    Mb temperatures to high ?

    No, they are different.

    Mb temperatures to high ?

    I would recommend using HWInfo and also ignore some 110++ temp on TMPIN sensor as those are default max temp (not actual temp). The last time I use HWMonitor was when I still have intel i5 4570 at 2015.

    What Mouse and Keyboard Are You Using Right Now?

    Been using these vertexseries combo (keeb vx 9 pro, mouse gx107) for 4 weeks, and so far so good. Bought 2nd for ~$34 shipping, so cheap, yet feels very comfortable when using. The keyboard layout helps my work as I use excel daily as my main job. The outemu blue switch adds crispiness when...

    Best CPU's of all time?

    For me it's i7 920 and i3 530 as both processors introduced me to overclocking world. That i3 530 run strong daily @4ghz at only 1.25v only, using stock cooler (run from 2011 before I sold it at 2019).

    Sold my 5900x... But which X3D and when.

    I would run to newegg if I'm nearby. But damn I live so far away haha. My previous rig (2500k) just got dismantled yesterday so that deal is very tempting.

    Sold my 5900x... But which X3D and when.

    I found this article, and for $500 this combo is bomb!!! https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-ryzen-7-7700x-x670e-motherboard-and-32gb-ddr5-6000-combo-available-for-less-than-500 If I were you, I will take this combo, use 7700x while waiting then upgrade to 7800x3d once it releases next month.

    5800X3D - Ram instability?

    You can try cleaning the gold finger on both ram using cloth or eraser. One of my friend Viper 4400c19 kit has encountered the same issue you face, then he tried that and his ram kit work normally again.

    Bent pins while installing 13th gen contact plate, the ram is now not working properly

    Try to repair / straighten the bent pin first, very carefully. And then propose RMA on that board. ;)

    Overclocking with Adrenalin sucks!

    Do you have 2 rigs? One with XTX gpu, the other is using Z690 with bent cpu socket pin?

    Bent pins while installing 13th gen contact plate, the ram is now not working properly

    If it's still under warranty, Asus shall honor it. All you need to do is propose RMA to them. Usually they will propose replacement to other model or even better, upgrade to Z790 board.

    Bent pins while installing 13th gen contact plate, the ram is now not working properly

    Actually, the best dimm setup is to install at slot A2 & B2. The arrangement is like this: CPU socket - A1 - A2 - B1 - B2. IF you plugged your ram on slot A2 & B2, then it's already the right thing to do.

    so many games just close to desktop

    If it happened to almost your game, is it possible due to bad drive / SSD? some corrupt on windows file? If so, check the SSD condition, and then if it still happens, then maybe it's time to re-install the windows. If you have 2nd rig, try testing your 4090 on that rig.

    5800X3D - Ram instability?

    From OP's update: 1. His 5800x3d can run just fine the 4000mhz kit at freq 3600mhz. 2. His 3600mhz xmp kit will be tested to his other rig, hopefully that 3600 xmp kit doesn't catch anything bad.

    Going to try the Asrock 670E TaiChi.

    Those 3 use newest bios? Do you max your mem to 6000~6200? I've been using mostly ASRock board for AM4 and they are very pleasant to use, simple bios layout, cheap price, fully compatible with almost all ddr4 ram kits out there.

    Anyone “upgraded” from 5900X to 5800X3D for gaming?

    Yup, ever since PBO introduce for ryzen 2000 series, I've never used it for daily settings. Better use all core overclock even though the single core performance suffer a bit (~3% max). I've noticed the pattern became apparent when using ryzen 5600x pbo (single core boost to 4850mhz) against all...

    5800X3D - Ram instability?

    The OP's ram worked flawlessly on his previous 5800x system with the same board. I guess that 32gb ram kit doesn't like his x3d chip. the 4000 kit, 32gb kit also? that's quite weird haha. if the 4000 kit is stable using XMP, then your x3d probably has better IMC for average ryzen 5000 out there...

    How much RAM you got?

    On my SFF ASRock x300 setup (Athlon 3000g, X300 with bios support to 5000 series), I use 16gb x 2 sticks of Hynix AFR & MFR (dual rank kits): Running at default XMP 2666mhz c18 1.2v for now:

    5800X3D - Ram instability?

    You tried that using both sticks? Your board and ram are fine, I just think that it's probably your x3d has lower IMC capability to handle dual rank 3600mhz xmp, that's why I propose to set 1.15v on your SoC voltage. Ok, how about re-try this step: 1. clear CMOS 2. install 1 stick to B2 3. boot...

    5800X3D - Ram instability?

    OP: 1. Have you update your bios to the latest? 2. You ram is 32gb kit, means it's probably dual rank. I suppose for new chip installation it will need to be installed at 1 stick first (B2), and then try to run it at default, save, boot to windows and then turn off the PC. Try installing the 2nd...

    What are the best options for a MiniPC or ITX build?

    You link the pic from the TPU review yet you yourself fail to see that PIC already included the performance per watt based on the max boost clock speed both Intel 13th gen & Ryzen 7000 reached??? Whatever suit your narrative regarding your choice (and I already told you whatever suit your...

    Destroyed motherboard while installing. Really?

    any updates? how about you run single stick first plugging to dimm B2 (when you receive it again from the seller), and then try to run it default, boot into windows, and run memtest or TM5 to check. If one stick is fine, then try the other stick, same on dimm B2. Both sticks fine? then try to...

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    Ryzen 7000 actually not thermally constraints: due to it's high TDP, it will always try to maximize the boosted clockspeed using any headroom left by your cooling capacity. It will boost until it reaches 95c. Exception: Ryzen 7000 non-X, because the default TDP is only 65w, and it boosts a bit...

    X670E motherboard with four 6000mhz DIMMS? Impossible right?

    Is this your assumption or have you really tried it? If it's true, IMO, it's more of limitation of Ryzen 7000's IMC (AMD's part) or the AGESA not yet optimized to run 4 dimms on higher freq than supported (5200mhz). In this screenshot from official AMD website, the supported memory speed for 4...

    What are the best options for a MiniPC or ITX build?

    Improvement on memory overclocking, other features tied to RPL, and native support for RPL cpus. Regarding the memory overclocking, if you ever consider to run more than 7200mhz with vdd/tx more than 1.45v for daily, then I'm afraid mini itx scheme will be very hard to do unless you go water...

    AMD's Reviewers Guide for the Ryzen 9 7950X3D Confidential Leaks

    OK to run ASUS motherboard with RAM in slots 2 and 4 instead of 1 and 3?

    it's not a big deal, mate. happy to help around here ;)(y)
  33. riev90

    OK to run ASUS motherboard with RAM in slots 2 and 4 instead of 1 and 3?

    Yes. And that error on your first try installing those sticks on A1 and B1 probably has to do with Ryzen 7000's IMC or AGESA not yet optimized to run those 2 sticks on A1 / B1 slots.

    OK to run ASUS motherboard with RAM in slots 2 and 4 instead of 1 and 3?

    can you give your mobo's pic on which are slots 1 and 3? AFAIK, the best dimm installation for 4 slots mobo area at slot A2 and B2, but will have to confirm based on you mobo's pic.

    5600X Overclocking advice

    100 is the auto value. for ASRock AM4, sometimes exactly 100, sometime 99.8mhz or 100.2 mhz so around ± 0.2%.

    5600X Overclocking advice

    Almost MSI AM4 bios have same layout / interface, so I assume your MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus has the same interface with that screenshot. You can always try to squeeze a bit of performance by increasing BCLK / FCH clock beyond auto (in this case, 100mhz), but it will take another time and harder...
  37. riev90

    5600X Overclocking advice

    That's for BCLK overclocking. Better leave it auto or 100mhz. Once you set it above 100mhz, it will affect your MCLK clock and your core clock overall, thus will require more burn-in test to verify it's stability

    Ryzen 7900 comes with Wraith Prism RGB, correct? If you it to be silent, you can limit the fan speed in the bios.

    What are the best options for a MiniPC or ITX build?

    Sorry can't find it in your post above. Or are you actually referring to this: If so, Zen4, in this case Ryzen 7900 matches the performance of Intel 12900K/S (intel's 12th gen, last year flagship) and trailed a bit Intel 13700K (intel 13th gen) while only using 90w. Check the review here: 1...
