I did not spend a lot of money on my ram, I have three different kits from different brands, 4GB each module.
Two of the kits are rated for 3200 and 1.35 volts.
Two of them have XMP profiles, the other doesn’t.
My bios will detect the XMP profile and attempt to use it, but the system won’t go to post with the XMP profile enabled unless I seriously loosen up the timings, but then Windows blue screens all over.
I’ve gotten Windows 10 to actually get past the screen with 2933,but the system wouldn’t do much at that speed without crashing.
Oh well, my new MSI X470 system board shipped out this morning.
I should be able to install it later this week, but I’m dreading doing a fresh install of Windows 10.

How did you have this issue? My GAX370 Gaming 5 had no issues running my memory at 3200mhz with a 1700 running at 4.0. I know ASRock isn’t fabulous, but the killer x370 should be a pretty good board. Is your airflow good? Did you cheap out on your RAM modules?

This is a pretty old comments thread to be talking about but sometimes I just pick odd places to vent myself.
Often times people talking about u bugs are overblown, from my understanding a good Antivirus software will keep your system safe from software trying to exploit a known u bug.
For me being able to overclock and bench mark is more fun than actually playing a video game.
And Fallout 4 is lots of fun.

Also, look at the mofo posting date. That’s February, when Intel’s gigantic security architecture flaws leak was a new. Now, 4 months later, why you arguing for when it is totally meaningless at this point? Just why? Because you wanted to show your great and powerful argumentation skills?
You know, the reason I said was that I was afraid that those 2 factors will press down Intel. And also I wanted to say why make a reference to something is irrelevant? Fallout? Maxcore? Why the fuck do you make that refs?

From my experience everybody in the electronics industry has a reputation for bringing products to the market from their various sources and have a history for what degree they honor warranty with those products once the consumer gets them.
I’ve had plenty of really good AMD processors as of late so I’m sticking with them on that.
I’ve owned several Asrock motherboards that have performed quite well and lasted for as long as most people will keep a computer chugging along until “omgs new generation of products, time to upgrade!”
I still have a MSI xpower big bang Intel X58 that simply refuses to stop working while other systems that I’ve built never lasted a year.
My Asrock X370 Killer SLI system board appears to be working fine, I wouldn’t call it broken…
I can set the bios to use higher DDR4 speeds, I can either set manual timings, which I found a few to get 2800 to run stable, but don’t seem to work anymore, or I can just set Everything to “Auto” and boot to windows.
Once I start booting Windows 10 all hell let’s loose and I’ve lost track of how many different blue screens I can get.
I swear, I didn’t know that Windows now features so many frecking unique and different blue screens just to say “u timing issues” or “hardware problems”…
I’m not going to send my Asrock motherboard in for replacement or throw it away, I can still honestly build a family member or a friend a really nice desktop computer with it and just manually set the ram speed and it’s a good computer.
Now if it turns out that my AMD 1700X has a faulty or worn out memory controller because I may have gone a bit crazy with the memory voltage trying to get it to run past DDR4 2800…
That would be interesting to see.
Seems like you are hardcore gamer. If your overclocking is fucked up and cannot run beyond 2800MHz, just get with your damn reality and use it. Just highering up volts doesn’t give any advantages at all, just eating the damn life of RAM.
If your hardware doesn’t or handle beyond what it says, don’t do it. Just touch the settings in the appropriate limit.

When people were talking about those u bugs I kinda wondered what would happen if somehow every single u across the planet that could be hurt by that bug were to suddenly all at once get hit by it.
If every single computer could suddenly be fried and die, could we start living in a Fallout or Max type world?
I agree that ryzen > intel but poni is abused makes me sad

There is a thing called ‘reputation’.

U Gate fucks up Intel.
Everything fucked up.
Is that some ol’ gigabyte ad? Those ultra durable’s still a thing these days……
Wat
Its not fair. Ryzen way better.
@Background Pony #F0F8
OH GOD NO, WHY
lemme heal her
but yeah, anyone who wants a new i5 should just buy ryzen instead
Yes, by having Kaby in ICU and Ryzen going after nVidia next with Radeon along side.
but pls
take care of all pones after they are done with their uncivil disagreements
