Thanks a million. 4 sticks - bad mobo of questionable (At least VRMwise) quality - bad SK Hynix - not really good conclusion: use only 2 sticks or get better mobo and hope for luck Don't buy Apple M1 computers with 8GB of RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 28, 2017 Have you looked in the mobo manual? I'm pretty sure it will say in there that if four slots are populated it will only use upto 2400.

No, 2x 16 will not work either, because they are dual rank- double sided. AMD didn't expect anyone to use such amounts of ram because its mainstream, not HEDT Don't buy Apple M1 computers with 8GB of RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 28, 2017 2X 16GB should work fine.. This is what I was referring to, on my mobo anyway so I imagined was same for other B350 boards, but might not... I looked in the spec and manual for your mobo and couldn't find anywhere that said anything similar, so I would check with gigabyte before making any changes. Ryzen Series CPUs: UDIMM Memory Slot Frequency(MHZ) A1 A2 B1 B2 - SR - - 2667 - DR - - 2667 - SR - SR 2667 - DR - DR 2400-2667 SR SR SR SR 2133-2400 SR/DR DR SR/DR DR 1866-2133 So, as you can see when using 4 dimms in the table above, it can only get upto 2400... whereas 2 slots can get higher frequencies... but that could be bullshit AFAIK. If I had some more modules here I would test that out. Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.

AMD didn't expect anyone to use such amounts of ram because its mainstream, not HEDT Mine are dual rank and they work fine... what you're referring to I think is when people were havign problems getting the RAM frequency higher with DR dimms, that got fixed mostly in the AGESA BIOS updates. I have my DR dimms OC'ed to 3066Mhz as soon as the BIOS updates came out, haven't tried higher yet... mine are rated for 3000Mhz by the way.

By the way, noticed in your sig, you are only runnign your ram at 2933... you should be able to get that up nearer 3200 now, and possibly beyond. My ram is corsair vengeance 3000Mhz and OCs more than rated, so yours should too unless they are using different chips or something... worth a look anyway, just save your profile as it is, try to OC the ram some more, if it doesn't work or you get BSOD etc, just reset CMOS and load in your profile again.
