Currently sitting at 3.7 @ 1.2v also.

Only done a quick stress test and played a few games but it seem ok at the moment.

Not tried turning off c6 state yet, not sure what it does to be honest?

My 1700 is fine at 3.7Ghz with 1.2v.

Currently sitting at 3.7 @ 1.2v also.

3.6ghz at 1.2v.. not tried going further as i've using the wraith cooler.. is it worth squeezing a bit more out of it?

 

[famas]

If you're keeping the stock voltage you can try and push it to 3.7 and see how it goes.

Like I say I've not fully stress tested this oc yet. This is mainly a gaming pc so if it passes a few hours of prime and plays my games i'm happy.
Other people would stress test for 24 hours etc to make 100% sure its stable.

Just keep an eye on your temps.

What LLC are you guys using for 3.7 with 1.2v?

I've got an AIO cooler coming this week so I will try and push it more when that's installed

Hey guys, just got my rig running and having a go at overclocking the cpu.

Its a Ryzen 1600, Asrock fatality itx board and 8pack 3200MHz ram.

Firstly I've set the ram to XMP which gets it runnig at 3200 with cl14 timings however the system boot loops 3 or 4 times before starting.
I'm not sure if I should have AM4 boot training enabled or dissabled?
I also found a setting in the DRAM settings for "fail boot attempts" Which was set to 3. I've since set it to 1 and now it only loops once but I cant get it to stop completely.

As for the overclocking as I'm on an ITX board with tiny Vrams and higher temps I'm not looking to do any thing crazy. I'd be happy with a slight overclock with out bumping the voltage up much if at all.
Currently running 3600MHz on stock volts (1.2) with voltage offset to Auto.

How far do you think I can push it on stock voltage?
Also do I want c6 state on or off for Ryzen?

sorry for noob questions I've not done any overclocking for years, last time was on my fx8320.

cheers.

I've got the same board paired with a 1700 and hitting 3.7 on 1.265 volts. Max temps 57 in gaming using the wraith cooler. Just waiting on a am4 bracket for my be quiet tf cooler which I'm hoping will bring temps down to low 50s and possibly also squeeze 3.8 (top down cooler which will help with vram)

 

[AndreiD]

My rule of thumb is 3.6Ghz will work on 1.2V and bellow, 3.7Ghz 1.3V and bellow, 3.8Ghz or higher should work on 1.35v or higher (don't go over 1.425v).
Takes some testing to find a voltage/frequency sweet spot for your CPU.

 

[Scougar]

Try increasing the ram voltage to 1.4 if you haven't already...should solve the stability issues

Far as I remember I am on 1.41v (to get 1.4).

In other news... tempted to sell my chip on even though I just got it, because I am hopeful of the increases with R2.

 

[famas]

What LLC are you guys using for 3.7 with 1.2v?

No option for LLC on my board as far as i can see.

Just have voltage set to 1.232v and voltage offset set to auto.

If it's only looping once that doesn't always mean it's sorted, it generally means it's given up training for 3200 and booted at defaults. Check you memory speed once in windows to confirm.

Latest BIOS should help particularly if you're not on AGESA 1.0.0.6

 

[famas]

It seems a bit random. Some times it will loop just once and other times 3 or 4 times.

Always boots to the right memory settings though so far.

Bios is currently p3.00 which isn't the newest but only a couple of versions old. I've been putting off flashing it to the newest bios as I've never done it before and all the horror stories of bricking the board.

 

[LtMatt]

Don't know if this is true, but FYI: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/7jt6ow/the_stilts_rtc_ryzen_timing_checker_utility_is/

 

[AndreiD]

False positive and some hysteria, The Stilt made a post here with the source code and how to audit RTC code.

 

[Gzero]

Heads up, RMA'ing through AMD is rubbish. Not even a prepaid label. Here have our Company Account number and book it yourself... err thanks but how does that help me get it sent back. And yes the rainforest sent me a replacement and it's the same week.

 

[Fishbait]

Finally got my Ryzen built when I crawled in today.
1700X, Asus Strix B350-f, 16gb, AIO yada yada.

Not changed any bios or settings yet, but first result I guess is good. Beats my other pc by miles haha.



Will boost things when get time tomorrow or some time soon

I am still experimenting with my overclocks. System seems stable (not done massive stress tests but fine with gaming, prime although haven't run for hours, cinebench and so on) but seems to crash sometimes when under no or very little load (e.g. not being used or when just doing some work in office or email). Screens go off, no blue screen and needs to be switched off and on at the PSU. All of the fans and RGB keep going as if the PC is on. GPU is a vega 64 at stock.

Any thoughts on what settings I should be looking into? I have 1600 and asus b350 board. Currently running at 3.8ghz with voltage around 1.34 using offset and LLC on the second setting. Followed a couple of guides for other settings. Anything know to cause this kind of thing?

Mine was doing that so I bumped the vcore a little and set the soc to 1.15

 

[Skidder]

I wonder if it is happening under low load because the chip is not asking for enough juice. Should I up LLC for that?

 

[nemesisuk2]

Not sure about LLC as I have mine on auto.

 

[opethdisciple]

Ran the gears if war 4 benchmark yesterday.

It showed I was 100% GPU bound.

Cpu FPS was around 230.
