R7 1700X currently clocked at 3.7GHz. It's currently more than enough and I didn't push it. Barely goes above 40c even in full use.

R7 1700 CPU @ 4.0 GHz.

However the memory support is lacking (or my kit which was pre-ryzen was not fully compatible:) and I'm stuck at 2666 on that speed. I also messed up the overclock a few days ago so it's now at defaults.

built 2 Ryzen systems recently. both with R5-1600

one had an Asus TUF B350M the other a Gigabyte AB350-GAMING 3

Tuf just had 8gb ram, 16gb in the other. both corsair 3000mhz sets.

the 16gb in the gigabyte works fully at 2966mhz with no problems.

the Asus has a peculiarity. it boots at 2600 and 2800mhz.
2800mhz it turned on beeped a bit for memory errors then restarted fine, still at 2800.
the 2600mhz booted fine, even shutdown fine. but if you did a restart, then you got memory errors beeps and the bios reset to 2133mhz defaults.

the memory is on the QVL list as working at 2966mhz, but as mentioned in the ‘ryzen megathread’ corsair has different designs for the same product , like dual side, single side and different memory chips. but as it was pretty much the same price for 8gb for every speed, I just got the fastest so not that bothered that its just currently set at 2400mhz.


not tried overclocking on any of them. as they're both upgrades to systems from 2008 and 2011, then theres plenty of very noticeable speed improvement already, so not seen the need to.

R5 1600X @ 3.9GHz 1.25V

Any higher and the PC doesn't boot. I'm pretty certain it's the limitation of the motherboard, especially as it's a mini-ITX.

1700 does 3.9. Won't do 4.0 at all. RAM is at 3200 (OCUK's 8-pack stuff).

Managed to get my 1700x completely stable wiht 3.95 Ghz, @ 1.34V
And with my celsius s36 it's ca 45C during full load (prime95)

3.8GHz at a notch above stock voltage seemed stable when I was doing a lot of transcoding on my 1800X earlier in the year.

After that though the load has been mixed single threaded and multithreaded, and since matching the 4.1GHz single core boost (which is disabled at anything other than stock) would either mean per-core overclocking or a pretty brutal all-core overclock I likely won't touch it again until 3 or so years down the line when the performance starts falling short.

Memory is 2x8GB @ 3200MT/s though.

1600@3.9, run it at 3.7 to keep it cool enough for the stock cooler.
RAM, however, only gets up to 2800 on a 3200 kit at 1.4v. Bios says default soc voltage is .85v (even though i keep reading this was changed to 1.1) so i bump it up to 1.1v and the ram boots at 2966. Reboot later and bios now says soc default voltage is 1.1 and is running at 1.35v. Remove the offset and it no longer boots and reports 0.85 again. How do I stop this?

Zero… because I don't have Ryzen. :P

To be fair, I haven't got my FX-8350 overclocked either though as I'm happy with my system as it is (especially as it hasn't been long since I added 8GB of RAM to give me 16GB total) and don't intend to move to a newer platform any time soon unless I win it.

Another reason to support that decision is the Windows 7 update block applied to Ryzen, whereas I'm sticking with Win7 for as long as I can and then switching to Linux when Win7 support ends as I've still not seen anything to convince me to change my mind about using Win10.

I would say the Motherboard but not for its form factor, I have the 990FX Asrock Fatality with an 8350 and Noctua cooler, it does not overclock very well. I won't be using Asrock in my next build (a few OC sites/forums have had issues with the Asrock fatality boards).

If that is the CL14 B die stuff you have awesome RAM.

R7 1700 @ 4.0GHz 1.40-1.45v (dynamic VCORE on my matx I'm afraid).

Mobo: Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3 (F10 bios - the bios prior to this, F7a, I was unable to have 4GHz stable).

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 running at 3200MHz (though currently at 1.48v to run rock solid stable; running at stanard 1.35v doesn't play nice).

R5 1400 at 3.7ghz at stock voltage on a Gigabyte AB350 Gaming 3; it can go up to 3.9ghz with extra voltage but it's a case of diminishing returns.

My Crucial Ballistix 16gb kit seems happy running at 3066mhz with 1.35v.

I haven't got a Ryzen system but a friend has, been very tempted to buy one but I think that I'll be waiting out for the second version and get myself something then.. They are looking amazing systems and I hope that Intel have a shock from the second version (die shrink)…

1700x @3.9 and RAM at 3200
I suspect that 4.0 is within reach

I'd say iv'e had a blast with my Rig and found it more than capable at even the most single threaded apps. Gaming is also a breeze on this system.

Memory performance has improved a lot, sadly with 32GB i'm still struggling to get that 3200MHz, but with a bit more tinkering you may be able to get it stable.

ryzen 1700 at 38.00 well happy with that overclock

my cpu crashes at 38.75

My 1800X was happy at 4.1Ghz earlier in the year, but when a BIOS update reset everything - I just didn't bother doing it again. It's fast enough as is, good to know I can in the future though.

1700x 3.8ghz 2x16gb gskill 3200mhz running at 2800mhz
cant get over 3.8 , system crashes under load -tried higher voltages.
Im so unlucky with cpu's only bad copys for me..
