Hi guys, another update on ECC with Ryzen 7.
If you remember my first post, my second computer had Gigabyte board and ECC didn't work. So, I replaced it with newer processor (Ryzen 7 5800X) and ASUS PRIME B550-PLUS which worked for me for about 2 years with ECC enabled. But after about 1.5...
You are welcome! I can update you that this motherboard accepts 64GB of aforementioned ECC RAM, everything works perfectly with 4 sticks at 2666MT/s. Multi-level bit ECC at cheapo ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS. As I can't have too much downtime, I tortured it for one night with Prime95 large FFTs for 70%...
Takes like what, 5 minutes tops? And then you good to use your computers for months or years to come? I adjust my fan curves by keyboard, I even write down every percentage setting so in next BIOS update I don't loose my settings. I don't have a problem to spend few minutes on something...
Hi guys,
I post this so other people who look into ECC with Ryzens will have some more choices.
Recently I had some nasty and silent corruption storage errors on my server, btrfs checksums caught it red handed and one of my programs kept crashing on corrupted file. Server has 2x Crucial MX500...
No, BIOS doesn't have settings for that. You will have to use keyboard like most of us do, or increase DPI in your mouse by pressing a button on a mouse, providing you have decent mouse which allows that.
Yes. Changing resolution is universal and works everywhere - basically this script changes resolution for you (so you don't need to go to Display settings in Linux menu) and then runs your game and then reverts resolution back to what it was. You just need to adjust it to your resolution and...
Hi all,
I wanted to share something for those Linux friends who play on Wine or Steam.
Recently I stumbled upon a game which stubbornly didn't have any resolution change setting - Age of Empires II (2013). I have 4K monitor with 139.87 PPI. Units are tiny and interface in that resolution is...
Try to reseat usb connector, if you did troubleshooting and everything comes down to case being responsible, then get an RMA on it and send it back. I also have Fractal case but R5, and never had any problem with its front USB ports.
My two oldest drives are 1TB Hitachi. Bought them already used with many hours on the clock. Spinrited them few times over and over and all bad sectors have been identified and spared out. For last two years or so there hasn't been a new bad sector.
I use these drives in RAID1 configuration...
First of all, go to windows Event Viewer and check for errors on system tab. You might find reason for drive reporting online after 5 minutes not earlier.
Agree. Fix the real cause of noise. You can underclock/undervolt. Disable core boot. Possibilities are endless. X is a better chip which overclock better and behaves better at lower speeds. Stick with it :)
I haven't yet. Good tip, thanks. Will do probably in few weeks, as my machine works 24/7.
Yes I am so happy that it worked :) Normally people can use 2 sticks at 3200 MHz, some not even that. I here, got 4 sticks :) Tricky Ryzen has been tamed. I must have a one good chip here.
As my PC is...
Hi guys, finally comes the day of update. Additional 2 Flare X modules have arrived and they are exactly the same like previous ones.
I installed them carefully in the case:

Turned PC on, with 2400 MHz at first..Went up to 2666 MHz, booted ok.. Went higher... and...

Check this thread, people. Everybody who have same motherboard as me, especially.
That's thread I've created to ask about same as here, but one person told me about that VSOC chip dangerous voltage.
1.137V or 1.2V could be too high for...
I just stumbled upon a problem with my motherboard. Since last BIOS update, VSOC Voltage has raised on Auto setting to 1.2V. I changed it back to non-default "Normal" and it's now 1.087V. Can you check in HWinfo64 or in your BIOS, what is your VSOC Voltage?
Jealous :) My motherboard is far more basic, but I still been running 2x 8GB @ 3200 MHz for last 1.5 years or so, with Ryzen 1600X.
We'll see how that goes with 4x 8GB.
I bought another 2 sticks 8GB each so I will have 4 sticks in total, exactly the same ones.
Worst case I will purchase 2x 16GB and install it, if it's any faster than 4x 8GB, then I will return the two 8GB I just purchased and sell used old ones. Package arriving around monday from Amazon...
Just FYI, I've got:
G.SKILL F4-3200C14D-16GFX 16 GB (8 GB x 2) Flare X Series DDR4 3200 MHz PC4-25600 CL14 Dual Channel Memory Kit - Black
And it's working 3200 MHz at 14-14-14-34-48 1T. No adjustments necessary, after first boot (it's 2400 MHz at first boot) you chose 3200 MHz, save, reboot...
Thanks for your explanation. I just hope I will get that better chip.
Watch this guy:
He made benchmarks between 3200 and 2933. Results are varying from 0% up to 7% performance increase (especially in synthetic test and Ashes of Singularity benchmark). But he used slightly less threaded CPU...
So currently I am thinking to purchase 2 sticks 16GB each, to replace old kit. Like those:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gskill-F4-3200-°C16D-D4-3200-32GB-C16-Ripv-1-35-Ripjawsv/dp/B0171GQR0C/...
I've done benchmarks when I built this rig. All results were showing me, that 3200 MHz is the way to go. With gaming benchmarks or simple tasks, 3200 MHz was winning. I don't want to compromise on that, just because I want to add more memory.
And why I need more memory? Because of my current...
That's confusing. Most shitty mobos will have higher speed with two 16GB sticks. But premium product like Asus Crosshair will have actually lower speed with two dual rank sticks?
What is then the recipe for highest achievable speed with 32GB RAM on Ryzen? I am really determined to get 32GB, I...
Do you think I can swap my current RAM:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06XFT7DF9
To this one:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0171GQR0C
And I will keep 3200MHz? What is the difference between these sticks? Are my current ones single rank, and 16GB ones are essentially dual rank, you...
Hello guys,
I have following hardware installed:
G.SKILL F4-3200C14D-16GFX 16 GB (8 GB x 2) Flare X Series DDR4 3200 MHz PC4-25600 CL14 Dual Channel Memory Kit - Black
GA-AB350-Gaming 3 (rev. 1.x)
AMD Ryzen 1600 X
So I have this working at 3200 MHz perfectly. I specifically chosen this memory...
