The idle temps are just fine! The new Ryzen chips run a littler warmer and have a bit higher voltage, but that's normal for them. I pretty much get the same exact temps with the 3900x and the same voltages.

I own the ASUS ROG x570-E; it's a very nice motherboard and haven't had any problems with it (though BIOS updates are far and few between right now, but I heard that's just ASUS being slow like usual). I would agree with fasauceome. Any x570 board above or around the $200 threshold will do you just fine.

So I found out on some ASUS motherboards that they're in the process of stabilizing/releasing 1.0.03.AB.. So I guess I shall wait for that, and if I still can't get the RAM up to speed, I think I'll just return the current RAM I have and settle for 3200mhz with lower latency.

Yes I do have updated BIOS, however I'm not quite sure how I would get this on ASUS; as the versions of my bios are listed here. https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/ROG-Strix-X570-E-Gaming/HelpDesk_BIOS/ Version 7010, which is what I updated it too. I've tried looking for this 1.0.0.3.AB but can't find it anywhere? I actually see a thread with a similar problem: https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?111910-AMD-3700X-on-Crosshair-VII-board-fails-to-post-if-3200-MHz-Ram-set-over-2400-MHz Any ideas?

Hmmm. I think after quite the bit of searching; so far I am finding that a higher timing than CAS16 and above 3200mhz causes a lot of problems of setting your RAM to run as specified on the Ryzen platform? Do you think that this may be an issue considering the 3600mhz and CAS19 I have currently? Unfortunately, this is a fresh/first build of mine, so I have no other RAM and motherboards to test with. The only thing I can think of is trying out that 1.4V RAM and trying 1 stick out. I am most certain I have updated everything correctly, as I double checked the BIOS version itself in the BIOs, and the new AMD chipset drivers were released today. (This issue was happening prior to the chipset update) I still have time to put in a full refund for the RAM as I bought it only 12 days ago. Think I should try out a 3200mhz kit with lower latency if all else fails? Because I didn't get high-end RAM only for it to run at 2133mhz lol. **Edit** Just tried the 1.4V didn't work either; same goes for the 1 stick of RAM...

You actually have the same motherboard? Dude that's awesome. But yea, I hear those delays are relentless, and newegg/amazon are still out of stock on these new Ryzen Cpu's. I was lucky enough to see when newegg was in stock by browsing one day before work, then it went out just 5min later lol. Though I'll tell you it's worth the wait The 3900x is amazing. Okay, So I have tried doing what both of you suggested; however it has failed like the other attempts. Even enabled DOCP that autofilled all the information to g.skill recommendations perfectly (even 1.35V). But when I rebooted the system, it turned itself on and off 3 times in a row before reverting back to its previous 2133mhz settings. So I am at quite the loss on what to do next. As DOCP autofilled all the values correctly from what I saw. Should I just re-enable DOCP and set the frequency to 3200mhz instead of 3600mhz?

Ok! That sounds good, thank you very much! I will try to use D.O.C.P and only change the voltage manually to 1.35v as marked on the g.skill product page. This also means I can leave everything else on auto correct? Including the Frequency? Apologies if my questions are redundant, as I'm more intermediate than expert at these sort of things.

I'm using the ASUS x570-E gaming. Hmm, I am aware of that, but I thought you could get past that somehow with OC? Because Ryzen 7 2700x only supports up to 2933mhz, yet there are people getting 3200mhz. Just curious on if the same can be achieved with the 3900x. Thanks a lot for that! I don't quite know how I missed that. But question, if I enable D.O.C.P, would I still have to put the voltage up to 1.35v from 1.2? And would I still need to insert the timings manually? Thanks to you both.

Hey everyone! I have been trying to get my system stabilized after all these BIOS updates and chipset drivers, but it seems there's still some tweaking that needs to be done. Here is what I am running: Ryzen 9 3900x (stock cooler) G.skill Trident Z Royal 3600mhz 32GB 19CAS (link: https://www.gskill.com/product/165/299/1552460560/F4-3600C19D-32GTRSTrident-Z-RoyalDDR4-3600MHz-CL19-20-20-40-1.35V32GB-(2x16GB) ) ASUS x570-E Gaming BIOS version 7010 RTX 2080ti Windows 10 Pro ver. 1809 I don't know if I should be concerned that I got a 93C temp on cinebench Running CINEBENCH R20: ~93C Idle temps: ~42C to 50C Minor load temps: ~55C Gaming: ~70C to 80C Those don't seem too terrifying (though cinebench is questionable..), and voltages seem to be fine, ranging from the 1.033-1.464V on Ryzen balanced. I don't really freak out too much over the voltages because AMD_Robert on AMD Reddit has stated normal operation range is 0V - 1.5V But the biggest problem I think I am running into is clocking the RAM at its rated 3600mhz speed; as right now it is defaulting to 2133mhz. I am aware that you have to change the settings in the BIOS in order to do this.. however I have already failed twice at doing so... even prior to intensive research and such. What I did was increase the frequency in the BIOS to 3600mhz, changed voltage from 1.2V to 1.35V and the times to 19-20-20-40. What surprises me however, is that in the ASUS bios there is NO option for XMP even when I tried using the search feature to look for it.(The manual also doesn't mention xmp) So each time I tried these changes, my computer failed to start and I had to clear out the BIOS CMOS in order for it to even boot. So I am trying to avoid doing that for a 3rd time, and am asking for assistance. I have tried DRAM calculator, but it really didn't tell me much from what I saw, I have already tried those values that it showed me. Should I use Ryzen Master for the RAM timings? Many thanks.
