Ryzen 7 OC problem

[No_Thor]

Got my self a new build, and desided to try overclock it.

But as I'm new to it I looked at some tutorials and do a not to extrem oc to start with.

 

out of the box the cpu runs at 3.6GHz, acording to Ryzen Master, in the Bios it runs at 3.4GHz.

In the Bios the ram is running at 2133MHz and in Ryzen Master it's 1067MHz(My understanding is that this is the about the half of the true ram speed)

 

Tried first to up the ram speed to 3200MHz, as that is the speed of the ram I have and Ryzen is said to work better with higher ram speed.

It ended with soft crashes during gamming, so I reset it.

 

Then I whent in to the Ryzen Master software where I raised the clock speed to 3,8GHz as a test and raised the ram speed to 1467MHz the memory control was sett to 14, 14, 36, 14, 14.

did not adjust the voltage control.

 

When I restarted the machin I ended up with windows blue screen saying the the processor was not found and/or a core was missing/broken.

From there I tried to get in to the bios but it either forze during the start scren or in the bios it self, after 15-20 restart later I manage to get in and sett the bios to default save and restart again this time I was able to get pass the blue screen and back in.

 

When I was back in I checked the Ryzen Master an it was now running at 3.8GHz and the ram at 1600MHz.

I reset it to default and restarted and is now running at 3.6GHz with 1067MHz ram.

 

If anyone have an idea what happend or what I did wrong I would like to heat about it.

I would also like to hear any suggestion about how to get an stabile overclock that won't run to hot with air cooling, and also use the ram speed that I have access to.

 

specs:

win 10 Os

Ryzen 7 1700x (8C-16T, 3,4/3,8GHz)

Asus Prime x370 pro

Asus GTX 1070 ROG Strix

Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200MHz 2x8

corsair RM750w

Alpenfohn Ben Nevis Cpu cooler

You need to ramp up DRAM voltage to 1.35V otherwise it wont be stable
Also, the timings need to be 14-14-14-34, you got them wrong

[SquintyG33Rs]

to start off don't use ryzen master for overclocking it's a bad idea to change anything like that inside the OS. the RAM speed it shows is half because it shows the actuall speed which is multiplied by 2 for marketing purposes since it's a dual data rate module (DDR). and yeah what ^ that guy said timing is biggest at the end assuming they are the right ones

the DRAM was at 1.35V and the timing was supossed to be 16-18-18-36.

It's stabile at 3.8GHz with 2933MHz RAM.

 

But there seems to be a problem with running the RAM at 3200MHZ as it fails to boot at that point.

It depends on your CPU's silicon and the particular kit.

2933 stable is great, i am running that too with the same RAM.

Dont overclock with Ryzen Master

Did use it at first when I got the problem.

Used the bios to overclock after that.

Ryzen seems to be a little goofy with Memory failing on boot . Mine used to boot into 2400 or 2666Mhz all the time, especially after a cold boot. I’m not sure if you have a bios update you can apply but I did the last one and it fixed it.

Memory fail count
Memory present

Do have updated Bios.

As for now it's stabile, any higher then 2933 and it fails to boot. For now that's fine for me.

 

And yes it's behave a bit goofy when it failed booting.
