Product Information

As you step up in frequency and you can't seem to get DRAM Calculator values to work you can revert to what did work (from the previous step) starting with ProcODT, RTT, and CAD values. Assuming your chips are the same kind of Samsung as mine (based on version) it may exhibit similar properties to mine. In particular this is a good way to get what your motherboard decides to use by default for termination, cad bus, and misc values. This provides a base point where you know what values already work. I don't know. I haven't been able to confirm what that version really "is" from anywhere. I suspect it's just lower grade b-die.

The small form factor makes it ideal for smaller cases or any system where internal space is at a premium. So which is technically the better memory? I know the Z is supposed to be for AMD and people have good results with it. I've been OK with the B though I do get some strange stuttering sometimes but I'm not sure if that's due to the ram or not. Hi thanks for the reply, did not get anywhere with dram calc and got so tired to reset cmos every time so funny enough I tried your values and that was the best I could get I think for 3600Mhz on my Tomahawk Max board.The thing is, I think the B version I have is Samsung though it doesn't specify B die. The Manufacturer says Samsung and it just says 8gb/1 die but I'm assuming that's a Samsung B Die. I can't find anything recent although the motherboards seemed to be either MSI or Gigabyte boards (but, people were only reporting around 2933 mhz). Now, I'm not sure if I should go for the same model I have and risk getting a Hynix version or go for the Z which is always B die. I am very sorry for my post being so long and please excuse me if my English is not perfect, but it's not my native language. Generally I've had good results when enabling GearDown and disabling PowerDown with both my LPX and RGB kits and Zen+ and Zen2 CPU's. Keeping DRAM voltage near 1.35v seemed to be a sweet spot as using higher voltages didn't seem to have any improving effects for my RGB kit and keeping SOC between 1.0v and 1.1v.

I am wondering if anyone has this exact RAM/memory and if they have a Ryzen system, what speed they are able to get?Why do you run WinRAR benchmark that takes about 30 seconds to complete when you have 1 second resolution. You don't actually expect DDR4-3200 compared to DDR4-2400 to give you a 3.3% boost on overall system performance when your previous benchmark showed that the gain in pure memory bandwidth is around 10-15% and the latency boost is around 3%. I don't know if it matters about BIOS version or motherboard manufacturer but I was planning on considering a Ryzen build. Glad to report that the system did POST and everything seems to be working smoothly. Did some mem testing for around 10 minutes and it didnt crash, so I guess the pc is usable for now. I will stress test and benchmark tomorrow, too tired now. In fact... Now on my same board with Ryzen 5 2600X I get 3200 14 14 14 34 timings stable. On MSI boards in the BIOS, they have a list of frequency and timings you can TRY and that one also works. So I can run that or 16 18 18 36 no problem. CAS 14 settings is faster a bit but so far only in RAM benchmarks. Not in anything else. I specifically want the samsung b-die version (the Vengeance cost ~170€ while others ram modules like G skill Flare X or other modules with samsung b-die chip usually costs 200€+).
