Overclocking 4 Ram on X370 Gaming X

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Might want to try upgrade the bios first

1st Gen Ryzen are hit & miss in ram compatibility but are known to play nice with samsung b-die, and using 4 dimm slot seems putting strain on your system/cpu.

You have to manually set the ram timings  for them to works nicely since I have similar situation but with different ram -> team dark pro 3200 cl14 (samsung b-die)

With only 2 stick I can easily set xmp at 3200 even 3333, but with all 4 slot occupied I can get 2666 fully stable & 2933/3000 semi stable with just auto/xmp profile. I need to manually set the timing to get fully stable @2933/3000.

If you still want 32gb of ram, imo just sell the ram and get 2x16gb one (since ram price are going down now), I manage to get xmp working right away with my corsair vengeance lpx 32gb-3200cl16 (2x16)

	a few problems i can see 1, its not good to mix two different ram kits even more so for ram sensitive ryzen builds 2, you'll be considered lucky to even run 2400 with 4 sticks and why do you need 32gb of ram

But if i insert it on all 4slot and overclock it to 2666mhz or 2800mhz i only get 2133mhz. It will always reset to default speed. I even try insert only the two new ram and remove my old 2 ram and it can run 2800mhz. This means my 2 new ram is working properly. Tried also remove Cmos and Jumper. Im frustrated that my 4 ram can only run at 2133mhz to 2400mhz. Please help me to run at higher speed 2800mhz above
