Find some wood and give it a knock or twelve heh?

Ryzen is very picky concerning voltages. The smaller the litho gets we'll be seeing more and more of this. Damn electrons wanting to do their own thing anyways .........

Update: I tried the XMP profile again. Now the 3200mhz XMP profile works just fine.

No failed boot attempts...and the motherboard doesn't downclock the RAM.

The only thing that's changed is I got my CPU overclock dialed in a bit better with Pstates. Could that have been it?

The RAM all of a sudden overclocking better doesn't make sense to me.]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2017 06:57:36 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5476&PID=32513&title=x370-killer-ac-boot-issue#32513 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5476&PID=32255&title=x370-killer-ac-boot-issue#32255 Author: CocoaThumper

You can yet I'm thinking it's Both memory voltages you need tweak. Try using 53.3 procODT, 1.375v DRAM, and DRAM VTT to 0.69 or 0.70 Let me know how that goes

Ill give this a try. Could you lightly explain what procODT and DRAM VTT are?

Also, I'm a little concerned overclocking the RAM voltage to 1.375 as aren't we already overclocking quite a bit when I use the rated XMP profile to go up to 3200mhz and 1.35v ?

I'm new to RAM overclocking, and it always seemed like people just overclocked as far as the sticker on the RAM told them to.

if you don't feel like messing with the settings, just choose xmp and then from drop down menu go with 2933. 2933 vs 3200 is minimal difference.

i got the same ram as yours, but the cheaper cas 16 version with hynix die and same motherboard. i can boot fine @ 3200, but it crashes when i game. with 2933 is been rock solid so far.

also, this may sound dumb..........but in what slots did you install the memory?

a1 + b1? or a2 + b2?

try going xmp @ 3200 with rams installed in A2 and B2 (second from the left and fourth from the left).

This simple fix enabled my ram to go 2933, before i was only able to go 2400.

But I used the XMP profile, and I specifically bought Gskill RAM that was Samsung B die with 14-14-14-34 timings so I could overclock to DDR4 3200 :( Any ideas on further tweaks so I can get it stable?

Yeah it's a bit of a bummer that the XMP profiles don't always work without a bit of tweaking. I'm betting you can run 2933 with zero fuss until you can fine tune 3200. I had the Tridents as well and couldn't get them to boot at 3200 at all a month ago. They're making great progress though so sometime in the foreseeable future these things won't be a problem.]]> Fri, 30 Jun 2017 17:52:08 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5476&PID=32022&title=x370-killer-ac-boot-issue#32022 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5476&PID=32016&title=x370-killer-ac-boot-issue#32016 Author: wardog

And check that XMP @ 3200 sets them to 14-14-14-34-48 2T
