Hey guys, In preparation for Computex, I've done some work on building a timeline for the Memory Frequency World Record. Below is a dump of the current list. Anything I missed?

Got this in yesterday morning

Small update on the BC1 mini: we'll demo the latest iteration at Computex

Alright, I can confirm we'll have some toys to play with on May 29th. No need to bring your CPUs on that day

From the looks of it, we'll be able to confirm the activities on May 29. Without spilling the beans, that day you'll most likely have to sign NDAs ... (hint). Hoping to formalize everything this week!

In Belgium for about 4 days, digging up some treasures again

Updated OC activities for World Tour here: http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=167183 Difficult to say what's coming for Computex exactly ... But it should be very interesting

There's no fee for competing at G.SKILL when you're qualified

We're working on a schedule for the media so we can pair people with media with the same language

Hey guys, this is the preliminary schedule for Computex: May 26th - 28th: Overclocker's Gathering at TWTC May 29th: to be confirmed May 30th - June 1st: G.SKILL OC World Cup 2017 Live Qualifier May 30th - June 2nd: Extreme overclocking workshop June 2nd: G.SKILL OC World Cup 2017 Final May 30th - June 3rd: G.SKILL OC World Record Stage We are working on getting enough monitors, power supplies, keyboards and mice at the gathering so luggage space can be saved for other things. During the gathering we'll have some Broadwell-E and Kaby Lake CPUs for you to play with. We'll be inviting other hardware partners to support the event as well, but this is yet to be confirmed. On May 29 I'm trying to arrange something special overclocking related, but still need final confirmation on whether it's possible. The Extreme Overclocking Workshop at G.SKILL is targeted at the international media attending Computex. We have a 20min session to show the media how extreme overclocking works and how to get to 7GHz or DDR4-5000. Anyone who would like to volunteer a couple of hours to interface with the media, drop a message below. We'd love to connect the overclockers with the media Tickets will be available soon too //edit: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hwbot-world-tour-taipei-2017-tickets-33693513205 If everything goes as planned, this will be an epic Computex :D

No, you were banned for photoshopping on three different occasions. One time in fact using a photoshopped result as a reference to sell memory on a different forum.

Yes

Ooh, it's been a while Zannema!

Looking good! But you really need get a board with clockgen haha

Done Nickname already in use

Anodized

Just a quick test for an upcoming video

Hands down the best technical article on Ryzen I've read so far. Check it out here: https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/ryzen-strictly-technical.2500572/ Some quotes: - "Zeppelin features a highly advanced power management, as stated many times before. Just like Carrizo / Bristol Ridge, which feature a very similar PM, Zeppelin can infact support cTDP as well. cTDP is not officially supported (or available) on any consumer Zeppelin based SKU (AFAIK). The lack of official support is merely a distraction. 850 points in Cinebench 15 at 30W is quite telling. Or not telling, but absolutely massive. Zeppelin can reach absolutely monstrous and unseen levels of efficiency, as long as it operates within its ideal frequency range." - "Overclocking Ryzen, at least the higher-end models is kind of a double-edged sword. Due to how the Turbo / XFR operates in Zeppelin and the rather slim overclocking margins, the user might end up actually losing single core performance when the CPU is overclocked. Since the Turbo / XFR will always be disabled when the CPU is overclocked (upon entering the “OC-Modeâ€), the single core performance might actually be lower than at stock, if the user is unable to reach the same speed on all cores as the CPU operated at single core stress at default (e.g. 4.1GHz on 1800X SKU)." - "As indicated by the Vmin-Fmax curve, Zeppelin's voltage scaling is perfectly linear until 3.3GHz (25mV per 100MHz). The first deviation ("Critical 1") from this linear behavior can be seen at 3.3GHz. The second and the final deviation ("Critical 2") can be seen at 3.5GHz. Beyond this point the voltage scaling is neither linear or recovers even temporarily, and the CPU is requiring higher voltage in increasingly larger steps to scale further. The ideal frequency range for the process or the design (as a whole) appears to be 2.1 - 3.3GHz (25mV per 100MHz). Above this region (>= 3.3GHz) the voltage scaling gradually deteriorates to 40 - 100mV+ per 100MHz."

Was told this issue will be fixed in a new AGESA code. In other words: it was an AMD issue, not C6H issue. Thanks for finding this bug @Mysticial!
