So I have been looking at X370 Atx motherboards for my Ryzen 7 1700x, my price range is $230~ CAD any suggestions? Also I heard the ASRock X370 Killer SLI/ac has an outdated audio chipset, what would this effect? I am also wondering about good ram combos for Ryzen.

Hey peoples! I'm planning a new build based around AMD's promising new AM4 socket platform and I wanted to know what board would be best for me to buy for my LONG TERM (so the only one for this build) motherboard. I truly hate replacing my mobo because redoing my CPU thermal paste give me incredible anxiety lol Im between the Crosshair VI and the Taichi. Or maybe there is a better board than both coming out soon that I haven't heard of? Would love that info too! I built an editing rig for my special lady friend and I chose the ASRock Taichi, as it seemed to be the best value (and buildzoid had great reviews on it). Or maybe I should hold off until 2018 and wait for any new MoBos coming out with the ryzen zen2 chips? I'd like to move on this build soon so I'd love honest input from anyone and everyone! Thanks guys! -
So. I have a problem with my Ryzen 7 1700, my Asus C6H and the kit F4-3200C14D-16GFX. I cannot get pass and training, it always gives me an F9 error and defaults the ram to 2400 16-16-16-16-39. I have used the profiles, done manual settings (14-14-14-14-34 and even 48 with and without it) set to 1T, disabled power down and gear down mode (tried them both ways), set my volts to 1.35 (reg and boot), and adjusted the CBS options too. It always gives me an F9 error and never sets to 3200 14-14-14-14-34 1.35v. Before I forget I set ProcODT to 60 (once only in CBS then also on mem tweaks). So, this is what I been playing with: Set my AI OC tuner to manual Mem Freq: DDR4-3200 DRAM V: 1.35 -Also set the Boot V to 1.35 in External Digi+ Power Control Set my timings manually to: 14-14-14-14-34-48 (tried trc_sm both in auto and 48) Set my cmd2T to 1T AMD CBS ProcODT to 60 & Fail_CNT to 4 to make sure it gets enough attempts. I don't know what else to try since I followed most of the advice most ppl have given me. I am just thinking is the 1700 mem controller at this point. Any advice peeps ? Edit 1: I am on the latest bios posted in the Asus website, 1403 (AGESA code to 1.0.0.6), totally forgot to mention that. -
Which temp is correct...I performed a Aida64 stress test and got 2 conflicting numbers, which ones are correct. Aida64 and Gigabyte Sys Info Viewer say 54C and Ryzen Master and HWMonitor say 64C. Im running a Ryzen 1700 on a Gigabyte x370 K7 board

Hey guys, so when I overclock my ryzen 5 1600x on my asrock x370 gaming k4 (atx) motherboard, it sticks to a fixed frequency. It doesn't drop the frequency when idle and it doesn't boost any higher with xfr and precision boost. Is there a way to overclock and achieve this. Thanks in advance

Hello Guys, I am building an about 850€ Ryzen Gaming and Content Creation Computer. I chose the 1600, because I can Overclock it to about 1600X performance. But what about Memory and Motherboard? The Basic Choice for Motherboards is X370 or B350. Because there will be no SLI/Crossfire, X370 is simply not needed (as far as I know that is, with some additional connectivity the only advantage of X370 over B350). But what is the best B350 Motherboard for at most 125€? I was thinking about either a MSI B350 Gaming Plus or a Asus Prime B350 Plus, but are there better options? Maybe even with RGB(the case as is a MasterBoxLite 5, so windowed on one side) like the Strix B350-F Gaming? (More important than RGB on the board might be a RGB Connector for later RGB Stripes. Same goes for RAM. I will propably use 16 gB, that feels like the sweetpoint right now if you are doing gaming and editing/Content Creation. But my question now is: What Brand is good, how fast should it be and do I have to choose something like FlareX that is branded for Ryzen? I was thinking about G.Skill FlareX 2400 mHz. Sincerely Heulboje21/PaulG

Hi all - I'm looking for some advice on purchasing an X370 motherboard for an upcoming Ryzen 7 (1700) build. I'm looking to OC the CPU and RAM to 4GHz/3200MHz respectively and know that a board can be a crucial part of the OC'ing puzzle, silicon lottery nonwithstanding. My motherboard budget is up to about $250, and I'm trying to stick to one of the following brands: MSI, Asus, ASRock, Gigabyte. After a bit of research, I've narrowed it down to three boards - the MSI boards were not very well praised online from what I gathered so I haven't done much research into their offerings: ASRock Fatal1ty X370 Professional: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157756 Gigabyte AORUS GA-AX270-Gaming K7: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128997 Asus ROG Crosshair VI Hero: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132963 Any advice would be appreciated. I'm not dead-set on these makes/models, I'm mainly looking for advice or options on boards that will (hopefully) provide stable OC'ing for RAM and CPU while also being stable and having an assortment of fairly standard ports/functions (m.2 support, adequate power delivery, granularity of BIOS manipulation for OC'ing). Thanks in advance! -
Hello there! I recently picked up an X370 Taichi along with my 1700. Now that I've assembled everything inside my case and set it up on my desk, I've noticed a couple of things: 1) the motherboard always supplies power to its USB ports (which in itself isn't bad but in my case I have an LED-strip connected to it and I'd like that to turn off along with my PC) 2) the lighting beneath the southbridge cooler always stays on as well (edit: doesn't seem to be the case anymore) I already tried enabling "deep sleep" in the BIOS and playing around with various USB power settings in Windows but so far to no effect. There aren't any apparent direct USB power options in the BIOS (say for example like on my old Gigabyte board where it would just say "Supply power to USB when shut off: disabled" or something along those lines). Of course I can simply switch off the PSU on the back of my PC to solve these "issues" but that just feels like a workaround tbh, since I'm sure that there are options for these somewhere in the BIOS. Does somebody happen to know anything else I could try out? I'll be gone at work for the day so I won't be able to try stuff out immediately, though I will be able to respond to further questions and such. I hope somebody can help me Thanks in advance! -
Still having hard time to choose what Mobo and RAM to go with my 1700X. ( Even though I've been delaying my build for Months now ) Was wondering mind you guys share your experience with your X370 boards or boards you had use that maybe I should avoid ? And RAM, I hear many different stories on which is the best RAM for RyZen / X370....an article claimed that any RAM that's using Samsung B Chip or something like that it's the best for RyZen / X370. So what RAM are you guys using ? At what speed ? What Timing ? Do you think I will run into issues if I pair two separate kits during future upgrade ? Like for now I think I will only get a 16GB Kit ( 2X8GB ) what if I add another kit in future with the same specs ? Some said it will cause issues or you will have to lower your speed if you run 4X sticks of RAM. Some said it depends on the RAM, someone did this with Trident-Z RGB / Flare-X and it ran without issues. But he couldn't do it with Corsair Vengeance LPX.

I have a 1700 with an ASUS x370-F Gaming MB and for some reason when I try to OC to 3.8 GHz at 1.4v (really any voltage at or below 1.4v) it boots fine and then I load up CPUz and it shows I'm at 1550MHz. I have (somehow) OCed to 3.7 GHz and been fine at 1.3875v. I didn't try to lower the voltage because I just go the PC and wanted to play some games and it was stable. I would like to know how to get past 1.5 GHz I looked for C-6 states and couldn't find it anywhere. What do I do to get an OC to stick. I noticed that when I boot into BIOS after shutting down the system from a "failed OC" the MB says that I am OCed with what I put in. Im so confused.

Hi, I'm planning to build a new pc, but I need to know if the RAM I chose is compatible with my motherboard: Motherboard: AsRock x370 Taichi RAM: G.SKILL Trident Z RGB ddr4 3600MHz CPU: Ryzen 7 1700 The problem is that I read the motherboard specs and they say that supports 3200+ (OC), so, can I use a 3600? I don't think so Then I chose the 3200MHz version of the same model, but then I saw this on the asrock website: Reading this seems that the maximum supported RAM frequency is way less then 3200 Than I also found this, where there is a big gap between 2400 and 3200 What RAM should I buy?

So i tried to update my Bios and ended up with Windows automatic repair loop. I downloaded the latest bios update from MSI and am certain that was the right mobo. Any tips? Specs MSI X370 Gaming Pro Ryzen 7 1800x Windows 10 Ultimate MSI GTX 1070

I got an ASUS prime x370 pro a month ago. I'm trying to build an inexpensive but powerful rig. It's going to be for scientific computing and gaming. I want both high single precision GFLOP and high double precision GFLOP. Any decent card from Nvidia or AMD developed in the last year or two has huge single precision GFLOP (the RX 580 does something like 6.1 TFLOP). Game developers don't seem to use a lot of double precision variables, which I don't get, but whatever. You have to get a gpgpu to build something useful for modern scientific computing. That means an Nvidia Tesla or an AMD FireStream. I found an awesome deal on some old Tesla k20 cards. Plugging these into the x370pro was a complete bust. I did what I could, and went back and forth with ASUS support for 2+ weeks. They twice referred my case to the "engineers". I hoped the "engineers" were poly-dimensional beings ASUS had captured and harnessed to do their bidding. If so, you can tell they don't want to be there. The interchange between me and ASUS boils down to: Me: "Doctor ASUS, I can't move my arm! What should I do?" Doctor ASUS: "Did you try moving your arm? .... if that doesn't work check if your arm is on the QVL; if not, your arm must not be compatible with your body." Me: "Seriously? Not being able to move my arm was the problem. It can't be the solution. And, your QVL only lists a left arm from a 3-year old." Doctor ASUS: "Thanks for coming. How was your visit?" Me: "I just told you. [repeats above]. I think your poly-dimensional being ignored me." Doctor ASUS: "That terrible. I'm going to give this to some of our other poly-dimensional beings for thorough review." ... Me: "Doctor ASUS? Are you there? Any word from Cthulhu and pals?" Doctor ASUS: "Did you try moving your arm? .... if that doesn't work check if your arm is on the QVL; if not, your arm must not be compatible with your body." I gave up on ASUS support. I got a good deal on Amazon for two RX 580s. Those two together will get me a bit of double precision power. Plus, Crossfire! And... no. I can't get the damn mobo to even recognize a second 580. It only gives me x8 for one card. I have troubleshooted the sh*t out of this board. I know the PCIE slots are all capable of functioning. I've updated and reverted the bios. I've overclocked CPU, RAM, ..., underclocked, overvolted, undervolted. The hardware all should work. But when I try to make it work, it limps along. Please tell me that I missed something obvious. Suggestions (other than "buy another board/gpu/heatsink/psu/house...")?

HI Guys, Need some advice on weather i am being stupid or i should be fine, i am looking at upgrading from the 1600X to the 3800X. Do you guys think this would be a good idea or a bad one? Do you think my board will handle the power requirements? Please only reply if you know what you are talking about, many thanks in advice

I have an Adata SX8000NP 256gb NVMe drive I got fairly cheaply nearly a year ago, when I got it and installed a fresh install of Windows and was getting about 2100 MB/s read and 1100MB/s write. The other day I tested it again and the read speeds were fine around 1900MB/s however the writes are under 200MB/s. Also Crystal Disk Info and Adata's own toolbox show the drive to be in great health as well. (pic of HD Tune and Crystal disk mark below) I have an MSI X370 Gaming Carbon pro on the latest BIOS with a Ryzen 1700 @ 3.85GHz and 16GB of DDR4 @ 3000, and I have put the drive in the top M.2 slot which is PCIe 3.0 x4 and I have the storage settings set to AHCI. Is there anything that is slowing down the drive to this extent, such as outdated firmware on the SSD or would it more likely to be windows restricting it for some reason? Thanks in advance!

Planning on pulling the trigger on my first pc build in a few weeks and I feel I have most of my parts nailed down except for a motherboard. Maybe it's just me but there's just so many options and it's been a brain rattler to narrow it down to one board. I'm also not super knowledgeable about boards and retailer's spec pages don't really help. I've eyed the x370 Taichi, Prime x470 Pro, and the B450 Gaming Pro Carbon but those are the ones that have caught my eye and look good on paper but I don't have any experience with these boards. Anyways, give me some suggestions. Needs: Moderate overclocking of the 3700x Reliability ATX $150 USD +/- depending Wants: No bios updated needed unless board has bios flashback Looks good White-ish-- I'm trying to go for a black/white build Good I/O Wi-Fi RGB

PLEASE READ PRIOR TO COMMENT. So I have finialy taken the shot on a 3600 after owning a 1200 since release. Got the Bios on my Biostar X370 GT7 to the latest version. However dr debugger just gives me a 42 post for 3 seconds before showing F2. Then it stays in that status. I have reset bios settings and done individual component tests, Single ram, no boot drive, ect. Still no post to bios screen. Any help that is not common sense would be appreciated. Also if anyone can link me to some x370 with zen2 performance metrics, I would be further grateful.

I won't be doing this immediately but later down the line I'm thinking about getting a 3800X . I've already upped my BIOS in my Gigabyte Aorus Gaming 5 x370 board and according to the support site it will support the latest Ryzen 3000 (Zen 2) CPUs with the BIOS update. I was wondering if anyone else with a x370 board has done the same or run into issues?

The product page claims "2-way SLI or 3-way Crossfire." And also boasts about: Powered by AMD® Ryzen™ AM4 and 7th generation Athlon™ processors to maximize connectivity and speed with Dual NVMe M.2, onboard 802.11AC WIFI, front panel USB 3.1 and gigabit LAN I only have two Vega cards, so 2-way crossfire it is then! And I have two NVMe's, so I set those up after some frustration with the BIOS updates on this board. But now both NVMe's work, and I'm happy. However, after installing the 2nd M.2 drive, my 2nd Vega no longer shows up in Windows or BIOS. 1st Vega is running at x4 currently, while it used to be x8 and x4 for crossfire previously. I have no idea which settings to modify to have both my Vegas show up in BIOS, while being able to use both M.2 drives as well. I have no other SATA devices, or PCIE cards connected. I should be able to get this to work, IIRC the x370 provides 20 lanes, 4 of which go to 1st GPU, and 4+4 of which go to the NVMe's. That leaves 8 lanes, more than enough to run one more graphics card.... so why can't I configure it this way? Unless I'm mistaken and NVMe's actually take 8 lanes each? If it's not possible to have a 2nd or 3rd GPU if you use both M.2 slots... should the product page *disclose that? Shouldn't this be mentioned in the manual? It's as if running a setup like mine has never occurred to anyone at Asus. The only thing the manual says is that the 2nd m.2 slot shares lanes with the 2nd GPU. But that's shares and not "completely takes all the lanes away from your 2nd GPU." V'been badgering this out for a week now with no progress. Help? Manual screenshots below if useful.

Hi everyone this is my first post, I am seeking help to choose between the "Asus R.O.G. CROSSHAIR VI HERO"(147 eur) and the "Asus R.O.G. STRIX B450-F GAMING"(137 eur) motherboards for a ryzen 5 3600, which one would suit my gaming needs better? I usually play Forza Horizon 3, Fallout 4, Prey and Astroneer. This is the list of parts i think i am going to buy https://it.pcpartpicker.com/list/ZQrCpG I am also going to buy a ryzen 3-1200 wich i will use to update the bios (if needed) and then i will implement it into my parents pc in an a320 Motherboard. cheers, d95

I'm terrible with Motherboards, but I'd like some suggestions of the Z390,X470, and B450 chipsets. Ones with decent or at least basic features such as Wi-Fi, perhaps M.2 (not sure if I'll need it yet),support for 3200 ram etc -
ASUS X370 Prime Pro misterious pin header
menyus420 posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Hi! Does anyone know what this header is wired to on the Asus X370 Prime Pro? It is misteriously close to the bios chip. I can not find any documentation of it in the manuals. My buddy bricked the mobo during bios flashing and it does not post any more.I tried the cmos clear and all other options. I found a way to flash the bios with my raspberry pi 2 via the SPI interface, but i do not want to solder the chip. If that header is wired to it than i could use it to update the bios image. I already ordered an IC clamp for the chip, but it takes 3 weeks for it to arrive from china Thanks for your time!

Hello everyone, i apologyze in advance for my english as i am not a native speaker. The thing is, i have an old Intel I7 2600k and i want to upgrade it to a new Ryzen 7 3700x. I can run my games pretty much fine, but i can notice some fps drops while i am multi-tasking. I try to stream some games and renderize videos while browsing youtube and normal webs like that one. The AMD CPU would be paired with 16GB (upgradable to 32GB) of RAM DDR4 (obviusly) from HyperX Fury @3200mhz; and an ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VI HERO. I know it has an "old" chipset, but i have read several threads that confirm it is fully capable of handling the third Ryzen gen, or the 3700x at least. The point is, should i do the upgrade or i should keep the i7 for more time? FULL SPECS at the moment: -MSI Z77A-G43 (pretty low budget mobo at the time) -I7 2600k -16GB RAM DDR3 HyperX Fury -Gigabyte GTX 1060 6GB Gddr5 -SSD Kingston A400 240GB -HDD 1TB WD Caviar Blue Sata 3 7200rpm -PSU 600w 80plus certified (it never gave me any problems with this rig) PS: Please, notice that i am not from a country that has similar prices to the US, so i would appreciate that you don't recommend me to get a x570 mobo because it will double the price of the one i listed before; and so on. Thank you all for your time and your responses ♥ -
So I finally bit the bullet and upgraded my 1700x to a 3700x. I was even able to re-use my motherboard after ASRock issued a bios update for my X370 Gaming X. The install process was smooth, and other then an oddly long boot time (more then a minute) everything seemed fine. I was in the middle of running a few benchmarks when I had my first bluescreen (WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR). I rebooted and checked out Event Viewer and saw more than a dozen WHEA-Logger Event 17 warnings. They were corrected hardware errors concerning the PCI Express Root Port. 40 minutes later my system bluescreened again. I'm now running a fresh windows install on a spare SSD and every reboot Event Viewer is showing multiple WHEA-Logger warnings. All my drivers are up to date (including the newest AMD chipset driver) and while my system seems stable now (I've run an hour each of MEMtest, AIDA64, and FurMark) I'm not sure I trust it to stay that way. Has anyone else had luck using Ryzen 2 in a X370 motherboard? Is it possible these errors indicate a damaged CPU or Motherboard? Could a new Bios revision fix these issues? When I have time I'll try swapping my old 1700x back into the board to see if the WHEA errors stop, but if anyone has a better solution I'd love to hear it. System: Ryzen 3700x ASRock X370 Gaming X Ballistix 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3200 Gigabyte GeForce 1070 Let me know if you need any other info. Thanks! -
Is there a performance difference when using ryzen 3000 on x370 compared to x470 or b450? Should I keep my x370 motherboard?
