HELP!! Cant get RAM to 3200Mhz Ryzen

mushroomhead9808 · Feb 1, 2018

Hi i need help getting my RAM to 3200Mhz that is the default speed that is supposed to be and i just cant get it

i have the G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) F4-3200C16D-16GTZR
and i am using the mobo ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming K4 Bios version 4.60
plz help :c send picture of the profile im using i can only get it up to 3066Mhz :C

ive tried

CAS Latency: 16
RAS to CAS - Read 18
RAS to CAS . Write: 18
Precharge: 18
Active time: 38
Cycle time: 56

and

CAS Latency: 16
RAS to CAS - Read 16
RAS to CAS . Write: 18
Precharge: 18
Active time: 38
Cycle time: 56

both at 1.35v ive tried to increase to 1.36 but it would just go back to 1.35

Ived experienced crashes on games like: PUBG, Rise of the tomb raider, GTA V, Overwatch, also in games like Path of Exile

got a few bluescreens when runnin tombraider benchmarks and pubg

AIDA 64 Stress test on Memory only stops After 1:30 minutes

plz help :c

PS: sorry if bad english

You have cas 16 modules which are not Trident Z modules using Samsung B dies, nor are they Flare X modules. They use Hynix A dies, which are reported to "mostly" be cable of 3200mhz, but there are a good many modules using those Hynix A dies that are unable to get past 2933mhz.

Getting to 3066mhz might be the best those modules will do. Certainly though, errors and crashes tends to indicate an issue. I'd try upping the memory voltage and if it is not "sticking" like you say, then I'd make sure you are hitting "enter" after typing in the desired voltage. If you are still having issues with achieving 1.36v there may be a setting blocking you. I haven't done much on Ryzen yet so I can't say for sure, but typically being unable to change voltages and make it stick is due to not actually hitting enter after entering the desired value or entering a value that the motherboard does not support. You might try 1.37 or other incremental amounts. Probably also a good idea to make sure there is not a setting blocking you from changing the memory voltage.

Since/if your other settings are sticking, if they are, I suspect it may be that the value is not supported. My Z170 Gaming 5 for example will NOT allow me to enter 1.35v for memory. It must either be 1.34 or 1.36, unless specifically using only the XMP profile and we already know that the XMP profiles tend to not work well on Ryzen which is why so many people have opted to use the Flare X modules which have profiles intended specifically for use with Ryzen.

what do you mean with cable 3200mhz my ram is not actually 3200mhz? could i find a mobo that could support this RAM or should i buy new ones? if so what ram or what mobo is good? and thank you guess i did a bad buy with these rams :c

There is NO memory that is 100% guaranteed to reach beyond 2933mhz on any Ryzen motherboard. Those that are MOST likely to do so have Samsung B-die memory chips on them though.

SOME people have been able to get less capable modules like those using Hynix A-die memory chips to work beyond 2933mhz but the chances are not AS good as with a module using Samsung B-die chips.

That being said, you will not honestly see much difference between the speed you have them at now and 3200mhz. If you can get your current modules stable, without errors, it might make more sense to just be happy with that speed. It's already well beyond what a lot users have been able to achieve. If however you really feel the need to gain that little bit of extra speed, then I'd suggest you take a look at the modules listed on the following thread, and purchase a kit that lists it as using the Samsung B-die.

Or, see these would likely be a good choice too. Still, there are never any guarantees, and it's still not likely to be simply plug and play. You will likely still need to do some custom configuration in the bios but since the XMP profile on these modules is made SPECIFICALLY for Ryzen, you may not have to. You may only need to set the XMP profile in the bios and then allow the system to restart itself several times, which is normal for Ryzen DRAM training.
