Go 18-20-20-20-36 and try higher clocks. Use a 1-1.15v SoC voltage and 1.35-1.4v dRAM voltage.

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

Can you post a screenshot of your bios' voltage options?

 

[biffzinker]

Looked at the manual for your board but the screenshots in the manual are of no help.

 

[cdawall]

I'll have to look what mine are. I'm stuck at 29xx with the current agesa though. Timings I'm using are good to 3400-3600ish

Will do

The BIOs itself is no help

i have agesa 1.0.0.5 not 1.0.0.6

 

[cdawall]

i have agesa 1.0.0.5 not 1.0.0.6

I have no idea what mines on. It didn't clock as high as I wanted so it frustrated me. I should be at 600pts higher on CB15 if the ram clocked correctly.

This is what i get in Cinebench 11.5

CPU @3.9GHz and RAM at 2666MHz 19-19-19-32 (32GB-4x8GB Hynix)

I just gave in on trying any higher. Just going to try tweaking timing. I know how hard it is to achieve high clocks with 4 sticks let alone 4 sticks that are dual rank.

 

[Hockster]

You should update the app.

 

[biffzinker]

You should update the app.

Ditto, update to Cinebench R15, and adjust your date/time from Oct. 31, 2018.

 

[ratirt]

I need to look how far I can push my memory modules with the board I have. Read few articles from users going as high as 3600 with these flare x modules. Maybe it would go even higher if you loosen the timings.

This is with the newer R15

I do have things running in the background though

Looks like Asus released 4207 two days ago for my Strix X370-F Gaming. Agesa 1.0.0.6 and some Radeon compatibility stuff.

Looks like I'll be upgrading from the modded 4201 to this as well. The extra tweaking features didn't seem to net me anything with the modded BIOS so no big deal to move on from it back to OEM.

Thanks. Been waiting a while for this. Almost thought theyd never get to it!

 

[Kursah]

Me too! I was relieved I refreshed that tab on my phone today...I almost closed it last week lol. Shame they don't offer some sort of email announcement for released firmware.

What does 1.0.0.6 bring

 

[robot zombie]

What does 1.0.0.6 bring

Official support for memory clock parameters up to 4000mhz with finer increments between. More timings unlocked. All around better memory compatibility and performance. Few little virtualization goodies. Probably some other good stuff Im forgetting too. It was a majorly important update, and some boards havent had it for some time.

Haha I did that for quite a while before but I gave up. Itd be cool if it would just check when you load into the bios.

 

[Johan45]

What does 1.0.0.6 bring

From what I have seen on the CHVI/II most users are getting another 50-100 MHz on RAM (samsung). IMO if you're good and stable as is there's not much to gain

 

[YautjaLord]

Lo & behold, the death is upon us. Well me, but you get my point. I present you - T1000, please welcome, Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut:

I thought it will be slight headache, but this.... What can i say, there's 1st time for everything? Bought from Newegg, always nice to know the internet store ships things to your country. Alcohol pads good to wipe out not just this TIM, but basically any TIM? Cheers. Life is good.

What @robot zombie and @Johan45 said.

Here's some reading material if you're interested, 1.0.0.6 has been out for a while, but is finally catching on, at least with some MFG's that were falling behind (like Asus):

• https://community.amd.com/community/gaming/blog/2017/05/25/community-update-4-lets-talk-dram
• https://www.techpowerup.com/233730/...1-0-0-6-supports-up-to-4000-mhz-memory-clocks
• https://www.eteknix.com/amd-agesa-1-0-0-6-update-improves-ryzen-dram-support/
• https://www.overclock3d.net/news/cpu_mainboard/amd_details_their_new_ryzen_agesa_1_0_0_6_update/1

But really robot summarized it nicely! I don't know if I'll try to push my RAM any further, but I just might to see if I can accomplish any better. Samsung b-die 3200 CL15 @ CL14 at the moment, and stable. But if I could get tighter timings, and maybe a speed bump that'd be awesome!

Honestly I am hoping to see the ability to raise BCLK to 105 w/o going into OC mode. Probably a pipe dream with this board, but I haven't lost hope yet...faded, but not lost.

I think mine maybe on 1.0.0.6 for summit ridge but since I’m just now adopting Ryzen I couldn’t even comment on the different agesa versions but I do know i’m Sad that my ram is limited to 2666MHz

AGESA versions are usually posted in the BIOS/Firmware notes. So your board is a ASRock B350 Pro4, so I Google'd that board, found the BIOS page: https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/AB350 Pro4/index.asp#BIOS

So looking at BIOS 5.10 released on 10/18/2018, it states 1.0.0.5 PinnaclePI-AM4. So doesn't look like you have AGESA 1.0.0.6 yet. You can see a previous verison, 4.90 from 7/12/2018 that released with 1.0.0.2a.

Researching what each AGESA version offers, and your MB and it's BIOS versions will get you some more answers on this. I was still learning about it when I went over to Ryzen about a month ago. The AMD link in my last post explains what AGESA stands for as well. Check it out. Good info.

You may be a bit confused. According to the BIOS page for my board (X370 taichi, in pic attached), Agesa 1.0.0.6 and and PinnaclePI-AM4 1.0.0.5 are completely different.



With my board, BIOS 2.4 brings AGESA 1.0.0.6 but PinnaclePI 1.0.0.1a starts from BIOS 4.60.

Are you talking about Pinnacle BIOS or pre-Pinnacle BIOS?

 

[ne6togadno]

x470 taichi also got bios update yesterday
https://asrock.com/support/index.asp?cat=BIOS
no clue what 1.0.0.4 patch C means
