I haven't seen but one or two mentions, anywhere, of running RAM at CL15 since the Ryzen 3000's were released, so I thought it might be worthwhile to make a thread where we can record our succeses and failures with various dimms and chipsets. My hardware info can be seen in the two links below.
After running for a couple of days with latest BIOS and drivers (as of 8/5/19), I decided to play with RAM timings again at 3600 MHz. I've been running my 2x8gb G.Skill 2933 Flare-X CL14 at 3600 MHz, 16-17-16-36-1T with 1.35v, which has been ultra-stable. Today I tried 15-15-15-30-1T (other timings are fast) with 1.42v, and ran prime95 blend for a while without issue. I'll try reducing voltage to 1.40v tomorrow, and let that run for a couple of days before reducing it more. The only benchmark I have to compare to CL16, as of right now, is geekbench 4:
3600 MHz CL16
3600 MHz CL15
