I have an Msi B350 Pro VDH and a Ryzen 5 1600 my ram is 4x4Gb 2400 Cl 15 15 15 35 with XMP 2 profile everything is good at 1.2V
Now I want to bring the ram to 2800, have already tried 1 16 18 18 38 on 1.35 V and it runs, so two minutes then my game crashes (Fortnite)
I just don't know which timings and settings should I set in the BIOS 🤠maybe jmd can help me (if I have too low timings the pc hangs up and I have to restart it and increase the timings and which number should I use in the first bar So 1 or 2 (I think) I'll take mine there
1 15 15 15 35 and the 1 there and what timings are recommended have the latest bios
The first Ryzen generation is still very picky when it comes to RAM, and you obviously have 2400 RAM, which simply can't do the clock.
Either take 2666 MHz or relax timings. I wouldn't recommend more excitement
What timings would you recommend for 2400 is 1 15 15 15 35 if I go to 2666 because of any calculators I don't trust and what voltage and what is this A-XMP or something? Does this perform better? So is it worth it from 2400 (XMP) to 2666 without XMP?
XMP are profiles that are preprogrammed in RAM and that your mainboard can (theoretically) read and then take over the settings automatically. For me, it does not work so well, my 3200 MHz RAM actually does not want to run at 3200 MHz, with the Ryzen 5 1600, instead I manage 3000 MHz with the latest BIOS, which is a lot.
For Ryzen, faster RAM is (almost) always worthwhile, and the increase from 2400 to 2666 MHz would also be worthwhile.
Unfortunately, I'm not very familiar with timing… What exactly RAM do you have?
The G.Skill NT Series 2x4 (a year ago and again 2x4gb last week) clock is 2400 standard and CL 15 15 15 35 to 1.2V
Wait, is the mainboard now fully equipped with 4 bars? Then you will not achieve high clock rates anyway. Try 16 18 18 38 at 2666 MHz and 1.35 volts
Ok cool.
