Future Xtreme owner reporting in as well. Haven't pre-ordered yet (amazon US doesn't have it available yet, or I haven't been able to find it) but will be purchasing this weekend along with the 3900X. Tempted to hold off until Silicon Lottery releases pricing for their binned procs but still feel very confident the first wave of procs will all overclock quite well so I might just send it and see how I can do myself overclocking it. I was able to get my 1920X to 4.225ghz on all 12 cores/24 threads.

For reference, I will be replacing my Threadripper 1920X and Zenith Extreme for them which is this build:

Can’t find the Xtreme anywhere for sale. Newegg says 7/12 for stock. Ordered my 3900x and ready to go. C’mon!!!

NDA is up so lets talk!

4 sticks 3733 isnt a problem. I can do 4x4000 with XMP, 2x4266 with XMP. Those are the only kits I have tried thus far. 4x3733 should be a cake walk.

Great to hear!

Since you can divulge some info now... did any waterblock manufacturers contact you guys about doing VRM and/or south bridge blocks? It’s always interesting seeing blocks come out with boards either already included or being released the same week as the actual board does. Being that the X570 chip runs so hot, it’d make since for (probably) multiple waterblock companies to contact the big board companies on getting the PCB layout early. Also, any reason why the Aorus Xtreme is being released after every other board? Newegg says stock on the 12th.

Thanks man!

Newegg opened up Pre-Orders for the Aorus Xtreme, but with the timing of everything, I'll end up only having the chance to get it all setup after I come back from vacation. Bummer!

FWIW I have a 3200mhz CL16 Gskill Trident Z kit that when at launch, WOULD NOT WORK with my Threadripper. All it took was some tweaking on voltage though. The XMP profile put it at 1.35v for 3200, but I had upped it to 1.375v and it posted. Did a few tests and all that, ended up at 1.4v and it's rock solid stable. I would suggest trying that to get those kits you're talking about at their advertised speeds. These Dimms can handle the slight bump in voltage no problem.

That all being said, it's interesting that I'm seeing the same memory issues that I saw when Threadripper first launched, even Ryzen 1000. I had thought the 3000s had a completely new/different IMC.

But then again, it's most likely just a BIOS setting or version that needs to be updated/fixed.

More times than not, you only update your BIOS if something is broken. Once it's solid and problem free, there's no need to update it. Stick with what works for you, since boards and BIOS can sometimes be very finicky.

I've had many boards in the past that I updated it without needing to and made new problems arise or brought back old problems I had since mitigated. Sometimes it's just not worth it to update if it's working already.

Because of the huge price difference, I feel bad saying this but...

I'm really glad I went with the Xtreme over the others.

I've had so many bad memories with motherboard fans that I had told myself never again.

Sorry you guys are having all these issues even after all these years I thought the fan dilemma would improve, BUT I'm glad to see Gigabyte actually caring to help people out. Makes me feel good on going with Gigabyte this time around rather than Asus.

Memory is pretty trivial on X570. I wouldn't use so much of the old logic to apply to this platform. Yes 2 sticks is easier than 4, however 4 sticks @ 3600 is not hard at all. Here's my system with 4 sticks @ 3600. Just enabled XMP... It wasn't even a full 4 stick kit, I combine 2 seperate kits which is also (usually) more difficult.

Hey Matt, are all the board’s dimms daisy chained? Or T-topology? Buildzoid has mentioned assuming they were daisy chained.

I want to make sure I get the correct ram kit for this platform.

Thank you!

 

[LiquidHaus]

I'll be receiving my Aorus Xtreme later today, though I won't be able to review it for a while since Best Buy is still screwing me over on getting my 3900X to me.

If you guys want to see anything specific, I will work on that once it's up and running!

 

[LiquidHaus]

Should we make our own thread about it? I also purchased the Extreme a few days ago. Should arrive Tuesday July 16th, 2019

I think I'm going to wait for the 3950X. That'll be perfect to gather up some money to off-set the balance due.

Oh hell, i misread the name, though you were this guy below, and BB is Best Buy.

I had thought about creating an Aorus Xtreme thread yesterday morning at work lol. I'll work on it today.

I got my Aorus Xtreme yesterday so I busted out the lightbox and went to work.

Here are some shots so far. So bummed I don't have my 3900X yet..

Absolutely love this board. There's definitely a conversation to be had about how much they're asking for this thing. But based on many reviewers with the most experience so far with this new platform, they have all claimed that the better the board, the better experience you'll have dealing with Ryzen 3000. Plus Buildzoid gave this board the title of "best X570 board". Can't wait to dive into this thing and get to tweaking.

Could someone upload a overclocking video of what there settings are with an aorus xtreme and a 3900x. I have mine running 4.3ghz on all cores but i would like to see how others are having theirs as well since i am learning still.

Will be getting the Gigabyte X570 AORUS XTREME after all with some issues with not getting delivery of some other parts I had tried to get earlier had to cancel those and try elsewhere and went with this overkill out of anger as it was in stock at least.
Will be pairing it with a Ryzen 7 3800X and putting it down under water with and try some 4x8Gb Micron E-die on it. Hope it works out and I really do hope the 3800X are better bin than the 3700X are.

I can confirm the same. I had this issue on my Aorus Master and I am still having it on the Extreme.

Ah you got the other one from Inet.se? I had mine ordered from Komplett.se but they wanted 500:- extra and did not have it in stock so like you I cancelled it and got one from Inet instead.

Hey guys!

I started a thread for X570 Aorus Xtreme owners, located here: https://www.overclock.net/forum/11-...0-gigabyte-x570-aorus-xtreme-owners-club.html

Anyway, Nighthog I am very interested in your endeavor with the Micron E-die kit.

I'm really having a hard time finding an E-die or B-die kit that is 2x16gb, since these boards are Daisy Chained, it'll be easier to overclock memory with 2 populated dimms rather than 4.

I'm getting really anxious to dive into this stuff with you guys. My 3900X wont get delivered for another two days but I'll be on vacation for two weeks when it gets delivered so i'm kinda going crazy coming to terms with that lol.

I’ve figured out that discoed makes the cpu constantly boost

Have you downloaded the latest chipset drivers from AMD? They solved the high frequency idle issues, I'd be willing to bet that discord would no longer engage boost with the new driver. Techpowerup did a nice article about it.

On a separate note...

Has anyone figured a trick out to unlink the ARGB ports and/or the RGB ports within RGBFusion?

I'm finding it quite annoying that these ports need to link up and be the same color. Should be able to set colors individually from one another.

Any help would be great, thanks!

 

[LiquidHaus]

@LiquidHaus have you tried an older verion of RGBFusion. I'm trying to add more orange to my build as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNcC4HajsoY
alternatively could try this PS Script w/ RGB-Fusion-Tool - https://github.com/windows2000bug/RGB-Fusion-Tool-PS/releases/tag/v0.3-beta

Thanks for the help!

I'm hesitant to try it out though since it lists no addressable RGB support, and I have just as many of those as normal RGB.

 

[LiquidHaus]

wow, so many questions so few answers in this thread.

Back in the day, OCN was full of people taking the time to solve problems on their own issues, and then return here with informative posts.

OCN has definitely changed over the years, but then again this is prime time early adopter craze that we're seeing here.

Lots of questions, with very little answers.

Personally, I am VERY thankful that I haven't had one single issue with anything other than wanting RGB headers to be controlled independently.

 

[LiquidHaus]

very interesting hearing about timings providing better performance. figured these were always frequency based.

I'll try and lower my timings some more on my 3200cl16 kit.

 

[LiquidHaus]

Am I missing something here?

CCD 0 > CCX 1 will not leave 3800mhz. I have set it to 4400mhz but it just won't go any higher. I haven't changed anything other than my ram and set the speeds accordingly through Ryzen Master.

Now those three threads just won't do anything passed that mark. Nevermind the profile name, it's not PBO. It's set all Manual.

Any ideas?

Has anyone ever got the post code “02” when trying to run more than two DIMMs?

I just got the new TeamGroup XTREEM ram kit, two kits of 2x8gb and every single time I put the third stick or more in, it goes straight to post code 02 and won’t post into the bios. I’ve tried every stick in every slot individually and it all works. Two sticks work, in any slots variation. But if there are two DIMMs installed into slots 1 and 2 (starring closest to CPU) as soon as I put in a third stick either in slot 3 or 4, it goes straight to post code 02.

Not only that, but my old TeamGroup kit of Dark Pros still work in slots 3 or 4 when trying to boot.

What gives? I’m on bios F11 now as well. The bios knows which kind of Memory it is as well. Any help would be appreciated.

 

[LiquidHaus]

I had trouble with getting 4 dimms working, had to trial and error a lot to make sure had the right timings to get it to post properly.

What timings are you trying to boot with? And voltages?

I appreciate the response! For this situation, I’ve set my settings to default. Reset the bios so it’s running at 2400mhz when the two sticks work. And I’ve swapped sticks around to make sure they all work at the stock settings which they do. The board just doesn’t want to do more than two with these DIMMs.

 

[LiquidHaus]

Can anyone guide me to correctly setting up RAID 1 with these boards? Raidxpert2 just will NOT install for me.
