New RAM day help. Motherboard issues.

robert priestley · 3 Apr 2020 at 08:44

Hello everyone, i hope you can help me out as im stuck.

My set up:
Gigabyte ga-ab350-gaming 3 (motherboard)
Evga 1070ti
Ryzen 3600x
Evga 1000gq psu

Old ram corsair 3000mhz vengeance 2x8gb (works and boots)

New ram hyper x fury rgb 2x16gb (won't boot)

Ok so when i install the new ram, i can not get my system to not at all, i have tried both sticks individually and they work fine, but together no. I have reset the bios and still nothing, whilst i had the old sticks in changed the xmp setting to on along with changing the frequency to 3200mhz then replacing the sticks, still nothing.

Where am i going wrong?

Cheers for any help!

Ive tested all slots.

About the voltage that might make sense. Sorry im not great at this.

In voltage i did ensure to select 1.35v in the bios. Then put the new sticks in but still nothing. For a larnotes,here's on the mobo there's a large red LED strip that lights up. When i use 1 dick of the new ram, or both the old this lights up and then boots. When i try both new sticks, it flashes white Almost and then starts off, no boot. Could this mean anything?

Also bios updated to f40. I had to update it to this for ryzen 3 compatibility.

@EsaT thats a little over my head sorry

@Joxeon ok, how should i do this? with just going into the bio when i have 1 stick of the new ram installed... save,, switch off and install the second stick and try?

Ok going to give this a try today.

Should i endeavour to keep xmp on then?

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 08:39

So under voltage settings there's three options.

Dynamic Vcore(DVID) - AUTO
Dynamic VCORE SOC (DVID) - auto
DRAM Voltage (CH A/B) - auto. 1.200V

Is it that soc voltage i should change?

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 08:43

So i can change the line DRAM Voltage (CH A/B) from auto to 1.15 but the vcore soc only goes up to +0.300v

I presume you mean change the dram voltage (ch a/b) line?

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 09:21

Ill type all that it says

Cpu vcore - 1.5v (changing constantly)
Cpu VDDP - around 0.912
DRAM channel a/b voltage - 1.236 (static)
+3.3v - 3.363v (static)
+5v - 5.070 (static)
+12v - 12.384 (static)
VCORE SOC - 1.040 (changing to minor quantities)

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 09:22

So i need to change the dynAmic vcore soc to +0.110?

And leave the dram voltage to auto?

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 09:31

Ok moment of truth. Just going to restart, switch off add ram and see

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 09:35

Alas no luck im afraid. No boot. The strip on the motherboard didn't light. Ill try upping it again

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 09:39

Weirdly enough also. Every time i restart and enter bios i get three message 'BIOS has been reset. Please re-config your BIOS setup items if needed'

I think the bios is ressetting every time? As i keep selecting 'fast boot' however... No fast boots to be had, even with other ram lol

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 09:49

Ah ok. Ill try upping that figure now. Failing all this. If i was just too now the bullet and get an x570 board (being ryzen 3 ready) would this probably fix the issue?

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 10:06

Unfortunately upping the voltage again wouldn't work.

Thank you for all the help anyway dude, much appreciated!

@GIGA-Man , is this someone who works for gigabyte? Im confused lol sorry new to the forum game.

Ill try gigabytes website today.

And on the new motherboard front. If i could pick up an x570 for around 150 it would only be about 50 more than the b450. Only issue is im (clearly) not to great on motherboards so unsure of which is the best deal for the spec etc.

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 10:47

My worry with the b450s though is i would have to do a bios update and all that jazz for the ryzen 3000 series. Unless these are ryzen 3 ready?

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 10:47

I was checking out the b450's however in some areas they say they're 3000 ready and some day they need an update first

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 12:27

@opethdisciple

Ive tried this already

And i don't have the latest but latest but 2. Would this make a huge difference? Im on bios f40. Updated to get the board ryzen 3000 ready

robert priestley · 4 Apr 2020 at 17:37

At the time of updating bios this was the latest available.

But i shall give it a go

thank you
