Update your bios, get free memory performance

[Lord of Shadows]

With the new bios for ryzen 2 thread rippers I was able to bump my memory clocks up quite a bit

I was able to boot into windows at 3800mhz 16 18 18 38 and 3266mhz 14 14 14 34 where before I would insta-crash at those clocks, it looks like the 3800mhz isn't stable, but so far so good on 3266mhz

3733 for good measure: https://imgur.com/a/rj35b5y

Think I'll run 3733 as it seems to help L3 Cache some (assuming it doesn't crash on me)

I updated my BIOS once... Instant handjob.

Always and forever, Amen.

A recent bios update made my DDR4 3400 actually usable. In the earlier updates my system would only boot at jedec spec rather than XMP. Now my system has no problem booting with XMP enabled and my overclock applied.

Damn impressive. I had 3133mhz cas 12 working great with my 2400g. On dual channel config, it was slower than 3466 cas 14, but on quad channel systems, the extra speed might not matter as much.

These memory settings are amazing for a 1st gen part.

I would really like to see some benchmarks against TR2 or SKLx with these settings.

Now my memory runs at the correct speeds. Haven't tried overclocking it yet.

Gigabyte just came out with a F3 bios for my X470 Aorus Gaming 5, it updates it to AGESA 1.0.0.4. So is this the current AGESA or does anyone have a higher version for the X470 chipset? From what I read it seems AGESA 1.0.0.4 has been out for awhile, since at least spring of 2017.
