Hello everyone,
I have moved from playstation 4 pro to computer. The computer is just to play games, 1/2h a day connected to my 4k HDR Tv.
I wanted something that could handle 4k ultra.
The last computer build I have made was 20 years ago, so I had to read a lot (probably not enough) before made the purchase and I have now this build:
Amd Ryzen 7 1700
MasterLiquid 120 Lite
GigaByte AB350 Gaming 3
2x8Gb Hyperx Predator hx432c16pb3k2/16
Kingston 500Gb SSD
GigaByte Aorus 1080Ti Xtreme Edition
Seasonic Focus+ 850w Platinum
Corsair 200R
+4 140mm Corsair fans.
I already have changed my motherboard two times.
First I have bought Asus Prime X370 Pro, but I could not boot with more than 2933mhz on my ram.
I have checked online and saw that ASRock X370 Gaming X have my memory on the compatibility list, so that was my second try. Despite that, with ASRock I could not boot with more then 3066mhz on the ram, no matter what ram voltage I use.
So I have checked the online reviews for the ram and they were using Gigabyte X370 Gaming 5.
On Gigabyte website I saw that my memory were on the compatbility list of AB350 Gaming 3, and because I am not going to connect many things on the board, I saved 40€ (from my previous two boards) and went to the AB350 Gaming 3.
With AB350 Gaming 3 I am able to set XMP Profile 1. The system doesn`t boot unless I use at least 1.38v in ram. With 1.38, the boot sometimes fails and enters in safe mode running the rams @ 2400mhz. Only if I set in bios 1.39v for ram, the system always boot fine.
That is my first question/problem, despite setting this voltage, I can see max voltage on CPUID HWMonitor 1,404 (will post some pictures in the end of the post) and sometimes 1,414. Will this be safe for my memory kit? I know I have a good airflow on my box but I don`t wan`t to toast them.
I was able to change the RAM @ 3200mhz to 16-16-16-16-35-74-1T and it`s working fine and doesn`t fail on stress test. The XMP profile 1 was 3200mhz 16-18-18-18-36-74-1T.
Regarding my ryzen 7, I am now using, 3825mhz with Dynamic Vcore +0,084 and Dynamic Vcore SOC +0,180.
The system runs stable, I can run Aida64 CPU and FPU stress test and Cinebench R15 with no problem.
Cinebench score 1697.
The temperatures running Aida64 stress test doesn`t pass the 60ºC (Aida64 reading) for 30 minutes test.
Now my second question, looking at Aida64 temperatures, it looks like that TMPIN 2 (motherboard cpu reading?), instead of AMD Ryzen temperature (according to CPUID HWMonitor). That also happens in other hardware information software. There is always 10ºC diference. What temperatures should I look at? At what temperatures should I be worried?
Playing one hour PUBG, TMPIN2 MAX was 48ºC, and AMD Ryzen 58ºC.
Regarding VRM temperatures, with this OC the max I have reached is 81ºC (TMPIN5) running stress test. At what temperatures should I be worried?
The last question, whit my build and the temperatures I am reaching now, do I have room to increase the ryzen OC or should I stay like it is now? I already tested 3900 but it looks like it needs lot`s of vcore to run.
Sorry about my poor English.
