Dang, looks like I'll be after some new memory (matching, at that!)
Thanks for the answers
For that board you should grab three or six matching modules, it has three memory channels. You dont need to get the modules in a kit, but they do need to be the same manufacturer and model.

Hi KK thanks for the response
Out of interest I have had this PC for several years and this is the first time I am having problems, is there any reason why this could be or have I just got lucky all these years?
Thanks again
Degradation is a thing, and its possible that the 2x4gb modules were still throwing errors for the whole time but now cant even pass the POST test.
-
Different modules have different timing requirements. If you mishmash modules together in the same computer without buying reference JDEC standard speeds you WILL have problems. In which case you will have to manually find a set of timings that works with ALL modules.
That 8gb reserved on task manager means that 8gb of RAM is failing memory tests on power on, likely because the auto timings from the 2x2gb modules are incompatible with the 2x4gb modules.

The PSU checks out according to that meter AFAIK.
The -5v is optional, as nothing uses it anymore.
The other +5v and +3.3v lights are for if you are testing a SATA power plug, if you have the CPU power connector plugged in it should only show 12v.

Okay somehow it just magically works now on auto with the XMP profile. The only things i did were apply the CAD bus strength and change my RttNom value, and I changed command rate to 2T, and now it works with XMP and everything on auto. I'm pretty sure ultimately the only thing I changed was the command rate from 1T to 2T. *flips table* apparently bitching about it publicly scared it into working properly because i'm pretty sure I tried this exact config at some point as well, but apparently not? Who knows, ghosts probably. Either way the real ultimate test is if I can get it to work the same on 2 other rigs. I'm gonna go test it on the 3900x right now and see because that's the one with the same version of Ryzen master that gives you that much control (the version for Zen+ CPUs doesn't have the full refined controls), and a saved profile in case I break things
edit: Ryzen rig 2 electric timings boogaloo failed but that's okay, its still at 3000 rocking it. Chock it up to luck and call it a day, hopefully the profile sticks this time.
1800 FCLK needs higher SoC (and possibly cLDO VDDP/VDDG) voltage. Most boards will bump this up to 1.05v+ with any XMP/DOCP profile. The accepted limit for SoC voltage is in the 1.15v ballpark with an absolute upper limit of 1.2v from the digging I have done. Im not 100% sure of the upper bounds for the cLDO voltages.
Ryzen 1000 series I could never get 100% stable with 3200+, I always had to back down to 2800-2933. The system would run at 3200, but I would get a few random crashes a week. Ryzen 2000 series was supposed to be a bit better with faster memory speeds, but again you still needed to boost SoC voltaage to around 1.1v.

So far it won't run above 3000mhz at basically any timings that aren't vastly blown out, and i haven't tried anything extremely loose yet either just because at that point I might as well tighten things down at 3000mhz. The part that's weird to me is it's literally running better on a 2700x in x470 than any of my x570 systems, to the point of it being completely illogical and only needing minimal tuning to work just fine. I'm just trying to isolate what in my config might be causing the issue so I can try and get it to post at reasonable timings
Do you know what type of chips are on the modules?
My 3200 Hynix modules refuse to run at anything over ~3400 and need 16-20-20-40 to even get that far...
Some of your memory controller related voltages look quite low, this is what the memory portion of ryzen master looks like for my trash Hynix memory.
-
With 4x DIMMS you will not get rated speeds with standard voltages, if at all. And you WILL have to manually tweak timings a bit.
Ryzen 2000 series definitely will have more problems than 3000 series.
TRFC on several kits I have needs to be blown out by quite a bit.

Latency is slightly better at higher DDR4 frequencies, bandwidth is greatly improved.
Also, these charts show "IPC". DDR4 has about the same "IPC" as DDR3, but higher clocks... SIGNIFICANTLY higher clocks.

You may need to setup the RGB with its software.
-
The pump is dead or your power connection isnt providing power.
Though the CPU temp only says its 34c.

i5-9400f should be good for any GPU unless you are looking for 300+ FPS in CS:GO.
Newer big games use the GPU more heavily than the CPU. An R3 3300x or i5-9400f is good enough for up to a GTX 2080 in the majority of games.

Ive replaced the connector on the monitor and powersupply with something like a Deans connector. Works great, just need to know how to solder.
-
If something failed to the point of parts overheating on application of power, the laptop may be dead.
-
i5-9400f also gets edged out by the R5 3600 in 99% of situations.
the 10 series fixes this positioning quite a bit, but its just back to parity for the most part.

stuttering and lagging is most certainly what is being mentioned which is 100% going to be caused by a CPU bottleneck in this case since it happens in games that are known to be heavily CPU bound like Call of Duty and GTA5.
I do not have those problems in either game with that CPU. If that was the initial problem, stuttering would be present on both GPUs.
Ive played GTA V on CPUs as old as Xeon E5440s, if you dont go overboard on vegitation or pop density pretty much anything can run that game fairly well.

I guess? But if you're buying budget parts 25-75 dollars is a lot of money.
Gap is like... $15. Timings do not matter.

My bad, no price difference from 3200.

Oh. But that isn't really real world at all. They used expensive memory didn't they? Why would you buy a cheap processor but expensive memory?
3600 is actually quite cheap. 3200 can usually be tuned to run at 3600 as well, and you just need memory clock higher to raise the FCLK. Memory timings dont really matter much.

Can you link an example of this 20% increase over stock? I've never seen that before.
First, benchmarks...
https://www.techspot.com/review/2026-amd-ryzen-3-3300x-3100/
The 3300x doesnt get as much from an OC, its the 3100 that gains quite a bit.

How does that impact anything? AMD processors are effectively locked. The auto overclocking software on motherboards pushes them to their limits anyways. I personally was unable to get any more performance out of my 3900x from overclocking because the motherboard does it well anyways.
Intel pushes their CPU's similarly.
3300x has plenty of legs left for overclocking, especially with FCLK. It can pick up something like 20% performance from basic tuning.

and old, weak i5 like the 4460 is NOT a fine CPU for a 1070.. hell, I had bottlenecks with my i5 4690k overclocked to 4.7ghz with a 1070, so I know for a fact that a 4460 is not a fine CPU for that GPU.
I had a 1070 in a E3-1220 rig, it worked fine. Bottlenecks do not result in what is being mentioned in this thread.

And I just said that for all intents and purposes they are equivalent now. The 3300x = i3-10100. Both are $120. Both are 4 core 8 threads. You're acting like AMD is somehow better when in reality they offer *very* similar products. For *very* similar prices. And high end intel still beats high end amd in gaming.
i3 is locked.

Not enough PSU, not enough cooling, combo of both.
CPU is fine for the 1070.

650w is enough for pretty much any single GPU system unless you are using a HEDT CPU like ThreadRipper.
