You are a wealth of information, knowledge and experience Tom. Thanks for sharing it 🙂

Thank you Tiny Tom Logan, you are a hero for the ages!

Thanks for this, I got my 3600 17-21-21-39 RAM running at 3800 18-21-21-39 and FCLK at 1900MHz 1:1 with UCLK at 1.4V and Memory Controller SOC voltage at +50mv

You seem like a nice dude my guy!. I just bought a couple of 4600mhz sticks to go with a b550 gaming pro plus and I should of checked the compatibity but I just broke up with my lady and went on a bit of a rampage while drunk last night. So I have the sticks and now getting into ram overclocking...New area for me. I've done GPU and CPU overclocking before. Your tutorial is helping me understand it all before executing my overclock. Wish me luck my guy! :).

This is great! Future idea, vid on memory timing optimization. That confuses me to no end tiny sir.

Great video!!!

Thank you mate. The benchmarks are really insightful!!!

Thanks to your video I got my 3200mhz 64GB kit running @ 4000

Very valuable info. I appreciate your time, effort and approach. Helped me learn and understand memory behavior loads more (pun intended). Thank you!

Oh so have missed this awesome 😎👍

Thanks for oc guide.

I downstepped my 2x16GB mushkin ddr4 with stock 4GHz after a first OC test with 4.26 GHz down to 3.733 and CL timings from 18 22 22 42 down to 16 19 19 36 with 1.45 V and I got the best TimeSpy benchmark result in 4K so far. Getting these sticks overclocked to 4.26 GHz was the reason why I had stuttering in games every 20 seconds. GPU is a 3080 and CPU is a i7 10700KF @ 5GHz.

Will this guide work with 4 sticks? I have 2 sets of ddr4 rated at 4000 mhz. Either set will get me 4000mhz via XMP 3 selection. When i try to use all 4 sticks, it crashes the bios which defaults to 2600 mhz. The best i get with all four sticks is 3600 mhz. 'I'm' hoping your tweaks will take me to at least 3800 mhz.

@Born_Stellar

Жыл бұрын

4 sticks is twice as hard on the memory controller on the cpu.

Is the memtest86 also right tool to test memory while oc?

This is showing gear 2. I went for 3466 CL12 Gear 1 instead of 4000 CL16 Gear 2 because the memory controller in gear 1 is 1733MHz instead of 1000MHz. At gear 2 you would have to get your ddr4 to 6933MHz to get the same speed for your memory controller and that just isn’t going to happen. Plus the lower latency makes up for some of the loss in memory bandwidth. You can use this same technique with AMD Ryzen processors. The memory controller speed matters.

I encourage anyone willing to tinker to start from base timings not xmp. Using xmp gives you a high frequency baseline but its generally easier to tweak one thing at a time after achieving tight timings. Then from there boosting the frequency and altering the timings and voltages post to get higher frequencies. Thats what I like to do to streamline the process. But, thats just my opinion, dont take it for gospel.
