Since MCO I have some times to look into my pc, to my surprise my memory actually not running to it's rated speed.
Need some guidance on this as I am not really into this oc memory thingy. No matter how I tweak the setting it keep booting to non XMP speed - 2132Mhz

u got set at power saving mode?

Did not set anything related to power saving

Proc - Ryzen 2700X
Mobo - Asrock B450 Steel Legend
RAM - 4 x 8gb Corsair RGB Pro

I am also using the same motherboard. The maximum ram speed i can input is 2666mhz, pushing it above will always result bsod.

I tried working my way up from base speed of 2133, only manage to do 2933. At 3000 it still runs but sometime froze under stress test.
Am on 2700X & auto voltage.

Well, you're using a shitty board for ram oc on Zen+ combined with 4 sticks which put quite some stress on the CPU's IMC.

I guess when you set 3200 you either need to clear cmos or wait until the board decides to clear settings? Means super slow start?

Edit:
Just noticed you're the one who hitting the ceiling with 16GB last month. So you upgraded and added another 16GB of the same RAM?

yes bro - got a good deal from Lazada so might as well...
is there any chances to get the ram to clock at rated speed of 3200 using this shitty board?

there might be.
download this: http://www.softnology.biz/files.html (freeware)
and show post/pm me the screenshot for each of the 4 modules (click read header)

As follow bro :

as expected, you have 2 different sorts of dies. the b-dies should actually be better and are worth more, I suppose that's the kit you had before.
Load XMP, go into ram timing section and set ProcODT to 48, if it doesn't boot continue step by step until you reach 60. If that doesn't work lemme know.

Ok thanks for the pointer bro - gonna need sometimes on this.
Let me test see.

Actually quite easy once you find the ProcODT in your ram timing settings.
I do not have an asrock board myself so I cant guide.

Tried 48, 53.3 & 60 ohm & it won't boot. After several restarts the bios forced it back to default non xmp value @ 2133.
Do i need to set the voltage to 1.35v manually? It is under auto now.

if auto applies less than 1.35v, yes

it says 1.25v previously, so i set it manually to 1.35v

highest i could reached so far is 3066 @ 53.3 ohm
it wont boot at 3133 no matter i use 40, 53.3 or 60 ohm

i am not sure what other parameter i could play with or this is a mobo imitation

Not sure if this is helping but the task manager won't see the rated speed above 2933 :

board might not support up to 4 sticks of 3200mhz tho



so you might have to manually OC to 2933 and leave it there. Tightening the timings will help a little to offset the lower frequency.

before making it to complicated for a benefit that you won't feel most likely, call it a day. Run it at 3000(or 3666 if that works every time you boot) then, use the same values from your 2nd last post (16-18-18-36-54). This will be fine for your 2700x.

if there's any instabilities like system crashes,... after that reply and quote me.


those are rather indications than rules. his problem mostly are 4 sticks at the same time (stressing the imc of his 2700x quite a bit) and 2 different sorts of dies somemore.
because of the latter tightening timings can be quite a bothersome process with quite a bit stability testing involved which is why I said it won't be worth the hassle for probably just or less than 200MHz.

I have reverted the ProcOTD to auto, manual 1.35v & the pc boot normally @ 3066.
I think I have to live with this if it stays healthy (or 3000 / 2933 if crash), not bad from the initial pathetic 2133

Thanks much

i have this same series ram but is 3600mhz 18-22-22-42 timings
max can overclocked it to 3900mhz @ 17-20-20-40 with 1.380v, would not post after that unless loosen the timings to CL19 only can post 4000mhz... running on 9900k with gigabyte z390 aorus master mobo ... Aida64 extreme latency benchmark around 45.9ns

Same running asrock b450m on adata spectrix d41 ram 3200

Max i can go is 3000mhz

Anything above that become unstable and game crash and bsod

Mine crashed at 3k, max now in 2933 for 32gb (4x8gb). Think it stressed both the imc & mobo a bit earlier.

8x4

32GB Ram?

Wow thats alot

What voltage u set? The preset one is 1.35v right?

Someone said for it to run 3200mhz stably need to put 1.4v

Not sure if should try anot

that's right

yes am on 1.35v, not too sure if it is "safe" to go above that

for those who like me buying 3600mhz cl18 type of ram pls check your mobo if support or not, before this i was struggle to make the ram stable at 3600 but what ever i did it cant stable at 3600 i found my soc voltage is at 1.206v and then i lower down speed to 3200 and i check my soc is at 1.087v and it stable once i play around with the timing i set like the image below i just take from the thaipon burner and check from aida64 timing and wallaaaaa i get a stable 3200mhz running memtest64 and aida stresstest with no bsod or crash...

Attached thumbnail(s)

All the photos are upside down

i have the same series and im overclocked the other day , bau when i go to this page libroslara.com computer shut dows
and i looking for taht problem , i clean my pc and stil have the same problem
