Hi all,

After a decade of hiatus from AMD, I'm back with;

Ryzen 2200g
Giga B450 Aorus M
HyperX Predator RGB 3200mhz 2x8gb

Does IBT or OCCT Linpack actually work for AMD?
With Intel I'm used to 20 runs of IBT maximum and calling it a day if it passes.

But my new ryzen setup fails IBT and OCCT Linpack even on stock/default BIOS settings.
Stock like... the RAM is running non-XMP 2400mhz @ 17-17-17 1.2v. Even that fails stress testing.

Load CPU temp is around 65~68c, I'm on AIO water so I guess temps arent the issue here.

IBT fails on the 3rd/4th run and OCCT linpack errors out around +-1hour.

It's driving me nuts and I've spent 2 days pulling my hair over this.
Unsure if there is something I'm missing or I have a lemon part.

not sure bout b450 board but back then when i was on b350m gaming 3 d board wasn't too picky on ram. may i know which 2 slots ur using at the moment? Ryzen based boards prefer d further 2 slots from cpu area.  smile.gif

other thank that, try lowest mem frequency (i believe its 2133) with auto timing.  wink.gif

Yeap, I used the slot furthest from the cpu. The mobo manual recommended it.

Previously even auto timing at lowest frequency with 1.35v or 1.4v also will fail Linpack.

Turns out..... i booted to memtest86 and one of the ram stick is tested bad doh.gif
Should have done that on day 1. Wasted so many hours/days banging my head.

After 1-to-1 swap with a working set of memory I can now enjoy.
