Yup, I got it now. It is absolutely boiling here at the moment so getting stability is going to be interesting. I also need to get a few games to play with.

let us know how it games as i'm thinking off getting that set up for my son
Associate
the only game i have had a problem with the 1700 is DCS 2.0 and 2.5 where i had to lower my overclock from 3.9 to 3.8 (but tbh its ED's fault not the cpus) all other games no problem and happy to run at 3.9 and buttery smooth. Also a quick question, is it safe to use the LLC settings on the Gaming 5 and should i disable C6 mode?

Get that clocked as high as you can, even if you have to loosen the timings for best iGPU performance.

new bios on gaming 5 available f22 version mate, you should be able squeeze more out your 1700 than that i have my 1600 @ 3.9 and 1.3 v
Associate
Thx for the heads up buddy. she now runs DCS world at 3.9 now since i have changed LLC to high. Tbf to the chip it used to run 1.5 at 3.9 really smooth its only since the release of 2.0 and onwards that its struggled because of the massive memory leak in the sim.
Associate
no worries mate, hope you get sorted, i found on f20 i had to run 3.9 @ 1.35v but with this f22 seems be holding @ 1.3v
Caporegime
1.5 @ 3.9? is that 1.5v? there is a lot of debate of what volts are safe.... don't run Ryzen at 1.5v mate
that's too high, don't go over 1.425v.From AMD's Robert Hallock.

Sorry no DCS world 1.5
Caporegime
DCS?
Associate
Digital combat simulator. Also do I need to change the vaxg LLC. Last question, the timer in occt don't go up in order is that a problem
Caporegime
I think vaxg LLC is for the iGPU, which your 1700 doesn't have, so no.
OCCT? timer? i don't know what you mean by that, the only OCCT i know of is a stress testing application http://www.ocbase.com/ could you elaborate?

It some times goes up 2 seconds a time instead of 12345.......
Caporegime
This during OCCT stress testing?
That sounds like system micro hangs, its normal when tress testing the CPU for the system to freeze a little sometimes, that would cause the timer to skip a bit of time here and there, you needn't worry about that.
Again tho, because it cannot be stressed enough don't run the CPU above 1.425v, if you do it might shorted the life span of the CPU, significantly.
Associate
Ok cool. Yeah I know dude I try to never go over 1.4
Caporegime
I hear you, I have never clocked memory before and don't even know where to start there. I don't even know what the string of timing times on ram even mean... so I am starting from scratch. The ram is hitting 2800Mhz on the XMP profile at 1.25 volts so I am hoping that I can push it up at least a little ways.
What kind of games would he be playing?

team fortress 2, dota 2 things like that

Hmmm, the 2400G's basically intended to be ideal for that sort of stuff.
It'll be in the 60+ fps @ 1080p range for most of that, I think it's only PUBG from the "stuff that everyone plays" titles that chugs a bit.
