April 28, 20178 yr You guys look like your having all the fun Nice results ..... yep, pushing all 5 timings HARD lol.
May 2, 20178 yr 7:41 seems very good, I think for 4600 MHz! Whats your RAM? FlareX? No. I won't bench hardware that i am supposed to review until it has been reviewed. Just a set of trident z. Ryzen effeciency is an odd thing. The above run is slow for 4.6 imo...but fast considering the temp range i am in. Probably best to gauge like this. DI/cascade hardest Phase hard Ln2 easier Air/water easiest Seperate cooling categories then compare by speed. Basically people on ln2 should not be losing to people on phase or cascade...it's very possible for a good chip to beat phase at much lower clocks on air/water. Edited May 2, 20178 yr by chew*
May 3, 20178 yr Ok after extensive testing i have come to the conclusion that. 1. I am not crazy yet in the sense that i have not completely lost my mind. 2. The above run was actually very fast for R5 1400. 3. R5 1400 is much slower due to less cache and thus needs way more memory power to match R7. Will show an example in a few.

May 4, 20178 yr If you notice I pulled 3 secs off time with considerably less memory speed without software tweaking Above is boot run barely stable just happy it completed...cores were not really happy with 4.6. This is r5 less cache tuned to the max run and better timings... Edited May 4, 20178 yr by chew*
May 9, 20178 yr If I have a B350 board with no external clockgen it's legal on win10 right? cuz I got this when doing some testing: and can't really be bothered setting up win7 right now.
May 9, 20178 yr Nah they are blocking all windows 10. Nice work with the b350. I have more fun with that then some of the top tier boards...does what i tell it to do.
May 10, 20178 yr Im interesting for future, after the backup to Win7 will be impossible or very, very problematic (as now WinXP at Ryzen). Next generation of CPU will be supporting only win10 at both side or next Windows (blue and green side)
May 11, 20178 yr It's board\chipset driver limitation. So long as CPU is backwards compatible on board after bios update then no reason you should lose the ability to use the older os.
May 15, 20178 yr Take the timing allowance with a grain of salt. K7 needs some bios work if plan on using ref clock plus cold. Those of you willing to work through its fixxable issues try "auto" for multi when using ref clock. Use Ryzen master in windows to bring cpu clock multiplier up to a more desireable level.

May 15, 20178 yr Maybe things will get interesting now...... Hi Mr. Chew* Do you mind if I used your screenshot as news item? I'll properly credit your name as source . And also, is the BIOS already available in public? or still in internal testing domain? Cheers,
May 15, 20178 yr You guys can use any of my material freely. I am just here to show people what is possible nowadays. Bios is available to public. Let me link it... AX370GamingK7.F4a.zip - Google Drive Edited May 15, 20178 yr by chew*
May 15, 20178 yr Ok so I said 7:3x was possible @ 4.6. Kind of sorry that I have to disappoint you but....I just decided to skip 7:3x.... Maybe this will be enough of a poke to get people to actually start running 32m and stop playing footsies with it. Checkmate Charles Moving on to my next victims...
