For any new AMD chips (Ryzen) I sincerely hope that the grave issues with many motherboards are addressed. Many a computer builder (individuals, companies, even big companies such as Dell) have had major issues with the current entire lot of Ryzen chips and a number of motherboards.
It would appear as through AMD did not give hardware manufacturers enough lead time. |

I think the motherboard issues aren't nearly as bad as near the launch.
----------------------------------------Most problems are related to overclocking. If you run your chips stock, you most likely won't encounter any issues. I have a b350 tomahawk with an early bios. Memory overclocking was unstable for me, but running everything on stock it's a stable 24/7 cruncher. I bet that with a newer BIOS the memory OC issues would be solved as well. ![]() [Edit 1 times, last edit by fuzzydice555 at Apr 14, 2017 4:50:09 PM] |

@fuzzy
----------------------------------------I updated the 1.3 bios on their website and it seems very stable. Boot time is very fast now, no more beeps during POST. My Dram is rated at 2400mhz CL14, I was able to OC it to 2933mhz CL14 1.35v with no issues. I didn't push it to 3200 though because I want to put the machine back to crunch asap. Now it's back on WCG again at 3.6ghz, Dram = 2667mhz 1.2v. I just replaced the stock cooler with an AIO just to be safe. My CPU max temp under load is now 52C .. VRM still runs a little warm 69C. Total power draws went up to 175w. |
