Interconnect them

Tubes wouldn’t be long enough to reach each other

 

[Johan45]

Damn, just run it then

 

[btarunr]

Tightened timings some more. Machine is now finally on par with reference benchmarks of 2700X measured on high-clock single-rank modules.

I'll start playing with PBO now to see how far we can go with Wraith Prism.

 

[Durvelle27]

Finally got the last piece I need to start my build. The RAM

Are there any tips on overclocking RAM

 

[GoldenX]

Use a higher SoC voltage to improve max DRAM frequency (along with RAM voltage), Max should be 1.25v, but I've never seen needing more than 1.15v. I use 1.00v for 3333MHz, might be good luck.
Don't let the voltages on auto, these motherboards use some kind of table for "stable" values, and they use too much voltage.

Be lazy, I use XMP (2400 CL16), force 1.4v on DRAM (testing 1.35v), and 1v on SoC, then bump the DRAM frequency to 3155MHz (103x30,66). Some motherboards even have a "Try" option with preset frequencies and latencies, you can use that to save time, but always recheck the voltages after changing those.

Any programs i should download

and i don't think these stick i got will be able to go that high as i'll be using 4 totaling 32GB

 

[GoldenX]

Not much, I use Ryzen Master only for vCore and multiplier changes on Windows, everything else I change it in BIOS. Maybe have AIDA64 to check memory bandwith and latency, so you make sure you are not degrading performance with too high latencies.

In your case you should really aim for lower latency even if it means dropping to 2400mhz.

 

[Mussels]

Re-jiggered the fan layout in my case, seeing 65C max load with linpackXtreme, and spikes (single core) upto 4.5GHz

 

[Super XP]

G.Skill TridentZ 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3200
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.

 

[YautjaLord]

Quick question: what track(s) should i use for benchmarks? I got all bunch of them, from ACDC to Megadeth to Alice in Chains. Might as well use Royalty Free Metal tracks, just name them. Cheers.

You might be able to do either but you're not going to go too far IMO. Just have dual rank Hynix at that speed is already good. I would start by tightening since I really don't feel you're going to get much more speed if any.

Just a little tighter.

 

[Vya Domus]

I reckon the subtimings could go lower too.

OK.
I'll play around with it later today. Ty

left this up while gaming (pubg/forged alliance)
me likey the max clocks

 

[EarthDog]

me likey the max clocks

Nice!

Was that sustained through the game or just a peak blip type thing? Are you overclocked?

Look at that 970 Pro idling at 60C.. wowzas!

peak clocks with stock turbo, low CPU temps + fan on VRMS

next up is to watercool the 1080 witgh a kraken G12

 

[Johan45]

Hate to be the bad guy but...Unless there's a special setting or you have OC'd the BCLK, that's likely a misread. The Ryzen won't typically OC past its max boost (4.35) without some type of outside influence. Try HWInfo64 and see if it reports the same.

 

[EarthDog]

That is why I asked if he was overclocking... too good to be true.

running that now

oh and the 970 wasnt idling at 60C, thats its max temp when the GPU is at full load (its under the video card) - the 49C temp there is more usual for it.

 

[EarthDog]

That's still toasty... I'd imagine we would see some throttling during sustained writes with a 50C idle (mine gets close from 39C) and surely if you are doing anything with it while gaming.

nup, the 970 pro basically doesnt throttle - unlike the intel SSD that ran a shitton hotter (70C idle) and throttled all the time

When i watercool and vertical mount the GPU (or change to an x570 board) this issue will go away

 

[EarthDog]

Its a black and white thing. Either you see it or you don't.
Either way, cooler is better.
