*** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

Just ran my first game since putting together this Ryzen 2600x rig - Quantum Break.

I was surprised to see all 12 threads being loaded to some degree - one or two were over 50%, but the remainder were all 15-40% too. And it did give a smoother gaming experience than the 2500k I came from. There are no more of the very slight (and admittedly only quite infrequent) <1s hitches I was seeing in this game previously. It was all a solid 60fps.

All cores boosting to 4050-4100MHz during gameplay, which seems okay for stock settings and the stock cooler? CPU temps were touching 68-70C, so it may be limiting itself a little?

I know this is hardly the most demanding game out there, but it's also one that, whilst it was running generally well on my old system, did have very occasional micro-stutters that now seem to have disappeared (though could be early days to decide this), and also as it's not exactly a new title I didn't think I'd see it loading all 12 threads as it seems to be doing. Or perhaps it is one of the games that just likes threads?

Only my first run in a game, but initially boding well for me with Ryzen.

Interesting fact, quantum break's animations were done by the same animator that did the land before time, Tarzan, pocahontas, and the hunchback of notredame, Disney movies.
Among others, and he is a great guy and my friend.

2700x is a toasty little bugger, getting around 77c max temp in battlefield 1 at 4K.

Liquid cooled? And what core ghz you using there

Under a h100iv2, stock settings. That shows max temp though it might have only flickered to it. Core temp is still buggy with ryzen as it'll show some weird 100c plus temp routinely, corsair link as well shows cores at 40c odds yet the package at 89-99c or so.

The 2700x has a 10c offset so might only be 67c which mine can hit with a Noctua D15. If it’s a true 77c then it’s a little toasty just gaming.

When I open Crew 2, before anything appears, my 2700x is climbing above 75 degrees (I know this from how I have my fan curves set). It only does this when all physical and hyperthread cores are at load. It very quickly then settles down. My point is some games seem to use all the CPU you have at points (which is a lot of CPU with 8 core Ryzen) and I do know that the temp in several games peaks much higher (77 degrees tdie in HWinfo I think is what I read, GPU maxing at 44) than when I am CPU mining (which uses 100% of just the physical cores). This, though, must be a brief peak because the fans with a 2 second response delay don't ramp up. I have 900mm of total rad length.

I don't remember temps like this when doing OCCT tests. Perhaps something is going on.

Just found my 8-Pack 3200C14 RAM will boot okay at 3333MHz, but won't even POST at 3400. I've not tested with Memtest yet, just done a few runs of Cinebench at 3333C14, so no real idea if this speed is properly stable yet, but if I want to push the RAM, what's the best procedure? Just up the DRAM voltage first? When do I know if/when I need to increase SOC voltage?

EDIT: Also passed five runs of Realbench.

For some reason my max single-core clock is higher in Realbench than in Cinebench or in games (4.225). All-core clock is also a bit higher (3.995). Although CPU temp went up to 87C! This is way too hot, isn't it? (Everything at stock except a very slight boost to the RAM speed).

1st gen Ryzen can get pretty toasty if you up the voltages enough too.
Try the y-cruncher CPU stress testing routines if you want to see what toasty really means, if you manage to get a few passes on those, you're most likely stable in any scenario.
 
Anyone know anything about the new gigabyte x470 bios F3 ? for Agesa 1.0.0.4 it says, i cant find anything explaining what it does or improves
 
my 2700x on a CH6 seems to boost to 4.5ghz but at a eye watering 1.5volts. Searched around and 1.5volts seems "normal"?!?! :eek:

70-80c watercooled

CH6 was very generous with the power...... :D

Is funny because the CPU decides what it's best of it, depending the cooling provided. :rolleyes:
My old 1800X was happy boosting 4.2Ghz at 4 cores constantly on the CH6. While the brother who has it now, says with the latest bios can go 6 cores to 4.2Ghz at 1.412v automatically
(no fiddling with the bios). Of course in both cases Predator 360 is being used.

Also make sure you have some descent ram. The CH6 can do 3600Mhz easily if the ram is rated for that speed (even on 1800X) let alone with a 2700X chip.
Make sure is of low clock latency though CL15 for example. Not CL20. Kinda pointless.

I've been trying to find info on this too.. new BIOS's have added Agesa 1.0.0.4c and the only info i have found so far is this posted in July..

AGESA 1.0.0.4c has an improvement in DRAM overclocking, at the moment AMD strives to ensure that most of the key settings work perfectly in automatic mode. First of all it concerns CAD_BUS. The values 24 24 24 24 are relevant for single rank. The release of the final bios is scheduled for the end of July.

At the moment, AMD has provided the developers of motherboards with a new AGESA 1.0.0.5. In addition to the Specter 2 patch, it is not known what it provides yet.

I've not updated my MSI X470 Carbon yet as its running fine right now.

Where is this 1.0.0.5 bios ? it's very late, 1.0.0.4 does nothing for improving my ram whatso ever, I wish there was somewhere to find out what the plans are, what ram is now supported and when the next one is out... I can only run 2800mhz max anything higher and everything goes weird, menu's freeze and dissapear in windows or random restarts, combine that with having to overclock in ryzen master (which randomly greys out all the mem voltage settngs.. :/
