    AMD RYZEN Builders Thread

    Taichi had a (minor) BIOS update yesterday by the way:

    Crashplan ends home subscriptions!

    I find this super annoying but a I guess it's a reality of our dependence on companies that provide cloud services. I'm lucky though in that I started a year subscription only a month ago, so with the bonus months and a year of small business at a discount it'll be over two years before I need...

    No, just testing different settings and 2T supposedly being more stable.

    AMD RYZEN Builders Thread

    Quickly checked a few things. First while cold booting has been fine, I have had some failures on reboot. Since I'm pretty busy coming up and soon to be out of town, I'm probably going to set it to 3066 for stability and revisit it in a couple of weeks. AIDA64 memory stress test ran for 40...

    AMD RYZEN Builders Thread

    Got my 3200 hynix ram (CMK16GX4M2B3200C16) to boot full speed on the Taichi with the newest BIOS. I saw a screenshot that someone else posted that it booted and was reporting a tRC of 75, so I loaded the XMP profile, changed tRC to 75 and it's up and running. No obvious issues yet although I...

    I'm totally stopping sodas - Anyone else here massively addicted?

    This gets outside my wheelhouse but I believe the concept is the same and it's just a matter of degree. On a ketogenic diet, for example, protein is kept to a very moderate level and the body doesn't convert anything to glucose except as needed for the most basic things. At an Atkins level...

    I'm totally stopping sodas - Anyone else here massively addicted?

    The body has a mechanism -- gluconeogenesis -- for creating the small amount of glucose needed even when carbs aren't present.

    I was doing fixed and hadn't messed with LLC yet. I'll start messing with that soon as I get a chance. Thanks!

    AMD RYZEN Builders Thread

    Just started overclocking a 1700 on the Taichi. Two quick questions: 1) I'm getting some crashes with AIDA64's FPU stress test in an otherwise stable system. Some of what I read online is that it's an unrealistic test and should be disregarded. Thoughts? What's a good "final" determination...

    AB350 Pro4 1.0.0.6 Guinea pigs out there?

    Quick mention that the Taichi and Fatality x370 boards also have the update available. Maybe (probably) others, too. In reading a bit it was mixed reviews. Mostly good, but no silver bullet. Saw one person say they planned to revert, but honestly only being out half a day it's probably too...

    And nice, the Taichi has the offical release of 2.40 as well. 1.0.0.6 AGESA http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370%20Taichi/#BIOS

    Command Prompt Flashes Instantaneously and Disappears

    I believe I've read that's an issue with office 2016. Might want to check for more info in that direction.

    AMD RYZEN Builders Thread

    I've been unable to keep up with this thread for the past 3 weeks, hoping to get a quick opinion before I purchase a motherboard. I had thought I'd go with a Gigabyte or ASUS motherboard, but I'm pretty underwhelmed with their reviews and performance so far. I'll be trying for a decent (but...

    AMD RYZEN Builders Thread

    There's no chance I could find it now, but I'm nearly positive I saw an official range from AMD about a week ago. I know that doesn't help you but I think the answer is out there. Force me to guess and I think it was 1.35 for long term use.

    Speculation on Ryzen Overclocking

    I spent about 45 minutes yesterday comparing the Gaming K7 vs the Gaming 5 on Gigabyte's website, and it's worth noting that the only thing I could find that was at all different was the K7's inclusion of Turbo B-Clock. I don't know what that will ultimately mean for their respective ability to...
