on all cores is 1.45V+. I haven’t had time to do much, so that is just on desktop with a few browser tabs open, with 80% of the cores asleep. HWinfo seems to report the clock speeds correctly. Ryzen Master shows an average voltage of 0.5V (I think, maybe have misread it, but it definitely looked ok).
I am currently on bios version 3.61, but tried 3.40 too. I haven’t changed any settings. I installed the latest AMD chipset driver and I use the balanced power plan. I tried the latest stable and beta versions of HWinfo (6.34 should support the new processors). I haven’t reinstalled Windows or cleared CMOS yet.
Is anyone having similar issues with HWinfo? As far as I remember it worked fine with my 3700x regardless of the bios version.

Can you post a screenshot of HWINFO64 showing what you mean? I believe the CPU voltage will be locked at 1.4v ish for a few minutes after Windows boots. But after 5 min or so it should drop assuming the system is truly idle.

if the system is under light load, browsing, watching video and even some gaming then 1.45ish volts is normal and allows a few CPU cores to boost to a high frequency.
 
I figured it out. It was that buggy POS Logitech G Hub Agent trying to update or something. I killed the process and the voltage immediately dropped under 1V, while before it wouldn't go under 1.45 on any core, and CPU temp is now under 40C on the desktop when it was 60+ before. So everything seems ok now.
 
Just going to install my 5900X on the latest 3.8 BIOS.

I hope this board plays nicely with Zen 3. Part of me wants an excuse to sell it and buy a Dark Hero. PBO has never worked properly for me and the chipset fan is the loudest thing in my system even on silent.
 
Well she is alive! Always a good start.

Now to see what IF speeds are achievable.

PBO still seems entirely broken. Won't boost properly in all core loads. Useless!
