Errors during EXPO performance, absence of issues at JEDEC rates
Errors during EXPO performance, absence of issues at JEDEC rates
Here’s a revised version of your message with varied wording:
Hello everyone, I recently assembled this system: an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X paired with the Sapphire Radeon RX 7600, a liquid cooler, and several components. The motherboard comes with a list of tested configurations, including the MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI (EXPO) model. My BIOS is currently running AMI BIOS version 7D75v172 (beta, updated 2023-06-30).
Yesterday, I ran MemTest86 and encountered numerous errors—this was when the EXPO profile was active. After disabling EXPO, my BIOS retained its original timings but adjusted the memory speed to 3200 MHz; I had to reset it to meet JEDEC standards. When I reran the test and enabled the extra experimental mode (14), no errors appeared. Both runs used four passes, and the failed test showed errors only in the second pass.
Here are my questions:
1. What should I do about these results? My RAM appears compatible with the motherboard, as it’s listed on G.Skill’s site.
2. Why does the memory configuration show DDR5 7468MT/s under EXPO but 6400MT/s under normal settings? Is this typical?
3. My CPU supports a maximum speed of 5200 MT/s. Could this be contributing to the issues?
4. I’m considering using MSI’s Memory Try It tool and adjusting timings between standard and EXPO profiles.
5. Might using the EXPO profile at 5600 MHz when the max supported is 5200 cause damage?
Below are the test outcomes for your reference. Thank you for sharing.
