Trident z royals 3200mz 4x8 crashes my pc all the time

[LogicAngel]

I just got my Trident z royals today and when i installed them they work fine, my motherboard is a asus strix b450-f. it can support speeds up to 3200 mhz.

I looked up online and then i realized that the ram arent QVL tested with my cpu which is a Ryzen 7 2700.

When i try to lock the mhz to 3200 the pc wont even boot up, it gives me an error, now if i try to lower it a bit like 3000, it can work for some time but if i try downloading something on steam it crashes the pc immediately.

I also updated my bios, and it still doesnt work. 

When i try to set the ram to Auto under bios its speeds lock at 2133 mhz which is extremely bad. 

 

The CL is 16-19-19-39

 

Any tips?

or should i try sending them back?

Have you tried using the XMP profiles in the bios or have you been overclocking the memory manually?

[LogicAngel]

yes i did try using the xmp profile which sets it to 3200, CL 16-19-19-39 and 1.35v voltage. It crashes it right away, even when i lower the mhz to like 3000mhz it crashes the system when i try doing something.

Ryzen 2000-series can't handle high frequency RAM very well....and even worse with Ryzen 1000-series.

Also, 2 DIMMs vs 4 DIMMs puts more stress / load on the Integrated Memory Controller (IMC).

 

Try this:

1. Enable XMP (so the timings + voltage is automatically set for you)
2. Manually drop the RAM multiplier to DDR4-3000 or DDR4-2933
3. Save and Exist the BIOS

im going to try this

Are you trying to combine memory kits?

[LogicAngel]

Okay so ive lowered it to 3000mhz and so far nothing has happened i have tried downloading a game on steam and it works fine right now and  i have google open. Last time i tried downloading on close to 3200mhz it just crashed right away.

No, i got a kit of 4 sticks Trident z royals 3200mhz

[LogicAngel]

oh right its 3600mhz sticks its cus my current motherboard doesnt support 3600mhz i just forgot xd

technically it's the Zen+ CPUs used in testing of these boards that cannot do 3600MHz. With Zen 2 CPUs most B450 boards can reach 3600MHz.

I have the ASUS ROG Strix B450-F GAMING, Socket-AM4 which supports 3200mhz

I know, I'm saying the limit is on the CPU and not the board itself. You should see higher frequency options in the BIOS.

 Ah i understand, my bad. 

[LogicAngel]

What would be stable speeds the, cus 3000mhz it seems stable as for now. it hasnt crashed the system yet. 

[LogicAngel]

I just tried launching modern warfare and it still seems stable so far with everything i normally use running in the background aswell

That you have to test, seems like 3000 is your setup's stable point. Unless you're willing to touch the timings, lowering frequency bit by bit is the only way to improve stability

I have found online that the cpu ryzen 7 2700 supports max 3000mhz 

[LogicAngel]

Ah, up to 3200, i guess im gonna test that, but it doesnt make sense since my board supports 3200 and the cpu should be fine with it aswell but hey im not that good at understanding these such things so im sure there is a reason for it. 

[LogicAngel]

But i have a question, i searched up online my motherboard name and went to asus official site and it says that the motherboard asus strix b450-f supports up to 4400mhz. 

But its the 3rd gen, i did update my bios but does that increase my memory limit on the board? 

I bought it when it was 2nd gen compatible.

AMD only promised I think 2666MHz for 4 dual rank (double sided) sticks (assume 64GB with 16GB sticks since 32GB sticks werent a thing for non REG DDR4) and 2933 for 2 single rank sticks, going further is considered an overclock and overclocks are never guaranteed.

there's nothing you can really do to fix a hardware issue like the CPU's memory controller.
