*** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

OK, got somewhere. Don't ask me how but somehow this lot worked:
Uninstalled nvidia drivers with DDU - no good
Went from bios 0083 to 1002 - no good
Installed new drivers - no good
Reset to defaults - boot
Apply memory OC - boot
Rebooted 10 times- OK
Force Gen 3 - OK
Reboot 10 times - OK
Apply CPU OC - OK
Reboot 10 times - OK
Shut down 10 times - OK
Save BIOS OC profile
Remove power plug- F9 error
Apply BIOS OC profile from USB - OK
Reboot umpteen more times - OK

No idea why or how this worked but it did. May help someone else if they get stuck in this circle of crashing upon windows loading on Ryzen.
Just to add this is NOT down to instability - these settings have been proven time and time again and this is NOT a cold boot bug. This passed POST checks and gave me a "24 normal running code" just before windows loaded and crashed.

Also note that I also tried resetting to defaults and applying my saved OC long before any of this and that didn't work.

TLDR; If your getting stuck in boot loops or crashes don't apply all OC settings in one go. Set 1 thing at a time.

I'm tired and I'm now going to bed.
 
Every day I log on forums and look at problems people got with their Ryzen platforms I'm like. Damn my build is good stable as hell. What will next bios bring i wounder. Faster boot ?? Maybe some performance boost cant see much that can improve on my build.

Your is stable due to the CH6 mobo, I am considering one myself. I was thinking of budget mobo but i think that will bite my in my ass. My last mobo was Asus Formula which costed almost as much as CPU and i didn't have any problems whatsoever.
So i think you get what you paid for.

Most of the boards are stable at stock.

First issue thereafter is getting ram speeds up.

Second issue thereafter is getting around BIOS bugs for OCing in general.

I have the crosshair. It's better in some ways than the PRime x370 pro it replaced, but at least with that board, I knew once I had a bunch of settings working, it would continue to do so.

With the corsshair I can achieve better overclocking, but then I face annoying bugs where it resets certain settings.

So the Crosshair is no guarantee of anything.

Also, using the crosshair. I've had my fair share of problems, nothing is guaranteed although my last problem seemed to be windows related.
Different memory, different IMC capabilites. There are far too many variations to make a statement like that. Although the crosshair is the best board.

like wise, I've got an Aorus K5 and booted with no Issues on first Bios version and 2nd with 16GB 3000mhz corsair ram which wasnt offically supported. Wondering if this was due to it being released later then the Current Aorus boards.
only downside is the bios is off the Gigabyte brands and not Aorus brands in terms of customisation :(

Wondering if Strix boards will mimic this being launched after CH6/Prime with a bit more development time

Indeed just reading ONC topic and all i see are people with problems. Standard ram or cold boot . TBH Coldboot i had twice maybe 3 times when it was 17c in the room

I wonder which manufacturer is gonna be first:D so that we can see what it's all about. We know it's better compatibility with majority of RAM to get 3200, but is it only this? Is it just about 2x8GB or 2x16, 4x8, 4x16. Is it also about higher clocks >3200? It will be interesting:rolleyes:

But PC with ryzen is quick enough for me even without OC ram, so I can wait:)
 
Yeah I've had no trouble with my giga board. Only niggle is being stuck at 2933mhz atm with ram, but no cold boot issues or random errors.
Overclock is solid.

That'll be the Asus crosshair. No other board has had the attention this has. Asus employees even post in the ocn thread.
 
Well, Went from an MSI Gaming Pro Carbon mobo to an Asus Crosshair and BOOM, My memory now sits nicely at 3000MHz up from 2400MHz and my 1800X sits at 4,030MHz @ 1.39v, All fully stable :) -

Indeed Elmor from Asus on OCN motherboard thread is gr8 guy. Gives hints/help to anyone asking for specific problem. Where to look and what to do on Daily Basics !!!
Yesterday HE wrote that small program to flash/fix broken SPD info on RGB memory modules so people can fix ram themselves without RMA !!!


People dreaming about 3200 memory i can run 3600+ stable no problems shame i dont have some 3600cl16 kit tho cause cl18 is tooo slow compared to 3473cl16 :P
 
My build was stable, no issues what so ever and was really happy then out of absolutely no where I got the ROM access denied error overtime I boot or restart, loads of people seem to have it with Gigabyte boards and Gigabyte state they are "aware of it and can replicate it" really annoying that the issue just appears out of no where with no changes to the system. In a situation now - do I send it back or trust Gigabyte to fix it with a BIOS update

Is your memory rated for those speeds or is it a slower kit that you've overclocked ?
