Stress testing RyZen....What are you using ???

[Jamin280672]

Hi Guys, just a quick question, I was just wondering what people are using to stress test RyZen, ive got a R7 1700 running on a Gigabyte AB350m Gaming 3 motherboard at the moment, I gave up waiting for the MSI Mortar, all shops keep doing is changing the dates of receiving that board, anyway, so far I'm at 3.7ghz on stock volts, however, as this board has no LLC, I can see the volts are going up to 1.188v top line, and 47oC top line, on a custom water loop, ive been running a little bit of prime95 ver 28.9, and also AIDA64 Extreme beta 5.80.498 beta for RyZen, also, cant get CPU-z to open up no matter what I try, I'm running a RAID0 array and it always get stuck at the beginning when scanning storage.

Just wondering what you guys are using to monitor temps, voltages and which version of prime95 etc you're using.

I'll post some pictures ASAP.

Real Bench for at least 1 hour, ideally 4-8, with all memory used. That said, nothing beats an extended session 1-3 hours of gaming.

Thanks, my memory is running at rubbish speeds at the moment, I don't think theres any chance of that being unstable, 2133mhz instead of 3000mhz, CL14 instead of CL16, if I even try to raise it to 2666mhz in the bios, all weird things start happening, like my RAID is broken, any hard drives connected to the chipset storage are no longer seen, boot loops, Windows complaining about dodgy drivers and that's if I can even get into windows.

I've currently got AIDA64 running in the back room I keep going back in and checking lol.
If this stays solid then it will be my final speed. So far after a whole day of testing I've found this finds instability faster than realbench.
That said realbench stresses all controllers at the same time.

Which tests are you running specifically in Aida?

Which tests are you running specifically in Aida?

Stress CPU, FPU, cache and system memory.

Stress CPU, FPU, cache and system memory.

If you have system memory checked it won't be pushing it hard enough.

The Real Bench stress test or the benchmark?

 

[Jamin280672]

The trouble with tests like aida64 is a lot of memory tests are quite small and actually fit inside of the cpu cache, make sure before testing, you Goto preferences and bump up the amount to use.

I checked the task manager and it showed 16gb of ram was in use..

Ahh that's good, it's one thing I found when using prime95 blend back in the days, it used to use hardley any ram, so I used to set it to custom instead where you can specify the amount of ram to use.

Jumps us quite nicely.

Stress test.

This is the problem I'm having too good to know i'm not the only one. It seems CPU-Z has problem recognizing AMD RAID.

So far I have been using gigabyte measuring to monitor things.

I'm Starting with fast Intel burn test 1gb then movie to 4gb realbench 15 minutes. Then if that passes i'm starting big guns very high on IBT if pass 8gb 1hour of realbench. If that passed then IBT Maximum that puts cpu/memory on its knees

Tip

Try Prime small FFT

You are posting this in every ryzen thread now and it's starting to get annoying. You don't even own one. You have your own thread already just use that.

I ran IBT this morning, 3.9ghz, past 100 runs of the standard test easy, set 20 runs of maximum settings and can't get past about 8 passes yet, no point running prime until you can get through this.

@easyrider prime doesn't support Ryzen yet so no point running it at all, have you not noticed when you run it, it only does 2 passes of each test and runs tests for the K10 cpu with no avx, waste of time, no point running it.

Indeed and it hasn't gone unnoticed - Easyrider suggest you give it a rest now.

Adobe Premiere exporting video made my VRMs hotter and quicker

My experience, I ran Realbench for 30minutes. My VRM temperature was hovering around 104 degrees.

When exporting Premiere CC video with a couple of video effects, this sent my VRM 120+ degrees and crashing my system. Since this I have had to lower my overclock and voltage to get Premiere CC stable.

I have a sample project you can try here

Just try to export the default settings to H264.
