Ryzen Owners Zen Garden

Handbrake managed some really high temps for me when overclocking.

I use Handbrake for my stability tests. If my rig survives 45-60 minutes of 100% it's stable enough for me. That's as much stress as I ever put on it.

Despite the 76% for Game, to me anyway, it feels more like 90% up to 100% for Game.
Now running my RAM at DDR4 - 3333 at 16-18-18-18 with voltage on auto. I find this performs better than 16-17-17-17, which tells me there was some stability issues, because I keep voltage on auto.
The UserBenchmark also shows a higher score.

How did you pull those

There's an option to copy and paste for Forums. Toward the bottom of the page in UserBenchmark.

I was curious how mine would do. This is my HTPC/Gamer/24/7 machine. WOW those old spinners really drag things down ha ha

Thought I'd post something we don't see very often, benchmarking the 2400G

Have to agree. Hard Drives make a huge difference whether it be positive or negative. I'm planning to get another M.2 Drive strictly for game installations. To keep them off my main M.2 Windows drive.

Alright I got my rig somewhat together but not complete

I got it booted into the BIOs and under HW Monitor it shows the CPU @55*C. Is that normal under the BIOs as I would assume under BIOs there should be no load on the CPU.

CPU is a Ryzen 7 1700X and Cooler is a Corsair H70

 

[Hockster]

Not bad in the BIOS, there's always a small load on the CPU in the BIOS.

 

[Mussels]

power saving functions dont work in the BIOS, so BIOS temps are often quite similar to mild load

This is what it gets under Windows 10

I was testing a nice bonus on my board, an overvoltage jumper. Not needed, but fun anyway.
I have set the fans in a lineal setup going from 40º to 60º, from 25% to 100%. Most of the time I'm at 39º. Wraith Stealth, the little heatsink that could (on a 65w CPU).

Seems high with AIO watercooler just for idling but could be related to room temperature?

AIO is a H70 with a single fan

Ambient Temp is about 77*F

My room temperature is 65F, and the Ryzen 5 2600X idles at 30/35C using air cooler with single supplied fan from Scythe.

 

[Mussels]

Fan setup matters a lot with those, cold intake vs hot exhaust, fan RPM, etc all make a pretty big difference

It’s setup as a exhaust

Single 120mm fan exhausting through the rad at @1600RPM non pwn. As of now there’s also no other fans in the case but it is wide open.

Update

This is after running prime95 small FFT

 

[Johan45]

Looks like speccy might be picking up the offset. I prefer using HWInfo64 for Ryzen. Seems to be the most reliable and it's updated quite frequently

I kind of figured that or that it was outdated

So now i'm trying to tweak the RAM, currently its at 2666MHz but i can't seem to go any higher. I'm using 4x8GB Sticks that are Hynix A-Die.

Might be worth having a look at the Ryzen dram calculator that'll help you get all the timings set up and should gain you a bit of stability.

Try increasing the SoC voltage as well if you haven't already, give it a small bump and see if that helps. You shouldn't need more than 1.15v so if you haven't seen an improvement by that point try something else.

I have it

Tried using it. Settings it churned out resulted in PC not booting. Still tinkering

So far haven’t had any good results.

Ah that's frustrating :/ that might be as far as you can go with 32gb of Hynix with a first gen ryzen. Good luck though, hopefully you can get a bit more out of it

I can't even get the DRAM calculator to import the RAM data. I'm fine with 2666MHz but i don't think it's stable and the timings suck. prime95 after 2hrs resulted in 1 error

This the RAM data

Yeah that Hynix "A" is tough to stabilize from what I have seen and the fella that made the DRAM calculator focused mainly on Samsung AFIK.
Find the ryzen timing checker and maybe post your timings up. We might be able to offer suggestions to loosen a few things and get a bit more speed. It's worth a shot
