To locate additional instances of the same Ram, you can search systematically through relevant sections or databases.
To locate additional instances of the same Ram, you can search systematically through relevant sections or databases.
Here are the key points you asked about:
- The main clock speeds are tCL, tRCDWR, tRCDRD, tRP, and tRAS.
- You can choose simpler settings (16, 8, 16, 16, 24) if you prefer less aggressive performance.
- For most kits using dual rank B dies at 3600MHz, these values hold well.
- tRC should be at least tRP plus tRAS; otherwise, stability suffers.
- Best results start with tRP, then fine-tune tRAS and tRC together since tRAS usually doesn’t hurt much.
- Set tFAW to 16 for optimal tRRDS, tRRDL, tWTRS, and tWTRL performance.
- tRRDL and tWTRL must match or exceed their -S versions (tRRDS 4 & tWTRS 4 should work).
- tCWL should match tCL; if not, adjust accordingly.
- tRFC 260 is aggressive but not unusual for B dies.
- 300 is a safer choice than 2 or 3.
- tRDRDSCL and tWRWRSCL often align; avoid lowering them to max unless necessary.
- tWR 10 is standard for B dies—most kits support it.
- tRTP and tRDWR are usually at 10; set them to that if you don’t need changes.
- The rest (tRDRDSC through tCKE) are fixed by default.
Performance tips:
- vSOC 1.15V is typical for Ryzen 5000 series chips.
- vDIMM 1.55V is recommended unless you use active cooling.
- 40Ω is ideal for high-end boards, but depends on the specific board.
- RTT values change with DIMM and RAM type; auto mode is usually fine.
- DrvStr numbers vary by DIMM and stick; your setup seems to work best with higher drive strength.
- If unsure, stick with 10 for tRDRDSC and similar timings.
Let me know if you need more details on any specific setting!
You appreciated the guidance and gained valuable insights while exploring this topic. I discovered important details that will assist with choosing RAM for future builds. The initial kit was chosen because it supported 3600mhz RAM, and the CAS 16 model offered strong performance at that frequency and price. I now understand that RAM quality is more critical than its XMP profile. My first attempt at tuning timings was challenging; I had to reset CMOS and start fresh after failing memory tests. After several adjustments, I completed a stress test lasting over five hours without errors. I’m considering further tweaks by testing stability at slightly lower voltages to help the RAM stay cooler. Thanks again for your support—please let me know if you notice any discrepancies. The VDIMM setting remains at 1.45 as configured.
Those early MSI boards tend to excel at memory overclocking, though they can be quite frustrating when trying to achieve stable overclocks. In my experience, they often show inconsistent performance and weak auto-recovery features. A tighter tuning could improve results, but if you're content with the current stability, it makes sense to skip any changes.
