Hello, I recently got a 5900x thanks to pure luck and matched it with a refurbished X570 MSI prestige creator. My RAM sticks are: memory: 4x 8 GB Samsung B-die Model number: CMR32GX4M4C3466C16 version 4.31 XMP profile Frequency: 3466 MHz Primary timings: 16-18-18-36 Voltage: 1.35v My x299 OC profile was: Frequency: 4000 MHz Primary timings: 16-16-16-34 Voltage: 1.45 v My x570 OC profile is: frequency: 3666 MHz Primary timings: 16-16-16-34 voltage: 1.5v I couldn’t boot my system even with a memory frequency above 3666 MHz using loose timing like 18-22-22-38 and enabling gear down mode; the SoC shows 1.1v applied. My question is why my memory modules aren’t clocking higher on Ryzen? I’ve confirmed the infinity fabric can OC to 1900 MHz. I’m trying to determine if the issue lies with the RAM modules, the motherboard (possibly due to refurbishment), or maybe a bad IMC on the CPU because I’m thinking about buying better RAM and using an old set for someone else.
Ryzen memory controller requires more specific setup compared to Intel. Use only two sticks in slots A2 and B2.
