Ryzen 3000 series support

Got my HyperX 3200MHz CL16 memory running fine with Ryzen 3600 and X470 Taichi using XMP settings. Managed even to tighten the timings to CL15 without issues. The memory kit is listed in Taichi's QVL.

That said, the cpu doesn't boost to its 4.2 GHz max clock despite temps being well under control. The closest it has gotten with the 3.60 BIOS is 4.15 GHz, but mostly it tops (briefly) at 4.1 GHz.

Other than that I haven't had compatibility issues with the X470 Taichi.

I have yet to try the X370 with my 16gb 3600 kit. It requires taking them out of
my main system so it will have to wait till I don't need it for a few hours. Over
the next few weeks that is exactly the kind of thing I will be testing for my
review

Both my kits are samsung B-Die and have just worked out the box since day one,
much to my annoyance. Naturally, my 3600 kit wouldn't work at 3600 on my 1600x +
X370 Taichi setup but I was easily able to get 3333 and even 3400 stable on it.
The 3600 kit worked at it's XMP right out of the box on my 2950x system and did
the same on the X570 Taichi. My 8gb 2800 kit works on anything I put it in, even
the most fussy systems. Enable XMP and go.

Thanks mate, nice to see you still about too

This forum may have it's flaws but it's still consistently the most friendly
forum of it's kind I know of, I am more than happy to be a part of it and will
always do my best to keep it this way

Most often when there are harsh words or arguments it's just frustration with
something not working the way it should, being able to relate helps a lot.

I got my 3600 up and running on my X370 Taichi without any issues, my RAM
however has never given me any issues from first gen to now though so your
mileage may vary. Annoyingly, I never have the same issues other people do,
when I am trying to help people figure it out that is actually a bad thing...

My x570 Taichi is still being put through it's paces, so far aside from some
memory training on cold boot it's running smoothly. I will be doing a user
review comparing it to my other AM4 boards soon, detailing my experience with
them all and Ryzen 3000.

Good luck with the new CPU mate, they are quite an upgrade from first gen

It's a relief to find this feedback. I have a Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX/ac board as well, and a Ryzen 3600 which posted once or twice when I first set it up, but never since despite going through the proper BIOS upgrade process (up to 3.50 now). Luckily I had a 1600X sitting around that gives me a usable system, but still... I already RMAd the motherboard once, and if not for the 1600X would have switched boards by now... which remains an option, of course.
