tried method 2?
http://www.asrock.com/support/BIOSIG.asp?cat=BIOS8

I had, five times already IIRC.

Apparently, there's a new saying: the sixth time works ...

Dunno why it didn't work previously but i've successfully installed version 3.30 and then 4.80 after that. Haven't yet installed the 2600X, though.

Thanks all that contributed with the suggestions presented.

Hello there.

Will be pairing this with MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon and Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3000 32GB (2x 16 GB), which I'll probably squeeze 2666 MHz out of keeping in mind dual-rank limitations of Ryzen IMC. I'll stick to Wraith Max for the winter.

Will you also add the CPU or just the coffee mug?

Btw: which Ryzen 7, if i may ask?

God-dangit bta, you ninja-posted me, is that it how it's called in this day & age? Got it, next up - pair it with my mobo & cooling system & get it to 4.3 or even 4.4GHz stable. Just need to wait for Thermal Grizzly Hydronaut to arrive. Pics:

Rock'n'roll mother*cker, so much awesomeness overload it's not even funny, but i digress. And no, despite the cooler/HSF is all LED RGB-y n stuff, i'll just keep it for lolz, this one goes straight up under my monoblock.

In a CPU limited escenario, the jump from 3100 to 3900 is huge.
I should try and see if I can reach over 4Ghz with more than 1,45v.

2700X. You can tell from the Wraith Prism RGB graphic on the box. 2700 non-X has a Wraith Spire without the RGB ring.

 

[SIGSEGV]

I cannot lower DRAM voltage less than 1.39v but I managed to lower SoC voltage to -0.0725v (1.01 or something)

I'm not familiar with the stock cooler, tbh. Tried reading the box but the letters are too blurred and couldn't.

I'm planning to give this CPU (the 1600) to my sister but 1st i need to make sure i can install Windows 7 on it, (which i couldn't last time and why i ended up deciding to ditching Windows altogether and move to Linux). Now that AM4 platform as a whole is more stable, i'll give it another try, but i won't go back on my word: will NOT be installing Windows on my PC as a main OS EVER AGAIN.

If it all works, i'll buy her some DDR4, a cheap video card (an RX550 should suffice) and a cheap B450 board but i'll need to ask for another AM4 install kit from Noctua, unless the NH-C12 is not supported (this cooler is even older then mine), but i still have the stock heatsink the 1600 came with + the stock cooler this 2600X as well to fall back on: just need to make "a mental note" to NOT use the original paste (in the case of the 2600X's cooler). Her PC is using a 7850K APU, atm.

 

[Flyordie]

Are these timings OK for 3000Mhz? lol. I may get 3200Mhz out of it now that I have gotten it somewhat stable on the CPU side.

Command Rate is 1T.
CURRENT SPECS-
1900X @ 4,015Mhz @ 1.3325V
4x8GB DDR4-3000 @ 3,000 @ 1.35V (F4-3000C14Q-32GTZR which I got new shipped for $380 from Newegg.. (yes, its B-Die..)
SoC Voltage is 1.15V

I've been fighting for stability for a while now with this RAM kit. So far, its holding OK though since I boosted VCore up a bit more.

btw- cdawall... In case you peruse this forum area, I may pickup one of your 460s for F@H. lol. (I just wanna try multi-GPU folding to see how it'll work out on this board.. ) My folding at home stats here..

HI Everyone.
I joined the club with my Ryzen 2700x Video card is next.

 

[YautjaLord]

Just asking: Prime95 Small FFTs 2h, CPU-Z bench, Cinebench R15 & Handbrake encoding (you name for how long or which size) tests will suffice for 1st Ryzen 7 2700X video review? 4.3/4.4GHz will be my goal. Cheers.

P.S. Will probably add Hebrew and/or Russian subtitles, or actually do 1 review in 3 languages.

My method is in place small FFT 128 for ~ 2 hours the custom blend at ~ 75% of RAM for a couple hours, while blend is running I star unigine heaven on a loop windowed to include the GPU in the final 2 hours good overall testing for the system and temperature control.

@HTC the easiest way to get Win7 working on one of these systems is to download the MSI tool for it. It will add in the USB etc drivers for Ryzen and NVMe if you want on your current media. It'll put it on a USB or create an ISO. It's by far the easier choice over doing it yourself

 

[YautjaLord]

@Johan45: Will do, but with exception of Heaven - this one will be reserved for gaming &/or synthetic benchmarks (3Dmark, DOOM, etc.....). FYI: on my last run with 1700X @ 3.8GHz HWInfo64 showed the actual CPU temps (tDie) reaching 72 degrees tops with Small FFTs (2h run), for 100% CPU utilization all cores/threads this is still cools down impressively, i hope 2700X even @ 4.3GHz will be a bit more impressive as well. Cheers.

Board and Memory

Will be interesting to tame those on a Ryzen. ^^

does msi pro carbon x470 motherboard has a CPU/SoC offset voltage feature?
is that corsair LPX memory?

 

[YautjaLord]

@btarunr: Will you do the video review? And whether if you will or will not, want me to compare your results gainst mine in - say - R15 (stability test), DOOM (gaming test) & 3DMark Fire Strike/Time Spy (synthetic)? I can also throw in Unigine Superposition into the mix. Cheers.

What tool?

My board is an AsRock Taichi X370: will the tool work with this board?

It's called MSI smart tool, wouldn't be surprised if ASrock has one too just not familiar with them. Here's a link to the DL from MSI support site http://download.msi.com/uti_exe/Smart_Tool_1.0.0.36.zip
All you need is some type of Win7 media and this will slip the drivers in for you.

Oh yes LPX, not Pro. These modules are notoriously bad with Ryzens, so it will be fun taming them. I'll take a lot of help from Ryzen DRAM Calculator.

 

[Arrakis9]

I finally figured out how to overcome the max voltage slider on this stupid gigabyte board. Now I can feed my cpu 1.45v and see how high it actually clocks. You have to change the VID value in the pstate overclocking to 10 or 11 and it over rides the boards safety setting letting you apply more than 0.2v (yeah really, the slider only goes up 0.2v!)

 

[ratirt]

Well I got the 2700x like a week ago. I wonder if you guys experienced something like myself. My CPU fan stopped spinning. It's an wraith Prism. LED's are on but no spinning. Wonder if it's a common failure or I'm such a lucky dude

 

[Mayclore]

I'm waiting for 7nm now, just sticking with my super-comfy 1600X until then.

 

[TRIPTEX_CAN]

Might as well join the club. Got my 2700x 2 weeks ago. Running all cores at 4200mhz with a relatively low (?) 1.313v

I'll push it more when I get better cooling but for now I'll stress this and then if its really fully stable (more than 2h BF stable) I'll see if I can lower the vcore further and keep 4200Mhz.

have you already checked the bios (fan monitoring especially the cpu one)?

 

[ratirt]

I tried everything in bios. all possible configurations and nothing. Tried to connect the CPU fan to a different fan socket (system) but no luck. The thing is it was working fine. Then suddenly stopped.

BTW. in the FAN CPU monitoring tool i tried to go with the full fan speed or something like that but it wasn't spinnig. I've started the RMA process already.
