HWinfo looks like 4350Mhz max so far

That's about where it should be, HWinfo has been the most accurate for Ryzen in my experience the author pays close attention to it. I'm not sure your X370 board is even capable of boosting past that IIRC no PBO

Has anybody tried playing around with these? I am wondering if I can possibly push them a little higher. Either tighten the timings or increase the speed a bit more.
Curious to other results. My Ryzen is currently at stock speed. It kicks into Turbo, when needed.

OK I managed to tighten tRCD from 18 down to 17, tRP from 18 down to 17 and one other from 18 down to 17.
That gave me a slight bump in performance based on the UserBenchmark utility.

I also noticed that my CPU doesn't go into Turbo Mode or Boost Mode. Does anybody else have this issue? I thought it was going into it when needed, but apparently not...

Are you still stock, no changes in BIOS aside from memory?

phanbuey · Dec 5, 2018

is your OC disabling XFR?

edit: johan beat me to it.

Yes all stock. Hmm, need to look and see if XFR is disabled or not. I'll look now and report back with my findings. Ty

I checked and everything is on AUTO in the Bios. Perhaps there's another benchmark that shows the CPU is hitting 3.80GHz boost speed. Anyhow, here's the UserBenchmark utility I ran. See how it shows 3.45GHz on average for Boost Clocks.

I love userbench

Note the intel SSD is in a PCI-E 2.0 slot, so its speed capped below its max speeds

GoldenX · Dec 6, 2018

I have my RAM somewhere over 115%. Userbench is funny.

Mussels · Dec 6, 2018

the % on the left is comparing to other people with the exact same hardware (same ram kit, for example) - the one on the right is showing an average based on your platform (motherboard)
In my case look at the intel SSD - its in the 30th percentile compared to itself, but its still 30% faster than the average on my 'platform'

Ah OK that explains it.
Any suggestion as to why I am not going into Boost Speed when running the Benchmark?

BIOS settings are the only thing that'd stop that, manually setting P-states, multiplier, or some other setting that your mobo has linked (CnQ? Voltages? Bclk)

I have CnQ enabled. And its weird, because in the bios it says the CPU vcore is 1.45v but everything is set to auto. In the section where it shows you it shows 1.35v. It also shows my CPU Temperature is 58C. Using a windows based sensor it shows the temp at least 10-12C lower.

Mussels · Dec 6, 2018

all i can think of is update BIOS, reset BIOS, test on default optimised settings

OK
Will do, though I have the newest Bios. I'll do a default settings and see what happens.

Trick is to get that number one spot on user bench. Lol

Well I tested out my Ram and pushed them further without touching the voltage. Everything else is on default. Tightened the Timings and bumped up DDR-3200 to DDR-3333.

My UserBenchmark Ram score went up to 111% versus before it was around 107%.

Johan45 · Dec 8, 2018

Looks good

Thanks,
I wonder if I should push the Ram a little bit more.

OK so I tried out some configurations with my RAM. And found this to be stable.

I tried setting the timings at 16-17-17-17-38-56 at DDR3400 but was unstable, despite booting into Windows with no issues. So I bumped up the settings to 16-18-18-18-38-56 (Default for the Ram) and its running smooth with a boost in performance.

what are people using to test ram OC? i keep finding 99% stable stuff that crashes games eventually

GoldenX · Dec 8, 2018

Just normal usage. Seems to be better that stress tests.

Loop 3dmark normally will pull most ram failures.

I agree - i've had giant excel vlooks ups crash instantly after passed 10 hour stress run... same with games, they will CTD and just do weird stuff right away.

The best for me has been to leave the box on with no crashes for a month. It's 100% stable then - even the slightest instability will show with that much time.

Mussels · Dec 8, 2018

bleh, thats what i want to avoid

the games i play arent happy with a crash and a restart, pubg is not forgiving like that

an excel 64 bit 900k row vlookup is my go to since it just shits the bed at the slightest. It'll take ~4-5 minutes depending on how many records - you can do a 20 min multirow that just hammers ur ram (it's inefficient in a good way).

Ram is so tricky to stress test properly... time is really the best tester.

I topically use gaming to ensure stability. And the UserBenchmark utility, because unusual low performance shows system instability.
