Trident Z Neo problems

[Kameronl93]

I recently upgraded my 3900x system with a 64gb kit of trident Z neo.

This kit is the advertised 16-16-16-36 timings at 3600speed.

The system was wildly unstable at said advertised speed and timings, but runs flawlessly at 14-14-15-36 3466.

Just unlucky with one of the dimms?

What voltages?

4 Simms or 2?

 

That's a pretty fast kit, not too surprising if the speed is a little lower

unsure, didn't touch. Bios says limit 1.35v

You could easily bump up the voltage to 1.45v without any active cooling.

yea, at 3600 that's a lot of pressure on the imc and the interconnect. 

you could try setting the soc to 1.1 and dram to 1.35 manually and then set it to 3200 and enable xmp/docp, if that works go for 3600 with xmp/docp.

Yeah I am sure more voltage might make the advertised speed achievable, just never experienced a kit that had stability issues with just xmp/axmp

4 sticks of DRAM puts more stress / load on the Integrated Memory Controller (IMC) compared to 2 sticks.

Even though your DRAM kit and motherboard may be rated for DDR4-3600+, your CPU's IMC is not guaranteed to handle it.
