RYZEN DDR4 MEMORY, WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!

snips86x · 29 Jun 2017 at 15:22

Should you be able to boot Ryzen using DIM slots 1 and 3?

AndreiD · 29 Jun 2017 at 15:45

You should be able to, but most AM4 mobos seem to recommend using slot 2 and 4. Check your motherboard's manual.

Same. -£80

Exact same as me. Anymore either isn't stable or not worth it because timings are too high.

I just ordered 32GB of those 4266 sticks; so 2 pairs of 16GB. Have you gotten them to run any higher with the latest AGESA update by any chance?

Before the agesa update 3200 was max. Now I'm at 3466cl14 with tight timings.

Sounds good! Glad I managed to grab these today. Planning on a Threadripper build, but they'll also be in my x99 until then.

Hi There

I recommended https://www.overclockers.co.uk/king...hannel-kit-black-hx426c13sb2k2-my-235-ks.html (the last one; now it's out of stock)

to my friend to go with GA-AB350N-Gaming WIFI mb and I can get it to 2400 only with new bios F6a. Every time I try the 2666 profile I get beeps and then it reverts to stock speed 2133. The memory HX426C13SB2K2/8 is on the mb supported list http://download.gigabyte.eu/FileList/Memory/mb_memory_ga-ab350n-gaming-wifi.pdf which got me puzzled. BTW the processor is Ryzen 3 1200 no OC yet.

Any hints would be appreciated?

What voltage are you giving the ram? 1.4V would be good.

1.35V as per 2666 profile and the memory support list...Should I try 1.4V?

Yes, 1.4 or even higher (<1.5) is OK for DDR4 memory. Try 1.4V, then you may find lowering in increments you get to 1.37V like my 3200 C14 Ripjaws.

How you finding the Ripjaws Nkata? i have 3400mhz C16 ones for my build, bought them a while ago before the info that specific types are better and i was worried that they might be a bit gash.

Absolutely fine. I did not want RGB (although I bought a C6H

). Looked for something reliable and not too expensive, at the time £145 for 16GB.

Since Agesa 1.0.0.6 they have been rock solid at spec., 3200 C14 1.37V. before then they were at 3000Mhz.

Thanks. I have tried 1.4v with 2666 profile and still no boot. I have also tried custom timings e.g. 16-17-17-17 40 1T no boot as well. It gets me puzzled as memory was on supported list.

Nice, wonder if i can dial mine in to 3200mhz and C14

Check the Black Friday section, lots of memory deals.

Link? I don't see any RAM on the Black Friday deals page.
