Thanks! I know Beta versions can also be withdrawn, when it turns out that they have problems I had just assumed that 1.53 was withdrawn as bad.
MSI's X570 Tomahawk May Become Go-To OC Board??

...I haven't managed this yet. I suspect that if it's even possible with this RAM (8Pack 3600MHz 'Ripped Edition') it'll require more voltage than I'm comfortable using on a 'daily driver'. Not as if I'm hurting for gaming performance as things stand.
Side note - boy am I glad I bought that RAM when I did. I paid ~£140 - it's now £218.99 as I type this
I might try shooting for 3800 @ CL14 tomorrow with mo' powah

Hello friends, does anyone know if this board supports high Res audio? I'm looking at buying the steelseries pro headphones without the DAC as they're £50 cheaper.
Searching around, these headphones can support high Res audio if the motherboard supports it but I don't know how to check if X570 tomahawk supports high Res audio. Any help would be appreciated.

That's about the best memory you can get, so you may have hit your boards limit, or the limit of your CPU's memory controller.

I'm now at 14.14.14.28 @ 3800mhz,1900mhz fclk
all sub timings tightened also. So far I've just slapped the dram voltage at 1.5v. POSTed and booting into Windows no problems. Currently running memtest, will then test with Realbench and then some gaming tomorrow. If all is good I'll gradually start bringing the voltage down.Thats that 2x16gb kit to

@SpudMaster - if you're managing it with only 1.5V then I may have a go What's your SoC voltage?

Do you mean Chip SoC or CPU NB/SoC?
Motherboard says my Chip SoC is 1.028v and CPU NB/SoC is 1.106v. Can't say if it's fully stable yet but did one pass on memtest and about 30 mins on Realbench last night. Will give it a proper test tonight when I'm home

CPU NB/SOC is the SOC you're referring too surely?
Chipset SOC is the X570 Chipset.

I'm getting on well with this board. Straight off the bat it's boosting higher than my CH6 on lower core usage, all-core is roughly the same, though trying to figure out best PBO settings.
RAM overclocking on the other hand is a bazillion times better on this board.
Being cheap though the USB layout on IO and lack of clear CMOS button is disappointing, but i'm used to it now.

With DRAM voltage set to 1.47, I have to check what this board is overvolting that to. I also need to see about tightening some of the subtimings. But it's gone through a couple of CB23 multi runs (scored ~12100) with no issues.

Nice, with 1.47 set in bios your voltage will probably be reported as ~1.5v. As I said above set 1.5v in bios and it reports about 1.527-1.53v. Hopefully I can bring my voltage down a little when I fine tune.

As far as I know, the RIPPED version is not available as a 2x16gb kit, so I assume you actually have the normal 8Pack kit.
1.5v is not that unusual for these sticks.
Soldato
Never claimed it was the Ripped version, just its the 2x16gb 16.16.16.38 kit. Ripped just seems like an excuse to charge you more to have a tighter timings and more volts when running XMP.
Just stated its the 32gb kit at larger modules have a tendency of not clocking as well.
Soldato
That's my current RAM settings if anyone is interested
Soldato
That is indeed some damned impressive RAM
Here's what mine reports right now (still need to spend some more time tweaking it):
Compared with yours it looks like there are a few settings that might stand tightening.
