Ryzen 5000 WHEAs

Whats the model for the RAM? your specs dont say

GSkill Ripjaws DDR4-3200 (3200C16D16GVKB)

Does WHEA only appear as a blue screen error?
My 5800X can't even boot properly for the supposed agesa 1.1.0.0 in which ryzen 5000 series is supposed to work, managed to boot it flawlessy using beta 1.2.0.0 (MSI MAG B550M Mortar), set up Curve Optimizer to negative 20 and running stable so far (stress test error occurs whenever i increase above 20 in the curve optimizer, but oh well, silicon lottery).

No more WHEA for my system .

Hmm, interesting, might test 1900 as well

I'm winning! So far.....maybe....

Said f'it with screwing around with BIOS settings. Downloaded and installed beta BIOS 3.85 that runs AGESA 1.1.9.0 and so far no crashing.
Oh yeah, I also enabled XMP once I installed the beta BIOS.

I played 45 minutes in DOS:2 and after quitting the game things ran fine, no crashing. Temps are solid and performance is good. I guess I see how things progress over the rest of the week.

the new AGESAs really do help a lot on ryzen

AMD just informed me that they will send a new cpu. Hopefully i have more luck this time with silicon lottery....

Got my replacement today. My old one was stable at curve optimizer+6.
New one is stable at -30. It's crazy. All core boost to 4650

since some seem to have trouble with/stemming from ram
qvl is a guide, nothing more.
i have seen multiple kits not even post on stock/jedec, and non qvl running fine, one stable past xmp settings (cl16 vs 18, 1.33 vs 1.35v)., and that was one of those "oh-dont-buy-those.." corsair veng pro rgb.

issues with post/boot after ram tweak/oc, set soc to 1.025-1.05 since a lot of boards boost it too much on auto.

and anyone using memetest for anything but checking fsulty sticks, it won't find any errors related to xmp/oc/tweak.
not one rig out of a handful was stable with any settings memtest did 4 full passes on.
get hci, i paid for the deluxe version (15$) so i can boot from stick and not run os (blocking ram).
showed errors between seconds and up to an hour, where multiple others passed (memetest no matter if dos or in win, TM5 showed only intermittent).
run to 100% for quick test when oc/tweaking, to 1000%/overnight once you dialed in the settings.

that said
ram can do 4000/cl19 and 3866cl18@1.356,
but win gives whea (corrected, bus related), lowering iIF to 1800 fixes it.
anything i can try to get at least 1933 to work?

Quoting myself for a quick update:

I've only had one crash since using AGESA 1.1.90 on this beta BIOS. Crash happened during a beta game play session of Escape from Tarkov after about 30 minutes. I then played another 45-60 minutes without crashing. Otherwise I've had a long gaming session with DOS:II and no issues. I was even transcoding a half dozen new movies the wife picked up and wanted me to add to the Plex server while I was gaming.

Whenever ASRock gets around to releasing AGESA 1.2.0.0 I'll give that a shot, but for right now things have been stable, aside from the one crash.

**Update**
ASRock has released AGESA 1.2.0.0 today. I just flashed my BIOS to version 3.90
I'll post any issues if I come across them.

I had the same WHEA errors with my 5800X, everything has been refunded so far.

Sticking with Intel and Gigabyte.

 

[Waldorf]

@TheDeeGee yeah, never a gigabyte board or gpu again.
for a +300$ board, every other bios update is unstable, and/or has cold boot issues.
never had that on any other brand in the past 20y..

Mine was an Asus Rog Strix B550-E Gaming.

I guess AMD is really hit and miss, and not worth the trouble unless you really need it for Multi Cores workloads, and got time to burn on getting it to run stable.

I'm going a different path, get a Non-K 11700 probably. Gaming wise you get the same FPS as a K model, and i don't do heavy workloads anyways. The 5800X was overkill for that, and i also didn't like how hot it ran, same with the peaky idle behaviour.

Just need atleast something 8 core so i can be future proof for 6 years.

What i dont get is how everyones experiences are so different

Outside of needing BIOS updates first (and at original zen launch that took a while) i've never had any issues running stock, XMP or PBO.

About the only thing i can think of is that here in aus, the low latency RAM is rare as hell - are you guys with all these issues running 3200+ C14 or something?
