SOME RYZEN 7 1700 OVERCLOCKING!

What CPU frequency/bios settings are you using?

I would manually configure everything yourself, start at the beginning and use HCI to verify memory stability.

Asus x370 prime pro, 1700X at default settings as not touched that yet, latest bios with AGESA 1.0.0.6a.

Will go do some reading, no idea what half the settings are as never touched memory settings before. :)
 
Hmm, I have assumed all this time that when I always get a reading 0.03V higher than I set, that the motherboard is just pushing through more voltage.

Is this correct? Or should I just go by what I set? And how does that work for offset for CPU?

E.g. PLL at 1.8V, is always read 1.83V. Ram at 1.35V in bios is generally read as 1.38/1.39V in windows...

Are you worried about power savings? Do you want your CPU to downclock at idle? If so you'll need to use P State overclocking (dont think your board has this feature) or Ryzen Master Tool.

Or you can settle for your CPU running at maximum clock speed 24/7 and overclock through the bios.
 
Seem's fine, I'm running 1.437v-1.512v. Full load is around 1.45v and light load idle goes up to around 1.48v-1.5v. Temperatures around 55-65c when gaming with my fans running silently.

I use LLC2.

Yeah it doesn't get much of a thrashing (sub 50 in games) so I'm probably going to stick with it. 4ghz c3333 14-14-14-28-50 is a nice result on a 1700.

I would like to push 3466 but not sure I have the IMC for it, board doesn't like it either. One for another time probably, suspect the tight timings help the thing out too?
 
Gigabyte are working on p-state for my board. Would this solve the risk associated with the higher voltage at idle needed to counter vdroop?

Effectively have it down clock at lower volts until it goes under load? That would be the ideal solution!
 
What are people's top tips for forcing boards to play nice with faster memory speeds?

I've tried

slacker timings
2T
gear down
ProcODT
More SOC volts (1.2)
More RAM volts (1.4 - can you go higher?)
Less CPU overclock

I think I'm beaten but 3333 isn't bad :)
 
Depends on your board and BIOS, I am using the recommended tight, low latency timings from Stilt on OC.NET for 3466 memory, I had to increase my DRAM to 1.42v, SOC is 1.15v and my core is 1.375v, with FSB 101 and x38 multiplier. ProcODT is 60ohms.
 
Remember till AGESA 1.06 the memory always ran 1T now on many boards you can run 2T which is what the XMP is rated at. Try enabling 2T if you rstruggling to do 3200mhz.

Other wise just buy the 8Pack DIMMS 3466mhz C16 so easy lol.

Is there much performance difference between the two command rates?
