What RAM are you getting/bought for Ryzen

8 Pack · 30 Jun 2017 at 21:09

For 3.9ghz sure yeah 1.4-1.45 no problem with decent AIO cooling.

Remember the stock timings of the secondary memory timings depend on IMC tolerance when training.

I'm wondering if it's this Taichi bug rearing it's head with the high stock tRC:

As I say I've lowered it considerably and it seems solid so far. Played a few games no issue. Will give it a good long memtest run tomorrow. Quality memory, the packaging is top notch too! Suprised you didn't put the 8pack branding on the top edge and not only on the sides of the DIMMS though.

Interesting...

3466 not totally stable at those settings, close but not quite. Will give it a proper tinker over the weekend.

Monday I can post all timings no problem. simple voltage increase on Ram may help if it's close to stable. You have upto 1.45v, 24-7 to play with. B- die really fine with volts.

This is the spreader Gibbo designed which they already had the lettering on the top before I got involved with the range.

Obviously for me it should be about quality performance product. These are great on Intel and AMD. The product is designed such that it fits into any system looks wise.

That would be great

I've had a play this morning and 3333MHz seems solid at stock timings and volts with lowered tRC, well happy with that.

prjwebb · 1 Jul 2017 at 12:27

I wouldn't go with 4-500% and call it stable. I've had 3466 and 3333 set ups that would get to 1000% with no errors but wouldn't make it to 2000%.

HeX · 1 Jul 2017 at 13:00

Yeah it's still running at the moment. At 3466 it was throwing errors after only 40-50%. Looking promissing though!

prjwebb · 1 Jul 2017 at 13:40

nice nice. i had 3466 throwing errors at around 800% and 3333 at around 1500%.

good luck!

Hey couple of Qs...

My board gives massive vdroop and vdrop. I can do 4ghz at 1.5 BIOS which is 1.45-1.46 idle in CPUZ and 1.4 under load. Is that too high or can I ignore what the BIOS is and rely on the actual measurements?

Also I get random fits on my gigabyte gaming 5 where it appears stable but throws an F9 code on a restart or warm boot and retrains the memory. Any idea what causes that?

Cheers!

HeX · 3 Jul 2017 at 14:41

Have you got LLC turned on on your board? That's some insane vdroop.

3466mhz stable C16-16-16 on Asrock X370 Taichi which was the board I am testing on at the moment. Key timings are TRFC and TWCL. Play with these and stability is easy.

Bit of info here. I just installed 2 x 8gb of Vulcan T force 3000mhz ram on a Gigabyte AB350 gaming 3 mobo with an R5 1600. Booted straight to the bios where it had defaulted to 2133mhz, just enabled xmp and it went straight to 3000mhz and has been there ever since. I haven't had a chance to play with rig yet, but so far all appears good, very stable, and cheap too.

What budget RAM would you go for for R5 1600 build, mobo i want to use is Asus Strix?

8 Pack · 4 Jul 2017 at 16:04

3600 Stable Taichi X370 8Pack mems.

The Corsair 16GB 3200MHz kits (CMK16GX4M2B3200C16) look to be pretty solid now on most boards, can be had for ~£130.

HeX · 5 Jul 2017 at 09:29

3466 not quite stable for me at those settings, managed to go a fair while before hitting an error, so a bit more tweaking and should get it. What SoC and DDR voltage were you using?

8 Pack · 5 Jul 2017 at 13:23

Same settings 4000% plus. £600 CL17
