Hi there,
I have purchased a zion blaze 3600mhz rgb ram. I want to get the most out of it if possible to achieve 3600.plz help me out n guide me how to oc it to get the best results .I don't know it's latency n timings. Below are is my rig:
1)Ryzen 7 2700x
2)Asus prime x470 pro Mobo
3)Zion blaze 3600mhz rgb ram
4)Nvidia geforce gtx 1050 ti
5)Circle 550w PSU 80+bronze certified
6)Circle Phoenix Mid tower Cabinet.
I'm running it on 4ghz oc right now but planning to oc it to 4.2ghz.

You need to enable the D.O.C.P. profile on your motherboard for the RAM to run at its rated 3600 MHz frequency.
Go in your BIOS and do the following:

Go to the Advanced Mode->AI Tweaker->Set AI Overclock Tuner from auto to D.O.C.P. -> Save changes and reset.

You RAM should run at 3600 MHz now.

Thanks ChumP,
Will definitely try. Hope this will solve the problem but one more thing I wanted to add here is,
I have tried earlier enabling DOCP gives me an idle temp of 42-43c with cooler master ml120l liquid cooler. I have heard ryzen 2nd Gen have a 10% offset in their Temps. Just wanted to confirm that with DOCP on my idle Temps are okay or something more needs to be done.
Regards.

 
Temps are fine... that's also not the best cooler.
Your CPU temps are higher because the memory controller is inside your CPU and it has to work harder when your memory is at a higher frequency, hence the higher CPU temps.
That should be it.

That will probably not work. Be ready for OC failed.

Hearty thanks to you ChumP and your valuable comments DOCP worked for me but the max I am able to use is 3466mhz on 1.38v settings.Can you Plz suggest me if I go with higher volts like 1.4 or more to get 3600mhz for my ram will it be safe for my system or should I just stick with 3466mhz with 1.38v. Waiting for your valuable reply brother :)

I tried with 1.4v to achieve 3600mhz but failed. Even i kept pushing it further to 1.5v still failed. My mobo is showing Dram voltage (min-1.05v Max-1.8v standard 1.2v). Just want to know from you what is the highest Dram voltage that I can set to achieve 3600mhz.Rest all voltages are set to auto with DOCP on. Or should I play with VDDCR CPU VOLTAGE, SOC VOLTAGE & the rest of the voltages. Waiting for your valuable response. Thanks..

 


Now I realised you've OCed your CPU already.
Keep your RAM at 1.4V.... 1.5V is too much!
You won't notice any major performance increase going with 3600 so you should stick with 3466, especially when you're running a 1050ti and the bottleneck will be the card usually.
