*** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

Seems all of the prices are back up, that's disappointing. Thought they were permanent price cuts, guess not.

@chroniclard I'll give it another shot when I try for higher RAM speeds again, I'm curious how much I'll get overnight with higher RAM speeds.
 
Strange, place I bought the 1600 from no longer has anything but 1300/X listed.

Crap, checked the order and it says "Stock problem" :mad:

"AMD Ryzen 5 1600 6 Core AM4 CPU/Processor with Wraith Spire 95W cooler' is discontinued; here are some similar products."

!!

I popped mine on last night just to see what it was time wise, I actually run 16x 1600 and do 1k in 6hours, I'd imagine half the amount would take half the time, of course my chip is running 3.9Ghz when using all threads and RAM is 3466 the higher speeds probably help it along.
 
Ah, I didn't think about CPU frequency, HCI does use the CPU cores & cache quite a bit.
I had my CPU at 3.6Ghz when I was doing the memtests.

I'd imagine they sold through all they had and then some at those prices. The tax dodgers also sold through their entire stock and are no longer selling the 1600 and 1700X directly, with the 1600X, 1700 and 1800x also all out of stock on 1-2 month estimates.

Exactly the same problem as you, bought the 1700X and this morning showing as "Stock Problem", im going to keep my order open, £228 for a 1700x, they took my cash so i want my product :) will just leave the order open til they get more Ryzen in stock and then get on their case to send my my CPU.

My guess is stock wont be unavailable for long, they are advertising that mobo + cpu with games promo as well, so i can imagine they'll want CPU stock for that or lose business.
 
Just installed a Cryorig H7 cooler...all lovely and quiet now...Seem to have a bit of an issue now.

When I booted up for the first time after installing the PC went into a boot loop like it would when the overclock was unstable, finally booted back up after the bios went back to standard.

Now when I run Cinebench all scores are low by around 100 - 200 points regardless of standard or overclocked. I haven't taken the battery out the motherboard as yet, however do you think this may help things?

Isn't that close to what the R5 1600 should score in Cinebench by default?
In reviews the stock R5 1600 gets ~1150 points with 3000~3200Mhz RAM used.

That's my point though - 3.6ghz is only @ 1070, stock is @ 1000.

I was @ 1087 stock and 1207 @ 3.6ghz.

XMP enabled at 3200mhz still.

It is down on my old scores running stock cooler by quite a bit.
 
I've got my 1700X on a ROG Strix B350-f board (latest BIOS) and just want to check my temps are ok. I have been reading that the X chips have a 20 degree offset so is that still the case? Ryzen Master and the AI Suite show idle temps of about 40C and when I did the CPU-ID Bench it jumped up to about 55C. I'm running at stock with 16GB 8 Pack RAM at 3200MHz. I've tried 2 coolers (Dark Rock Pro 3 and Panteks TC14S) and both have the same temps although I do wonder if it could be my case (Define C).

Here are a couple of screenies from various tests to show my temps at idle and after I did the CPU-ID CPU bench test. Hope someone can put my mind at ease at 40C at idle seems high to me.





 
OK all seem back to normal. Removed Battery, removed power plug, took dog for a quick walk. Rebooted, set everything back up and seems to be back to what it was:

And a quick shot of the cooler in place:

You should get around 1275 with ram @3200Mhz with good timings.

Pricing error apparently although being honoured subject to stock. Rainforest stupidly price matched, I guess they need a better algorithm.

Explains why nobody else did these price cuts. Overclockers can now sleep easy knowing these places lost money most likely.

However, AMD should take note! If they can cut the prices this far then they will clean up.

I think it may be the RAM timings effecting the score slightly, I use Nighthawk RGB and don't want to tweak much more.

Have the CPU running at 3.8ghz with everything auto and the ram @ 1.4v.

Happy with that now the computer is pretty much silent.
 
I'm currently deciding on a x370 motherboard. I've been going over this for some time and have brought this list down to the Asrock taichi x370 or the asus crosshair VI hero x370. They are two awesome boards but I can't seem to commit to either. The asrock has two m.2s with awesome placement of stuff but I'm not too sure about the asrock brand tbh and the paint design of the cog looks terrible. Also some people online have complained about doa boards. The asus one looks beastly and has more or less everything I need but it has a silly feature which is a pci on top for a wifi card that they don't include and you need to drill through io shield for the wifi antenna. What are people's experiences with either?

They do have the offset, yes, though I believe Ryzen Master shows the real temperature. Download HWiNFO64 and run that in sensor mode. The real temperature is a value called Tdie, whilst the offset is Tctl. An idle temperature of ~40 would seem a little high to me, though 55 under load is perfectly fine. My 1700X sat in the mid-20s at idle on air, even with Cool n Quiet disabled and a silence-optimised case.

Both are good board, the Asrock is better value and just as capable.

Confusing statement about the wifi and drilling, what are you on about, the PCI on top is just taking the space of the what would have been the GPU, so a wifi card would fit in a normal slot hole with antenna poking through the standard slot.

Benefit of shifting the GPU down a slot, which is probably their reason for doing it is that you can fit some monster coolers, like the big Noctua without fear of hitting the GPU, a little wifi card wouldn't go that deep into the socket area.
