New Gigabyte Bios is looking good for finally having my RAM stable at 3466.

Only 210% into memtest HCI but 185% was the furthest I had gotten before.

Fingers crossed.

Hi is this the F6 that now appears to be out of beta?

I'm going to give that a go soon. Hopefully it means I can set my overclock properly in the BIOS and not have to mess about with easytune software.

Yeah the F6 is out of beta. It's available on the Support section of each board on the website.

4.075Ghz 3200Mhz CL14, 5000% HCI coverage. Think I've tuned 3200Mhz as far as it'll go.

Unfortunately at these CPU speeds i have to keep Geardown enabled which adds some latency.

Managed to get Geardown disabled and slightly looser timings of 14-14-14-30-44 stable.

Also, do you have any gpu overclocking software?

If so, uninstall/disable if soc voltage don't help.

Uninstalled afterburner and all of the gigabyte apps today. Put the SOC up to 1.2v. Flashed to new BIOS and restarted a few times. No issues :) will do some thorough testing now!!

Thanks all

The new bios seems better. I'm running memtest overnight tonight but so far seems good

That's good. Hopefully it stays that way. Ryzen systems can be temperamental!

Once you sure you good, I would suggest reinstall what you removed one by one and testing after each one added to see if all ok - if not, you know the software culprit.

If all good, you can try lowering soc until you find issues - or like me, you can just leave it at 1.2v because you are sick of testing your Ryzen system :)

Argh, F9 code again on restart this morning! Only one loop though. Google time...
 
I find my 1800X sample is very sensitive to SOC voltage. Too much and everything becomes unstable when pushing a high CPU frequency and tuning memory.

I'm only running 1.025v SOC at the moment for 4.075Ghz and 3200Mhz CL14.
 
Having updated to every bios since I adopted Ryzen in March, beta or full, I will stick on 1401 unless I run into future issues. :)
 
So after running my 1600 and Gaming 5 rig for a week stock I'm playing with some overclocking. Currently trying to get 3.8Ghz stable with prime on 1.33v, 1.32 crashed after about 45mimutes which was somewhat irritating. I'm wondering whether I should try LLC before upping the volts any further though, although the volts look stable now as I'm watching this run so not sure if that would help or not. A bit disappointed as I was hoping to get to 3.9 but I didnt really want to go over 1.35 for a 24/7 overclock. That doesn't look likely at all at the moment.

EDIT: This is running my Corsair LPX at 3200Mhz

EDIT: 1.33v crashed just before the hour, noticed load volts dropping from 1.331 to 1.296 so will give LLC a shot.

There was a new set of beta bios for some of the MSI boards yesterday. I flashed my b350 tomahawk artic earlier and it now boots with DDR4 3466 / 3600. I had a quick play but cant get either stable yet so switched it back to tight DDR4 3333 timings again. I'm still getting 1700 score in cinebnech and 8500+ in time spy cpu test (1440p) with it clocked at 3.85ghz so it's all good. It should be quiet a nice gaming experience once I get a vega in there! cant wait to get rid of this reference 290!!!
 
Well I have installed a fresh copy of Windows 10 and it is much faster! I highly recommend that no one takes the lazy option like I did and just plug your hard drive in to boot from your old copy of Windows :). A fresh install is the way forward!

I think it's accepted best practice to fresh install windows with a new build (unless you are replacing with the same board), and certainly if moving to a different product line.
Freshly installing Windows on the same system can make everything better, and I think some people will do that after a period even if they have no issues.
