Me.
I'll go for whatever gives me the highest clocks with at least 8 cores.

I currently have:

1800X @ 4040MHz (40x101)
Corsair H110i with 2xML120
2x8GB G.Skill TidentZ 4000C18 @ 3366MHz 14,14,14,14,28,1T
ASUS ROG CH6 (BIOS 9945)

Some great prices on 2700x. Actually tempted for one of them now. Still be a great upgrade over my 3820.

But I have that feeling the 3xxx range might do 4.9-5.0...so must hold out...be strong.

You can do it, it will be worth the wait over a 2700x , I will be selling mine and buying a 3700x or whatever one it is that is 5ghz and 8 / 12 / 16 cores .. very exciting

The newer ones are clocking really well too now that the process has matured.

Indeed I got mine really high after replacing the thermal paste and fans on the radiator as you can see in my sig, we have the same ram also, can you get yours to 3200 at cl4 timings?

Nah, you can get an R7 2700 for £187 delivered, cheapest R7 1700 is £138.

I can't find it for as low as that - but the OcUK price for the 2700 @ £278 seems insane compared to some other retailers, I just foolishly assumed it was at least close to competitive when I posted the above!

Sadly this place is very rarely competitive in price for anything other than graphics cards. :(

Whilst that does look promising, I find it almost pointless running memtest for only half the RAM for 33% coverage.

If you're going to run Memtest, at least run it for 400% coverage per thread and use most of the RAM, 850MB for 16 threaded CPUs so around 1130MB for 12 maybe.

@Silent_Scone's thread is a good place to start: https://www.overclock.net/forum/10-...-ryzen-ddr4-24-7-memory-stability-thread.html

Thanks for the info and advice, I'll do a proper run tonight.
 
Dunno about the newer 1700's but I was ultimately dissatisfied with min when I bought it on release.

It was a very poor clocker. I think it wasn't even able to hold 3.8GHz.

Too slow at stock. So I sold it.

2700x is miles better. 4Ghz out the box. Perfect.
 
Hi getting a prebuilt system for the little one. It comes with an Ryzen 3 2300x and an asus motherboard with an 320M chipset. Ive been reading bad things about this chipset.

Im interested in overclocking, but it seems its a no go using ths bios. Is there software to try get more power from the CPU?

Unfortunately the A320 chipset is locked as far as overclocking goes, even Ryzen Master has no effect.
