RAM speeds?

[andl3]

Hi, so I just installed new ram and my pc restarted like 7-9 times and now it works. In bios it says its runnin at 3200mhz but when I check in cpu z it says this
What should I do or what's is wrong?

[goto10]

nb is not ram

 

ram should say dram or ram frequency, click on the memory tab on cpu-z

[andl3]

[goto10]

well, remember that ram is ddr, so multiply that by two, so it is running at 2400mhz

 

then it would mean that you did not set the right speed, did you used xmp to set it right?

[andl3]

yes xmp profile 2: 3200 mhz

 

[goto10]

what is the exact model of ram you have there?

[andl3]

HX430C15PB3K2/8

on the datasheet of that ram it says it has 2 xmp profiles, one at 2667 and another at 3000

 

nowhere i see mention of 3200

[andl3]

Spoiler

 

wtf

it said on the website where i bought that it runs 3200 mhz at stock

 

[andl3]

and now when i got package it says 3000mhz

[goto10]

you should be able to overclock it, so it goes up to the sped you want or you could return it because they sold you the wrong part, is your decision

[andl3]

and every time i change ram speed my pc restarts 7 or 9 times

[andl3]

and i think it doesnt change frequency it just puts it at 2400, cuz i tried to select 2933 and it did the same

[goto10]

i had a similar situation the other day when i was overclocking my ram

 

iirc i was advised to modify the voltage from 1.2 to 1.3v on the ram

 

there is a situation with your pc, if the list of part on your signature are correct, first gen ryzen motherboards and cpus had lots of compatibility issues with many ram kits, could be the case, try to set it at 2800 and see how it goes

 

you can also try to do it with ryzen master if you want, instead of use bios

[andl3]

it runs at 1.35v

[andl3]

should i disable memory changed check?

 

[andl3]

I also tried clearing cmos

[andl3]

ok i made it work to 3000 wont go above ;-;

[andl3]

ok nvm it crashed again, i put it on 2866, it boots immediatly

but it does the same on 2933 ;-;

JEDEC standard for that memory kit is DDR4-2400 MHz with 17-17-17-## timings at 1.2V

XMP 1: DDR4-3000 MHz 15-17-17-## timings at 1.35V

XMP 2: DDR4-2666 MHz 15-17-17-## timings at 1.35V

 

It looks like this RAM kit is unstable with XMP enabled, and running at the 3000 MHz profile.

Clues:

• Computer restarts 7~9 times = BIOS trying attempting to self relearn, trying different secondary timings to get 3000 MHz stable
• Relearn and XMP fails, so loads fail-safe JEDEC settings
• CPU-Z is showing 2400 MHz (e.g. 1200 MHz) with 17-17-17-39 timings
• As I mentioned above, 17-17-17-## is JEDEC settings

What version motherboard BIOS are you running?

If you don't already have a latest BIOS (or a more recent one) flashed onto your motherboard, give that a try first.

 

If that doesn't work, then either your CPU and/or motherboard cannot handle the more aggressive 3000 MHz overclock.

 

EDIT:

Ryzen 2600 is capable of running up to 2933 MHz before going out of spec and into "overclocking."

HOWEVER, lower tier MSi B350 PC Mate motherboard lists 2666, 2933, and 3200+ as "OC."

It looks like motherboard could be the limiting factor.

i was afraid of that, motherboard migth be the problem, and i cant recomed a new bios, is nto guaranteed to work better with newer bios

[andl3]

I have the "latest" bios, i just didnt want to bother with beta version cuz i dont have a 3rd gen yet, btw i just booted my pc today and it had a error 0x0000221 message... i used 3200 mhz when i had 2x4 gb for my ram, now when i have 4x4 gb it's not stable at all, my motherboard is this https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B350-PC-MATE

Hi,

 

I have the same issue as you, i just manual overclock and the frequency is very stable.

[andl3]

I put my ram on frequency of 2800  mhz and its still unstable, when i run my memory diagnostic in windows it says that there is a hardware problem detected but it doesnt display me next time my pc boot becuase every time i go restart is says an erorr message 0x0000017 when i do memory test but when i restart normally it just says error code 0x0000221. anyone knows a way to fix this or there is no way?
