" rel="nofollow - first off i would try a test with all bios /setup defaults eg the ram at 2133 etc it really could be anything this week i diagnosed a psu as faulty over the telephone (after quite a while) all software monitors were showing it very very stable for voltages and yet it was indeed cutting out the point is its very hard to diagnose some issues esp. if not right in front of you if you suspect a ram issue try running memtest in dos ? ------------- [url=https://valid.x86.fr/jpg250]  [/url]3800X, powercolor reddevil vega64, gskill tridentz3866, taichix370, evga750watt gold |

ok memtest86 came back good 4 passes 0 errors.but on my way to do that ,windows 10 updated and im good so far writing this on the ryzen pc so im suspecting it was a windows update that fixed it mostly likely.trying to crash it as we speak.

ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming K4, AM4 MoBo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZgpHTaQ10k Hey if your having trouble pushing your RAM to higher frequency, watch this video and try my method. Earlier on I had trouble going past 2667Mhz on my Ryzen 1700 using ASRock B350 gaming K4 MoBo with Corsair vengeance ddr4 3000. However after watching this video I set the dram timing manually to 15-17-17-17-35 and set the ProcODT to 40ohm and just bumped up the VDDP voltage to 0.980v to 1.1v and left the dram voltage at default 1.35v. And what do you know? It worked! Now it's running at rated time of 2933Mhz. So my final sweet-spot is 3.925Ghz CPU @ 1.39v/ But CPUZ see it as 1.328volts and DDR4-2933 with all of the settings I've mentioned above at 1.35v dram voltage. Also on CPU side, I disabled: cool&quiet, c6 mode, & global c-state control, all disabled. Now it's 100% stable.  ------------- drewster411 |
