How to setup my 9800X3D on this Asus X670E board properly

Dyno · 2025-02-28T05:25:01+0000

Hello, this AMD setup is my first since decades ago. I want to know how to properly setup this CPU, RAM, and Motherboard. I figured the EXPO I already, so running my memory properly. Which was the easiest thing, since we have those on Intel motherboards as XMP. I want to run my CPU 1:1. How to properly set FCLK Frequency. What it should be at. I see it as AUTO. My memory is CAS 28, 6000MHz. I already went into the memory timings and set UCLK DIV1 MODE to UCLK=MEMCLK. What is 1:1:1? Have i already done a few of them? Can anyone help me with this build?

You are good on the memory. It's in 1:1 FCLK and MCLK at 3000MHz and the FCLK is 2000MHz by default.

Thanks for the reply. So set the FCLK Frequency to 3000?

If i'm setting the frequency right for the FCLK and it doesn't boot, then it can't do 1:1, right?

Nope that is exactly how it should be
Fclk= 2000MHz 3 x 2000MHz = 6000MT/s
Memclk/uClk = 2 x 3000MHz = 6000MT/s
so 1:1

Okay, so i guess i got it tuned and setup correctly. No need to overclock since it's the fastest cpu on the market and besides with so much going around how they are burning up, i would probably stay away from overclocking this processor for awhile. It doesn't boot sometimes and that's what they also have been talking about.

When it doesn't boot sometime it's to do with memory context and retraining of ram you can try turning on memory context restore this should stop it from trying to retrain the memory on every boot
