OCAU Ryzen Overclocking discussion/ Guide / Owners Thread

@lowdog is there an offset type setting in the BIOS? Similar to Intel rigs where you set an offset to achieve a vcore bump but you don't permanently set the vcore, so you get all the power saving settings etc to drop speed and vcore at idle?

 

no offset settings I'm my bios, use to have them on my MSI Z97 Xpower but not on the X370 Titanium...think I read that Asus C6R has them but not sure.

any way with this board with vcore left on auto and cpu speed manually set at boost speed of 3.7GHz i'm getting default vcore of 1.19v and all power saving features working.....core speed and vcore throttling down at idle but turbo speed across all cores at load with low vcore and 1 hour 28 mins prime stable so looks good to me.

 

Some thing going on here;

First run 1700 @ 3.9GHz and ram 2 x 8GB @ 2933MHz loose timings




Second run 1700 @ 3.7GHz and ram 2 x 16GB @ 2133MHz tighter timings

 

Quite a jump when changing the timings..

 

AMD has always been about tight timings, rather than sheer brute speed when talking about memory.

 

that is a huge score man. I havent seen it that high on the 1700. Tight!

 

are we forgetting the elephant in the room
3.7 vs 3.9 and 3.7 scores massively....
even with the ram differences that makes absolutely no sense.

quick everyone underclock your cpus for more power take that intel

oh wait i only just noticed 2 16 gig sticks?
what black magic is this

 

What is the elephant then

 

i have no idea been out in the sun too long and thought it sounded cool more the point the lower actual speed got a vastly higher score and no one mentioned it...that was it i think

 

Run is bugged for sure even though it gave that score on 2 runs a reboot soon sorted it out

 

Asus Prime B350-Plus kicking ass

Save those sheckles on the X370 lol

 

Lowdog: Are you using ryzen master or bios? You need to ensure HEPT is on, looks like you've been effected by the know timing bug. Did the machine sleep before that run?

 

Haha, my best is 1774cb at 4041Mhz with 2400 c15 mem but I have seen 1900cb on a well tuned system before

 

Yep woke from sleep and had the sleep bug lolol yay for the extra performance

 

Thats awesome . Considering that board can be had for under $150 .
Shame it's only realtek Lan and 887 Audio .

 

Yippee...

just bought that board at Scorptec...
the cheapest one they had..

P.S. dont forget the OCAU discount...

 

could it of been caching? if so i have never seen it before again x files shit
is anyone else using 32 gig/2 sticks?

 

lofl just woke from sleep again and ran cinebench @ 3.7GHz and scored 1934 this time.

 

Does 16 vs 32gb matter in cinebench in terms of performance ?

 

X370 in the house




Nice board so far, VRM clearly a cut above the cheaper MSI B350, but at the end of the day from inital testing doesn't afford much more headroom, Since chips hard wall so quickly





and the Nano is back on air, and on the bench. 3dm fun, though a Ti would be nice about now
