Random restarts on ryzen 1600 cpu

hawkgoalie · May 19, 2017

So I am having some issues with what I am assuming is my RAM in my new system build. To start with here are my system specs:
CPU: ryzen 5 1600 OCed to 3.9GHz
MOBO: ASUS prime b350-plus
RAM: Corsair vengeance LPX 3000MHz
GPU: MSI 1060 6gb gaming.

Here is my issue, I have never been able to get the system to boot with the ram speed set above 2666MHz, if I try to bump the RAM speed up to 2933 the system will power cycle a few times and then say that the overclock failed. Even with the Ram speed set to 2666 I still get random restarts on occasion, and EVERY time I try to run a flash game, ex. baloon tower defense battles, the system will restart. When this happens the display just goes black and then goes back to the sign in page.

I know a lot of people have had success with getting this specific ram to run at high speeds but I have found no success. I have made sure I have the latest version of the Bios, and that made no difference. At this point I am out of ideas, any help would be great!!

Thanks in advance!

I've had the same problems with the Corsair LPX 3000mhz RAM as well. 2667mhz gets random freezes (even with latest BIOS) on both Gigabyte and ASUS B350 boards. 2400mhz is far more stable. Depressing to say, but the B350 boards aren't getting the love and attention that the high end X370 boards with regards to BIOS tuning.

AMD is supposed to release an update for that soon. Drop to 2400 until that happens

Now should I keep the DOCP setting set to 3000MHz, and then just manually drop the speed down to 2400? Or should I just set the profile to auto and adjust speed/voltage/timings myself? Or is there no difference?

I'd see how tight I could get the timings at 2400. Might as well do what you can to take advantage of good ram

I set DOCP to 3000mhz, then manually drop speed to 2400 as you mentioned. It's a stop-gap until the next microcode update. Gosh I wish I could hit 3000mhz on my... 3000mhz ram. Grr... early adopter problems, I know... lol.
