reading inbetween the lines and making educated assumptions
is it in fact a better option to select ram with the jedec 2133 base/default than to select ram with jedec 2400/2666 minimum ?? or in other words is this problem with 8 sticks 128gb limited to jedec minimum sticks carrying 2400/2666 and therefore the bios cant start to initialise ? |

datonyb, I would interpret it as saying use 8 sticks (single or double rank was not specified) with 2133MHz SPD or the user owns any difficulty. If they really publish the information I suggested (lots of work), we should see the effect of rank and other parameters. In my response I asked about my specific case - 4x8 GB. Perhaps users should open a ticket for their proposed configuration. I got no feel for initialization. Thanks and enjoy, John.

Here are a couple of pictures AMD support sent with the latest reply:
Enjoy, John. |

I assume these were all SS memory sticks.... and yeah... 64GB... where this platform should support 128GB max....
I have 4x 16GB DS and on X399 I'm reaching 90% of what they can on a X370 platform (2933 vs 3200).
It's definitely not what premium (or "pre-selected RyZEN modules") feels like ...ohwell... |

Why are the dimms running at 2133? Haha feels like buying a Mercedes then putting 20 dollar tires on it no pun intended. |

SoniC, I agree, Double Sided (probably required for 16 GB sticks) and 8 sticks will, in effect, create quad rank memory load on the buss. I would suspect it may not make 2133 MHz.
JUANNY, did you see this in the AMD response:
I just noticed in the HW picture that the 4-pin CPU power connector is vacant - interesting. Enjoy, John. |

Ya I know that is their guidance but I could imagine that they would try harder to not bog down their flagship platform with such low speed ram unless it was technically not possible to support higher speeds. |

tell the smart ass to send you a picture with 8 16gb dimms then installed and working we already know 64 gb can be sorted (i do presume without a doubt you have asked about the 128gb issue ) |

I have asked about 128GB, datonyb. We are trying to set up a phone conversation and I hopefully will ask many useful questions. Thanks and enjoy, John.
