Why did you build a RYZEN system? |

Video encoding system; mostly handbrake to e-encode video files in various formats. Also, I'm an enthusiast, and I like to experience new technology; or is this case platform architecture. This was a play system since my 4.5GHz 6600K system could do the same task, just slower.

Which CPU did you have before the 1800X?
Have you received a replacement yet? I'm wondering because I'd be interested to know if you've successfully boosted your sticks to 3200, as that seems to be a recurring issue for folks. Also, you oughta upgrade to an NVMe drive or two ;)
DOA, or did you try an update and it bricked it?
If they make enough of a splash that Intel is forced to react, it'll be better for everyone. |

I wanted a new gaming rig that would last several years, sort of like my old LGA1366 system did. I had that thing for at least 6 years. It started with an i7 930, and then I upgraded it to a Xeon X5650 that I oc'd to 185 BCLK. It's actually still a fairly decent system, but it was getting long in the tooth.
I will upgrade to the last generation of Ryzen on the AM4 platform about 5 years from now, and seeing where things go from there. I suspect I will be using this Taichi for the next 7 years or so. My current setup is: CPU 1700 @ 3900 MHz LLC level 3 1.35v DDR4 TridentZ 4000 MHz @ 3200 MHz 14-14-14-34 1.368V VDDCR_SoC 1.104v VDDCR_SoC LLC = Level 5 Edited by mysticjbyrd - 05 Apr 2017 at 9:46am |

Is "God" able, but not willing to stop evil? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God??? ??Epicurus |

I just installed some of the Flare X sticks, and they seem to be running fine @ 3200 (no BSODs yet) with the voltage at 1.35 and these settings you've mentioned on Auto. Should I be playing with those? Would it improve performance at all if I did?

lol Ryzen's new design and performance attracted me for the price... and to me, 8 cores are the future, like the same as when dual core came out, and I go where there the future is because I am a computer enthusiast, and keeping up with technology and building computers has been my hobby my whole life.
