Latency isn't great, but you do have geardown mode enabled and quite lose timings. But otherwise good considering the price.

You mean fantastic for the price right? Taking into account that this kit was less than £75, sold as 3000Mhz cl15 and nowhere near the cost or performance of B-die sticks I wouldn't say these timing are lose at all.

Regarding latency, what are you comparing it to?

Apart from TRCDRD being pretty stubborn, which timings would you say are lose and needs attention?

My latency was ~62ns running at 3200MHz 14-13-13-28 and manually tightened subtimings with my 2700X (with Gear Down Mode disabled). A lot of people seem to get ~60ns or just under at 3466MHz with tweaking (though I could never get mine stable at that speed no matter what I tried). How much difference it actually makes to performance I couldn't say.

/edit/ Though reading properly and seeing that you're not running B-die and first-gen Ryzen, it's no surprise that it's higher. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Yeah, to be fair it is fantastic for the price, Samsung B-Die is £LOL.

I get 68ns with 3232MHz 14,14,14,14,28 on an 1800X and 3466MHz with decent timings would net me 65ns and quicker. Zen+ is quicker, so don't try and compare to that at this stage.

Out of interest, what voltages are you running?

Edit: Try bringing TRC down, should be tRAS + tRP, certainly a place to start, try tRAS + tRP + 4 to begin with. I'll export my current BIOS settings later and share, it's been a while since i've done anything with it now, all my other builds I've not bothered with.

CPU - 1.224
SOC - 1.1v
DRAM - 1.45v

I'll try bringing TRC down and report back..

I was pretty stressed when after all my hard work I saw the latency from 2600 build, but I soon realized that Zen+ is better optimized.

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

I thought as much. Im going to cancel the order and build a ryzen system using a B450 board. Is it better to buy a ryzen 5 with 8 threads rather than a cheaper 3? It will be used for CIV 6.

What's the difference in price on these builds with Ryzen 3, Ryzen 5 Quad and Ryzen 5 6 core respectively?

To future proof I would say go with the Ryzen 5. Also the 1600 is only about 10% slower than the second gen 2600 so it might be a better option to set you sights on that.

Why not just build it yourself?

I'm going to build it and buy the components separately. The prebuilt units use FSP power supplys and none overclock motherboards I guess for Warranty purposes.

I'm going to go with a Ryzen 5, not sure which one yet, I thought Intel were bad for 1 million model numbers ha! More reaserch needed I think.

Here's a dump of my BIOS/UEFI settings (ASUS CHVI).

Holy Moly Rossi~, I sure hope you didn't type all of that.. :D

Might be easier to post a screenshot of your RTC settings.

Anywho, I tried what you said regarding TRC, but anything below 50 results in a no post and no recoved either so I have to do a full CMOS reset.

It's running at 3466Mhz 14-17-14-10-21-50(changed from 56) now, so I guess that is it in regards to the primaries.

Quick question, is it better to have GearDownMode enabled or disabled?

LOL no, there's an export function, thankfully :)

Geardown disabled.
Geardown essential gives you 1.5T CAS.

Ordered a Ryzen 3 prebuilt system with a 1050ti for £690.

Cancelled this a went with the below for the same price.

Ryzen 7 2700
MSI B450M Mortar
1660Ti
8GB Ram
240GB SSD
CoolerMaster 650W Modular.

Just need to get a case and more storage now :)

Really looking forward to AMD. Not had a PC system since an original i7 920 over 10 years ago.
