My guess? As it Resets that tells me you have an OC setting that is way WAY not gonna work.

Otherwise it won't Reset.

I suggest you do a Battery Out BIOS Clear and begin anew.


You are right, i did a battery reset and this time it boot looped before starting.

Thanks for your help guys.


Here I too forget what I've changed in the BIOS and experience exactly what you did.

I've learned not to bang my head fighting it and simply do a battery out clear.

Good, so it's running to your liking now. For a Ryzen anyways Wink

And it does that by design.

I think it doesn't like the CL15 timings and they don't make it past the first boot check.

Never mind, for the money i'm happy with it. :)

Its running nice and stable at 3.925Ghz - 2933Mhz CL16-17-17-17

The performance is very good, the chip even with the overclock runs unbelievably cool and its very stable in this nice board.

Thanks for your help guys.

@nolive721, i'm using the ASRock system settings.



Boot training is disabled.

I'm beginning to think this board has a mind of its own.

When i disable gear down mode and save it puts its self back into Auto mode, just like the mem volts settings it will not keep the settings i input, its like i tell it to go right and all this board wants and will do is go left.

Does anyone with the same board and BIOS have any success with this ^^^

AB350 Pro 4
BIOS 4.60

to repeat above
geardown mode will disable 'odd' cl latencies and choose the next even number higher

eg cl15 goes to cl16
cl17 goes to cl 18 etc

I'm assuming Disabled nets you what you are expecting?

Bud. I have literally literally days spent tweaking my system to run 3333. No joke. Days.

I preach every system is different. Which they are.

can you share how you OC your RAM in the BIOS

thats my experience with the PRO4 and LPX RAM. I had been able to pull 3,066Mhz since Bios 3.3 and see some potantial with latest BIOS as you are also confirming

are you using AMD CBS and UMC Options to set your Ram OC at all?

Well, by having it Enabled you are allowing the "bios' to choose the settings.

Hint: Disable it Tongue
