@PPBottle should work if it is also an AMI Bios. DM me if you wanna know more.

sorry. wrong post

Thank Reous, the PState OC worked !

thanks for the feedback

Thanks for Bios, never could get 3333mhz stable with good timing, using stilt and some RZQ/3 for the bottom 3.

Anyone got tip to improve on copy?

(First post, was always lurking, never posted)

Also I'm still experimenting on 3466mhz, wanted to get a stable 3333mhz first before I move to 3466mhz!

Reous · Jul 10, 2017

I only know the settings from The Stilt. I guess you are using them already?

Do you guys have BankGroupSwapAlt in AMD CBS > UMC Common Options > Memory Mapping?

If so on 1 DPC SR kit set as Enabled, this will improve that aspect.

So basically 1 DPC SR kit

BankGroupSwap: Disabled
BankGroupSwapAlt: Enabled

Is optimal setup currently as guided by The Stilt.

3.8 / 3333 Fast on my rig:-

Interesting, I get more with BankGroupSwap on for my single rank, if I disable, my read falls to 51k and same for write. My copying also goes down by 1k, so idk where I'm going wrong. Also how is your FSB 100? Mine always goes around 99.8/6

hsn · Jul 11, 2017

trying hcimemtest 400%
yes this look like stable

I linked you the information yesterday when you asked in the C6H OC thread. I will copy paste here again for you

The default configuration is BankGroupSwap = Enabled, BankGroupSwapAlternative = Disabled.

These two options are mutually exclusive, meaning they can both be disabled but they cannot be enabled simultaneously.

Disabling BankGroupSwap will improve the real world performance (by couple percent), however the reported bandwidth (e.g. AIDA) decreases by < 6%. Enabling BankGroupSwapAlternative has nearly the same positive effect on the real world performance, while the reported bandwidth remains at the same level with BankGroupSwap = Enabled.

Neither of the BankGroupSwap options should be touched, unless 1 DPC SR modules are used.

Quote:

If you are using dual rank or 2 DPC single rank modules, you don't touch these options at all. This results in BankGroupSwap = Enabled and BankGroupSwapAlternative = Disabled (the configuration I was using).

With 1 DPC single rank configuration you should either disable both of them, or set BankGroupSwapAlternative = Enabled.

Enabling BankGroupSwapAlternative has the same positive effect on the real world performance as disabling BankGroupSwap does, however it doesn't have it's down sides (i.e. the lower reported bandwidth figures).

Regarding BCLK readings in SW please view section The base-clock (BCLK) > Readings of BCLK in monitoring SW in this thread.

Thanks OP!

I will give this a shot soon. I was pretty miffed to find I can only overclock with a fixed voltage/clock on this board (unless ignoring the bios altogether and using zenstates in windows). I haven't had to deal with that kind of BS since nehalem, pretty much every Intel board ive used since then has allowed overclocking + idle clocks.

I see people posting that p state overclocking will be coming "soon" but I am highly sceptical, its already on the CH6. I think Asus will keep it as a premium feature

Hopefully I am wrong.

Thanks for this, just did a longer memory test, after 4 hours it came with 2 errors using HCI Memtest

, could be due to the heat, but what timing should I change? Any ideas?

You could try to set:
tFAW = 22
tWR = 15

and test:
The values between 60 and 96 ohms for ProcODT, .
The Command Rate at 2T.

CLDO_VDDP may also need to be adjusted.

Anyways, I doubt the errors found by Memtest are caused by the heat.
My last test at 3200 Mhz with 16 instances, each testing 880 Mo (to cover almost all my 16 Go) until more than 2900 % of completion got three errors but as my RAM has huge heatsink and the air current is pretty good in my PC case, I'm pretty sure the errors came from the RAM itself or a weakness of the IMC.

In other words, even if Memtest find only one error during a whole night of tests, the only explanation is that the RAM is not stable yet.

Stilt did say to turn off ALT if you want the full benefit, I'll try to find the post

gupsterg · Jul 15, 2017

The posts by The Stilt are in OP of my thread word for word.

As I re-repeat so much in several threads I''ll just do a screenie, please right click image and open in new tab to view.

And regarding your RAM setup in post 32, seems too tight on some settings, again see my thread RAM info section and there is link to The Stilt's timings. I use 3333MHz Fast UHQ BGSD BGSAE @ VDIMM: 1.375V with SOC 1.05V and you have the results in the quote above.

Diablosbud · Jul 16, 2017

@Reous My friend was curious and I was hoping you could please answer, what does the "/GAN" command do to the flashing utility? I was getting memory errors until we figured out to utilize it.

Reous · Jul 16, 2017

Quote:

/GAN is undocumented key meant to flash all blocks regardless to any software locks

I also tried first /P /B /K but got an memery error. Bios was flashed successful but every error message is confusing. Thats why im using GAN

This is from Stilt as well

Under his 4 timing post

MrPhilo · Jul 16, 2017

Using Stilt fast and slow gives me more errors,

All the errors relate to copying, what are some timing I could relax for copy side?
