Finally got around to getting a decent picture of my build. Quite happy with it now.

Beautiful! it's nice to have the power cable for the gpu way down there. Makes it really clean.

If that's a 3700X that's good!

With the more sane weather today, the 3600 is actually boosting to 42.5x multiplier whilst temps stay below 60C with PBO+AutoOC. 41x whilst temperatures stay below 72C.

Single thread continues to be 44x but hits it more consistently now that ambient temps have dropped so much.

My Sapphire Pulse has the power connectors coming out the side (when looking at the front of the case) instead of the front. That, coupled with the fact that my PCIe power cables aren't very long, means I have to have them run across the card. It means the only little bit of light in my case, the "Pulse" logo, is covered up by cables.

I'd probably buy the Dark Pro 8 Pack 3600MHz ram if I was you.

Still waiting for my 3600/CL16 RAM, so playing on 1x16GB stick at mo, even with one stick would you expect BFV to stutter whilst playing at 1440P? I was thinking on a 3900X/2080Ti combo even if in single channel the game would be buttery smooth, but so far thats not proving to be the case, running everything maxed and getting 80+FPS but game keeps hitching almost feels like textures etc loading in.

Could be the Ram, no idea other than my 3700x with vega 56 at 1440p doesn't drop a frame with 75hz monitor and is perfect. Never seen even the hint of stutter.

I've got 32GB of the 8pack 3200 memory and can't boot into windows with the xmp profile enabled :/

Have you tried stepping up slowly? So turn the machine on set XMP and set the speed to something low like 2400MHz, save and it should* post.

Back in to BIOS and up the frequency a little to say 2666MHz. Rinse and repeat in small increments.

I've had to do that with my ram.

x570 gigabyte ultra, yeah 4x8GB sticks.

Haven't tried that but i will now, cheers.

Exactly the same mobo as me mate, and I can run hyper X predator 3200 ram perfectly on XMP.

Very strange the issues you’re having. You’re using a 3900 like me aren’t you?

You tried removing two sticks to see if that makes any difference?

It definitely works. Had to do it to get to 3200MHz. But once I got to 3200MHz hitting 3600MHz was easy.

Just go up slowly and you stand a chance. That's probably all it needs.

Also make sure your on the latest BIOS.

Yeah using the 3900x too.

I had 2 8GB sticks first and couldn't run the xmp profile so I stuck another 16GB in but had the same results.

Have you changed any other settings?

Yeah using latest bios too, will try it in the morning.

Nope, none. Chose XMP 1 and away I went. That’s on two boards as well. The first died during a bios update, but both have run 3200 fine.
