Ram OC using DRAM calculation
Ram OC using DRAM calculation
I currently lack the necessary information to assist with your issue. Could you provide more details about the problem and the steps you've taken so far?
I’m about to adjust several settings for optimal performance. Change memory voltage to 1.410v, CPU SOC to 1.175v, power down mode off. Apply XMP profile but manually set speed to 3200mhz (or let it run at the highest speed). If it posts 16-19-19-19 at 3200, verify all run at 16-18-18-18. Set command rate to 2T CR. The calculator isn’t reliable for mixed memory setups—unless you’re using a specific kit, skip it. Don’t stress; the tool doesn’t always display settings correctly. You should keep sub-timings flexible enough to adjust at lower speeds. I usually start low, increase frequencies gradually, and test thoroughly. Once satisfied, raise the frequency. Ignore memory voltage for now. Cooling the sticks with a fan is essential for stability. Running at 3200mhz with those two kits might still be possible, especially if your Ryzen controller handles it well. It really depends on your hardware. Be prepared to tweak further if needed.
I understand your comment but you can try the lowest settings and adjust those parameters later. Set the DRAM to 1.4V and SOC to 1.15V to confirm all settings are correct. If the 3200MHz doesn’t work, lower the frequency and stick with these timings until stability returns. Increase memory voltage to 1.425V if needed.
Start with the basics. Single stick OCs perform best. Dual sticks at 2 x 8 B-die deliver top results. Quad sticks work well but can strain the already selective Ryzen memory controller. Always avoid mixing different memory types—those configurations likely use separate PCB layouts, like A1 versus A2. There’s a lot to learn about memory and getting it right... The inexperienced folks often make mistakes here, especially with Ryzen memory issues.
I'm really into fine-tuning memory lately, and that's where the biggest improvements happen. I purchased a high-binned Samsung B-die when Ryzen launched, intending to use it across every new generation. To date, I've achieved around 3066mhz with 14 cas timings on my 1700 3466mhz board, paired with 14 cas timings on the 2700X and 3800mhz boards, and also on the 3700X all on the same X370 Taichi. A big part of this success comes from the great software I've used—it really helped me learn and get started. I've invested a lot in this memory setup, but I still find it exciting to experiment with different types of RAM on my system.
My 3600 B-Dies are operating at 1866mhz CL 16-16-16-36-56 2T 2700X. The other B-Dies use G.Skill 4266mhz @ 2150mhz CL-16-16-16 2T (stable under load) on an Intel 8700K. (Actual speeds are higher). The variation comes from differences in the Ryzen memory controller versus Intel's significant gap.
