      I hate these stupid tests, lets test the RAM with CPU and GPU benchmarks :'( RAM tuning makes bigger differece with "lower end" CPUs, for the best experience (low latency) not equal with highest benchmark number, everybody should use 4 stick of dual ranked memory with the tightest timings. It's 16GB for DDR3 and 32GB for DDR4.
      First of all they should test 3 type of CPU from AMD, because of the different layout of the chips, 3300X, 3600, 3950X.
      Secondly, they sould test multi player games, I would say at least with 20 player on the map. (Only Steve from HW Unboxed do some multi player testing) Just launch Fortnite and you can see the difference in the lobby where 100 player present in a restricted area.

    9:40 I own both a 3950X system and a 3990X system. In Ryzen Master, you can set clocks by core, by CCX, by CCD, or all core, as well as turn entire CCDs off. The issue (in my admittedly somewhat limited testing) is that you cannot set the voltage per CCD-at least, not through Ryzen Master. So all that fancy undervolting we might be able to do (for example, my 3990X is stable with up to a .075V offset and the clocks otherwise left to auto, and I can run my 3950X at 1.10625 and still hit 4150MHz all-core) is wasted when we have to give the okay to 1.3V+ just so a single CCD can hit that higher clock. It would be really nice if Ryzen Master let us set per-core or per-CCD voltage, that way we could set our programs' affinities so we have a low heat, decent clock on most of the CPU, but then have our 4-8 cores set up to be a little higher clocked for gaming. More granularity is always better, if the user takes the time to understand what it is they might be tweaking of course!
    As far as the ideal RAM clock speed, Steve made a really detailed video a few weeks or months back (what even is time?) that explained how the uclock, mclock, and fclock like to be in ratios with each other, and pushing fclock past 1800 whacks out the uclock to be 2:1 instead of 1:1 (basically cuts its clock in half), which robs you of...I want to say 9ns. But of course depending on your kit, if you just push even harder on your mclock and tighten the timings even more, you can still overcome this drawback. For normal people who want to spend their time using their computer instead of tweaking it (both of which endeavors are valid and good fun), 3200C14 or 3600C16 are some pretty attainable sweet spots currently.

  • @ChrisHolzer
    @ChrisHolzer 4 роки тому +5

    A slight FPS boost is always nice, but the big difference I've seen/noticed when increasing RAM and FCLK was with **FRAME PACING** (frame times)
    Meaning, it elliminated most of the stutters and inconsitencies that I got when my 3800x ran with default RAM and InfFab speeds.
    The ration of MCLK to FCLK speed is/should actually always be 1:1 as DDR (double data rate) 3600Mhz means that it actually runs at 1800Mhz.
    The reason why I mention this is because of overclocking the FCLK.
    The maximum InfFab speed is 1867Mhz (DDR3733), past that it won't run 1:1 syncronous mode which will **hurt** performance.

  • @nightstorm10
    @nightstorm10 4 роки тому +4

    Just to clarify the bit about the FCLK (Infinity Fabric clock) at 8:26 and 12:04 - you do NOT want to run FCLK at half the speed of the memory, you want to run it at the same speed as the memory (1:1 ratio). Keep in mind the effective clock speed of DDR memory will always be double the memory clock speed shown in BIOS because it is double data rate. Just bringing this up so people won't go and set their FCLK at 1:2 by accident for 3600 speed or lower. So, like Jay says at 11:53, this is why the general consensus is that 3600 speed memory is the sweet spot for Ryzen. Most (if not all) Ryzen CPUs will do 1800 MHz FCLK for a 1:1 ratio with DDR4-3600 memory. As to 14:29 - you absolutely can run 4200 memory if you want on Ryzen without any additional effort (assuming XMP/DOCP for your memory kit works at that speed on your motherboard without additional tweaking) but you would probably be looking at setting FCLK to 1050 MHz in 1:2 ratio and lose some or all of the performance difference. And it costs a lot more, so probably not worth it.

  • @ppmguire
    @ppmguire 4 роки тому +9

    Best case scenario after fiddling with Ryzen for the first time was lock my cores to 4.3 and set faster RAM to 3600 with tighter timings and run 1:1 with IF. PBO was always inconsistent even under water for my 3700x. I find it comparable to my 7800x locked at 4.8GHz in gaming while also having 2 extra cores.

  • @richardbeckenbaugh1805
    @richardbeckenbaugh1805 Рік тому +1

    The f clock automatically sets itself at one half the memory speed at up to 3600 MHz on Ryzen 3000 processors. The f clock goes up to 2000 MHz on 5000 series processors so 4000 MHz is the sweet spot. You can overclock the f clock on Ryzen 3000 series to 2000 MHz and the 5000 series to 2200 MHz but that involves undervolting the cpu and overvolting the I/o die. Way too complicated for most people.

      I wouldn't say 3600 is a 'sweet spot' at all. It is for Ryzen 3000 if you don't manually OC your FCLK cuz it maxes out at 1800mhz by default.
      That said 3600 cl16 is a great kit of memory for out of the box XMP/DOCP. There's a lot of 3600 CL 18 kits out there which is technically slower than 3200 CL15

Fabric clock is exactly RAM freq when it's "half", probably also why it gives the best performance because they are in sync.

It was a significant performance boost and it's literally never crashed or locked up in about a year's time now. The question I have is how do I know that I'm not getting errors? Not every error causes a crash, but I am assuming it could cause it to have to recalculate something if fails a check or something.

    • @erickbaka
      @erickbaka 4 роки тому +4

      It's the exact opposite. Faster RAM raises your avg fps because it removes some throughput bottlenecking from the top % of your fps where your CPU load is minimal. For example looking mostly at a skybox in a game will see your fps dramatically increase as the CPU is allowed to run free, and with faster RAM you will get higher fps there. However, when then CPU itself is under a heavy load (as Jay showed with Cinebench) the effect of RAM speed becomes negligible as the bottleneck moves to compute instead of throughput. That is to say - if you only want a stable fps (e.g. you're capping it somehow for G-sync or Freesync), RAM speed has very little effect on your experience.

    Jay FCLK it's actually on a 1:1 ratio if you put it at "half" ram speed, base ram speed it's exactly the half of what you see (DDR = Double Data Rate), so that's actually 1:1, and that's why you have the best results with such settings.
    And no, CL timings DOES COUNT. At least in gaming. I have my ram at 3733 with a mix of cl14/15 with very tight subtimings, and difference with cl16 and relaxed sub timings is it there.
    The only downside of oc ram too much, it's you will get really higher temps on the cpu, because you just increase the cpu ipc by having way faster memories, but temps really spikes up.
    If I put my ram at 3200mhz cl14 (stock xmp/docp profile) I have something like 10 Celsius LESS on my cpu, and spikes (mainly in idle) are way less prominent.
    I tried also with 3733mhz but cl16 timings, and temps were always lower than with very tight timings.
    My 2 cents? If you have a good cpu cooler, leave zen 2 do what he does (boost, or turn on pbo with some UV, but be careful, or you will get core stretching), and play a LOT with rams, it's where you will get the major boost, especially in gaming.

      You can just buy 3200 mhz CL 16 DRAM and overclock it to 3600 with minimal effort like mentioned.

      I don't know about you but ordering multiples of twin packet sticks (ie x2 packs of two sticks/pkt for 16GB DDR4 @3600MHz) saves a coupla hundred, compared to 4-pack 'matched' ram. Its much like Crossfire and SLI to me. The bet I make is to stack twin stick packs in the A1 B1 +A2 B2 dimm slot order so the electronic abstraction sees each matched ram pair in their own channel (if I have that right).
      **Can't wait to finish my build: now 64GB of 3600MHz ddr4 richer, just arrived. G.Skill Ripjaws V Black, in a Black Corsair Crystal 280X mATX case with its glass top pane sitting on stacked nylon washers and the grommets upside down for extra standoff height, main glass side panel grommets reversed to set panel flush against case, front panel dust filter removed. I have an MSI Radeon RX 5700XT Mech otw (this model is only 232mm long). Almost everything going on inside my case is black, except the brushed aluminium heatsinks of the Asrock X570M Pro4 mobo, and its white printed stuff, and the Ryzen 9 IHS. Not a fan of pretty lights. I might custom build a puppet theatre stage curtain-esque drape to the glass side panel .. I'll think it over.

    I love how, after so many years of being succesfull, you still take the time to explain stuff most of your viewers know. (Like how DDR4 out of the box runs, free benchmarking programs, difference between Intel CPU's) I know you know the majority of your viewers know, but some don't (me :-) )

    R5 3600X here with DDR4 running at 3733Mhz and Fabric Clock set to 1866Mhz (OC).
    Most Zen 2 chips will be able to overclock the Fabric Clock to this and if you plan to upgrade to upcoming Zen 3 (aka Ryzen 4000) it makes sense to invest in higher frequency RAM.
    Also don't forget to tweak your subtimings too using Ryzen DRAM Calculator as it makes a noticeable difference.

    I have 32oomhz memory but I bought the ASUS Prime X370 when I got my Ryzen 7 all those years ago only for the board to claim it runs 3200mhz but becomes unstable over 2600mhz. I will NEVER buy any asus product again. Nor will I buy nvidia for lying when i bought my gtx970. PC companies are the worst.

    Why does no one increase the priority to high on the Cinebench 20 process while running a benchmark?
    Constant and pretty much max scores every time.
    Backgrund tasks don´t bother me anymore!
    Do I miss something here?

    The JEDEC DDR4 SPD specification allows speeds other than 2133 (both slower and faster); so non-overclock 2400, 2666, etc is quite possible. The standard includes examples up to 3200. It's just a combination of manufacturing and marketing that has made most DDR4 modules ship with SPD configured as 2133 (and XMP for the real rated speed after binning).

    Isn't there a ram divider that kicks in after certain ram speeds that essentially reset memory performance? You need to test 3200, ~3400, 3600, ~3700, ram speeds as well, and check when the dividers kick in. There are certain ram speeds that will peak performance at a particular divider, but then drop after a new divider kicks in (ie. 3600 is peak of one divider, but a new divider kicks in at 3700 and performance drops down a bit).

    I was disappointed that this video didn't address the concerns of timings. There is a substantial lack of information on this but the few channels and sites that test it seem to show significant difference in performance in a variety of CPUs. I am currently in the market to buy a system and honestly do not know how much of an impact 5000mhz CL19 vs 3800 CL14 RAM has an impact on a 3800-3950X and would love to see data that helps me guide which direction to spend my money. Please consider doing a timings video to help some of us with these kinds of questions
