Enhancing performance by adjusting settings.
Enhancing performance by adjusting settings.
I recently assembled my first PC and put it all together (fixing some issues along the way). My setup includes an MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC, Ryzen 7 2700X 8C 16T, Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT OC 8GB, 32GB Vengeance Pro 3200MHz DDR4, and an 850x Gold+ PSU. I've experimented with overclocking the RAM, but it won't boot and the CPU light appears when I do that. The system runs but doesn't post properly. I'm able to overclock most components, but the RAM problem keeps me stuck. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
your ram is 2x16 with a clock speed of 2133 mhz at 1.216v. timings refer to the settings that control how quickly the memory communicates with the cpu. you mentioned adjusting voltages carefully without damaging anything, and now you're trying to fix timing issues before performance improvements. the timings on your ddr4 are listed as 16-18-18-36, but your two profiles show different values (2933mhz and 3200mhz). this inconsistency might be causing stability problems.
I've already changed the frequency to 3200, but it still displays a black screen. I'm just aiming to improve my PC's performance.
they fit perfectly in the correct positions only during overclocking, which is when issues begin. I managed to get it running at 2933 at around 1.2v, but now I’m struggling to keep the CPU stable.
