Ryzen Memory Tuning

[Matt_98]

Hi Guys its been a while.

Just built a new Ryzen 5 3600 based system and I'm strugglimh to get the memory runnimg at the rated speeds, I can apply the XMP Profile but I get an imediate BSOD in windows. Do I need to manualy tune the clocks or what? My knowledge of RAM stops at speed and capacity so please treat me like an idiot!

 

CPU-R5 3600

MOBO- Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite

RAM- CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 Vengence LPX 16GB 3200MHZ 2*8GB

GPU- GTX 1660Ti

PSU- CX750M

Update your bios or the chipset drivers and check if that helps 

If that didn't try one stick at a time and see if the problem still occures

Verify that after applying the XMP that BIOS is also changing DRAM voltage to 1.35V or whatever your kit is rated at.

 

Also, did you consult the manual when installing the RAM to verify you've installed into the correct slots?

yes the voltage does change to 1.35 which is the rated voltage

Ram is on the correct slots.

 starting to wish I had got the ryzen optimized kit for an extra tenner lmao

Try to our your soc voltage to 1.1

If that didn't fix it I don't know why this is happening

That's bs advertising. I use memory designed for z170 and z270 boards.

 

@TofuHaroto have him memory train from a lower frequency. Maybe start at 2933mhz

Didn't think of that 

Your correct

I actually got there myself, turns out there is multiple places to adjust dram voltage in the gigabyte bios, stable at 3000Mhz which is good enough for me
