The Ryzen 3700X is running at 1700mhz FCLK?
Cmos holds a saved configuration, saved by Windows during shutdown and maintained by the psu or battery. Updating the bios alters all default bios values, but when restarting, bios prompts cmos to implement its stored data during POST. To ensure cmos is removed from this process, it must be cleared, which causes bios to begin fresh and identify every hardware id, necessary settings, and voltages.
1600mhz fclock should be compatible with every Ryzen 2nd gen processor available, while 1700 and above depend on silicon availability. My setup can manage up to 1866 with single bit errors, which are corrected by hardware, but it requires significant voltage for stability. 1800mhz offers stable performance with higher safe voltages compared to the default. With standard voltages, I can reach as high as 1766mhz.
We don’t have any information about the voltages your mainboard uses, so it’s best to check if the issue lies with your RAM model or with InfiniBand fabric. Simply reduce the infinity clock to a 2:1 ratio (ram/fclock), which helps determine if the problem is related to RAM overclocking stability before attempting InfiniBand adjustments.
It might assist, though you're pushing beyond the stated "stock speed" despite mentioning it. The CPU's IMC is rated for 3200 Mtps, but using two sticks per channel reduces stability on most motherboards due to memory interconnect design. However, B-Die offers voltage tolerance, making it a safer option worth considering.
I'm beginning to suspect the problem lies with Call of Duty since my other games run smoothly. In earlier versions of Cod Vanguard, the first few months would cause crashes, but after an update they stopped happening. Now, with Cod Modern Warfare 2, it only displays a crash report and asks to contact Activision or Blizzard; the PC doesn't restart like it did when FCLK exceeded 1800.
Perhaps a player who enjoys CoD MW2 might share if they occasionally crash.
There are numerous reports of MW2 crashing, indicating significant issues. Most incidents occur on PCs with specifications exceeding the standard, such as when using basic commands like xmp.
