*** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

8 Pack overclocking the 1700 @ 3.9Ghz on Asus Crosshair.


vcore 1.45v
SOC 1.15

I might try it......

---

I was at 1.44v and SOC at 1.1 and Prime was fine but monitor wake from idle wasn't sometimes.

if i overclock to 3.9
my Auto voltage is 1.360V to 1.380V
never have issue booting

Well for curiosity's sake I gave it an offset of 0.00v and set it to 3.85... and now volts are 1.396-1.404 and it seems to be running prime quite happily. However it's slammed the prime temps through the roof! :o

Also it doesn't downclock at idle... on the whole, I think I'll just play with the offset and see how low I can get it at stock settings.

*edit* I'm confused :( Ryzen Master doesn't seem to care what offset I entered in the bios, it shows the same voltage range. CPU-Z thinks 1 core running flat out under xfr is hanging around 1.38v (less than the previous maximum I was seeing and reasonable given the offset), meanwhile HWMonitor has recorded a maximum of 1.519v...

Advice appreciated because I have no idea what I'm doing or whether I'm worrying about nothing :/

amd profile doesnt downclock, balanced will.

i had the same thoughts

i came to the following conclusion

stock
Higher voltage
lower temp
lower perf

OR
lower voltage
high temp
high perf

so i went for the latter.

in game at stock it runs at 1.3V but idle it jumps all the time to 1.4V
so it bit all over the place

you could turn of amd precision boost, thus disabling it boosting it self to 4GHz and see what voltage it does?

the other problem i have is at stock cold boots do not boot. Overclocked does :D

i wouldnt use prime though, its not real world, but does give you the highest temp. i use realbench its true world
 
Must admit I have has this 1700 since April. Not overclocked it as I was waiting on the bios. I have had 3200 C14 mem working for a while though.

Using the 9920 bios on the C6H board, all I had to do was set the P0 state FID to 90 and left everything else as stock. I have a 3.6 OC with downclocking as standard and a vcore of 1.2V. This is with stock cooling and I will leave it as this for a while to check it out.

The first thing I did with my FX8350 CPU was overclock to the max, but with Ryzen, I do not see the need at the moment.

Once you start you cant stop. :o

I should never have started because all I'm doing is tinkering and stability testing. No gaming. :rolleyes:

And I still cant find stability.

1hr is no where near enough for stability testing. The issue I get with my monitor not waking from sleep can be seen after about 1.3hrs in to tests.

What vcore did you have to set to get 3.8Ghz stable? To give me a ball park figure.

At 1.3v after 1.30hrs I am still getting this no wake from sleep issue with monitor. (Multiple successful wakes prior tho)

1.35v at 3.8ghz is solid for me with 3466 ram.
Apart from the cold boot bug that they STILL haven't fixed.

When power is removed from the psu, i.e taking the cable from it or turning the pc off at the wall, the next time I come to boot it gets into a boot loop.
I then have to reset cmos, enter bios, load profile and all is ok.
If the cable is left in or it never gets unplugged or my house doesn't lose power (old house) its fine but its annoying as hell.
This happens when running ram speeds above 3200, the ram is verified stable at 3466 but i dread the though of turning it on in case at some point in the day the wife has unplugged it or whatever.

The hoover is more important than the PC. :p

I'm on the cusp of giving up overclocking. Wait until maybe the new year. I'm the kind of person that doesn't like to abuse the PC. All this reboots and pressing of reset switches when the monitor wont wake makes me want to stop testing and reformat windows so I can get back to a clean state. :o

What do you think I should do. Carry on or give up?

When Asus release a new BIOS we lose all our settings don't we? Have to put it back in again and most likely retest?

Once upon a time I overclocked my QX9650 to 3.7Ghz and that ran for over 5 years. I only returned it to stock when I decommissioned the PC and it became a workstation.

Yeah all settings get wiped. In my case the bios updates have made things even worse.
Go for 3.8 @ 1.35v and give that a go. Your issues were the same as mine when pushing for 3.9.
 
Update: Not sure if it will stick, but bumped the memory DRAM voltage to 1.4V and it has booted with 3200Mhz this time. I've also swapped out my HD 4800 driver manually for a downloaded version (rather than the windows trash that would only allow 1280*1024!), and now my daughter can play Jurassic World.

Will attempt some OC'ing later if I get time.

Lamentably, my bios does not have p-state overclocking :/ I have applied an offset of -0.072v, which seems to have some effect on multi core, but does nothing against the spikes of xfr boost.

I'm getting 6 cores flat out at 1.24v and 3691mhz, which is odd but sure, I'll take those 91mhz. That's like 1/3 of a respectable Ryzen overclock done for me :p It's a comfortable 66 degrees under the worst Priming I can give it.

Other than that, I'm just gonna leave it at stock frequencies with this minor undervolt and assume the one-core spikes are completely fine and normal and that I should stop worrying :)
