AsRock x370 pro4 Advanced boot training?

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

   Hey guys,

I recently bought another 16gb of RAM (G. Skill Trident Z RGB 3000MHz CL16-18-18-38) for my AMD Ryzen 2600 System with the ASRock X370 Pro4 MB. Now I have 32g of the same RAM, but I'm running into Boot training issues (when I am turning my PC on it beeps three short times, turns off, and repeats this for ~3 to 4 times. After that it beeps one time and then it finally starts.) The Problem is, that when it is started, the RAM only runs at 1866 MHz. The XMP setting is turned on to 3000 MHz btw. 
In other threads people talked about this advanced boot training setting, but in the uefi of my MB it does not exist. And if I Turn the Option "Fail Count" to one it starts nearly directly but to the 1866 MHz setting. I am really upset with this.

Could anybody help me? Do you have any Suggestion?

	You can try clearing the cmos settings and attempt to boot. Remember the ram may not be compatible with the original set. Best practice is buy all sticks in one package.

	I had a 2200g that could not run with 4 sticks no matter what the timing .. I had a 2700x that couldn't run 4 PC3200 sticks at their rated speed .. had to do PC2933 .. that same chip couldn't run 2 non QVL 16GB sticks at PC3000 . .had to run them at PC2866 .. once I upgraded the 2200g to a 3400g, same 4 sticks now run PC3200 .. upgraded my daughter from the 2700x to a 3600x and ram is running PC3000 just fine .. when I ran the 2700x, the same 4 sticks of PC3200 could now run their XMP profile without issue .. Running 4 sticks or non-QVL (even QVL) can be a crap shoot with 1000 and 2000 series CPU's due to the not as robust memory controller. You throw a 3600x in their and your 4 sticks will probably run their rated speed .. for now, if you want to run 4 sticks, you'll have to manually set your ram to PC2400 and then go up from their and see what your limit is ..

	same model ram doesnt mean they are they same. so you have total of 2 sticks or 4 sticks? ryzen dram calculator is the way to go dont rely on XMP @threedee 3200mhz = pc25600

	Thanks for your answers. @RLGL: I tried clearing my cmos but this only turns XMP off and starts stock with 1866mhz. Then it does not train the ram. I could try and send it back and buy a new one.. but even then it is not save that it will work. @ThreeDee: I will try that out. @gizmic: I now have 4 sticks. I never had worked with the dram calculator but I will get an eye on that. --
