Have you checked the cpu for any bent pins ?All seems to work fine with one RAM stick
Does 2 sticks of memory work at default speed on your its motherboard. .

You should be able to get 2 sticks working near rated speed on one board at least.Thats my next job, i'll clean the pins on the CPU and check for any bent ones. hopefully its something simple like that.
in both boards, two sticks work at default speeds. in the ATX board, 4 sticks work at default speeds. in both boards, the ram only works faster with one stick.
Thanks
What speeds was the memory running at on the b460 tomhawk and was all working fine ?cleaned all the pins and the socket with IPA, still no change. nothing but 2133Mhz with 2 sticks.
The CPU is still under warranty, My friend bought from OCUK, but is this a CPU problem?
Would agree.Well im now wondering if it was ever working fine. When i first tested it, it didnt occur to me to check the ram speed.
During recent testing, there has been some occasions where the frame rate was sort of where i thought it should be. I only played for a few minutes at that stage so i dont have any meaningful measurements, just a feeling that it used to be quicker.
Either way, there is nothing that can seemingly be done now to run the ram at the proper speed, or anything other than 2333. Two motherboards, 3 pairs of ram sticks, two power supplies... there is only one common item and thats the cpu.
ok, new CPU in (5600X) select XMP and it boots first time with ram at 3000Mhz.
Clearly a CPU issue.
Agreed. Going to try and rma it i think.Weird, Zen+ should support at least 2666. 2133 would be considered faulty out of the box.
Would recommend AMD, if you do (not retailer).Agreed. Going to try and rma it i think.
