Error occurs during RAM XMP activation.
Error occurs during RAM XMP activation.
Hey! You just upgraded with two extra 8GB sticks to reach a total of 32GB RAM. Your Ryzen 3700X benefits from a solid high frequency, which you're using with the XMP profile at 3200MHz without issues. After installing the new sticks (which were actually Samsung B-Die versions), you encountered a MEMORY_MANAGEMENT BSOD. You tried disabling XMP but ended up back at around 2660MHz. Since nothing seems to fix the problem, could you share any clues or settings that might be causing it? Thanks for checking, and let me know if you need more advice!
Reset the CMOS, then attempt the XMP again. Clearing the memory often improves performance and may aid retraining.
I believe you might have cracked the puzzle by combining ICs. They usually favor distinct tertiary values and often clash with each other. While many advise avoiding brand or speed mixes, the core problem lies in pairing different memory ICs. You could follow @boggy77’s advice and increase the voltage in hopes of stability, but beyond that you’ll need to manually adjust timing settings until both ICs align. Expect a lot of testing and stress as you fine-tune the process—it won’t be a straightforward adjustment.
I understand, it's disappointing to get the same model again despite my previous choice. It looks like the lottery influenced my selection, using a different RAM die. Thanks for your support! I plan to try the manual timing method next. Also, yes—different timings are possible for each memory channel.
Varies by board, but yes, the IMC can adjust training times individually per channel. If your board allows this, you’ll notice two distinct numbers next to each timing—one for each channel. This functionality should work in theory, though you may encounter some unusual performance issues when switching between channels. I haven’t personally tested it, but it’s definitely worth checking. Regarding DIMM ordering, I’ve faced the same problem multiple times. With Corsair, they use the same part numbers but different revisions, which often involve die-level changes. This was especially noticeable when they switched between Hynix AFR and MFR. I wish there was a clearer way to mark which dies belong to which DIMM, but I doubt industry standards will change soon.
I’ll keep it simple. You can either keep XMP enabled and tweak the voltage, or set XMP manually and then adjust the voltages separately.
