The GOC did not kill Yahweh, as they may so proudly proclaim. And that was not the Broken God they destroyed. It was a piece of it, surely, but would you show me a camshaft and call it a car? Oh, so you have some parts together. An engine, perhaps. But not a car.
basically 001 wanted to die it made a entity to Create/Find the device to summon 2399 then gave it to the AOI the AOI then summoned the Destroyer killing the 001 entity. Also the Destroyer is part of the broken god.
Fun, haven't read ouroboros in a while, forgot it had various references to the factory
yeah
But again, that's broken god testimony, they believe all anonymous is god
Because that's what will happen. Did you see the underside of the destroyer? It was damaged even before the encounter in '43. And if you looked very closely, you might have seen the scars were getting closer and closer to the power core. It even managed to damage whatever lets it slip between the layers of reality this time. Eventually the monster will win. It will destroy the destroyer, devour it, and with its power consume everything.
And this bit, goc didn't do anything and 2399 just slapping 001 over and over again in history
@dusty gulch btw, Antimemetics hub is some great reading, I haven't read it in like 2 years, they've added more articles to it, and I think it's nearly finished now, which is great.
the idea is they cant find the heart so they make one and it corrupts their god the CBG has done this many times and every time the corrupted god does damage to the destroyer. eventually the corrupted god will win and proceed to destroy then rebuild the universe. changing it when it does with whatever corrupted it. It may have done this already.
Anyways, yea, 2399 or just a bit of the god itself killed the broken god in mexico
Aoi was just there and got credit
They did identify cbg early on in greece though I believe?
Not sure
hello
I have been going through the Resurrection files lately. Alpha-9 what a bad idea
its still here
Resurrection?
overclocking Resurrection
Oo fun
Dunno why, when someone says something is a bad idea, I think of site 13 lol @dusty gulch
Tbh there's so many things I read in the past that prob got new articles and stuff
Antimemetics hub felt like it doubled in reading material, and I love it
nerds :v
@neon rapids nachos, can you tell me how much you read about keeb stuff :p
who says i read anything
i cant confirm or deny that
they add tons of content all the time and I like that if you don't like something its not cannon.
on a side note my wifi card shuts off on me and i cant figure out why i have to reboot to get it online again
I like how everything can be tied together if you want it to be tied together
tried new drivers and nothing
Good old take it out and plug it back in again?
it still will show in device manager but will not boot just did not even 2 hours ago
its been happening for months
Uninstall the drivers via device manager, unplug, and then just plug it back in again, should automatically give it some "stock" drivers, might be able to work from there
#building-and-recc-chat can be tech help
lets go there so people get off our case for destroying #overclocking
Nothing really goes on here other than people needing to read the pins and Fitz and forky flexing OCs anyways :p
did that but it seems to happen when my pc is idle along time or after downloading for 30 mins to a hour
dang I missed scp lore discussion
Scp lore best lore
overclock your brain to take in more anime per minute 
@robust badger I’ve never watched anime in my life
That doesn't make sense 
I saw this image online of a guy that had a very similar memory kit than me ( bdie 3200 cl14 kit )
I tried to put all the timings similar to his in my motherboard and so far it works fine. Tried running prime95 for an hour and no error happened
been gaming with this and it works fine
I'm totally unfamiliar with all the advanced timings in there, if someone who knows about these could tell me if I have anything in there that doesn't make sense that'd be nice
That's not bad at all, getting a 3200 kit to run at 3600 C14
Not uncommon for Samsung B-Die
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/561323111308328972/669759082319839242/Capture.PNG time to have some real fun (jk dont try it)
4396@C17? Depending on your sticks that would be possible
You can in most BIOS, it's just hard to find sometimes
Number 1, Read pins.
Number 2, make sure you atleast have some knowledge of pc.
Otherwise you might as well us XMP.
Probably don’t do it then

Come back when you understand what XMP is lol
your going to break something.
They asked what xmp is when i told em to slap on xmp and call it a day on #general-chat
🤦
I give up.
I can't teach this dude.
Im stupid to one extent
but know what im doing lol
Don't gatekeep overclocking lol
Lol. just afraid they break something

So true.
I want to smash my head into a wall
I hate Hynix-M die
so am i 
i know what it is, but i dont know how to work it correctly
no worries man, could always pick up a $20 ssd/hdd off ebay and use that for a bench os
https://www.ebay.com/itm/163360245613 Try offer 20
recommended benchmark/program for testing GPU stability? Particularly VRAM. I tried MSI Kombustor and got an incredible 15% "stable" overclock, but it crashed in actual games
@clever epoch occt
i think apex legends might be a decent game for testing ram and you get to play :v
ya apex is good cause its so fickle lol
maximus apex > apex legends amirite
I think we need to introduce gamers to the benchmark that is bfv multiplayer
I remember bf v's loading screen pushing 150+ watts on my 9700k for < 2 seconds
No idea what the game is doing that sucked so much power
dat juicy avx2
my fav game 😍
SANITATER 
Heh
tater
Not 4.5 ghz???
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Bruh
3.2 was too ambitious
Apparently a little over 3 is the record
Time to get the 360 mil and windows 7 iso out
For a second I thought you meant a gun, but then I realized there's no decimal
If only that worked though, "You WILL stay stable", "Uhhh... Ok then"
owo win7
hey I have a ryzen 5 5600x and a lianli galahad aio
whats the best votage and clock speed
If I put it over 44 it turns red
pbo
PBO is the best way to overclock the 5000 Ryzens
80 is still below the throttle point but getting pretty warm
im using sum called amd votage
in the voltage mode
is that good?
sorry amd overclocking
thats the name
its in voltage mode
Honestly I'd just enable the auto overclock and be done with it unless you're trying to post high benchmarks
The auto overclock is perfectly fine and increases the maximum boost clock up to 200 MHz
yah its 46.5 with game boost
Game Boost is different than auto overclock
Auto overclock will push it to around 4.85
What motherboard do you have?
Oh ew you have the old bios look
lmaoo
God damn. RIP. I need to figure out where TRCD is in my bios lmfao
wait look at what
you didnt send any pic?
Its in memory timings, kinda hard to miss it
assumed that. Last time i was in my x570 tuf, i was in "Ram timings and control"
lol
I gotta wait for ASUS to rma a new board.
I looked up the BIOS in the manual and it's the one that was on my old Gaming 970 in the AM3 days
so no auto oc?
When ASUS makes state of the art motherborads... but RMA says its busy
motherboards*
State of the art is a loooooooong stretch lol
I'm looking, it should be a feature but it's different than the newer BIOS
alr thzx
I mean, atleast the vrms aren't god awful on tuf.
they are somewhat decent.
now some other asus motherboards on the other hand...
yeah i take that back
Vrms on all x570 are good
Instead of fighting through the BIOS we can try enabling auto oc through Ryzen Master
oh alr
yah alr got it
alr bet
Go to profile 1, click auto overclocking, save profile, apply and test
It'll ask to reboot, let it
Your power limits will be different than mine because you have a 65 watt processor
If it's stable at the default +100 Boost Override, push it a step higher to 150 and then 200
how can I change it?
i jus went straight to 200 lmao
im getting 91 in prime 95
but its only 44
clock speed
you should probably check the clocks to see if you're doing 200mhz better than before
because you need to CO too
That's a sign that this would be too high of a boost with your setup, it's hitting thermal throttling
Right, and when it tries to push higher it goes to a higher temperature, then it thermal throttles and has to drop the clocks to compensate
oh fr
but I had a triple fan aio
I should be able to go higher
I have the lianli galahad
What thermal paste, how much, and how did you apply it?
the one that came with it a big amount in an x formation
wait can thermal paste dry out?\
The standard paste is kinda garbage, and it sounds like you used too much so that'll be fun to clean off
It'll dry out but over a period of years
cuz I put the thermaal paste and had to leave and left it exposed over night
oo
o
alr
it was lianli thermal paste
thats not good?
Not as good as other stuff and possibly there's other problems like uneven mounting pressure.
A small $5 tube of something would perform better.
alr ill try to screw it on better and get better thermal paste
You want it tight but not forcing it, and don't use tools. That should drop your temps a lot. I'm using the auto overclock on my 5800X with a 240mm (2 fan) radiator and I rarely hit 80 and it boosts up to 4.9 single core.
alr bet
wait do you maybe think my pump isnt plugged in correctly
I dont see a pump option in hardare moniter
but both the connectors from hhe aio are plugged in
one to the cpu fan and one to sys fan
It should be plugged into "AIO PUMP"
There's no pump header on that board
Only 3 headers, 1 for CPU and 2 for fans
Have the fans plugged into the CPU header, plug the pump (on the CPU block) into one of the fan headers and then go into BIOS and set that fan header to 100% manual speed
partially depends on the aio too
how do i know which one is for the pump?
There's probably 2 wires from the pump, one for RGB and the other is the power
there are two cbles coming out thee cpu block
The headers on the board are labeled
does the galahad come with instructions?
200 will get you a 360mm aio with shiny rgb
nope
or even 3 lol
but im pretty sure I got it
that's a bummer lol
I want to mod my 3070 to mount one, 1 in front and 1 in cpu
so i can get those pbo boosts
tbh I wonder if a 240 aio could handled pbo level 2/3
two aios? like one for your gpu too?
Yeah
You won't be able to do 2 AIOs on a single part, you could do one on the CPU and one on GPU
Damn lol.
Or just go custom loop at that point
Why? BECAUSE I CAN
the higher end cards have some aio variants
i mean also you get those higher boosts.
Like i thought you could mount aio's to the 4 screws on the gpu
NZXT has some kits for that
not the same mounting dimensions
also even if you put an aio on the die, you still have to cool the VRMs and everything else
...I just said NZXT makes them lol
Yeah, but I'd rather avoid NZXT.
You could get a full coverage block depending on your card
EK WB does full coverage blocks
They get expensive, expect $500 for a full loop minimum
I was thinking like 9000
full coverage block?
Like it covers the whole gpu
Or it is a gpu
I see an EKWB 3070 "card"
Nowhere near that, let me grab a link
Its literally a card with embedded plastic on it
i was thinking that shrouds exist.
Maybe they do
And I forgot the name
yeah, but isn't that a whole new card?
EK sells the block to attach to your card
But they also sell cards that have them already attached
If you want to get more details and recommendations you might try #old-cooling
I'm not as knowledgeable on custom loops, I know how to build one just haven't done it
alright.
Should I try to overclock my ram for the 5600x? I have crucial ballistix rgb 3600 cl16.
It would be worth trying to squeeze a little extra out of that RAM. Fclk can handle higher speeds and still scales well.
what is overclocking lol
mk
What are safe ram voltages?
depends on IC
IC = integrated circuit = Ram chip
Depends on the ram chips as to what's a safe voltage
^^^^that
So how would I go about determining the safe voltages for overclocking my ram
r/overclocking: All things overclocking go here. Learn to overclock, ask experienced users your questions, boast your rock-stable, sky-high OC and …
1.45V is safe for daily on any DDR4 stick. 1.5V is safe for Samsung B die, but not recommended unless you have cooling (extra voltage = extra heat and B die goes unstable at higher temps)
cdie and early ddr4 says otherwise to 1.45
Yep. even most ddr4 can handle 1.4
even Hynix M-die 
Not sure if this was a good overclock for ram, was able to get crucial ballistix 3600 16 18 18 38 to 3866 15 17 17 36
Cause I am new and took the general advice of 1.45 V to be safe
I think currently it is running at 1.44 V
should be able to do cl14 with 1.5v
You could also tune the subtimings further. No need for your subtimings to be higher than your CL
subtimings dont always scale.
I have some samsung e die that the trp and trcd wont go any lower than 18-19 respectively over 3400. Tested them up to 2v. CL will scale down to CL12 with voltage at 3800.
Was messing with some of the subtimings and my pc would not boot if one of the subtiming was too low forgot which one. I am just trying to squeeze a bit of performance out safely.
If you guys have any reccomendations on what I should I try to get a safe ram overclock then just tell me.
If ya need certain specs to assume a safe overclock then I can say it.
Your RevE will struggle with tRCD but you could probably adjust the other timings lower
tRFC is also usually an easy performance boost
What voltage would you reccomend?
There's an awesome guide pinned at the top https://github.com/integralfx/MemTestHelper/blob/master/DDR4 OC Guide.md#voltage-scaling
if you're on reve, 1.5-1.6 is fine to daily
and going 3866 15-17-17 with crucials is definitely reve
Overclocking my ram and I can’t find the xmp profile anywhere
anyone know what’s going on?
What RAM is it?
Oh wait
The Pro 4S is an OEM only board
It may not have XMP, you'll probably have to set it manually
ah crap, and the ram is Corsair vengeance lpx 3200 MHz
oh
well
bad news
B460 can't go that fast anyway
It maxes at 2666 for i5 and i3 processors
Need Z490 for 3200 mhz
I’m fine with that, I want as high as I can pull
2666 is it
Yep. have to poke around and check for Ram speed settings
No idea if that BIOS is like the regular Pro4 or not but I know the S comes in prebuilts from iBuyPower
and has a custom BIOS
lenovo too I think
All I’m seeing so far is frequency, up to 2666
Set it to that then
Done.
now, what do I do from here?
I’m rather new to this, sorry
do I just hit exit now?
Save and Exit if that's an option
YW
Lmao it’s not booting gg
Of course
CMOS reset time
remove power from the wall
pull battery for 1-2 minutes
replace battery and boot again
Didn't like that speed for some reason
maybe ram in the wrong slots?
remove from the wall as in my outlet right?
yes
yes
a tad confused
This?
yes
do I need to remove my gpu?
32
Is it all the same stuff?
Mhm
My bad, I gotta unscrew it from the io shield
mobo doesn't have a cmos reset jumper or button?
Even then, let it fail to boot ~ 3 times and the bios will probably boot jdec and give you a "press f1 to continue" message
Took the battery out
Pulling the cmos battery is a last resort because it's such a pain, often have to pull the gpu etc
yeah, it took me a minute lol
Did you just type in 2666 there without changing anything else?
I would just enable xmp then let the bios cap it itself
XMP will set ram voltage as well, some timings
Yeah, hadn’t touched anything but the frequency setting
guy above said I need to set it up manually?
You can, but easier to just find that xmp setting
what's the mobo model number? Find the manual pdf online and ctrl f for xmp
Forks
The board doesn't have an XMP setting
It's an OEM version of the Pro4, the Pro4S
Custom BIOS and everything
Lenovo and iBuyPower custom board
Yes
oh
Yea :/
I went through this a while back trying to help somone else until I found out it was a 4S and not just a 4
XD
I'm checking something
stand by
I'm reading the regular Pro4 manual to see if it's hidden away somewhere else but I don't think that board supports XMP period
I see
To the right of the highlighted line, is there an option for XMP in the drop down box?
Ah
Next line down
Where it says 2133 and AUTO
I’m genuinely blind
Yeah
Go to the DRAM frequency line
What options are there?
Instead of AUTO what options are there?
And you set it to 2666 and it goes bork huh?
Indeed
What's at the very top?
Yeah, you might have to do this manually
In other words, write down the numbers from the XMP #1 section previous pic
Okay
Enter them manually in the Primary Timing section below that one
And set it to DDR4 2666
And set the voltage to 1.35 volts
Command rate?
1T
set 2t
4 sticks
Ahhhh
Probs need to bump the voltage up
Can you set voltage ?
Scroll down the page
I'd be surprised if 1.2 didn't run that, but might as well if you can
just looking for it atm
last time we tried just straight 2666 it required a CMOS reset
Not sure if timing or voltage
Don’t see voltage anywhere
Is it somewhere else?
Never mind, found lit
Was already on 1.35
Hmmm, Ok try this I guess
Oh ok, so leave it be then?
Yes
Okay, I’m gonna save and exit now
Listen to Forks, he knows more than I do XD
wdym turned off
It's normal for it to power cycle during memory training
weird that they give you vccsa but not vccio control
This is a weird bios
Lenovo OEM lol
You're more patient that I am, I'd be running jdec lol
It's worth a try
If this doesn't work, JEDEC it is lol
I think part of the reason no XMP is because the XMP exceeds the max board RAM speed.
Is that a thing?
Well..
You’ll see
SIgh. If you just leave it be does it come back on or stay off?
It stays off
poo
Reset CMOS
Then leave it at 2133 I guess
I don't know what else to do
That BIOS is poopy
Indeed
So it turns out my 3200 CL16 memory I have is Samsung B-Die
Time to see how it likes 1.5v, maybe I can get it to 3600
Interesting with those timings
I never ran Thaiphoon before because I never expected it to be B-die with the timings, it's probably low bin B-die
I would agree
Apparently thaiphoon can lie
I'd be wary of dumping 1.5V on the assumption. 1.45V should be fine
Of course, I'm not going straight for 1.5v lol, you always go in steps
I mean, could just pop the heatspreaders and confirm
Odds are good, it's Ripjaws V
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/328891236918493184/727241932430114986/sicc.PNG nonono thaiphoon never lies 
Ripjaws tends to be Hynix
bruh
Wouldn't recommend, there's a chance of ripping the memory ICs off with the heatspreader lol
Eh, that's what super thin spudgers are for
RAMMon agrees with Thaiphoon
AND i forgot to turn on XMP after the bios update again
if its gskill, just look at the label
cjr's still decent to 4000mts
then run 3800 🙃
1:1 with fclk is best
haven't been able to get that to boot yet either
should do like 16-20-20 fairly easily
haven't spent a lot of time TBH
I have a very early 3700x, not sure it will take 1800 FCLK
at 1800, 16-19-19 😛
My 5800X tops out at 1866 FCLK :'(
yikes
Even with the new BIOS update?
Haven't updated yet. Could give it a try actually
The BIOS that most manufacturers put out earlier this month was supposed to help get 2000 fclk
its still 1900 stable
I actually just set it up today
you can boot 2000-2200, but whea all day
I don't have my case yet, so I made a makeshift open air bench
yeah, AGESA 1.2.0.0?
yeah 1.2 does 1900+ easily
So what you're telling me is I should update my BIOS...
Yes, for sure. Especially since that agesa update was made specifically to help with your problem.
What kind of voltage scaling should I expect for my 5800x? Eg if I set to static 1.25V, how good is a frequency of 4400? What would be a good voltage/frequency value to test?
I haven't actually tested yet,I pulled 4400 out of my butt
4400 is weak. With auto overclock on and nothing else I get 4900 single core, 4700 all core.
That said, it varies by silicon lottery 📌 https://siliconlottery.com/pages/statistics
They don't have stats for the 5800X on there, which is why I asked
And I'm asking for voltage at a specific frequency, or frequency for a fixed voltage. I'm sure I could reach those same clocks if I had enough cooling
Only one datapoint for 5800x but it's something https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dsu9K1Nt_7apHBdiy0MWVPcYjf6nOlr9CtkkfN78tSo/edit#gid=2052318503
Zen 3 RAM Overclock
Sheet is sorted and verified submissions LOCKED each Thursday. Please provide proof of stability (no WHEAs) before then otherwise your submission will be removed. Refer to the FAQ for more info.
Username,Memory Latency,L3 Latency,DIMMs,Die Type,Rank,Memory Clock,IF Frequency ...
4400 is still below the rated boost clock, if you need to underclock the processor for cooling issues you need a better cooler
I'm only using a cheap 240mm liquid cooler
Please re-read what I said
First, I only randomly picked 4400
And I'm asking for specific points, either at a fixed frequency or voltage, how much I should expect
Eg if I set a static voltage of 1.25 to the core
And I get 4400 (or whatever number)
How good is that frequency, at that fixed voltage?
Unfortunately it seems that nobody has the data yet
Ok I misunderstood the intent behind the questions then
How do I check what FLCK my 5600x is running at?
Normally it's equal to your RAM rated speed divided by 2, so if your memory is running at 3200 fclk will auto set to 1600.
I’m thinking about overclocking my evga 3070 ultra and I’m not sure where to start
For easy mode overclock, nvidia has an auto overclock scanner built in to geforce experience now
Just make sure to crank up the voltage, power, and temperature limits so it's not throttling
Thanks
What Temps should I be trying to keep my crucial ballistix at for overclocking?
It varies, I've seen some lose stability at 65 and some at 55. If you're worried get an active cooler.
Also will a 750w 80+ gold psu work for oc my 3070
Um 1 sec
You can check the pins in #cases-psu-and-cooling and look up how good your PSU is there
But realistically, a decent 650W should be able to handle a 3070
Evga supernova 750 ga
B tier, should be good
Yeah
Even if you overclock both GPU and CPU it'll handle it fine
Updated my BIOS to AGESA 1200 from 1100, now I can boot FCLK 2000.
Anybody know if I'll catch WHEA errors with memtest (bootable test)?
Probably not, you should be good if it boots but always good to test anyway
I know people who booted with higher FCLK with AGESA 1200 but got WHEA errors in windows
Won't know until you try
It mostly comes down to compatibility and binning at that frequency
I'm aware. Was just curious if there was a way to test, particularly with memtest
Well WHEA literally means Windows Hardware Error Architecture so probably can't test for that outside Windows
Other errors might be thrown in memtest that would indicate potential problems, but you won't know for sure how stable it is until you test it yourself
WHEA errors are processor related, not memory. It'll show as a core error most likely
fclk errors could manifest as whea errors
They do. It shows in Windows logs as Core errors, varying most of the time between cores
fclk errors = cpu/bus interconnect whea errors
So, currently this is my crucial ballistix 4x8 gb ram oc any changes?
I got my 3200 ram to boot overclocked to 3600 16-20-20-40 1.4v
Running memtest now, fingers crossed. If this passes I might try lowering voltage.
B-die ftw
Memtest86+ specifically
It's bootable
If you really want to test your RAM overclock, use Testmem5 with the anta777 profile for stability.
Ran stability tests all night so ram seems stable at 3600. I'm getting about 10% higher scores on single core benchmarks too.
Yeah I'm doing that next
@forest radish wait, did you just not have a post code and added a PCIe post code card or am I going crazy
Do you guys think my timings are fine based on the picture above?
It was 15-18-15-15-36 at 3866 crucial ballistix
@dull ginkgo https://www.ebay.com/itm/In-stock-PC-diagnostic-2-digit-pci-est-computer-for-code-post-analyzer-tester/143490744382
Hmm
They make some with pcie fingers on the other side as well
@proven canopy I thought it might've actually been on the GPU lol
Useful for all things overclocking
That card is pci
Ah
How they can make those for $3 - I have no idea
They’re magic tho, I’d buy one if they were 40
Interesting
Man, I'm keeping that on hand for diagnosing peoples PC's that don't have any kind of diagnostics at all
Can be hard to know what the actual post codes mean however. Gotta spend some time with a board to learn what means what since there’s no documentation
It comes with a manual, but the post codes it throws are unique to every board I’ve used it on
Well it seems to be the same for a given chipset/platform
Like it’s the same on the two 990fx boards I’ve used it on, but it’s totally different on that p5e3 premium
Yeah, probably different BIOS types
For whoever uses the per-core voltage offset (particularly negative offsets), how did you determine the offsets?
On zen 3 in particular
Every type of BIOS gives POST codes, it just takes something to read it sometimes. Even laptops give codes.
I got one of those testers years ago packaged with a power supply. It's come in handy dozens of times.
Would appreciate information on how best to use the curve optimizer for Zen 3.
Nevermind, I googled and found this guide, which seems decent enough

Anyone know about ram overclocking?
HI
I think this counts as overclocking 
Was wondering if i should/ could oc my ram a bit, atm i have one 300mhz stick and 2 3200mhz sticks and was wondering if it's worth overclocking the other stick so i could run all at 3200 or even cl14 instead of cl16
AMD or Intel?
And how the heck do you have a 300MHz stick?
Amd
i think he meant 3000mhz
3000 sorry
Ah ok
3 sticks is usually a bad idea. It'll force it into single channel mode.
In the BIOS there's options for RAM overclocking
So i should take out the 3000mhz stick?
@sudden torrent what option?
Yeah if you take out the 3000 and keep the other 2 sticks in slots 2 and 4 (counting the one closest to the processor as slot 1) you'll get a decent performance boost going into dual channel mode, and anything over 16GB you won't see much benefit from size
What motherboard? It varies.
Okay thanks
ASUS then, hang on I have a video tucked away
might be because i oced my ram
Yeah you can't overclock and DOCP at the same time
Yes i already have it like that just the oldest stick( 3000mhz) in between the newer sticks, would i be able to make them cl14 do you think then?
This is a basic guide teaching you how to overclock Ryzen RAM. I'm using the Asus bios in the Asus x470 Prime Pro motherboard. The memory used is Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200mhz. This is Hynix memory so the overclocking potential is more limited than Samsung RAM. I go over frequency and timing overclocks and give an idea of safe voltages.
Th...
Sorry for all the questions
AMD loves fast RAM, it's better to get it clocked as high as you can and then work on timings
Okay thanks 👍
Happy to help
Why doesn't 3 sticks run in one dual channel and one single channel mode btw? If you know
It's the way the BIOS handles the memory addressing
You'll always see recommended configs as either 2 or 4 sticks, 1 is ok for a web browser system but not a gaming rig
Ahh i see that's what i thought but wasn't sure
Even in the BIOS manual you'll see that as the recommendation
Okay thanks
depends on the platform, most will give you dual channel bandwidth for the first x GB of memory
Some platforms won't even post , - I think
Intender told me this
Would X570 post?
If I did 2x16 and 2x8
Actually nevermind, the timings on the 2x8 kit aren’t very easily configured
And it’s CL18 3600mhz
you can™️ it'll just be hard
there's a part in the new linus video about that lol
Decent ram overclock
Could probaly push more voltage , but imma stay on the safer side
Idk if this is still an issue, but I read that there is sometimes problems setting the cas latency to an odd number timing. Should I be setting my cas to 16 or keep it at 15?
Probably not an issue still but test both and see if you get errors. Personally I'd do 16, maybe 17, but I like to play it safe.
yeah
If you're on AMD, you'll have gear down mode (GDM) enabled by default, and it will effectively round your CL to the nearest even number. So in reality you'd be running CL16, not 15. It shouldn't affect stability though, it's just overwriting your setting
(From my understanding)
Pretty much
I turned off gear down mode so I am actually running cl15
hitting up to 105 mh/s on a 3080, -150,+1500, avg t = 42C.. not bad
What's your memory junction temp? @upper plank Also, what model card?
Whats the wattage tho..
@proven canopy what is mem junction temp? evga ftw3, 260W @sterile flame
check in hwinfo, right under core temp
Isn’t mem junction the VRAM?
78 
Are you mining?
yeah
winter time helps, i stay just a little colder, pc stays a lil cooler
Sometimes I put my PC in the snow on my deck next to my gaming area and let it melt the deck
Nice, that's a really great temp for an unmodded card while mining

Guys you would not believe this
An rx 560 2gb 1 fan
How much higher do you think it will go
Here is the voltage
I will fry this drip
Hey, yeah i was looking into flex mode, and it was saying that 2 of 3 sticks would run dual channel and other single channel, is this right?
Well i was looking in general, but it's a gigabyte b450m ds3h
Linus mentioned it in his recent ram video
Ok, so the way I understand it, it works more like this. You have a 4Gb stick and an 8 GB stick. One in each channel, yeah?
But couldn't find a definite answer
Once you go above 8 GB of useage, the last 4 GB runs in single channel mode
Think so but idk, I'm using 3 8gb sticks
And was wondering if its disabling dual channel
IN that case, 16GB will be dual channel but the last 8 GB will be single channel
BUt I'm not sure if AMD works the same way Intel does
Lemme investigate some more
That's what i thought, bit someone saying it would run single channel on all
Thanks, greatly appreciated
Okay perfect, thanks, i thought it would run 16gb dual and 8gb single but was hard to find a definite answer thanks
Yeah, definitely flex mode
You have it right, 16 GB in dual channel, if you go above that, it's single channel
Honestly, do you need more than 8 GB?
Sorry 16 GB?
Thanks 🙏, not really but i had bought it close to Christmas around when one of the ram manufacturers had earthquakes and was upgrading form 8gb and was about 40 or 45 for 8gb and 10€ for 2x 8 so was like might as well
Ah, OK. It'll slow down above 16 GB useage but probably won't be noticeable
That's fine, i doubt expect it to go above 16 but thanks for your help :)
Welcome!
Also keep in mind
Mixing and matching ram sticks, all of them will only run at the slowest rated speed and timings
So if you have a 3000 mhz stick and 3200 mhz stick, all will run at 3000
Yes i am aware of that, just curious about it yesterday (knew it was going to run at 3000 mhz) 2 are 3200mhz but was wondering if it's even worth trying to get the 3000mhz stick to 3200 to run with the other 2
Honestly, for the 200 mhz bump, no
Fair but was thinking i could possibly get to 3400 or something doubt it's much of a diff tho
That is going to depend on what chips it has
This is a fantastic RAM explanation but a bit of a long read https://github.com/integralfx/MemTestHelper/blob/master/DDR4 OC Guide.md
Thanks, they're Corsair vengeance so from what i found they seem to be samsung b dies
i overclocked my i5 3570k to 4.2 ghz
yes lol
fun
I checked using some software and it said they were samsung dies anyway but idk, does Samsung to do other dies?
Ahh well idk which die then
Thought it was m die???
Thaiphoon burner can tell you what die you have, and it's usually correct. If it's tricky to find what you're looking for in the SPD data just do a screen grab and post it here, we'll tell you.
Forky kept telling me about Samsung e die whenever I was referring to micron rev e as e die
So I'm pretty sure it's Samsung e die
I'm running cooler at 5.2ghz 1.4v than I was 5ghz 1.36 in my old case.
4gbit sammy e die is decent, clocks pretty high, just needs pretty loose trcd and trp
I think a bit worse than 8gbit rev e even
But it does much better tRFC
Oh, and good voltage tolerance too
Not as good as B or 4gb D but you know
Also
There is 8gb E die

Me when I’m told my C die is B die
Is it ok to overclock GT 1030? yes Gddr5
heh
Why bother lol
1 more frame
smh will get you a whole 5 more FPS at 720p
Is CAS 18 to CAS 15 Benefitical to any game?
I was think going from 3600MHz C18 2 x 32 GBs to 4000Mhz C15 8 x 4 GBs
What CPU?
3950x with X570 chipset. Planning to up either 5900x or 5950x when it is more available
4000mhz C15 will be 100% better on Zen3, once you get it
You could sell the old kit
What die is it?
Do you know?
Off the top of my head, I think it is a Micron B die but don't take it for curtain.
Am babysitting this second
Or actually
Want the amazon link?
I’d prefer a screen cap
Hate this phone
Wait you aren’t level 3 yet
Yeah I guess a link will do
Honestly, I just joined like months ago but never really use typed in the server til now
Send the link
B die
Yeah, that’ll be a damn good kit for Zen3.
Extra speed useless on Zen2 tho, so you will have to keep it underclocked until then for the sake of a safe clock
Unless you can get a stable clock on 4000C15
Which is likely
And that's the thing. It heard that zen2 can't have a f-clock no more than 1800MHz
With Zen 3, it is okay have it at 2000MHz
It technically can, but you need to have a lucky piece of silicon
And I can send you the link to all my parts to PCPartPicker if needed
No need really
Np, knight
I have built my first rig nearly a year ago, and still going strong.
Same
I built my first rig in 2015, still have the potato, though in a newer case
Got a 3070, 3800x, 2x16 3600C16, on a TUF X570-PLUS with a Wraith Prism all in a P400a
I'll leave my rig here if needed. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Goldenknight01/saved/QWqVcf

#DDR4 #RAM
Oh boy, a lovely Buildzoid video while I wait for stability testing my RAM
Do you guys (and gals) think I should keep my memory at 4133 with my fclk at 2000 or should I do 4000 and tighten the timings? I know there's the latency penalty for having it out of sync but how bad is it really?
I could possibly also try to do 4200+ on the memory
synced
Did some testing, with the same timings 4000 synced is about 3% faster overall latency than 4133/2000
So the latency penalty does have a measurable effect on performance, but faster speeds would likely negate that penalty.
Nice.
ugh. I wonder if ASUS will send a new board.
If so, imma need to prob tweak voltages.
Now do actual benchmarks instead of just latency
I would but with how many times it crashed while overclocking I think I corrupted my bios, I can't have xmp and raid on at the same time
lol what
I know, it's the weirdest thing. Even my cmos clear button doesn't fix it. I'm reflashing now.
Reflashing seems to have helped. Suggestions for benchmarks that will show memory differences?
@tall pelican What do you suggest for benchmarks?
I do shadow of the tomb raider at 800x600 lowest settings, but any game benchmark should show ~10% hit from sync vs desync
Why would you create a raid in bios?
I know, amd and hardware raid isn't great. I made the array a while ago for testing and never changed it. I've got all my OS's installed with the raid driver now and switching back to ahci is a pain and probably a reinstall.
Here's an odd issue for you. My RAM has two XMP profiles, one for 4133 and one for 4000 and better timings. I want to use the second one so I can run fclk at 1:1 (I already tested and it runs fine at 2000). However, my motherboard only reads the first profile, whether I select profile 1 or 2. It also shows the basic info for each profile on the overclocking screen, and both profiles show the 4133 profile, even though under the SPD info tab it lists both profiles.
I tried manually setting the timings from the second profile, but it refuses to boot, so I want to try using the XMP profile but that won't read properly. Ideas?
Board?
Oh I thought I mentioned it lol
MSI Gaming Plus X470
This isn't a new issue either, my last set of RAM had 2 profiles and it only loaded the first profile on that set too.
Well, consider the board only lists 3466 as A-XMP, I'm surprised it'll even do the 4000
That's what's weird here too, it loads the 4133 XMP profile with no adjustments (besides fclk), I can even tighten the timings with it loaded still
My last set of RAM was 3200 with the same problem
Seems the latest BIOS is a Beta version also
It's done this as long as I've had it
I'd have to dig deeper into the X470 and XMP support
The latest BIOS is the new agesa update, needed for 5000 series
And specifically the BIOS chip used
Note this isn't the max board, just the regular
I would guess it's a BIOS information limitation as notated by this: This BIOS does not support below Bristol Ridge CPU due to BIOS rom size limitation:
But, gotta dig
Looking through the RAM list
The only QVL 4133/4000 they have is Samsung B-die
This is B-Die memory, my last set was too
This board is listed in the compatibility list of the RAM
What ram is it? Is one of the profiles A-XMP vs XMP?
So XMP 1 is the 4133 and XMP 2 is the 4000 with tighter timings?
Yes, grabbed screen shots of the bios one sec
Apologies for bmp, it's what bios saved it as
It's fine
I have it set to MSI "Memory Try It!" 4000 right now but XMP has even tighter timings than that "overclock"
I almost feel like using thaiphoon burner and swapping the XMP profiles in SPD 😅
I still think it's Beta BIOS related. Loading XMP 1 but not XMP 2.
Also, the XMP 2.0 is the "Extreme" profile. IDK at this point.
It SHOULD work with all the timings at manual
It's done this on every BIOS version I've used though, maybe just a quirk but I couldn't find anyone else mentioning this
Right
Im finding a few threads here and there with using XMP 2.0 profiles and stability on that board
2 or 4 sticks?
AGESA 1.2.0.1 came out with some bug fixes on a beta version very recently, haven't paid too much attention to it, but might have some ram fixes, I'll take a look
2 sticks
I did just notice something though
XMP2 calls for 1.35 V
In the BIOS screenshot, it's at 1.4
Doesn't look like it has to do with ram, nvm.
The "memory try it" from MSI sets it 1.45, I set to 1.4
I don't have XMP enabled atm
SPD says 1.35
1.4 for profile 1 though
Ok, back up
I missed something
So it will run Profile 2 at 4000 mhz but not profile 1 at 4133?
I know both XMP profiles show 4133
Other way around, profile 1 runs at 4133, and that works
No matter which profile I select it chooses that one
SO on the Try It side, try 1.35V because that's what the SPD calls for
I don't know what to do about reading the XMP profiles
Might be a board issue
Or a BIOS chip issue
I couldn't get it to boot when I tried setting the timings manually at 4000
If I go lower than 18-21-21-41 it hates life
But the XMP says it should go lower, 18-19-19-39
DO you leave all the other voltages at Auto?
