I'm not sure. I really like the look of this ram so I may buy another motherboard first and hopefully fix or rule out that as at fault, Then if I still need to return the memory I'll grab whatever's suitable and not too expensive.

It does? I was wondering why speeds weren't dropping when I was testing it. Then again, temps were ~30c so I guess it is kicking in... Strange that HWiNFO/CPUZ does show it dropping when on stock settings though.

Ideally, you should overclock with P-states if the bios allows. You can then set the turbo, all cores and C&Q clocks to operate to what you need. It also gives a nice low voltage setting.

I see cpuz always generally reports 3.7ghz oc.how do I prove or disprove that cool and quiet is working? All I have done is set my ratio to 37.
There really isn't much point in bothering with P-State overclocking on Ryzen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzxn1hS7Nq4
The difference between fixed clocks and stock or p-state oc is minimal.
Ex: 1700 idling at 1.5Ghz with 0.4V only uses 9W less than when it's idling at 3.9Ghz with 1.42v
Just don't disable C-States and you're fine.

Have you tried HWMonitor?
Soldato
Not yet. I will give that a try. Thanks for the tip
Soldato
HWMonitor, CPU-Z and HWiNFO all seems to report the speed stuck at the overclocked speed for me.
No P state overclocking for my K7 board unfortunately. It would be my prefered method but seems Gigabyte left it out for now.

No need for PState overclocks. Just get whatever max you can, still idles cool and barely anymore power draw anyway. 
Something odd if it's not down clocking to around 2400 ish
Have mine set @ 3.9 and it down clocks fine.
I ain't read into ryzen cpu's yet but I'm assuming your power management isn't working correctly if its not down clocking the jiggherts to something minimal!
I recall a bug in Win10......something to do with power management profiles not allowing downclocks....prob talking rubbish at this time of night lol, nn

Running my Hynix ram modules at 1.4v is fine for the long term health of the modules?

I am running my ones at the same speed, no problems so far.

Yeah. 1.5v would be fine as well.

Strangely enough I saw my CPU clock down more often with the default Windows balanced profile compared to the Ryzen power plan. Then again, the minimum processor state is at 95% compared to the balanced's 5%. I've lowered it now to 50% and haven't seen any major negative performance loss.
It's only when I set a fixed clock in the BIOS it doesn't clock down. Might try fiddle it again in the weekend when I have time to see if I can pin it down on what's causing it.

I have 3 spare brackets if you want me to post you one.
dude, ur a star! - parcel just turned up from ocuk just now too, let me check it first to see if its missing.
