SOME RYZEN 7 1700 OVERCLOCKING!

yes but would you not want them bothe if you are OCing anyway?

Yes of course, I just wasn't sure if it was neccessary to use both, or of you were even supposed to have both connected at the same time. Wasn't sure if it was affecting my OC...

Anyway, as for my bus speed issues. I've managed to get it to 110mhz by increasing the SOC voltage to 1.2v but from what I've read, you shouldn't go any higher than 1.2v so I think 110mhz is the max I can increase my bus speed to :(

Currently testing my 3850mhz overclock with 1.243v. Temps seem to be leveling out at around 55 degrees

and also look on oc3d preview video of this board, he mentioned you don't need this for oc and he hasn't noticed any differences (with any previous platforms that had this extra 4pin socket)

think i worked out your temp problem, this guy has the same mobo as you and mentioned the latest bios vertion has a thermol run away issue.
 
Has anyone tried overclocking on one of the B350 boards yet? Would be interested to see if there's any reason to go X370 over a sub-£100 B350 if the R7 1700 only gets to 3.9-4.0 GHz regardless.

ive just cancelled the asrock x370 k4 board and gone with the b350 gigabyte board because it was in stock. From what i have read, the b350 only lacks a couple of USB ports and the ability to crossfire/Sli which i dont plan on doing anyway. In terms of overclocking i believe they're pretty good.

#1 what board is it specifically?Prime B350M-A
#2 what are your temps on load? Prime 66c realbench 60-62c
#3 what is your voltage?1.112v
#4 what is your ram speed and CL? 2400 c15

are you able to get your memory any faster?
because gameing responds better with faster ram, there seems to be significant scailing benifit getting to 3000 - 3200Mz

Nope system fails to boot, but I haven't really played with the ram volts yet, but in the intel system I had the ram up to 3000mhz but on this board it won't run faster than stock

Yeah it seems the performance issues with Asus and MSI boards are pulling people towards Gigabyte and they have a nice mATX B350 board available, hence my question. The only difference between the mATX and ATX models really is the extra PCIe ports, which I really have no use for on a primary desktop, so I might go mATX for my next build. Might still get a large ATX case for good airflow though.
 
My 1700 + Gigabyte AB-350-Gaming 3 are a good overclocking combo.

Using the stock cooler as the bracket for my 212x hasnt arrived yet Im sitting at 3.9ghz with 1.344 (reported) vcore fully stable so far.
Temps hit a max of 69c in stress testing but barely touched 60c when gaming.
