Hi,

I'm searching for a motherboard that accept 2x16go GSkill TridentZ CL14 3200 @ 3200 Mhz.

I have that memory and a Aorus Gaming 5 X370, and the max I can do is 2400 MHZ :(

I saw here a review here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjGWqTFultI where it says Tested OK at DDR4-3200 in this board: G.Skill F4-3200C14D-32GTZ.

But I don't know if it's by ajusting BCLK or with XMP profile.

Thank you.

If Level1Techs say so, it does. They do 1st Class work.

Have you clicked More under that video? There is all the proof you need from their testing.

I've clicked More under that video yes, but like I said, I don't know if he uses XMP / ajust the multiplier manualy or if he touch the BCLK :/ I don't want to use the BCLK (or just a little) in order to keep stability.

I directly asked Asrock and they replied really quicly compare to Gigabyte !! That's a real pleasure. Even if they can't confirm this to me : 

"Based on similarities with other G.Skill modules in the memory QVL I would say there is a decent chance to reach DDR4-3200 with 2 of those modules. But it is difficult to give guarantees. It depends on the modules, the memory controller in the CPU, the BIOS (including the CPU code provided by AMD)."

I've received the Taichi, and it does not work :( even with latest BIOS (1.60).

The best I could do with 2x16go GSkill TridentZ CL14 3200 @ 3200 Mhz (F4-3200C14D-32GTZ) is 2666 MHZ.

I don't know of 
Level1Techs do to make it work @ 3200 like they said.

I tried to O/C with the BCLK to add more MHZ to the memory but since I have a NVME Samsung 960, at 105 of BCLK it freeze :(

To bad, I managed to do nothing I wouldlike to do :(

How are you setting the memory settings? Using the XMP profile, but setting the memory speed to 2666?

I saw a story about this G.SKILL kit working at 3200: F4-3200C16D-16GTZR [16-18-18-36 @ 1.35v]

https://www.techpowerup.com/231518/amd-shares-details-on-ryzen-ddr4-memory-support-and-upcoming-am4-updates

The XMP data for your G.SKILL memory and the kit in the link above was designed for Intel Z170 and Z270 systems. That does not mean it will work with a Ryzen system.

If your board's UEFI/BIOS has the DRAM Tweaker feature in the DRAM Configuration screen, use that to set the basic timings. Leave the other memory settings on Auto. See it if that works, and move on from there.

I do it manualy, XMP never work :)

I put the basic settings of my DDR4 kit :  1.35V, 14-14-14-34 and 3200 but it does not work.

I also tried 1.5V, 19-19-19-40 and 2933 but it does not work either.

The best I can have is 1.35V, 14-13-13-33 @ 2666Mhz.

I've spent many hours trying a lot of thing without success.

F4-3200C16D-16GTZR is different, it's a 2x8go kit. Mine is 2x16Go kit. It's the 16Go stick that have problem with ryzen :(

Correct, at the moment, 8GB sticks are able to run at 3200, but the 16GB sticks are having issues. You'll just have to wait until UEFI updates are available to support the timings. Don't be like me and get impatient then end up bricking your BIOS. I've been without my PC for 12 days now, with no certain ETA for my motherboard. Sounds like they aren't going to repair it and instead send me a new one.

I know but still, level1techs said that it worked at 3200 with this exact ram here https://forum.level1techs.com/t/asrock-x370-taichi-motherboard-review-ryzen-level-one-techs/113823 so i'm not very happy :/ I send back my gigabyte aorus gaming 5 for this reason but it's the same lol

Ahhh yes. Chasing BIOS releases, BETA or not, isn't all it's "bricked' out to be, is it?

I feel for ya. Yet .........
