*** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

well got my replacement 1800x and im using msi tomahawk board all debug lights are off but it wont come up on display tried hdmi on m/board ,g/card any suggestions before I rma this
 
Cmos reset? Battery taken out for 15 mins? Board out of the case?
Each stick of your ram tried individually in A2 slot?
No integrated graphics on rysen so don't imagine motherboard hdmi will work. But defo try other ports on graphics/ different graphics card.

Unplug ALL USB devices and hubs. See if that helps.

When first got X370 pro, it didn't like a hub and displayed nothing

motherboard gfx are only for bristol ridge apu's (but not sure if any are shipping yet) - for summit ridge (ryzen) you can only plug into the discrete gfx card. Once the raven ridge (ryzen apu's) ship in Q3 or Q4 then you can go integrated but you'd need the new cpu too - so its too late for you really.
 
I was just curious about the voltage ranges used when everything on auto, as surely that would be an indication of safe ranges for the Ryzen chips?
Yeah I'm not sure what we're communicating yet regarding safe voltage ranges. Once i get official confirmation I'll let you know.

In my 'personal' opinion, anything 1.4v and lower is perfectly safe.

The maximum warrantied voltages are programmed into the CPU when it is made. For overclocking, we cannot guarantee safe operation as this action voids AMD warranty. A voltage of up to 1.55v can be used but requires a very robust cooling solution (liquid cooling is recommended).
 
Use a DMM ;) .

See my data in this post :) .

See also some of the screenies and info on this post , for those scenarios I have ~1.350V under load on VCORE measured via DMM.

Nah, not all that bothered about using a DMM. I will be taking a look at offsetting the voltage in later releases though when they've ironed most of it out. I'm currently settings it straight.

Regardless if you use manual or offset voltage mode, higher levels of LLC than LVL 1 will increase your VCORE above levels you think it would be. Monitoring SW may not pick up the difference.

I know when I was setting 1.381V via settings and it went to 1.465V on DMM I was like nah tone down the OC. As always it is users opinion that matters what they do, my purpose was just to share what I had seen.

As a general guideline: a CPU voltage of 1.35V is acceptable for driving everyday overclocks of the AMD Ryzen processor. Core voltages up to 1.45V are also sustainable, but our models suggest that processor longevity may be affected. Regardless of your voltage, make sure you’re using capable cooling to keep temperatures as low as possible.

Above quote is from AMD press pack PDF.

Has the 1.55V been "tested in house" with robust cooling solution?

Is there an approximate guideline that if CPU temp is xx °C you can use x voltage?

I'm currently at 3.8GHz ACB on a R7 1700 @ ~1.350V load VCORE measured on DMM, for x264, Y-Cruncher and f@h. Temps are higher end of 70C and just wondering if I should go higher VCORE if ramp cooling to keep similar temps.

Cheers :) .

Overclocking voids warranty, remember that. Cannot provide you with an approximate guideline for temp vs voltage. Best practice would be to stay below the maximum recommended temperature.

The press deck applies and is a good guideline to follow. That said voltages up to 1.55v can be used if you have a robust liquid cooling solution to keep things cool.

Maximum temperature for the 1700 is 75C. 95C for the 1700X and 1800X with the -20c offset.

OK, cool. Where did that info come from?

I want to push the chip, but don't want to kill it :)

Don't think I would go as high as 1.55v, no matter who told me it was fine :D

It came from the product manager for Ryzen.

Increasing the voltage/overclocking over stoccan shorten the lifespan of the chip, so that's why it voids your warranty and you agree to the disclaimer when opening the Ryzen Master Tool.

If you are worried about killing your chip, use stock clocks and voltages.
 
Guys how can i see voltage with cpu z? Have the latest version of it and of hwinfo? Would be nice if someone can pls tell me.
