Trouble running XMP profile

I reset the BIOS to default settings after the upgrade.

Here's my current Voltages


So I can just up that VDDCR_SOC to around 1.15 and try again?

DRAM Voltage seems to have upped itself once I loaded the XMP profile.

Here's what I tried to set in the BIOS:

(DRAM Frequency was on AUTO cos it was the only way it was gonna boot, any other settings makes the computer keep rebooting - meaning it didn't work and defaulted back to 2133)

Here's the info when I boot into windows. It looks like the everything I tried to set in the BIOS got ignored completely :(



THANK YOU for giving my advice guys.

Tell us your specs and somebody maybe has an idea.
And it is always a good idea to notify the bios settings (or making screenshots of the relevant bios pages) before updating the bios.
Did you make a CMOS Reset and loading bios defaults?

a user/pc parts dealer here in the uk has been playing with this board a lot
user = 8pack on overclockers.uk
i actually asked him yesterday about ram for this board and what he has found to work best

his reply was corsiar 3000 and team group brands
he says they all go to 2666 easily and should mostly be stable at 3000
but i would suggest rather than click the xmp
to actually try setting the timings manually
eg read the label on the stick that say
EXAMPLE cl15/15/15/35  or SIMILAR
then enter these in your bios manually dont forget to adjust ram volts from the stock 1.2volt to 1.35 volt
you may be lucky and it boot stable you may not in which case 'loosen' the timngs manually

eg if label said 15/15/15  try 16/16/16 or even 17/17/17
the higher the number the 'looser' the timings and the easier it is for the bios to try and make it work
it also may help to adjust your SOC volts up to 1.00 volts (DOUBLE CHECK YOU ENTER this correctly)
there are quite a lot of youtube vids to be found showing people adjusting the ram timings maybe watch one or two to feel comfortable before looking at yours

That makes me breath because I was concerned about that as the official asrock website said those speeds Also Im buying the X370 Killer SLI only, without ac, how do I update my BIOS, from looking at the website I only see the SLI/ac version: I guess its the same? http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370%20Killer%20SLI/index.asp#BIOS (dont want to brick it or something lol)

Both the X370 Killer SLI/ac and X370 Killer SLI boards have their own web pages, and both pages are accessible from the main ASRock mother board page. Their UEFI/BIOS update versions are currently the same:

http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370%20Killer%20SLIac/index.asp#Overview

http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370%20Killer%20SLI/index.asp#Overview

If the UEFI/BIOS updates of the standard and AC versions of these boards is done in the same way as earlier ASRock standard and AC models, the updates for one won't install on the other. That is simply a safety feature just in case one board's UEFI update differs from the other.

This means attempting to install the AC board's UEFI version on the standard version, or vice versa, will result in the update being cancelled or the UEFI update file will not be detected as appropriate for the board.

Regarding the DDR4 memory speed specifications for these boards, that is still being worked out. The Ryzen platform is far from being mature and perfectly defined regarding memory speed support. AMD is still in the process of providing updates and information to mother board manufactures for higher speed memory speed support.

Ryzen's memory speed support also depends upon the memory manufactures providing compatible products at the higher DDR4 speeds. The same thing happened with Intel's Skylake processors and chipset boards. It took a while before compatible DDR4 memory with speeds above 3000 became common, as well as the support from the board's UEFI/BIOS were in place.

Not to mention, the entire Ryzen processor line is not even available yet. Most of it is still to come.

Right now, you are all early adopters of Ryzen systems, and you need to keep that in mind and be patient. The source of all information about Ryzen comes from AMD only. AMD creates it, and passes it on. All anyone can do that is involved with it is wait at this point.
