Crucial DDR4 Pro 3200 32Gbyte-Kit finally overclocked. Not much Information on the Internet about this relatively new Kit or the Micron F-Dies for Overclocking, now i will open a Thread for Discussion about the Micron F-Die/Crucial Pro Kit. Here i'm sharing my Results after 4 Days of Testing the Stability and Values.

My Board is tricky and a Diva with the Ram and newer Ryzen CPUs with other Mainboards can get higher Values - because their Memory-Controller/Board is better. But i'm very happy with my Results.

I'm astonished with the Results, this is the first RAM with my Board that worked with 3200 MT/s stable. But the Latency are then very bad and the default Latencys in the SPD are very slow - so its to Time to overclock. Ram Overclocking takes Time, Knowladge and Patience. The Ram did not Boot @ 3200 MT/s with faster Latencys than the Standard-Values from the SPD. So i had to find the new Sweet Spot in Latency and the Bandwith for my self.

Micron advertises the new Pro-Kit for Gaming - so it must get lower Latencys then the default Values in the SPD - because they are very slow for real Gamers.

The Default Values (XMP) are 3200 MT/s with 22 - 22 - 22 - 52 on 1.2V

After Crucial/Micron stopped their Ballistix-Brand for Gamers its time to check out whats possible.

I'm happy to get it running with 3066 MT/s (1533Mhz) and 16 - 18 - 18 - 38 on only 1.3V which is very good for my Setup - because the Board is a Diva with RAM above 2933 MT/s. I tested the RAM with over 1 Hour Memtest86+ (6.20), 5 Hours Memtest86 (10.6), Cinebench R24 and some hours of real World Stress-Testing (Games). Its absolutly stable with this Values.

The Modules are Single Rank Micron F-Die and all Values, including the Manufacturing Date are in the Screenshots.


If any one got Tricks - Questions - please share it with us....

Newer CPU (Ryzen 5500) - same Mainboard with the newest UEFI flashed:

3600 MT/s with 20 - 22 - 22 - 52 on 1.35V

This Ram doesn't like too fast Timings - higher Frequencys are capable. But its okay, these are the Values with a Ryzen Gen 3. (5000 Series). This is the Sweetspot in Latency and Bandwith for me. Maybe someone finds this useful, even coming from a Google-Search. You still don't find many Information about this Ram-Kit even its one of the most selled.

Thank you for your reply, mostly this is a good Solution but in my Case its stable as it is now. This Ram is not made for Overclocking, i'm happy with this Result. And i'm happy that AMD made the AM4-Plattform so long lasting. Never had a Mainboard running so long. The Asrock-Mainboard is 8 Years old in a few Days.

Lol, it's ok. I've done the low end ram overclock thing a couple times :). If it works it works. :)
