Faster Ram on Ryzen gives great Gaming Performance numbers. Infinity Fabric is the key to hidden performance in Ryzen IMO.

Pretty interesting results, seems Ryzen is making the cut for games @ highest end after all!

yeah it does game pretty well - too bad some games still have issues.

It doesn't seem any slower than the 4.4ghz 5960X I use at work...At least not that I can actually see.

try fallout 4 --- for me its the only game that has issues.

Fallout 4 is the issue, not Ryzen.

When I installed Fallout 4 for the first time, my friend had me optimizing it via some special Nvidia software, before even using it - telling me it wouldn't really work nice otherwise. It's a trainwreck.

I think atm it's safe to say just bad coded games have issues with Ryzen. Project Cars is another example, a completely red cloth for AMD in general (doesn't really like Radeons as well).

FA4 had all kinds of issues on anything and everything I run it on.

Ordered an MSI B350 PC mate....hope msi works some magic on memory compatibility ASROCK sure hasn't

Memory compatibility problems are due to the CPU, not the board. Hence AMD announcing they would release an AGESA update to fix those issues... AMD isn't going to fix problems caused by a board maker.. they cannot afford to. Currently ALL BOARDS have "memory issues"

Finally, as part of AMDs ongoing development of the new AM4 platform, AMD will increase support for overclocked memory configurations with higher memory multipliers. We intend to issue updates to motherboard partners in May that will enable them, on whatever products they choose, to support speeds higher than the current DDR4-3200 limit without refclk adjustments. AMD Ryzen™ processors already deliver great performance in prosumer, workstation, and gaming workloads, and this update will permit even more value and performance for enthusiasts who chose to run overclocked memory.

I really just want an MSI board as I've always had good luck with them. Just a personal preference. Newegg didn't have anything else in stock besides the asrock. My current board list of QVL ram list nothing over 2x4gb @2400....

That's not entirely true. By now multiple reviewers blamed diverse motherboard brands to be somewhat lackluster memory compatibility wise because of inferior hardware and/or immature UEFI. That's why I always recommend Ryzen with Asus and nothing else, because I know Asus did a great job from the very beginning, and I know MSI is lackluster in that part too. How many times did I read now that "my MSI doesn't support it", and every time I see a Asus user everything is more or less fine. MSI and all the others are playing catch up now while Asus is already there.

The only ram asus works well with is Samsung -b. Everything else is just as lackluster as every other brand.

Meanwhile, I had great results with my ASRock board, with a BIOS given to be before the launch, that other brands just seem to be catching up to now. As well as what cdawall said above...

At least ASRock offers sub-timings on the Taichi; ASUS doesn't... and perhaps THAT is why I've had such luck when others have not. You do need to remember, I'm one of those reviewers that had Ryzen before the launch, although for board reviews rather than CPU review. cdawall I believe works at a hardware retailer, so has good access to parts like I do. We're playing with Ryzen every day, not doing quick once-over for a launch-day review. W1zzard took his time as well.

I don't know where I could have posted this but, I got my RAM to 2400 (yay!) on the Gigabyte GA-AX370-Gaming 5 (for those that are still rocking it).

I have the G.Skill F4-3000C15D-16GVS. Works great at 12-12-12-26 @ 1.35 volts

Thought this would help.

G.SKILL Flare X memory kit incoming today

W1zzard · Mar 27, 2017

Memory is here.

Wow I can not believe how easy that was.

Pop in memory (Gigabyte board), select 3200, 14-14-14-34, 1.35 V. Boot. Done.

Edit: runs at 1T too, automagically

G.Skill is the best. I had no issues whatsoever with running at its rated 3200 speed. Selected it in BIOS and has held it no problem.
It pays to use the right memory for the specific board.

Right memory for the board????

Specifically QVL memory. It's quite limited at 3200 for the Asus CH6. I know memory should just work but i didn't take that risk.

http://www.legitreviews.com/ddr4-me...tform-best-memory-kit-amd-ryzen-cpus_192259/6

can ya change in bios 1T vs 2T

asking because of this:
http://www.legitreviews.com/amd-ryzen-single-rank-versus-dual-rank-ddr4-memory-performance_192960/4

2 DIMM single-rank performance looks good as all the boards use a 1T command rate at all times, so it was generally higher than the same board running with all 4 DIMM slots occupied. The 4 DIMM performance numbers are a little confusing as at 2133MHz and 2400MHz the boards run a 2T command rate and then at 2666MHz that changes to 1T and that is why 4-DIMM 2666MHz DDR4 memory does so well.

Making a new article, specific to memory on 1800X.

Gonna compare a bunch of speeds+timings

I'm holding out hope for msi A-XMP.....
Also be able to touch a memory setting without having to clear cmos every time would be cool.
