I spent a few hours diagnosing what the problem could've been, but I ended up having to request a replacement set to be sent & I also had to visit a shop 15 minutes away because the normal local shop I drop off to wasn't available to return the first set of RAM but ended up sending them off. Any recommendations on how to better test the RAM? As errors never show up on Membench, but manifest in random occasional BSOD's.
CUSTOM PERFORMANCE PCB: Provides the highest signal quality for the greatest level of performance and stability. I'm sorry to revive an old thread but i'm investigating the issue and I have a theory that i could not confirm or discard as invalid. I have just tested for a couple of days but my impression is that when XMP is off and memory is at 2133Mhz it is stable but I would need further testing.GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 SSD: HP EX950 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME HDD: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Ryzen 7 3700X Gigabyte X570 UD (bios F20b now) 2x8gb ddr4 Patriot Viper [xmp 2.0] (2133/3200) 16 18 18 36 and 64 < for XMP 3200Mhz. Edit: for what's it worth: I reproduced this issue with every BIOS version I tried: F10a, F7b, F5g, F5l,and probably more. Edited November 11, 2019 by Djiezes It may be that the CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 (Optimized for Intel) is using the less expensive and worse hynix chips (they have problems with AM4 but works good with Intel) while MAXIMUM BANDWIDTH AND TIGHT RESPONSE TIMES: Optimized for peak performance on the latest Intel and AMD DDR4 motherboards.
When I have XMP disabled everything works normally, but in windows system events I have "LiveKernelEvent 141". [this error usually means a hardware error/damage] I wonder if any of you have it in connection with the instability of the XMP profile, and not only...
Running Memory Stress Test in Intel Extreme Tuning Utility BSOD if I run for more than 30 min even if XMP is disabled in bios. After this second RMA, I decided to further try out manual timings for the RAM kit. I had tried this earlier - and followed the ryzen dram calculator settings to the letter - but those also gave me errors. This time, I decided to just set the first five values in BIOS to the exact same as XMP would: 16-18-18-18-36. I noticed that my board would set the sixth value to 75, while XMP sets this to 54. So I tried dialing it down and ended up with 55 and 56 and everything ran fin without errors at 56.
Great Deal
