Zen 2 Owners Thread!

Waiting on my delivery today, out of interest did day 0 orders get the Microsoft game pass that's now advertised on the OCUK front page ? (If so .. how ?)

Is there going to be a 3700 non x? Seems weird there is the X but no X

The R7 3700X may as well be the R7 3700. Not sure why they've confused everyone by dropping the "one non-X, one X per tier" rule (OEM chips and the original 1800X excluded).

Been trying out the 3600 today.

Under Intel Burn Test at stock the boost is a solid 4.05ghz. In my experience this is the worst load a CPU can get.

Very nice. What cooler and temps?

NH-U14S, ambient of 29C. Peak cpu temp of 71C under Intel Burn Test. So more like 65C with normal ambient temps.

About to see if I can overclock to 4.3 or 4.4ghz. Been testing memory stability for an hour as I don't have the best of kits at the moment.

Using a B450M Pro4.

Very nice, thanks.

Unfortunately looks like 4.3ghz isn't possible with 1.4v set in bios (1.35v in real life under load).

So the gamersnexus review may hold true where they required 1.43v to get 4.3ghz. The worst dies are being put in the 3600 which would make sense.

4.2ghz which is the max turbo of these chips is easy though.

Need someone to try a 3600x now.

Just got my 3900X delivered but I'll be messing around testing after I get back from the gym later on tonight.

3 possible boards to use:
AX370 Gigabyte Gaming 7 (F40 Bios)
Asus Crosshair Hero VII (2406)
Gigabyte B350 Gaming 3 (F40 Bios)

For RAM I've got the following to test with:

Team Group Dark Pro "8Pack Edition" 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-28800C16 3600MHz Dual Channel Kit
Team Group Dark Pro "8Pack Edition" 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C14 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit X2

Ryzen batch ID = BF 1925SUT
 
For those interested the 3600 at stock for Cinebench 20 gets 3708 and at all core overclock of 4.2ghz gets 3788.

Notes:
This is using 3000mhz cl16 memory.
At stock it is doing all core 4.1ghz in cinebench.

Time to move onto the 5700xt now.

I don’t suppose you took note of the batch before installing the did you?

So is that overclocked or at stock and using PBO/PB2 (whatever it’s called today lol)?

Will find out batch at weekend its coming out looking for a x570 board. Just set cpu ratio to 44 in bios with 1.375vcore still a lot of tuning to go think it will do 4.5 but i dont want to put to many volts into it.
 
Got mine installed, first run max temps hit about 68c under AIO. Will run some benchys and games later on tonight when have time. Now just need an exciting GPU to launch xD

Ryzen 7 3700X
Radeon Nano
16GB Hyper X RGB 3200Mhz
960EVO NVMe SSD
Fractal Node 804
Lenovo 1440P
BENQ 4K

Nice what memory freq are you at? 3600 makes a big difference.
 
4400Mhz 1.375v with better mem timing.14-14-14-35 3666Mhz a lot more tuning to do. Should be able to get memory tighter.

Well Micron E-Die is running well on the R5 3600, just need to mess about with it a bit more. 3600MHz seems stable, with 1.375v, and 16-20-16-35, not bad for 32GB dual rank DIMM's, at a cost less than 16GB 3200MHz of B-die 8Pack RAM :)

Very nice, hope mine can do the same! :D

Got a 2x8 GiB set from the same place for the missus. £57! :o

I'll be tweaking mine tonight.

From initial I had the same all core as yourself.
