After 3 memory_management Bsod's I went to my local store and returned 2 kingston 8gb ram hyperx modules. I got 2 crucial ballistx in return.
But problems didnt go away. another Bsod yesterday.
Im going to rma the motherboard.
Does anyone know for CERTAIN which motherboard is really compatible with ryzen and RAM memories at 2666 mhz?
I need a solid choice because I work in the rendering industry and can't afford to lose hours of work because of a bsod. I need stability.

ASUS maybe?

Please need some help here
 
Which exact chip do you have? The old board was made to work with Ryzen and supports up to 3200 MHz RAM.

Have you considered an issue with the installation of Windows? It would be unfortunate to lose time and money changing parts if a software issue is at fault.

OK, I just looked through the older thread.

Have you moved the memory sticks around to different slots to try to identify a possible bad slot?

Also I noticed one slight oddity in a picture posted in the old thread, that all the errors occurred on the same CPU core. CPU failures are relatively uncommon though and the system passed stress tests according to the original post and there isn't an AMD made diagnostic tool.

Not really, but the bsods seems sporadic, it could take weeks before I knew if its the socket.



isnt that normal?


PD: I was using Excel the last time I had the bsod.
EXCEL nothing more, no rendering, no video streaming, no games, nothing.
 
Well the Ryzen chip has 8 physical cores, plus hyperthreading (an engineering trick which enables each physical core to run two tasks at once) as a result of which the Memtest reports as 16 cores. If the issue were bad memory an issue could occur with any core in use, randomly. Of course it might just be because that particular screenshot only showing a small number of the 100 total errors while errors further down the list occurred with different cores, or that only the one core was used in the test.

As to the last part, memory errors can occur at any time. Stressing the system makes any error more likely but there's no time an error can't happen.

Well, to recommend a new board it would help to know the budget
 
I see from your previous post you tried HX424C15FB2/8. In this thread, you never actually identify the memory you bought, 2x crucial ballistx 8gb.

Memory is guaranteed in the form sold. There are NO guarantees that using modules purchased as SINGLES will be compatible when combined. This applies to HX424C15FB2/8.

Memory model is
2x CRUCIAL BALLISTX 8gbs 2666 mhz
BLS8G4D26BFSEK.8FB Single Ranks

I had to resuscitate this post since I've got another BSOD this time with IRQL non equal.

The thing is that after June I brought the PC to the local store, so they updated the bios to F23d. After that, I had 3 months BSOD free, rendering, playing, normal use.

This time I was starting a render in 3dsmax, the Ram usage peaked 100%, Started to lock up, then finally froze. I was going to reboot when windows did by itself with the dreaded blue screen.

No changes to hardware since Bios Update.
