Ballistix Sport LT Overclocking

Modest settings for stable 3600mhz to try, I too had issues with Trfc, PC would **** itsself everytime I tried dropping that I got fed up doing cmos clears. Any room for improvements, dram calculators setting Twrrd being at 1 was causing me lots of errors set to auto its fine, I imagine that dimm voltage can be lowered. Gonna try Andries 3733 profile but this one will be my 24/7. The Ram is a bargain :

Vdimm 1.4, soc 1.1, VDDP 0.9, VDDG 1.0

Anyone any idea why my latency is higher than user aboves? As far as I can see, Running almost identical timings bar rear row column delay, and other 2 main timings a little tighter but my latency is around 70.5ns on my 3700x.

I heard it can be board dependant, also how many dimms are you using?

I am after some Ryzen gen 1 advice for this RAM if anyone has any, it's a long thread which mostly seems to focus on new chips.

I've got some 3200LT Sport running with my 2400G on an Asrock B450M Pro, obviously being an APU system memory performance is a bit more crucial to the machine, I have done some crude tuning basically finding out what speeds it will run at, in this case 3400 is all I can get to pass memtests regardless of how slack I make timings, so stuck with 3400 and started to reduce timing numbers, for the most part benches are reporting higher numbers for bandwidth and lower latencies than what I started with and gaming response on iGPU is improved which is all good.

But I don't really know the relationship between all the numbers and have just got here through long, slow trial and error, if anyone has a clue on what can improve this further, or if I have done something that could be negatively impacting performance let me know before I finally close the box and settle on what I have.

Cheers

@sandys ryzen/ryzen+ do not have great IMCs so 3400 is a pretty good result ;)
your pic is a bit small (and i cba to squint so can't really say if your timings are decent or not)
but getting cl14 is pretty good
 
Hmm not sure why it came through small, I shall have another try later.

Yes its 3400 is better than what I manage on my Threadrippers expensive 3600 B die RAM :( it also has a higher CPUz single thread score at same clock speed than the TR :( :D Its a strong little CPU.

We can get other kits, but these seem to be the ones people go for.

Well done OCUK nice prices on the kits as well! :)

Just need to stock Sabrent Rocket M.2 NVME drives now.

We cannot compete with Rainforest on that, but we are pushing Corsair to match their prices with their MP510 which offers same performance.
Were also going to bring in the TeamGroup MP34 M.2 SSD which offers close to the performance but at a lower price.

Ah that's good to know for my build thank you much rather buy from OCUK if I'm honest. :cool:

:O
you bought the sabrent rocket and e-die ram outside of ocuk!? Traitor you :p
Click to expand...
Shhhh ;)

Actually I bought some G.Skill RipJaw V's better value than the Crucial but I believe it was either a mis-price or as it was the last one in stock, a clearance price?

@Gibbo I believe the Corsair is based on the same tech as the Rocket, so if you can get them to match, that'll be a belter as Corsair have a much better warranty support etc... :)

sabrent rocket is a MyDigitalSSD BPX Pro rebrand
yeah, both the mp510 and rocket use the phison e12 controller with toshiba 3d tlc nand

just out of interest...what is the formatted capacity of your rocket 1tb?

Using likely completely same components TeamGroup should perform similarly.

Patriot VPN100, PNY CS3030 and Silicon Power P34A80 are other Phison E12+Toshiba NAND based drives.

They are the same drive, Phison does turnkey solution so lots of vendors just put their stickers on their two E12 controller reference designs. The difference between the two is that one has half the DRAM of the other, to cut costs a bit. The Sabrent Rocket, Segate Baracuda 510, PNY CS3030, Patriot VPN100, Team Group MP34 for example are the same 1/2 DRAM design. Corsair MP510, Seagate Firecuda 510, Silicon Power P34A80, Team Group Cardea II for example are the full DRAM one.
Easy way to tell the difference between the two is that one uses Nanya DRAM chips and is single sided up to 1TB, the other is always double sided and uses SK Hynix DRAM chips (though I'm not 100% sure on this). Performance differences are mostly negligible.

Props to OCUK for listening to what their community though, stocking E-die and more Phison E12 drives gives us more options to work with.
