Switched cpu to Ryzen 5 1400, new more stable board and still have issues with stability with this memory. I been using Corsair 2666 memory for now until i see if i can find a setting that will be stable. Have latest bios to this date. XMP reads the chips to almost 3000 mhz but do crash after few minutes.. Will try o. 1.2v at 2133 to see if gets stable. The issues with the A12-9800 went away, but the memory limitation of the cpu does not let u get faster ram.]]> Tue, 19 Dec 2017 05:07:51 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5088&PID=41346&title=asrock-ab350m-pro4-ram-problems-could-use-advice#41346 <![CDATA[ASRock AB350M Pro4 RAM problems.

I had similar issues when i used GSkill Ripjaws memory F4-3000C15D-16GVKB. PC4 2400.. AFTER I SETUP SYSTEM WITH AMD A12 APU started having crashes.. I tried different things until i noticed the voltage on the mobo said auto at 1.20 when memory said 1.35v. I changed the voltage manually and that fixed the issue so far.. I been testing games and pushing it to confirm.. This memory is supposed to be XMP and the board supports it but it seems to be finicky about it.
Asrock ab350m pro4 latest bios
Amd A12 apu
Gskill ripjaws v 3000
1 gig WD black
Evga 500 power 80+

Note. Memory soes not reach full porential on the APU.

What speed I get at a spesific voltage is all chip related (assuming good enough cooling), some just overclocks better than others.

I know I'll get 4ghz on this chip, as it held up for 10-20 seconds prime on 1.31v (1.375 set in bios)..

Actually, this is cpu belongs to a friend, mine is on the way so I hope it oc's just as good. Tongue

I also bought a couple of vrm waterblocks dirt cheap used with variable mounting, hoping it will fit this board.. Just need them bios options LOL

I have the Ryzen 1600 (non x). I cant get 3950 or even 3900 stable even at 1.39 volts. I should rephrase...i can boot into windows with those settings and run some stability tests, but invariably one of my stability tests will eventually fail.

I have my 1700 running 3.8ghz, tried for 4ghz (which this cpu is definitely capable of) but because of the severe vdroop I'm getting, I just went back to 3.8.

When LLC and Soc adjustments become availeble, I'll hit 4ghz+ for sure.

You may experience the same problem as mine.. Try setting 1.39v like you did for 3.9ghz, but set cpu at 3.7 or something thats stable and check how the voltage behave under load (use hwinfo64 to check voltages).

I'm surprised my temps are so good. I'm just using a stock cooler, but I did meticulously replace the stock thermal paste with some cooler master thermal paste I had.? I also took time to cover the entire CPU except for a small portion of the diameter.? I rubbed it in the best I could because I know its important to prevent air gaps.

Anyway, you don't have the ASRock AB350M Pro 4 motherboard, do you?? I should have done more research =(? because this board has no options to adjust soc voltage or load line calibration.? What do you mean by "core offset"?? I'm pretty sure this board doesn't have that option either.

Ha, murander...you don't need to

. You have a 'great' overclock! The rest now will be DDR4 speeds and microcode updates over time from AMD/AsRock, Microsoft/Linux updates and then general Software/Game developer updates as the platform matures.

You are off to a great start with the Ryzen 1600 that you have. The Wraith Spire is a decent cooler for the Ryzen CPU's that come with it. And your B350 supports overclocking, I checked the manual for your motherboard and right now it doesn't appear to be 'feature' rich in the UEFI/Bios(OC Tweaker Screen,that is...). But who knows, you may get more options as new Bios updates occur. Also, it is on the 'OC Tweaker Screen' that the options I mentioned in my earlier post are. My Fatality X370 Professional Gaming is heavily populated with options on that screen.

Again, great job on your OC and temps.

---btw, your temps 'inspired' me to look into my own temps. I removed and cleaned my Noctua DH-14, applied some IC Diamond(used the Noctua NH-1 previously), re-oriented two 140mm case fans for more air in my Lian Li and ran a stress test over night. 52C was the high! @3.95 Not a bad 6C turn around

In the UEFI of some ASRock Ryzen boards, the VCore option settings are Auto, Manual, and Offset. As you said, your board's UEFI does not have that setting.

When Offset is selected, another option appears, Offset Voltage. Just another way to set VCore.

VDDP is a memory related voltage for Ryzen, which is all I can tell you about it for now.

Question for you, you are using the stock Wraith CPU cooler? You said it works well for you, how did you configure the fan speed in the UEFI? Using a default profile, or a custom one you created in the FAN-Tastic Tuning feature in the HW Monitoring screen? At least I hope your board has that feature. You could also configure the CPU fan speeds with the standard options in the HW Monitoring screen
