" rel="nofollow - Hello. I have installed 4x8gb flare x 3200 dimms on my Taichi x399 system (1950x) and have recently noticed that it reads them as 2400. Is there a specific way to set them up that I am missing? Thank you in advance. ------------- Asrock Taichi x399, Threadripper 1950X, 32Gb G.Skill flare X 3200, MSI GTX1080, CoolerMaster MasterLiquid 240,SSD Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB, SSD Crucial CT256MX100, SSD Sandisk 480GB, HDD SG Baracuda 1TB |

" rel="nofollow - without knowing what you have or have not done have you tried entering xmp 3200 in the bios ? ------------- [url=https://valid.x86.fr/jpg250]  [/url]3800X, powercolor reddevil vega64, gskill tridentz3866, taichix370, evga750watt gold |

Right. Excuse my English. The meaning was that I haven't done anything and should I do something. So, thanks. I enabled XMP 3200 but inside windows, using HWmonitor I get G.Skill DDR4 - 2400. ------------- Asrock Taichi x399, Threadripper 1950X, 32Gb G.Skill flare X 3200, MSI GTX1080, CoolerMaster MasterLiquid 240,SSD Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB, SSD Crucial CT256MX100, SSD Sandisk 480GB, HDD SG Baracuda 1TB |

ok so in bios you need to select xmp then 3200 then go to exit page select save and exit and let it reboot it *should* reboot at normal speed into windows and show 3200 but if there is an instability then the pc will take much longer to reboot (your pc case speakker will bleep a few times) and this is a sign its trying to get the new 3200 speed and timings to work if it take more than 2-3 attempts it will give up and reset the bios back to safe/defaults (this may be whats happening to you) and then of course the pc will boot into windows with the default jedec ram speed soooooooo you need to see whats happening AFTER you select xmp 3200 ------------- [url=https://valid.x86.fr/jpg250] [/url]3800X, powercolor reddevil vega64, gskill tridentz3866, taichix370, evga750watt gold |

please install a program called cpuid or cpuz (same thing different name) click on the tab named memory it should display as 1599 mhz this will confirm if the ram is running at 3200 (ddr=double data rate) ------------- [url=https://valid.x86.fr/jpg250] [/url]3800X, powercolor reddevil vega64, gskill tridentz3866, taichix370, evga750watt gold |

Hi. I did as you recommended and it appears to be so. Weird. Thank you very much for the advice. ------------- Asrock Taichi x399, Threadripper 1950X, 32Gb G.Skill flare X 3200, MSI GTX1080, CoolerMaster MasterLiquid 240,SSD Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB, SSD Crucial CT256MX100, SSD Sandisk 480GB, HDD SG Baracuda 1TB |

" rel="nofollow - no problem mate we are all here to try and help maybe the section of hw info your looking at reports the default jedec speed and NOT the current speed ? ------------- [url=https://valid.x86.fr/jpg250] [/url]3800X, powercolor reddevil vega64, gskill tridentz3866, taichix370, evga750watt gold |
