Ryzen owners - found this!

I have been using that a lot to monitor my overclocking attempts :eek:

Slightly off topic how did you find the Noctua NH-U12S compared to the stock 1700 CPU cooler, is there much of a difference ?
 
This might coincide with my occasional code 8 crashes as soon as windows loads up. Well I hope so! I will uninstall and use the stand alone version and see if my boot success improves.
 
Is this due to the sensor reading hwinfo gives a warning about when first using?

I have always chosen to not let it access that sensor.

Nope, turns out bios 1107 requires me to give my ram more voltage for a successful boot. 1.35v was sufficient until this update. Oh well.

I increased to 1.5v and then it booted a few times OK. Just to fail on a reboot.
Turns out setting PCIe to GEN2 fixes my code 8 upon entering windows.
No idea why or how or if I'm the only one but its fine now.

Are you overclocking the bus, I read that after a certain increase in FSB your PCIe is bumped down to GEN2 but not sure what the limit is, with the CH6 you can manually set the GEN for each PCIe as well as the M2 and SB (believe the latter might be related to the USB3 interfaces)

Nope, bus is at 100. Its true that the pcie does downclock after an amount of fsb increase. (cant remember the figures)
I was playing with 3600 memory over the weekend so I was indeed messing with the bus. I wonder if it hasn't completely wiped those settings?
I've reset cmos and flashed 2 more bios's since but with PCIe on auto its a cross my fingers and hope for the best.

I had a ref clock if 112.5 for a while, it seemed completely possible to set it back to Gen 3 manually and worked when booted in to windows. That was with two GPUs and two M.2 drives (one on the board).

I'm using 125 bclk, so not even going to try setting to gen 3.

I'll wait for a suitably stable bios release in future before I start fiddling again.

I think I had it at 130 at one point. But i fear that it's still in effect despite it showing 100.
This is after bios flashback. I'll try 1107 again when I get home and see if it resets.
Weird as how I've had no issue whatsoever, last 2 days i get issues and gen2 solves it.....

I have not used the stock so i would not know - but going by some reading the Noctua NH-U12S beats it and its so quite. I believe if you look at some of the ryzen 1700 reviews, the Noctua NH-U12S was used!
